Normally, but nowhere near as much as you explain in your post. The mistake most people do when starting a podcast for a community such as this is overthinking it. Don't. Just get 3 members on Skype (start with 3 members who find themselves online at the same time normally), get a list of 5 things to talk about, and hit…
Yeh this can happen. Go on the internet look at work and get some more references and start over yet again. I bet you can get it right in 3 tries. Try to look early at your work and see if you are on the right track. yes? save. no? start over. or start over from last good save and evaluate if you have been on the right…
Hey Dark, welcome to the Black & Green machine - Polycount. It's good to see a fellow Ontarioian (although I now live in BC). Are you looking to do character art? Environments? Animation? You mentioned Character Studio which leads me to believe you're interested in character modeling. Max, Maya & ZBrush are all good…
Hi! could I get some help on how to approach this?

Hey there everyone. So this is something I've been meaning to do for a long time, but haven't really had the gumption to get around to. I've had a number of projects stop and start because of my indecision on how to approach getting a job at my studio of choice. Recently it sort of dawned on me thanks to a number of my…
It's been a little while since I've actually sat down and started an environment. Moving, new job, general mental exhaustion. Oh and time to play games finally. But now I'm back with a new project! I'm working on two personal projects currently. However, this one has been faster for me to get started on and work on. I tend…
When i first started learning 3D I had bought a program called Silo3d for about $100 and it was just a subdivision modeler with some other features (i think unwrapping if i remember) and it was so fun to use.
