What I did when I was dieting was park my exercise bike infront of my computer then play a game I could use a gamepad on as I cycled (it was Final Fantasy 8 at the time). It takes your mind off the cycling and sometimes there are the "I'll just do this little bit before I stop" moments, that can keep happening, so you end…
thanks for the reply Dracula. I've adjusted the musculature a little, and I do indeed intend on giving him a pair of glasses, I will add those last though I think. Here's an update... normals baked, and applied without retouching yet. This was my first ever retopo so if anyone is facepalming at how bad it is then that's my…
Thank you both for the helpful critiques. It sure is great to have a fresh set of eyes to offer advice, especially when it is from fellow artists such as yourselves. I took a look at some of the work you guys have posted on these forums and I am very impressed. I am fairly new to these forums but I intend to post here…
ninjas: i agree, there is a lot of glossing over of unseemly characters. if you indeed do intend to make those character bios unsympathetic, then you've certainly succeeded at that. and nice work on the continuing bunny studies! the amended helmet designs are as interesting as i hoped they would be. i'm a big fan of the…
I'm not worried about Alias spam - I have an Alias alias (no pun intended) for my mailbox, which I gave them for the Alias mailing list, so if spam starts going to that email address I can just bit bucket it. The site won't accept *any* email address. "Please correct the following error(s): Please check if your e-mail is…

Long time lurker, first time posting. Any comments or critiques are welcome. Concept art: The Chicken Choker, Master Series 3000 This is intended to be a grenade launcher retro-fitted with a rubber chicken which shoots out sonic egg bombs. It would be the ideal weapon for combating zombie clowns... or any clowns really.…
Hi guys, Had 2 really good days working on this day and night. It's an 8x8km landscape I'm working on for a new landscape pack for UE4 Marketplace. Heightmap done in WM2 and textured in UE4. The lava is done in 3Ds MAX, flows at 3 different speeds based on vertex colors and has some heat shimmering around it. Can be placed…
Hey there, I was wondering how artists texture their high poly / high production assets not intended for game use. Do they unwrap thier high poly models and paint the textures in a software? Are material attributes handled with maps? Ex. A shiny spaceship with dirt and damages that doesn't reflect. Id love to see a…
Hello people, I've been set a project by fellow forum member teaandcigarettes to kick my skills into the next stage. He wants me to recreate this environment so I can learn a modular workflow along with a hi->low poly workflow. I intend it to be a portfolio piece if it turns out well enough. The environment is based on the…
