Re: Hardsurface artists: The world famous Maya vs 3ds max conflict in a diffrent way...
Yup, except it doesn't work at all like what we are talking about here. The functionality is here on paper but no, it's nowhere near equivalent. Simple test is to show a smooth, non destructive stack setup to pro technical artist versed in Maya and see their face and look of disbelief. I mean, really, I'm not making this… -

Re: GDC 2015: Next Gen Pipelines Presentation
Yeah, like Mike said. Right now we use the default auto uv stuff, which has a ton of shells. It doesn't really matter to some extent since the textures are baked and auto generated from tiling materials, but they're not ship ready. Because we lose a lot of resolution in the little shells and get more seams than we would… -
Re: Car Model Critique Needed!!
headlight area is fucked, same with the boot lines. You know it doesnt look right, because a quick look at a photo would tell you this. Concentrate on getting a smooth accurate shell first, worry about the details later. Your topology is mostly correct, but also sloppy. Just because youre smoothing it doesent mean you can… -
Re: Critique my work please
Oooon the other hand. . . don't make it too big either, or people are gonna get pissed . . . I would try to keep imgs under 3000 px wide, but anyway I'll stop picking on you now. As far as your work, I'm not a character person, so I prolly don't have too much useful to say haha. However I do see some issues with your… -
Re: Killed my computer
Yeah, accualy jkmakowka has a good point. At one point my system just started acting funny. Funny spots on the screen. Sluggish responce time. Then it totaly locked up, i started smelling burning electrical parts so I freaked out and turned off my computer immediately. I sniffed around the exaust area but for some reason I… -
Re: I can navigate in Maya...Need UV & SKIN Tutorials

3DRubicon.com
I don't usually plug products but this one has lots of potential. A friend of mine just launched a really cool page that is being described as "CGHub on steroids". Signing up allows you to reserve your username and the 1st wave of artists will unlock Founding Member privileges. Eventually it looks like a cool marketplace… -
Gumroad, Cubebrush, ArtStation Marketplace or all three?
To either sellers or buyers, what do you recommend is the best place to buy/sell digital art assets? I used to buy from Gumroad but now I am noticing a lot of artists are posting their products on ArtStation too. It looks like right now if I just want to sell gumroad is cheaper until ArtStation releases the store websites… -
Getting into lowpoly/midpoly models. Need an advice
Hello, I used cryengine 3 years ago and that time people used to bake details from a highpoly model. Now I'm thinking about getting in to unreal engine and selling assets on the marketplace. My question is, do artist really use midpoly models instead baking details from a highpoly model nowadays? I have look at this…
