Really great photography. Most reference photographers also include a thumbnail gallery to show what's in the pack. Would it be possible to get the raw files or at least the camera meta data for camera matching calibration? Knowing the sensor size and focal length for each photo is really helpful for setting up the camera…
Malcolm you should be good to go now. For new members we have some info in the Information sticky (http://polycount.com/discussion/63361/information-about-polycount-new-member-introductions/p1), We don't expect long-time members to know about this though, as that thread has evolved over time. Just good to know about. The…
Hello, I've already posted that in an existing thread, but haven't got any answers unfortunately, so I'll try it with a new thread. There must be somebody in this forum that can answer at least some of these questions. Very much appreciated. I'm thinking of buying a graphics tablet for texturing and sculpting and probably…
Lots of good advice so far. It's probably worth using all this feedback to create a few samples then compare the results, from a typical player's point of view, to see what works and what doesn't. Though it's also worth asking: How sharp is sharp enough and how good is good enough? As an example: Here's three cylinders…
Hi Team! Just FYI, some of us are still having problems posting images. e.g. my friend Wungun and I both managed in last year's contest okay, but this year it's a range of issues. If I try to drag-n-drop images into my thread, the pic merely opens in another tab. Or if I try to post links from most image sights, the only…

i think you are in a good position to look through some posted artwork that is similar to this. Look at what you might be able to add from them, such as darkening areas between the elements or grime ect,ect, to the materials. There is a recently posted blade and shield you can reference to push this further if you wanted…
Having problems posting to the boards? Weve had one consistent issue because of the way the new boards work. If you try to quick reply, reply or post to the boards and instead receive a "not a valid host" error, you must allow an exception for the boards in your ad blocking, privacy or firewall software. The new Polycount…
Denial is a very human reaction. "Only trash gets replaced, woun't happen to me." Everyone says so at first. Every single one of you. But even so, how many hi-end artsy unique seniors are out there and how many such positions are offered? Let's be real, most 3D jobs don't require any creative skill. It's all about…
