I made the lantern asset! Also for the lighting one critique i got was to make sure all of my albedos look good together, which would help the lighting look good too. Im probably biased but I think that my base colors do look nice and flow well together for the most part, I had to change some of the values of the fish sign…
I'd personally say Zbrush but I am biased. What is your goal there? Do you have the time to learn the quirky and unique Zbrush interface and "tradition?" How involved you would be with freehand organic (and now hard surface) sculpting as opposed to controlled (box?) modeling? Do you need to have low polycount on your…
@Tits, Thanks for checking on those. The strange silhouette artifact is a known issue when sharpening is combined with supersampling on output. There is also some biasing disabled on ATI cards due to ATI cards not playing nicely with OpenGL. That could be the source of the blurry texture effect you are experiencing. Just…
I'm in the process of putting together the tutorial material. I would rather do it right than rush it out the door, Honestly creative sheep is right i'm insane releasing this without a proper explanation video, but hell people don't seem to care and are buying it anyway. [ame]…
Looking pretty sweet, though I am a tad biased since this is easily my favorite sniper rifle to date :) But I would say, that the scope comes way to far back and the forward support pieces for the stock are too short, which help bring the check rest forward, making the long scope really reach back to far. The end of the…
Go for medicine and finish it. If you hate it you'll quit and carry a valuable degree and knowledge into whatever you choose to do next. If you don't you'll have a job with much more stability and a much higher salary and you can do art on the side. If you don't do it at all then that world is forever closed to you. Give…
Aren't many pirates bug-eyed when drawn cartoony? At least as "bug-eyed" as that guy: oh noes! it's teh wankster pirate! Back on topic, it looks a badass sidescroller to me. But I love 2d side scrollers more than my own mother so I may be a little biased. I am gettin a little sick of the ninja-pirate thing just like…
For the sake of completeness, Dekard's source is w3schools.com. It is based on their website which is quite frequented as being a reference in web design. Anyway, as they state, those stats are biased on their target audience: As personal opinion I feel right to think the same: those who work in CG field might have higher…
I think all the good music (I guess more "underground" stuff) isn't all that "sellable" because it seems to me its too advanced for some of the population out there. Seems like labels now a days must spoon feed these dumbass's "new" copycat bands constantly or the world will end or something. If you wall want to listen to…
That’s exciting, lots of options for research and development in real-time rendering. So many in fact that it may be difficult to recommend anything specific except what my own biases would suggest ;) I’m really intrigued by augmented reality, since we use it at my work, and there’s a lot of hardware development happening…
