I was hoping that you would be able to see the red example does not curve nicely, it has a flat section where the 2 extra edges are. So really, what I am saying is, use a more detailed base mesh. Right now your problem is that you don't understand how to make the model smooth AND have detail. For example, the front bumper…
I think you guys are reading too much into the 'what body?' comment. maybe I'm wrong but I thought it was just the whole thing where if someone tells you to STFU about something and you bring it up you reply ' what ___?' example: you have a dead body that you need to get rid of, but you don't want anyone to know you have…
My bad if I sounded black/white; I know that many game-art answers seem to fall back to 'it depends'. It's just that "a few" and even 50% are all so relative that it's hard to tell what is meant. Depending on the artist/engine/whatever 'a few' could be 16 tris or 1600. There's another example in the pdf where it's used on…
Blue shadows come from ambient light bounced by the sky. Might look odd in this interior but give it a try. Odd example but it shows somewhat the hue-shift for shading. Notice the brown walls shadow color shifts toward purple. http://zs.ffshrine.org/album/link-to-the-past/screens/14.gif Half decent trick for cheap cop-out…
Ugh...very busy with non-3D projects recently. Still looking for employment, primarily. Thankfully enough, I have found the time to work on my Flash 3D model viewer. Here's the current progress. And here's a link to a functional example. Click Here For Example I finally have my own webhosting now, as well. So no worries on…
I'm still confused why "That's how the original maps were" is reason enough to keep your maps uninterestingly too dark? Just because the original maps were that way doesn't mean you shouldn't improve on the basic concepts of design, especially if you are modding them. The entire idea is to take the original concept and…
I have a question and it would be great if some senior artists in the industry could show me how they work and their opinion on this subject. For example, if you get a concept art of a control room from the 80s with many props like radio, computer, control panel, etc. Are you gonna do research and reference exactly the…
@LeoNexus6 Glad you found it useful :) @Sarp Cool that you're joining the challenge. I think each of the press designs has quite the distinct personality, so I'm not sure how successful one can mix parts without creating something new entirely. But hey, if that's the goal you're setting yourself, I'm curious to see what…
My dad sent this to me in an email. Our family has had a rough history with dealing with all the BS of our medical system (my mother has MS, and so we've seen plenty of junk medical science in our day). Of course this example is a little exaggerated, but honestly it isn't by much. Just wanted to start up a conversation…
@NikhilR , I'm repeating myself, but I think you got your steps wrong. If goal is "improve work/life conditions for people in the industry", then steps need to be: 1. get in industry (which means toe the line and make friends) 2. gain influence within the industry (which means make more friends and do good work) 3. become…
