Re: Matt practices anatomy
This is where makeup, contouring, facial expression, camera focal length, lighting, retouching, age and cosmetic surgery all start to screw with your reference. So you really want to get a lot of ref from varied sources and then go for the average. If you lean too heavily on a few shots and try to match them 1:1 you'll… -
Re: Anime Process + Shader Techniques
It doesn't look like you're using the step function in your shader, and it's absolutely necessary to make the sharp shadowing. They mention it in the GDC presentation on this slide: So you take the dot product (also called "scalar" product) between the vertex-to-light vector (going from the vertex to the light position)… -
Re: Does 3ds Max have an attribute, numerical, parameter, or size editor?
Under the Utilities tab you can find a measurement tool but that's only for objects. There are measurement helper objects and the Measure Distance tool: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2016/ENU/3DSMax/files/GUID-25B16E09-84D0-4F8E-9F17-0CC52ABB450F-htm.html You can also… -
Re: DDS photoshop plugin explained
I didn't know what unsigned vs. signed means, so I asked one of the programmers here. Here's how he explained it to me. I added emphasis to highlight the meat of the issue... "Actually, we do use signed textures for normal maps, although we dont support loading them at the moment. The unsigned normal maps are converted.… -
Re: I'm usually met with positive feedback, so it's hard to improove.Tell me a few things you don't like
When you make a post asking for critiue and not praise. So people praise your post's title xD Thank you for all of your replies. This is exactly what I was looking for. I reached a point where I'm good enough to know something is off, but can't put my finger on what. Keep in mind, I just quickly sketched over in gimp, so I… -

I really appreciate your input and will definitely consider them, when I will start to work on the next update.

Re: Pirate Gun Deck - Feedback wanted!
Awesome to see you posting here! And a really cool piece you chose to make. you have come a long way. I like your lighting. I have a couple critics for you. First I agree with what Kurt Russel and blaisoid are saying. Some dirt collecting around the edges of the glass would help. Just subtract this in your emissive map.… -
Re: Houses - Rent or Buy?
My brother did that, it worked out really well for him too. I think he had labor subtracted off his rent but he had write it all up and document things. I don't think my brother paid for materials either. He would tell the guy what needed to be done, the landlord would get the supplies and my brother would do the work… -
Re: Curvy 3D 3.0 Sculpting
Hehe cool to hear :) Alright a few more suggestions from me : One thing that I think is really missing is the ability to simply sketch ... a blob shape. Like, drawing a potato-like, loosely closed curve, and have the result be the corresponding potato. I know it sounds dumb but that's really the bare minimum for a… -
Re: Cover Letter Critique Request: Art Production Intern Telltale Games
Tried to collate and implement most of the critiques, clarifying the purpose of each paragraph, subtracting unnecessary words and tightening up the sentence lengths. Here is Draft 03. Is it better? Am I close and good to go? To Whom It May Concern: I am writing to express my interest in the Art Department Intern position…
