Re: Captain Nemo's office
I have seen your work before, just not seen the recent updates till now. I think it's looking like a cracking piece of work, if your texturing can match the concept and your modelling it'll be very impressive. I think you mentioned texturing was what you weren't so hot on, will be great practice though to get working on… -
Re: Should I stop working on my 3D skills?
I'm a student myself and I should definitely do some more drawing. I mostly do hard surface and props/environments. I think if you want to be a character artist you should have good drawing skills because of anatomy. It depends on what you're modeling. But 3D in itself is a complex skill, so to get better at it, start… -
Re: Ideas for research module?
realtime hair, cloth and fluid dynamics for proper vfx (explosions, smoke etc) would be interesting stuff. we see a lot of tech demos etc, but to actually implement a lot of that in a useful way in a real project with tons of characters on screen is usually a no no on current gen consoles. but again, to do this stuff you… -
Re: Has anyone moved from a commercial modeling app to Blender?
moved from Max to Blender and it was a great decision. - full 3D suite for making art which plummeted my interest for student versions of the competition. - Blender can be used in a pipeline as a glue program, works in a pipeline with Substance Painter/Designer, ZBrush, 3Dcoat, Akeytsu, Marmoset/UE4 etc - Community -… -
Re: Meet the Animators - Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone! My name is Amanda. I'm new to polycount. So happy to see there is an animation forum thats pretty active. I had a hard time finding on. Anyway I just graduated back in May with a bachelors degree and I am looking to improve my work and meet other animators. Below is my student reel. Right now I'm working on… -
Re: Character - Prototype 01
I don't think a Senior Cinematic Artist at Blizzard has anything to be ashamed of as to how long the modeling process has taken so far! The result is amazing so far, and the fact you think it has taken too long actually gives me some hope that no matter how good or fast at modeling you are, if you work at Blizzard or are a… -
Re: portfolios for university
Have you looked at University of Hertfordshire? I keep seeing their work from both LittleClaude and graduates pop up. It looks like a school where if you are super dedicated you'll have a ton of opportunities to make insanely awesome stuff with your classmates. If you're thinking of somewhere else, just make sure you pick… -
Re: Dumpster prop art - Old project but crit is welcomed
I'll second this as a Hallam student too. I'm a current third-year and the course has massively improved - personally I wish I was a first year now because the reshuffle has resulted in the first years getting taught the good stuff a lot earlier than they used to - which is definitely a good thing. Just be prepared for a… -
Re: Dominance War delayed until 2011.
that's a good idea, but it slightly discourages awesome people who might not finish their awesome pieces and a lot of students and aspiring 3d artists who are unsure if they'll finish from entering and then not really taking an active role in learning. I think Fred wanted to keep it free if possible. But I'd be down for 5… -
Re: [ZBrush] Trim Dynamic brush issue
Try resetting the zbrush UI. Likely you switched to an alternate UI by accident. I use the cheapest wacom bamboo tablet, by the way. Works fine for me. I've spent some time looking at the more expensive options, but I can't seem to find anything they offer that is appealing enough for the massive price difference. If I was…
