Re: Expertise and experience
Specialists are people who haven't branched out and start mastering other things... yet... I think the end goal for most people to be really good at a variety of things. They may disagree now Even though they have only been doing bla bla bla for 2 years and will be working for the next 40+ years. Generally as peoples… -
Re: Questions all about Materials/Textures.
You will get no useful answers regardless of how wise anyone responding is because you will not understand them. To understand them, you have to do them and you can't start with 30km2 GTA / Arma scope.

Re: Weekly Substance Challenge - Week 1
This is my start so far. I'm still chipping away at the form/normal map. I'll work on the diffuse once I've got that looking solid. Tzur_H : a good way to get damage on edges is the slope blur node.

Re: Should I upgrade to Windows 8.1? Currently on Windows 7.

Re: Sketchbook: Callesw
thanks a lot guys! Makes me glad to hear :) JamesHodgart; I think the best way is to start just drawing a lot of stuff that you just enjoy drawing, to keep going and feeling that what you do is getting somewhere. Then, it's nice to start studying the perspective from 1 point, to 2 point and 3 point perspective. Just take… -

Re: Monthly Art Challenge June 2016 (41)
Hey guys I'm glad I stumbled onto this forum and would like to throw my hat in the ring as well =) decided to start with the concept pieces from Darksiders 2 and wanted to use 2 of the props to make a start to a scene.
