Please do NOT take my post as an arrogant bragging thing; I can't emphasize how much I want this to be helpful and not seen as bragging. With the disclaimer stated here, I'll continue. I'm 26, I've been coming to Polycount for about 14 years, really working on my 3D and texture skills for about 11, and as of last Friday I…
These are screenshots from the notes I make in onenote about my progress and I don't post them here as It might get too spammy. Anyway here are some past few updates. Tried the same gradient map thing on the last renders I took to check whether the details from back and side are sufficient.
Nice work; as mentioned it looks as though your trees are biased towards normal direction. Also, for my tastes, in all but the last set of shots, your fog colour is far too blue. You have the right idea, but unless you're going for something more stylized, you need to tone it back a notch or two.
Congrats Jesse! Glad to hear you found something. Too bad that you're sparated from your family; I know very well how it feels like considering that I've been living and studying abroad for the past 3 years. But hey, at least you can get completely wasted anytime you want!
Some good stuff, Brad! I would ditch that last shot of the guy jumping over the pit. It's easily your weakest piece, and leaves a bad taste in the viewers mouth at the end of your reel. It s just not as well polished as your other stuff. If you put up a syncsketch for it, id be happy to crit it more in depth.
Indeed it does. And hopefully if there was wrongdoing by activision the mw2 can get past their phalanx of lawyers and earn some kind of restitution. But no amount of mitigating circumstances or other examples of kotick being evil change the fact that a manager has to deal with insubordinate employees. If these IW guys…
Hey guys! Congratulations with all the awesome artwork you all delivered! It's been pretty crazy, since I started only last Friday and I've never digipainted before. So to say this contest has been an educational experience is a vast understatement. Link to WIP thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=138036
... I just don't understand this mindset. Heavy hitters take time (EXTREMELY valuable time) to drop into your threads over and over again, offering sage advice, and it's cast aside like an old boot. It's a shame to see potential wasted, but maybe it's you who isn't ready for Polycount. Best of Luck out there. It's gonna be…
Steamworks is nice. I'll try and make it. Only issue I have is I don't want to deal with skytrain in surrey after 10pm. It's as bad as walking along east hastings at night. So I am looking into alternatives since I have no car at the moment. Steamworks is right next to waterfront station so it's easy to find.
swampbug, thats a pretty cool idea... perhaps there could be a caste of servants that have no suits, forever serving those who do in a world no longer built for beings their size... love the last piece gauss, its especially nice how the clothing pattern is cut to lead your eyes to her bum, its very 'them'.
