Re: What Game artist career is more difficult?
I wouldn't really say that anything is necessarily harder than others. I do believe that artists in general need to put a lot more hours into what they do to become great, but then again it's pretty much the same with every job.

Re: Map Zone - procedural textures
Hand-painting textures is great. It's a skill that I very much wish I was more polished at. There is no real substitute for custom hand-painted textures.
