Re: Gaming industry professionals , your experience working in games, and what can be better in future?
> What is bad thing working in gaming industry? Management. Mostly because we have to try to get creative and technical development work together, which isn't always easy while everyone tries to push boundaries of art and tech. On every project there's a trial and error and back and forths. You have to learn to live with… -
Re: Roger Ebert On Why Video Games Can Never Be Art
This discussion is probably in the realms of things that get lost in the translation and differences in definitions. Although I am aware that it is a lame excuse, I am not a native English speaker; hence I might interpret certain terms slightly differently. For instance, in my native language (Polish) "art" has a… -
Re: What brand laptop should I buy as an artist?
@krasenmaximov Then I'll suggest researching well established brands, as Joopson mentioned earlier upthread. Reason being they're typically renown for reliability, component longevity and build quality at a competitive consumer price point so my advice is to start listing system specs of those devices with quality… -
Re: Indecisiveness in choosing a Career / Fear of missing out / Paradox of choice
Your artwork is super trippy, I like it! A lot of your work is unfinished or unpolished and needs to be brought to that next stage for the wow factor. If you choose 3D, you will for sure need to dedicate most of your time towards it. If you're worried about the rabbit hole never ending, then trust me when I say this: it… -
Re: [Portfolio] Samfisher84 - 3d/Environment Artist
Hi Emanuel (Hej :) ) Nice work so far, you right out of Uni? You have swedish text on one of your games-posts, Star Stable? You might want to fix that. You might want to add some more details regarding what you did on each game you worked on, are the student-projects or actual commercial games? etc etc Regarding your work,… -
Re: Am I really good enough for the Games Industry?
Here's the thing with getting any creative job. This is just my experience with it. There is an average skill level floor, where you have a ton of people at this skill level, and everybody at this level has trouble getting jobs. The thing is though as soon as you bust your head through this skill floor, suddenly you have… -
Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 10 Concept Thread
Hmmm, my thoughts, not sure why everyone is favoring the temple. If you think it will be easy, I would doubt it for "noobs". The sheer scale of it really lacks any nice details (particularly those trapezoid shapes running off the pillars). It's quite ambiguous, you will need a lot of creative input of your own to pull it… -
Re: Is it possible to work part time in this industry realistically?
My wife is a saint and she does her motherly duties when she gets home. Thing is I feel bad since she's on her feet at work 12 hours a day dealing with who knows what with her patients so I always help her even if she doesn't ask for it. I'm also not particularly in a creative mood after being screamed at all day long. I… -
Re: How do you guys push yourself to practice art?
Taking breaks can get tricky. Honestly, I only take "breaks" AFTER I've polished off a project. Then I say, I'm gonna play this game for a week or two, or just spend more time with family, etc. But then, after a few days, the guilt of not doing any art at home starts to sync in. I make it sound negative but really I just… -
Re: Maya LT ShaderFX
This looks cool Kees! I'm just going to chime in with the others here, why is this not available for regular Maya? We have a game school with ~120 students and we're paying good money for the full Autodesk Entertainment Creative Suite Ultimate. Autodesk decides to add new features for working with real-time shaders (highly…
