In a essay he wrote back in 09 for the Cato Institute, he laid out his views. Giving disenfranchised people (women and poor people) the right to vote, ruined everything. The majority of welfare beneficiaries are black, so some people take that as a thinly veiled racist slam also, which he has never rebuffed. Either way he…
//Curmudgeon mode Can't say I'm fan of "3-point" landings. That video really has at least 3 very different landings, two of which are just for show. The real landing would have both feet under the body mass so you have the maximum amount of cushioning for the head (brain). Hand can land as well, but mainly for balance, not…
Hello Everyone! I'm pretty new to UE4 and to PBR workflow and not too much experience with any of these softwares... I started every texture by sculpting it and baking Normal and AO map with xNormal and after that went to Substance designer where i did most of the work and for some props like the throne and sword I went to…
It's looking good but I think there's a few things you could probably do to take it one step further from where it is now. Overall the scene is kind of difficult to read or focus on any particular part. I think a large part has to do with the rather uniform lighting you have currently setup. Everything is lit in a very…
Don't forget that the contact network of a great school could be that last stepping stone for a student to get a foot into a studio for the first time, and stay there. While I agree that it's up to the student to make the best of it, it doesn't outweigh the power of a contact network. I have met plenty of people in real…
You have a couple of misconceptions here that need to be cleared up. For starters, we have this service concept. You think that companies, organizations ostensibly designed to acquire and accumulate capital, are beholden to provide the services and goods they produce without charging for them? I would think they would be…
Thanks for the inputs guys. Yes, two years is a long time to build up your skills as long as you concentrate real hard. I admit that I was constantly questioning myself whether I should stick with 2D or move onto 3D for years. In other thread, I complained that lack of mentoring can really delay the progress and...well,…
This whole article can basically be summarized as "stop liking things I don't like" This guy criticizes shooters for creative bankrupcy while praising a jRPG, probably the strongest contender to the FPS genre in terms of recycled repetitive gameplay. This is because he doesn't want creativity, he wants more of the same…
Hey Guys Thanks for all the feedback both good and bad, its very encouraging and its this type of thing that keeps me focused and wanting to continue on with the same projects. I'd like to try and reply back / answer everyone's questions but forgive me if I miss one or two Thanks Mr Bear, I've been leveling my texture…
Awesome start to a cool prop, very TF2. The only thing I can suggest changing would be the logo, it needs a bottle cap behind it. Maybe even normal mapped to stand out like it was stamped into the metal. You could make a higher LoD version and round out most of the angles, just make sure that the LoD's are more/less…
