Re: Discussion: Do you consider yourself to be an artist?
I missed the whole thing about art having to be free to be art. Never heard that. In fact I came to the opposite conclusion that as far as society, art is what sells. In fact I scrawled it across a chalkboard in big letters one time when the professor was out. ;) I hated that idea that I had to sell things to be an artist.… -
Re: I spy a cake! Happy birthday milla!
It's bloody cold here - wish I was there Thanks for the birthday wishes guys! BoBo: I've kind of dropped off the art wagon lately. I never got my head around the 'state-of-the-art' processes, so I'm a bit stuck in the old school style of things. The past couple of years has been a series of very long working weeks, house… -
Re: What to do? (Long and Rambling)
In general though I really dont' have a management temperment, and manager in the game industry almost always fal into the same sort of Dilbert Priciple where they are promoted up past their core competancy, and I don't want that deer in headlights look when the supervisor confronts me with the fact one fo my underlings un… -
Re: Hello. Polycounters. Looking for a website critque :)
I've yet to gain a job myself, but in the various interviews I've had, It's nice to be able to show that you can do "last-gen" (PS2/Xbox) work, in that you can show how well you can paint textures and understand lighting etc on a fundamental level. However, employers are looking for current-gen (PS3/360) art, so I would… -

Re: How to split the UV of a complex mechanical or character 3D model?
Just unwrap everything. For hard surface this is really fast todo. Important parts need more love. But i would go with a fast pass for everything. And have in mind if its for a game only the lowpoly needs uvs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7g7fcmigx8 -

Re: What is the consensus on 3DConnexion hardware?
Also look for any action requiring you to hold down a mouse button while dragging (like most 3d software do for moving verts or objects) and try to get rid of it. Blender has a very clever legacy input scheme (quite unusual for people not familiar with oldschool command-centric CAD) revolving around tapping a key to… -

Its definitly worth spending a fair share in presentation, it can bring your piece from average to fantastic Its best if you look at how other industries do this, the graphic design and mostly… -
Re: Studio lighting in Unreal
I see. In my opinion sometimes less more is with this kind of presentations (less distraction from car). I would look at some car presentation videos for reference. Currently some cuts seem flickering (during fast transitions screen lights up for a frame, e.g. around 0:53, seats to back of car), others seem…
