-sigh- Blaizer. Printer DPI is not the same as pixels per inch. This image should explain enough: 200PPI is enough for a print and even 100PPI could be okay for a small run thing like a company flyer or school magazine, but it's kinda pushing it. Ideally you want source images 300PPI or higher for prints, but at some point…
I used xubuntu for about a year. It became a hassle, as there were a lot of things that didnt run like photoshop or zbrush so I would have to run windows in a virtual machine or dual boot. Then there were plugins for stuff that were windows only. Then you could never write to the root user without giving a password, and it…
LOL... Ok two things I didn’t bother mentioning because I didn’t think it was necessary… 1. Actually I did search and found a thread started by Ben Mathis, (which was closed already), so I started a new thread thinking it was relevant to some people. Since so many have already posted here I think I have proven it was worth…
Funky concept, I like it! Here are some things I noticed with the art: Your grass feels very lumpy. I would bring back some of the medium/low details in the normal map compared to just the high. Find some reference to shoot for. Also, I wonder if you're planning to add grass meshes on top? Selling wild grass is hard with a…
Chicago is tough pickins right now at the moment. The only major studio hiring here off the bat for a level artist is NetherRealms (http://www.netherrealm.com/careers) but she would have to go through WB Corporate and that can be quite a process. Phosphor Games, High Voltage. Wideload (and the remnants of Robo) are still…
haha i love the wireframe, it has some realy weird things going on. i would make his ass smaller by 50% probably bring in the heels, or give them a root endings (get rid of the human like heels) if you had a good wireframe going on, you could have taken it into zbrush to create a very cool highres version. before you go…
:D ! Oh god, I remember the Super Lens Flare Obsession... Back in the late '90s when the original Unreal engine was riding high and everybody was cramming games like Wheel of Time and Klingon Honor Guard full of lens flares, I remember talking to an animator at Epic who was trying to figure out how to make a character…
More people put quality art in WYAWO than in actual threads these days, and a lot of projects die out. There is amazing stuff there and is very friendly for people to post in... but it kind of ruins the magic of seeing a thread of someone's progress instead of post #45, post #172, post #233 in a single thread. Then again,…
thanks all The 'wilderness' are all gardens around the different temples in Kyoto, they were all incredibly gorgeous. None of them had grass, just that moos that looked like out of a fantasy movie with all the exposed tree roots. I was there with some people from work, and they were so terribly impatient everytime i wanted…
[ QUOTE ] Ninja's...The Hamas was *voted* into power. That's the 'majority' speaking right there. The assumption that the majority wants what western culture has is just...well it's not true.
