Of course, they are more predestined to fall into this idea, but "real" islam will not support the idea of lethal violence and reward for such. I don't think you can compare "them" with your traditional western powerpeople because the motivation is an absolut different and even more dangerous one. The idea/movement growing…
Yup. The stock market is thoroughly detached from economic reality in a lot of ways, and it deserves plenty of blame and scorn for it, but if you do understand how its own weird little reality works you can make some pretty sweet cash. Unless they're really, abysmally bad to the point that it gets widespread publicity,…
[ QUOTE ] Do you really think that you have that much to do with your underlings progress? [/ QUOTE ] Perhaps you'll change your mind when you usher some artists into the business. I know at least 4 (1 of them a polycounter) artists who started working with me in the last 2 years who have now secured their first gigs in…
For being an avid poker player you lack the tough leathery skin. Sure 3D was a little out of line but so are 99.99% of the rest of the net. Why obsess over it, track people down and try to character assassinate them? Thats just nutty, get over it move on... Since we can't see what was said prior we have no clue what you…
this is the most ingorant thing ive seen in a while. we are obligated to help them, solely because we constatly steal their natural resources. which in turn creates poverty. which causes wars. and starvation. and stops the prevention of famine like aids and ebola. does people serously think that the african people are…
Welcome to the forum! Well let's see, I've just turned 41 this past January and been struggling with my decision to purse 3D art. Like @Spag_Eddy I gave up my job as a print graphic designer to pursue a profession in 3d environment modeling. It's been a hard road so far as I've built models, hated the model did another…

I wanna be someone, do something, not just be "an artist" but "the artist" * Paint more 2D * Became a better handpainter * Learn Substance and pbr to increase my skill pool * Makes more contact, more friends !

This is probably more a matter of style -- and thus totally subjective -- but I feel like your face looks a little mroe like a coyote than a wolf. It has a sly, clever appearance, which seems a little at odds with the character the body has. The massive hulking body feels to me like it deserves a wider, more majestic…
There's no single cause for all these closures. There's many. I don't believe it's all "greedy execs". Yes maybe in some cases, but we as industry also need some introspective and look what going wrong right at the studio floor. Especially in games we still have a lot to learn and we can start right where we are. There's…
Thanks Robeomega. I'm not sure if my texture really deserves a tutorial though. It's mostly a grass texture from CGTextures that I painted on and mixed in my mud sculpt. When I Offset my texture to tile it, I make sure it's on a duplicated layer with the image, so instead of clone stamping out the seams, I mask them out…
