I'm using primarily Opera because I simply prefer the UI and not having to reload pages when pressing the back button. Some websites won't load in Opera (Nintendo of Europe's broken POS website, for example), for those I use Firefox. I'm breaking a few more sites by only accepting cookies from websites I manually added to…
____________________________________________________________________________________________ PLANNING The intention of making this scene was to practice visual storytelling and practice static lighting in Unreal. I had little to no intention of making it very dynamic or interactive, however I would want it playable at a…
I like your work a lot, although, some of it could be removed for sure to shine what you can do well. The ray gun is awesome and something I would highly recommend taking to game res :thumbup: I find almost everything about your portfolio comes back to this following question, what do you want to be? Which right now isn't…
Don't use posemaniacs. Use real human ref. Harder to find, but 3D models are not accurate. They do not deform correctly nor do they have physics or weight, plus you're totally flattening out stuff that's in perspective because of various factors, but lack of proper depth perception is probable one. Pixelovely has a…
^^sounds about right. Your software choices make sense if that's what works for you. If you really want to handle a "content creation pipeline" though I think you should also be spending time on the actual art direction if you haven't already, as well as making prototype artwork to see how the actual game itself is going…
I'm not a super avid Modo user these days but I'll tell you what I know about how Blender's selection and normal editing compare to Modo. Selection isn't smart like Modo in that you can't press the up arrow and continue the selection. However, checker deselect does that job in the majority of cases. There's also the…
"What's the atmosphere like?" I can only talk about the studios I've been to which now is up to three. In essence they were relaxed but it was also dependent on what state the project was in. It's always a little bit awkward being the new guy in the art-team, if nobody else does the first-move and greet you properly you…
Hi all, Thanks for the comments. I'll try to answer everyone's questions: Yes the lighting is very flat. This is going to be in-game so I'm not going to waste time lighting it in max. I plan to rough the materials up a bit with some overlays for moss etc. Right now the entire cabin is built from one log material so if I…
Ty guys. Tomorrow is my last day working at Overkill Software so after that Im going to really work my ass off on this thing. Youll see updates coming left and right! Frell: Yeah, almost all the clothing parts are separate pieces. Im learning to use the power of subtools. And dividing things up in different sections. That…
Hi everyone ! It as been long before posting because I've been working really hard by the past few weeks. My gothic cathedral scene starts to look like something and I keep building it each day. Today, I want to write about my modeling process to document my progress and also to know if you guys have better, faster and…
