Re: Slaughter House Asset Creation
No worries guys. We ran through a number of titles initially and tried thinking of better options than "Slaughter House" (it was a placeholder). These titles ranged from "Dead Summer" to "Friend" to "Duck, Duck, Dead" (one of those was suggested in jest). In the end though, "Slaughter House" was the title we kept coming… -
Re: Building a portfolio website?
Thanks for your opinion guys... If this isn't something useful to you, that's cool. I'm just learning this stuff, and thought I'd share it with the group. I like looking at pretty portfolios... if someone presents their work in an effective way that is creative and aesthetically pleasing, that's a plus for me when… -
Re: tablets vs cintiq ( or similar)
Well, I hate to buck the trend but I love working on Cintiqs or anything where I can lean in and draw directly on a surface. I think this is because before cg / 3d I used to draw a heck of alot as a kid so it just feels very natural for me :/ I always found the tablet on desk option super awkward and doing lines or fine… -
Re: THRONE ROOM - The Temple of Utu - MartinH & Minos
I used to paint a lot, mainly oils and I remember enjoying it and being better than most at it, especially during my studies. I think going out into the big wide world changed things, I needed money and got a regular salary doing something mundane. Years later I then tried to go back to painting but I'd lost my passion for… -
Re: Environment Art - Share your experiences.
I've worked on a couple of big productions and quite a few smaller ones where the majority of env assets were outsourced. 90% of the env art team were dealing with/fixing/placing out sourced assets. It came as a real shock to me. Look at the credits of big titles, Uncharted and Gears relied heavily on outsourcing. That's… -
Re: Including Mood Boards in Kickstarter or Early Access pitches?
@Kevin : I see that you have made your decision, and I am glad that you took the time to ask for advice here. Just to drive the point across a little bit further : mood boards can be great ... but they are also extremely fast and easy to do, and at the end of the day they are by nature 100% derivative. What I am getting at… -
Re: For those of you in the industry, how many hours a week ?
This thread is very informative and gets rid of some anxiety I have been having about the game industry. My fiance and I are to be married next year in May which is right after I am done with my classes. I have often worried about the 60-100 hour standard strain would put on a new marriage but now that I have a better idea… -

Re: TF2 contest idea
I'll try and point out why this is a stupid idea. 1) It creates a lot of legal issues for Valve. 2) It's really not all that creative of an idea. 3) It doesn't fit the era or the character. First off you choose the Red team, farming, mining, red necks. 2nd the engineer is a DIY kind of guy and most engineers would probably… -
Re: Comps, how important are they?
compost work? : ) :) but if what he meant is compensatory, I would say just do what you are confortable doing, some ppl do overtime ALL the time, because they dont mind and think they will get a good benefit out of it (many juniors or 1st projects at the company) but they do get some sort of experience benefit, not cash…
