I just started learning 3D modeling in 3ds Max about a week ago, and I'm having a hard time understanding a lot of the terminology and stuff in the other threads, so I figured I'd make a new thread with some of my questions. First, if anyone knows of any good educational material for beginners, please let me know! I've…
If your speaking about commercial art, then you have a valid opinion as the skillset is more in reach to learn immediately. However, if you are speaking about fine arts as well, then your talking out the rear. How do you show the emotion of languish? How do you convey a poem in light? Learning how to communicate your ideas…
that sucks fingers, was that ubisoft montreal/toronto? Here's what I understand of the situation: If you are a new canadian grad who resides in canada, there are tax credits the companies can apply for to help fund your salary. My brother who just started an iphone dev company says for devs, it's to the tune of 30k a year.…
What about the church I attend is secret? There are ordinary citizens involved in every aspect of its function. Everything people talk about is public and anyone would be more than happy to discuss it with anyone. You act like a church is similar to a government. That was the case many years ago when church and state…
If you want to live abroad, why start with the US, which is probably the most difficult place to get to, and probably the most expensive one to study at? And there's just a lot of risks in that plan. You basically think it's a good idea to pay 100k for connections. College connections are fickle. You really need luck to…
I used to fling out 2 examples to my students that don't really seem to exist online anymore. Del Walker (Sr Character Artist at Rocksteady). http://drawingyourdreams.com - When I first saw Del's work, it was "rough". Pretty much the textbook definition of amateur artist. Thing was.. he worked hard. Every month he…
Wages are really dependent on the market, I've seen them in the range of 45,000 to 55,000, overtime may or may not be paid especially if you have a salary. Once you have some work experience freelance might be a good option too. Your hand painted art is already quite strong. I would definitely make a list of studios that…
I was just making research about cool plugins for blender. Especially for hard surface and general usage. Here are the addons i've found useful. I didn't try all of them yet, but you can check them out. Hardops is best and most useful one for hard surface artists as MmAaXx said. Speedflow and speedflow companion makes some…
Greebles for the sake of greebles, nowhere for the eye to rest. No functionality for that giant glass chest. Those would be my thoughts. Fictional spaceship design is about three things: 1) Silhouette. Your ship should have an angle(s) that it's immediately readable from. Eric's pieces start with the silhouette and go in…
SOoooOOOooo Google Stadia has been released. Is it just me that's finding the release very underwhelming or am I missing an amazing action plan. I would love to have a Stadia but I can not see any original content on the console. I think Stadia desperately needs an original catalog of games. I don't understand why Google…
