Re: Advice Please - Blocking out a large urban scene
Its generally called "gray boxing", everything gets a mostly flat color and things are very blocky, just enough detail to describe what they are. In a way, its like making the entire thing out of collision meshes and leaving out 90% of the visual detail. Well... I think you might be biting off quite a bit. For the sake of… -
Why do we loathe game resellers yet support them?
This question has been on my mind lately, especially when bouncing between discussions with fellow game biz folks or here, where we constantly acknowledge the fact that used games sales are hurting the industry and seeing videos on Gametrailers, IGN, etc. Stores like Gamestop where they put a lot of effort into encouraging… -
Re: Brutal Knights - Game Project/Learning Experience
Hey @vilop1998 thanks and I appreciate the feedback! Admittedly, I hadn't really thought about the similarity between the enemy and player silhouette causing a readability issue but it's definitely a valid critique and I'll be thinking of ways to address it. Nothing is set in stone and the player character will be getting… -
Re: need to see some thoughts about my odd art test
it's not a big studio, but growing fast. they just started an unknown 3D game project and I applied for 3D environment artist. (I don't see any published 3D games on their website. the other games are in stylized art, and that's why I applied to the company. I haven't expected I'd get a test with realistic theme.) The test… -
Re: Normal map help please
It's kind of hard to see, but it definitely looks like you didn't set up your smoothing groups properly. Remember that any 90 degree or sharp corners should be hard edges. If you do this and still get some shading issues, screw around with the smoothing groups to get a workable result. Any harsh shading issues on your low… -

Pieru: Top notch. Kapoff: Looks pretty damn good so far. HOpe you can get those seams sorted out. Kawldio: Try using an emissive map or glow map instead of an alpha.

Re: The North Kingdom - Assassin's Creed (Fan Art)
You have already set the blockout. An environment artist (I am a weapon artist) should be able to tell you if it is right or not, but I think that what you have done is quite fine. As I see it, setting up a blockout and then replacing those blocks with a modular sets and hero props is the right way to go. Using at first…
