Having a fast GPU is important for lots of tasks, especially GPU accelerated ones and working within game engines, since performance is lower in editor. But also, if you are just modeling/texturing and want to put together a solid portfolio, a low end gaming GPU like the 750ti is fine. I know Substance painter in…
Yeah, the retrieval fees aren't great, but it's a pretty great last ditch backup solution (if both your house and your workplace burn down at the same time or whatever, and the data is super important, you can at least get it back rater than it being lost in the abyss). I think there are a few tools that automate the…
art direction and attention to detail has been on the decline ever since it's been cool to fire senior developers with decades of accumulated knowledge in order to outsource and save money. Our tools are more advanced than ever before, but tools are still tools, and require the skill to use them effectively. This is…
@jdvi - I give turning the shadows off a go see what I think, but I have a feeling it looked a little odd. I will be adding moss and flowers to break up the repition of the grass so hopefully this will help. Yer I have seen the Wenda tutorials but I am planning on getting a sci-fi base in there and adding a lot more to the…

I am pretty certain there are Matcaps for zbrush that can replicate this style and if not wouldnt be crazy complex to replicate. But yeah its important to test things early in as close as final shading as possible. These days you could possibly also just send a slightly lower subdiv level into your engine of choice and…
It's been a while! I think I might have found a light and post-process setup that I like. Saturating the colours while decreasing the overall contrasts did the trick! Although I'll have to be careful with the saturation of the textures I import. The obligatory lavender flowers every diorama seems to have might have gotten…
Well to begin with it would say that the art style is not coherent with any of the character. Jess have human proportion with a football Arnold! head. The small flower girl have human proportion and relatively normal head but appears super small, so she can't be human. or else jess is an adulte and the flower girl is…
