Real life furniture from 3D
I'm took a six week hiatus from my house to design and build a bedframe. I wanted something arts and crafts that would fit in my 1950s farmhouse, so nothing too fancy but also I did not want to make boring. I had some extra pieces of large pine I wanted to use as the feet and main support beams, and started with them as is… -
Re: Do graphics actually hinder gameplay?
I think OP's point was more production than gameplay related. I think that mis-allocation isn't really the problem - i.e. "art gets more budget than design, hence the gameplay sucks!" isn't really the reason why some games with great graphics just offer mediocre gameplay. Design is creative work and unlike art your… -
Re: Trading Card game Artwork
Hi pixelpatron! Thank you for the kind comments! When talking about the avatars, we understand completely where you are coming from. Which is why we plan to implement even more styles to further customise your avatar more to your liking. We will produce a graphic showcasing this as an update in the next week or so, not to… -
Re: Photos in textures?
No problem Frank. For personal work, I completely agree with you. Do what you like. However in a professional environment, this is not the case. You will need to do what your art director says, and if he says to use photos, then you've got to do so. If he leaves it up to you, and it is a realistic game, chances are that… -
Re: Ark Machine
lol okay, it's probably time for me to explain the story a bit more. the basic idea goes like this; the shifting of two realities has begun. A complete and separate reality apart from our own is merging with the one we exist in. During this shift, our universe was ravaged by its new inhabitants. Our God was unable to smite… -

I feel stuck in a rut, looking for direction
I thought I'd post some thoughts here, since I've been feeling sort of professionally lost, down and out of late, so bear with me as I toss out some thoughts. I have some questions intermixed with my thoughts, I'll try to bold them so you guys can find them, if you feel like offering some input. I've been feeling that my… -
Re: GuildWars 2 Environment Process
thanks everyone, here are a couple more breakdowns. This Daniel concept was one of the first big props I worked on in GW2. In the first GuildWars we couldn't really have giant props that you could explore because of pathing limitations so this was an opportunity to push the envelope early in the project. Basically it's a… -
Re: Tell me how badly my portfolio sucks
Most of it is really good, but one bad piece can spoil it for the rest. Think of it this way when they open your portfolio you start at 0, provided the site isn't flash and takes a year to load. A good piece of art gets you +1 a bad piece is -2. Lose Prime it hurts to look at it. It may (or may not) be accurate to the G1… -
End of year environment project.
Hey PC My and a fellow classmate are starting our 2 month long end of year school project. We've opted to do an environment inside of UE4. We are balls deep in the pre-production stage at the moment, but I thought i'd make a thread to get some crits on this project early seeing how, speaking for myself, pre-production has…
