Re: Overwatch Fan Character - Project Chimera
Finally an update! Had some unexpected freelance work and a few art tests to pop up recently, but now I've got some time to plug away at Chimera here. I think the lower body is pretty much blocked in and placed roughly the way I'd like. I ended up deviating from my paint-overs above to simplify the design somewhat as well… -
Re: Using plugins in studio environment
Beef, I really don't think so ... Taking Toolbag as an example, the website states this : To me that means that a person with a license can *run* the program easily on any computer (which is very handy when it comes to showing a quick demo to anyone interested), but that does not mean that buying the program/license once… -

Re: Nearly 50% of GameStops profits come from pre-owned sales (College Paper)
APB failed on its own merits, it was completely un-pirate-able, and couldn't be bought used, but that's besides the point The studio making it housed way more artists than an indie game ever would, braid housed one, on freelance. Big-budget games are where we get our jobs, if big budget games stopped being made most of us… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Sylver
Like these guys have said, pick a particular area you want to specialize in and go all out on it. I think, despite what you school may say, that unless you are an animator with moving characters and such, that you don't need a show reel. If you going to do props then all you need is kick ass prints or still images of those… -
Re: Why having Connections doesn´t help you get a Job
It all comes to being Professional, Professionals know they must reserve their energy for their art rather than squander it on acting arrogant. I used to think I was helping people by giving them honest feedback even when it was bad or even answering to unuseful feedback others gave me(however politely) but it all seems… -
Re: Concept Character - Holy Smoke
@haikai - Thanks a Lot. :) Yes you are right about the hair.Will note that one down for sure for my next female character. :D Yes the pose is definitely not something which even I wanted to look like in the end.But becoz my rigging skills aren't that good I managed to somehow put her in this pose without deforming the mesh… -
Re: Xoliul's 3DS Max and Maya Viewport Shader
Thanks dudes! I really appreciate this feedback from the users! Micky, -spec for glass is a good point. Though you actually need reflections with cubemaps for accurate glass, and this does support opacity ;) It's the "alpha affects reflection" checkbox in the fresnel effects. I can just rewire this button to also affect… -
Re: Interested a career change, maybe teaching
I would love to get into teaching, I get asked alot but its always wrong place, wrong time. If you have the opportunity then definetly take it :) theres a big lack of teachers in games that actually know what they are doing and have such experience as you. I think Im in the same boat where the games industry is very… -
Re: Is Sub D/Poly modeling dead?
It's a bit pedantic but 'How was it done?' and 'How can it be done?' are two different questions. How was it done? Likely sculpted in Zbrush. Probably using a combination of custom alphas and brushes for the smaller details. (Possibly incorporating some remeshing or retopology steps to refine the larger shapes.) Sculpting…
