Personally I write down a checklist in the morning or the night before. For example, if I'm studying I would write down milestones or specifically what I need to study. As well as chores and other non-art stuff. Whenever I'm working on my art I do it in silence first so I know what I'm trying to do. I only put on…
Beginner here, confused about Quixel megascans textures. Particularly the texel density and scan area values they provide. I take it that to display the textures in their intended scale we should follow the listed values. For example, Brick Wall (brick_wall_wgukbfj_1k)…
This is awesome, love the diorama, and the direction you're inspired by. I searched this game and found what I hope is a representative image: This game looks really cool, great inspiration! It's important to note that this uses lighting and post-processing to change the "look" of the assets. I think they are using PBR…

I have to say the biggest thing as a community I ever see as far as getting people to budge/ work together has been hard competition. As pixelmasher said On the opposite side of the coin we see alot of artist who act like they dont know there bad ass, post a few beauty renders, and then every kid from hobbiest to AI post…
I think one of the main atributes which seperate computer-games from other kinds of media is the interactivity. No matter what kind of game you play, you always have choices to take and interactions available. For the field of story-telling I'm missing the fact, that my interactions in the virtual world really reflect on…
So I took a look at your substance. From my perspective it seems that your are a bit confused by the resolution system of Designer. It seems you want to output textures at 4K, but Designer works in your ram to be efficient. When I opened you graph my computer consumed a total amount of 15gb of ram. This can result is some…
Curious how this might work in a game engine, with the sorting limitations. Can't afford depth peeling in most games for example. But loving the exploration, this is where discoveries are made!
We have a whole section just on Animation, worth it to dig around in there. This for example has a bunch of great reference and workflow ideas: https://polycount.com/discussion/158862/animation-reference-and-inspiration
