Re: experienced zbrush and or maya users.
uh mostly just actually texturing and sculpting in zbrush. mostly i just need tips and another pair of eyes to help me see things that i need to look for. following tutorials are great and you can learn heaps from them but so far from my experience through school i have noticed it's easier and faster for me to learn when i… -
Re: Good game art colleges?
Hi Greg! I tried hard to teach well, but it wasn't easy. Lots of people told me the first year teaching is always the hardest. So true. Hope I didn't screw it up too much for you guys, haha. Valentin, pretty much yes I learned on my own. I had some really good instructors in junior college, and later at RISD, but I think… -
Re: Demoralised by life drawing.
Enough has probably been posted but heres my two cents... Your job obviously isnt to draw concept art so dont weight your self down with expectations of creating aestitically minded stuff. Rather use the experience to explore the fundamentals solely for your benefit. Choose one of the basics like line weight, shape, or… -
Re: 3D artist. What does it take?
I took a look at your portfolio. Here is some advice before you invest a good deal of time going down the 3D path. Explore learning ZBrush. You might find digital sculpting easier to grasp then 3d modeling. You'll need to learn basic box modeling but below is an example image of a simple 3D base mesh and what can be done… -
Re: Sketchbook: bounchfx
ebagg: Thanks man, I appreciate it. I'll give the remeshAll-ing a go next time, it sounds like tat would help. my biggest problem is the fact that there's pole's / 5 sided's, so hopefully that reduces those. quick color study tonight, been very unproductive compared to how I should be. I'm not very happy with this nor the… -

Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
Thing is, if your work is primarily for the digital medium... when a MASSIVE amount of the users only use TN panels... its nice yes, but to see things that they wont see is a bit excessive. Not that its bad its just ...unless its for print its kind of pointless, and from what ive heard dont print use sRGB as their profile… -
Re: Low Poly - Rus Warrior
if by "that painterly feel" you mean how the miniature is painted, i'd simply suggest paint it... just like you would a digital painting, basically. i'd start by dropping in the base colors, like you have, painting the darks and lights of the forms (softlight) (lit from above), above them. then, overlay some textures,… -
Re: Attitudes about games
games are a medium, plain and simple. painting is not art, there are paintings that are. that guy at wal mart with the air brush is painting, but he is not making art. games have the opportunity to be an all encompassing artform. They are audible, visual, 3d,2d, things move around, you can interact with whats happening.… -
Re: Abandoned places in the world.
I'd certainly appreciate some more threads on this kind of topic. I'm starting to work harder on all aspects of texturing, and I'd be happier producing a model with a realistic texture, as opposed to a 'cool' one. Sometimes, definitely in games, realism - actual realism - isn't as graphically or aesthetically pleasing, so…
