Re: Portfolio Critique?
Barkingham is so great! i'm looking forward to reading the blog. i never worked in a big studio so i can't share any wisdom. doing ammo crates or AK-47s all day sounds boring, unless your skills are super awesome so you get to do more creative things. i think your portfolio is stronger in organic and stylized stuff (… -
Re: Building guns modularly
There are two different things here: 1) demonstrating an ability to create a modular weapon/accessory set like you would see in Call of Duty/Battlefield/Homefront/etc. 2) demonstrating an ability to create a number of unique assets. If you fill your portfolio exclusively with Kalashnikov-based rifles, you're going to look… -
Re: AK74
Looks excellent to me, not sure how much you know about guns, specifically the AK line. AK 47 and 74s are originally made in Russia of course however, there are numerous other countries like Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, China, America, etc that make alterations to existing models or even make their own version. What is… -
Re: Demo reel

Re: Final 2015 Reel
Sweet! Solidest reel I've seen in a while! I see no big glitches: in with a bang, out with a bang, dope soundtrack, contact info is where it needs to be, good length, high quality rendering throughout (from iAnimate I guess) so the viewer gets to focus on what is important, the animation. Something you might want to think… -
Re: Seven-Way Scuffle
wow.. I guess i would understand if you didn't like Game Art. It is a matter of taste and noone can force you to like it. But there is more than Elfs, Space Marines, AK-47s and Mutants. I would like to remind you that most of the people here make things they like in order to practice their skills and learn more and more.… -
Re: Support
I can't seem to export any ggx calibration profiles either. Not in cs6, cc or cc (2014). I get the "curve" error in the older versions but just the generalized "functionality not available in this version" in the newest version. The only map the ggx profile trys to edit (with a curves adjustment?) seems to be the gloss… -

Opinions on new building new PC?
Hi everyone. I'm doing some research into upgrading my PC at the moment and was hoping I could get some opinions on the set up I've been quoted by a local PC shop. Currently I've got a Q6600 processor, 4gb DDR2 ram and a Quadro 1700 FX video card. I'm mainly wanting it all for Maya modeling and rendering, good UDK… -
Re: Texture Leveling
lets go deeper. gamma 2.2 isn't actually a pow(color,2.2) function. the suggested way to convert to linear space is: "RGB = ((R'G'B' <= 0.03928) ? R'G'B' / 12.92 : pow((R'G'B' + 0.055) / 1.055, 2.4))" followed by "Luma = 0.2126 * R + 0.7152 * G + 0.0722 * B" The ' means prime, and implies that a color is in gamma space.…
