digital art degrees are worthless if your looking to get a job in film. anyone who can sign there name on the contract can get into those schools and get a certificate. the school gets funding from the government that you will eventually have to pay back in taxes and loans. so for them there is no risk its free money. if…
I promise to show a breakdown of my process for the bark really soon! I will probably get around to that this weekend when I have more free time. I will also be happy to show some of my techniques in ZBrush for foliage creation. Great references to get started though which will help cover a lot: Damien Lazarski's tutorial…

I suppose point of reference plays a huge role in perceptions? I have horrible nagging willys running down my spine drawing digitally. Like I am reinforcing bad "timid" "sketch-centric" habits not conducive to broad deliberate gestural/expressive strokes. ( painting anemically with ones wrists instead of one's elbow…
The others have pretty much summed up the crits on the characters so I'll give you some pointers on other stuff: I think one major issue is that I don't get the feeling that you are specialized. You have regular 3d-art, character stuff and a show-reel with animations. You need to focus on one thing right now and get that…
-Your portfolio is a lot better than many other student portfolios I've seen, so thats a good thing :) -You could stand to add more breakdowns of the characters, like including a wireframe shot and polygon count. That stuff is good to see and even more important in low poly characters like the ones you are making.…
Thanks guys, I need to emphasis the ease of pipeline from 2D to 3D art in my portfolio. Without a proper education and feedback with a teacher on the entertainment design industry, I was just left to imitate 'art of' books, student work that is shared online from those academies, and stuff I see on artstation... and it…
I first wanted to thank you for posting your remarks. Sorry about the text, I copy/pasted it. I increased the normal bump and I noticed some things were opposite so I fixed them in Photoshop. Background info: This project was inspired by a imperator_dk who felt that another piece I was working on was too high for my skill…
3d studio dos r2 for me as well, although when I got it from a friend as student version, r4 was out already. Did some very simple modelling, mostly animated stuff for fun sake (logo animations and such). No internet no manuals, it surely was a fun time figuring out that software ;) What stuck is that I still use the cyan…
