Re: The TF2 Polishing Project.
20 minutes huh? I have 10 years industry experience as a modeler and I can tell you your estimate is off. Why don't you integrate their fixes then? I don't ask that in a snarky way, but in an honest way. Why don't you? A reason people are posting in here is really more of a reality check. Over the years there have been… -

Re: ZEITGEIST: Moving Forward.
http://www.geekologie.com/2007/08/wolds_first_automated_restaura.php That day won't come if you don't work for it Bigjohn. You don't need money "to say that Product-X made by Company-X is better", it would be obvious when you use it and compare them together.

Re: Crysis demo
[ QUOTE ] The enemies start shooting at you from such a distance that most of the time you're fighting 10-pixel tall characters. Unsatisfying.

Re: How to take my Character further (with images!)
You can subdivide in zbrush without it changing the shape. Turn off smooth and it'll add extra verts but the shape will be the same. An alternative is to just lengthen the sections that are getting cut off. The highpoly doesn't have to have sensible geometry so long as the normals and other maps bake well. For your current… -
Re: possibly the best box modeling ever ?
In a lot of places the thoughts of box-modeling complex organic forms(human/creature anatomy) is antiquated. It was revolutionary 20-odd years ago as it replaced an even more tedious and unnatural method of stitching nurb surfaces together.

Re: game art college graduate success rate....
Some statistics from 2012 note that overall at least 60% of all college graduates do not find full-time employment in their field of study. For "game art" the percentage has to be near 85 to 90% in the U.S. if you count for-profit schools in the mix. Some stats were discussed on a CG forum last year about the large number… -
Re: contracting and taxes
A few bits of advice: -you can deduct a hefty chunk of your rent and utilities if you DEDICATE THE SPACE FOR WORK. Turn your living room into an office and even if the IRS shows up to audit you, they can't dispute square footage. My old office was 20% of my apartment space, and included my computer desk, drawing table and… -
Re: 3D-Palace and DVD
Yes they all create a similar style to the dvd but that is because it works. You are marketing to beginners and they need to learn the basics before creating a character. <--- Have you done market research buddy? do you work as a teacher? My students don't enjoy current DVD's simpy because there is little focus and because…
