Hi all, I'm new here at polycount, and I hope I can learn a lot here. I'm in my last (3rd) year Digital Arts & Entertainment - Game Development where I learned modeling (high and low poly), but also working with editors such as UDK and programming. Most of the time, I create environment art. You can see most of it on my…
Hey so I'm working a sort of last minute christmas present for my parents. It's a digital art piece that I'm going to get printed and framed. So I'm wondering where to get that done. All I know is that deviantart has a service. But I don't know if you can get anything you post to be printed. Are there any other services…
So I am primarily a 3d artist, but ive been kicking myself for not putting in the effort to try to learn digital painting, so i figured i'd reach way beyond my grasp, and make this. its an ancient elite warrior design (halo series) Its not professional, and its not my area of expertise by any means, but there's no sense in…

Or perhaps are you planning…

Specifically, I'd like to know how understandable the concept is and if there is any way I could improve on the design. Also…
I want to become a character designer and I'd like to learn how to model in 3D. I am getting the hang of sculpting in Zbrush and am using Digital tutors as a guide. I hear 3ds is easier for modeling but I am more familiar with Maya. I'm still a a novice modeler and am willing to learn 3ds Max too. So which is better for…
In case you missed it, Wacom has a new doodling tool for you. It's name is Inkling and its a traditional pen that writes on paper, but has some magical technology inside that also records your movements. This allows you to import your drawings and notes into a digital format without the need of scanning your actual…
I am in the process of making a new digital portfolio and I wanted to have a standard setup of lighting and backdrops for my models. When you render out a turnaround, what color backdrop do you use? Do you feel black is too dark? Is white to bright? Do you like using color lights? Pedestals. Should the character / model…
