Squares in characters are bad. Squares are hard, 90 degree angles, found in machines and architecture. The body is soft, bend, it stretchs and contracts. The muscles flow into one another. Burn your ruler! Bin that 90 degree angle! Love the S curve! Oh, and there are way too many polygons in the hands compared to the rest…
[ QUOTE ] ...I think too many people just draw something and go "Oh, this looks cool, that's enough!" ... but if you get to that stage and then ask a couple of quick questions about the character, and apply that to the design, you often find it can be pushed further and become something more than the sum of it's parts.

Everything you've said there is correct, but I think you need to make a differentiation between a pre-rendered and game res character here -- it sounds like what you're wanting is a cross between the two (normal mapped low res but with pre-rendered shaders). If that's not what you're wanting, I suggest you look into…
See how it comes full circle, heh. I've run into some problems like scaling then rotating something, it will squash/stretch the piece, but it doesn't happen every time and sometimes UVW XForm fixes it. Of course I can't get it to freak out now that I'm trying so they might have fixed somethings in 2010 when they added some…
To clarify this can be a patchy mix of formal education and work experience, they add everything up to make the equivalent of a degree. So it can be an unfinished double degree, a two year diploma, and a few years experience. Maybe post some of your work too, this will give an indication as to what you should be focusing…
Yup, very nice work. Good site too. I would suggest removing the "finest stuff___" line and one or two of the empty horizontal lines above it. That change would allow your environment image to move further up vertically on your main page, so that it's immediately visible when your page loads. I'm on a 1280 x 960 crt…
WOOT! i'm getting one, maybe two as soon as i can afford it! A note about the quality. I've worn my fruit of the loom greentooth shirt since the first dominance war contest, and its still one of my favorite shirts. It's been on me during festivals, binge drinking and polycounting, and it still holds together! The logo is a…
Ok, after taking a look at bestbuy and staples i've come to the conclusion that all their monitors are shitty tn panels and totally suck, regardless of brand, the vertical viewing angle on TN's are just terrible. If i'm going to be spend atleast $200 for each of two monitors i might as well spend a little more and get some…
I searched for video of gameplay myself, since I can never judge a game by Blur's Cinematics. Gameplay looks very much like Devil May Cry and God of War. Only now Biblical. You play as the demonic representation of War itself, instead of a God. Until now I thought the name of the game was simply Darksiders, but they added…
looks like a fun game but I cant bring myself to get excited about it when its this far away from release. from what Ive read the game seems quite modular, you have to work on each part of the gameplay in isolation. I just hope this modular, ordered, gameplay feels natural and still gives alot of freedom to the player not…
