Re: Urgent advice
While i was looking for a job i always made time to go for a 2hr walk, excercise, go to a museum, read a book and then do a steady 6 to 10 hr load of work. I can't emphasize how important it was for me to find a little freedom to let my brain breath and soak in some culture. This allows for more inspiration, since your… -
Re: Tesla gun PBR
Man, I love seeing updates on this. You potentially have a very awesome piece; it just needs to be pushed a little further! Some suggestions: - Start picking out different metals on the interior bits and the nozzles at the end of the barrel. Brass, copper, gold, etc. It will help break up the swath of gold. - The wood… -
Re: Art institute of chicago E portfolio critique - WIP
SAIC is a great art school, but it's an art school. They have a reputation for fine arts; I'm not saying this is a bad thing (I got a BFA and put on some fulfilling exhibitions my senior year and very much enjoy art museums) but I'm not sure they'll know what to do with a portfolio of gray Colt 1911s and sci-fi blenders. I… -
Re: paper sculpture street art project
wow thanks a lot guys! @conte - creation process is pretty straightforward - i used pepakura to unfold the model and create a paper template, printed it out on a large scale printer (36in x 36 in), cut it out from cardboard (i used a 2-ply museum board), and use a glue gun to glue it all together. then i gave it a coat of… -
Re: Recoiless Automatic Shotgun
The real problem with this weapon is range. They don't really go into it in the video, but a guy with a sight and a rifle is always going to win that fight. The shotgun would be good for urban combat, and anything involving close quarters gun fights against soft targets. However our military specifically works to avoid… -
Number of texture/trimsheets for a level?
I am trying to make a level in Natural History Museum in London, like the image below, And I am not sure how many texture sets would be suitable for this kind of architecture - I am only making this hall, only the architecture but I want it to be optimised to be put in a game. I'm planning to make it mostly trimsheets, but… -
Re: Spending too much time creating?
I'm doing the same thing all the time. Year ago I got my first job and since then after work I spent time doing and learning new things and I like it, seriously. I think it's normal for people like us. You need to know that sometimes it's good to take a break from this, because that can turn bad on you if you will spend… -
Re: [WIP] Flak 88
It's been a while, the LP unwrap for this took a lot longer than I had hoped for and other school work got in the way. I'm trying to find ways to bring more color into it but the flak is really just one color. I'm trying to decide how grungy I want it to be, all of the reference pictures I have are from museums which have… -
Re: Alien WIP
Cool concept, off to a good start. Crits: - I think you can push the shape/form quite a bit before you jump into the smaller sculpting details. - The goat legs suffer from a classic misconception about how those types of legs work. Even if its an alien it needs to be physically possible in some way. Dig up some ref. Those… -
Sketchbook: Mason Wallace
Hello, I just joined the forum for a bit of guidance in level design. I wish to create a map for Counter-Strike : Global Offensive, hostage mode. I would rather be an environmental artist, but I want people to actually play the map, and if the game-play is terrible, it won't be successful. Guess I'll need to list some…
