For me the standout areas that make a good environment artist is telling a story and how you capture that story through a camera. Modelling, texturing, lighting etc. are expected core foundations for an environment artist, some artists excel more in specific areas (take lighting for example) and sometimes end up pursuing a…
Sorry about missing out on your question. Regarding this, our FAQ covers it: https://megascans.se/faq#Studio What’s the Studio License? If you are a published studio residing at a single location looking to create and release a commercial project such as a game, film or other commercial media, this is the license for you.…
This topic brings up some great points that many people new to the industry don't realise. Outsourcing is very much a reality but its something you really need to question when applying to any studio as its completely different everywhere you go. I personally was new to the industry a few years back and didn't ask many…
Ever thought about living with your parents and just teach yourself for 6 months? You seem determined and self motivated enough. Just pick a route like environment or characters and just go full blast on it and see where you're at in 6 months. Pretty sure you can convince your parents to fork up a few dollars for some…
I am taking my final major class and I am starting my indep study project this summer to get a bit of a jump on it. HOPEFULLY I will get the project 80% done [that is my goal, realistic or not] before I meet with my prof for the first class.

If you want better advice…
Hello, I think you are making a good start. I can see that you are challenging yourself with this piece that has several interesting forms. The overall shape of the body is working proportionally I think. The long finger spikes might cause someone to say the arms are feeling long but It looks to me that you've put some…

Here's my take on this; if you're working in a field where alot of people which are not professional can ''imitate'' or simulate ''professionnal'' work,…
You have a good sense for mass painting. Mostof your drawings give a good sense of energy and don't feel dead. However, when it gets to more realistic paintings, such as the man with the shocked expression, you used too many lines in the face, and outlined the eyes too harsh. Kind of surprising actually, because you stuck…
Personally I feel like "talent" has no meaningful effect on it. Recent research says genetic markers account for less than 3% of differences in intellect between people. same study says that achievement is influenced by genetics less than .5%, which means it's basically all work and environment.…
