Re: Online portfolio critique?
Thanks for the critiques guys. I've removed the character page until I have something not shitty to put on it, I've modified my resume page a good bit and have reorganized how I present my experience, and now I'm going back and watching tutorials for zBrush and Maya. I guess one major thing that one of you brought up that… -
Re: Greg Improvement Thread (Critique Needed)
So I'm going to be posting updates as I follow through every Tuesday. It's easier if I make a list to explain what I tackled: -Anatomy studies (should have done more, but didn't have the time to gather ref this week) -Icons cont. (critique on if materials read/how to improve be greatly appreciated, keep in mind they would… -
Re: New way to publish rich 3D content to the web, mobile and VR
It's just Unity, so whatever you can do in Unity you can do in 3veo. Just a warning though - one limitation (at least for right now) is that if you have a custom C# script for one of your particle systems, that won't show up in the 3veo published version. We're hard at work adding script support right now (we're using our… -
Re: [WIP] Texture Crits (Image Heavy)
I'd say the circles on the ceiling tiles could do with a bit more definition and a more gradual edge to them, I'd only notice them in game if I stopped and stared at the ceiling. Also adding some height in the normal to the red paint would help to sell it a bit more. In fact more overall texture which is there in the dif… -
Re: Online talk: Personal Branding Tips for Game Artists
Just a few things I would of touched on, What should you expect to pay to host your own portfolio? What are the free/cheap options? a bit about don't always trust the most advertised hosting site to be the best option (GoDaddy really comes to mind). You don't have to give solid numbers or name sites, but just some more… -
Re: MFA degree for teaching?
They say an MFA is required in most cases but in my experience when I was straight out of undergrad with a BFA and less than average portfolio I got an interview for teaching at WPI, didn't get the job but I had a chance. I also have a friend who does not have an MFA but went to Vancouver Film School, which you receive a… -
Re: How to write cover letter if you are self-taught junior 3D artist?
To be honest, that's super boring and generic. That's basically what every cover letter guideline will tell you to write for any job. Try to make your cover letter a bit more unique to you. Briefly mention how you left your career production artist in order to peruse a career in games, that you're self taught trying to… -
Re: Senior Student Portfolio Critique
You shouldn't compare your work to other students. Your work probably does look much better than many students out there. However, in the real world you are competing with the industry's best. So that should be the bar you set for yourself. Barely scraping by what is acceptable, just won't cut it and it certainly will not… -
Re: Environment modelling question
Hehe, I just finished this same exact environment a few weeks ago. I ended up baking the planks onto a plane and texturing it that way. For the ocean I used a shader. It was really hard to make it look realistic and it is far from perfect. I would recommend checking out these links:… -
Re: vertex lighting + normal maps ?
Thanks. In fact, i was more guessing that in case of vertex lighted object, UDK uses radiosity normal map, but instead of storing on maps, it stores on vertex data. But first I'm not really sure about how RNM are set in UDK for better performances. I think they mix the 3 directionnal intensity in the 3 channels of a map.…
