Re: In need of interview advice
It sounds cliche but be yourself. If they are bringing you out to the studio for an onsite interview then you at least know they are really into you and dig your work. Don't fret and don't over prepare. I did my first on site interview about a year ago and it netted me my first full time job. I fretted a bunch and tried to… -

Re: WIP - Character - Assassin Creature
Wilex: I appreciate it, and finally here are the UVW's. So, I have the UVW's done. I showed my Uv's in max and in roadkill uv on the left.

Re: Where to go from here (Character artist career advice)

Re: Brink Dev Diary - Art direction & concept art - Now with added HD Video!
TL;DR version: It's all WIP! Don't worry, we totally agree about the gameplay stuff here. One of the key things about that demo which we wanted to fix back when it was done (May '09) is that the enemies/friends are really hard to distinguish. We've got a few different solutions to this already implemented and being tested… -
Re: King's Quest V - Merlin's House
I have to say that I was kind of excited about this scene, but you lost me on the way. :/ You were off to a really good start by making the thatch roof more interesting, for example, but somehow you seem to have lost interest in properly detailing and texturing the closeup of the hut.

Using all/none/or some tools from whichever toolset makes for ultimate flexibility. But Max's unwrap tools have gotten a lot…
