Re: Is there any online education for 3D art that is recognized for potential employers?
Ey Adam! In my experience, sometimes it's a matter of luck that you get to "fly a self-taught artist" to work on a company. It happened to me and it could happen to you. That just happens by hard work on your skills and move your work around forums, be involve in the community and go to events so people can put a face on… -
Re: Third year uni portfolio - feedback/advice?
Hey there, first off I recommend checking out this post by Jon Jones, it mainly covers some do's and don't's of portfolio sites. Its a good read. Secondly, I would have a resume, even if it is just a PDF with whatever experience and skills you have. A few things you can do yourself is ask yourself what type of job are you… -
Re: Sudden need to get pro. But how.
Hmm, I'm gonna disagree a bit. While your work isn't bad, learning to create game ready characters at a high level is definitely going to take longer than 4 months. Especially if you are looking to create actual folio ready high quality character art. I think if you could do ONE solid piece in that time, you would be doing… -
Re: Weapon with tons of accessories
You have to ask the client themselves on what the polycount and what type of maps can be used since it depends on their engine and the scale of the game will be. Don't be afraid to ask questions such as these to them. Its pretty vague if they just say "for tablets". But just in case, 3000-3500 tri is a good number for a… -
Re: Autodesk buying out Scaleform
I highly doubt a bunch of their software will get a huge UI overhaul with Scaleform. Autodesk wants a monopoly. They want to control a ton of middleware for games, the same way they control a ton of middleware for movies. Autodesk already owns other game-related middleware (like Beast and Kynapse), and that hasn't trickled… -
Re: Character Creation Timeframes?
I think a good rate for medium res models is about 10 days, and I think that's probably common on games with a lot of assets. I thought I remembered hearing that the AC models took about that long too. Higher res models seen in single player games I believe can take anywhere from 10-30 days. Depends on how much the details… -
Re: Mass Effect 3 M-13 Raptor - Critique Requested
For your question about making the LP all one mesh, its completely up to the artist and how they feel the piece should work, cost/benefit, etc. Using multiple objects to build the LP will make UV-ing SO much easier, as well as allow you to reuse sections elsewhere. Making one or mainly one object, will make seamless… -
Re: Character Topology crap
the main thing that strikes me it that your polyflow itself is quite unequal. As a matter of texturing, it is better that all your poly (on a same surface, like her boobs here, her face) should be around the same size. That could cause some problems with : 1 Texturing : When you'll want to texture, you' ll have to keep in… -
Re: Super Battlelands
Loved Advance Wars, one of my all time favorite Handheld games, progress is looking good so far, with current gen tech however I feel like you might be able to get away with making more things detailed. As far as style between different teams/colors, you may want to explore different tech differences, or perhaps different… -
Re: Photogrammetry Thread
I have used Photoscan for a while now. Works great for me. I tried making a tree trunk, which turned out barely decent, i only got 20 photos (you should always get around 40-50 for small/medium objects, and 100+ for big ones) because my memory card ran out :/ *no displacement though, which would really help it. Going out…
