Re: In Need of Rendering Advice (for portfolio)
Look into three point lighting. It would really help set up your foundations of lighting no matter what program you use. I do have a scene file in Maya that I keep with three lights just to get something started quickly, but I eventually tweak them much more to achieve a lighting setup appropriate for the subject. Marmoset… -
Re: Martin Palko - Portfolio Feedback
@ZacD: Yea, the temple is very stereotypical, I want to replace it with another environment piece, but I don't have one finished right now, so I've just moved it down closer to the bottom until I can replace it. @DWalkeR: I've replaced the previews for the bottom two with ingame/concept images from the games, and it… -
Re: A great non custom computer desktop?
A few quick things. Internet is shitty on train so I can't open all those links. 1. If possible, buy a computer from the small business section of big companies. If you buy a home computer, you're going to end up with a ton of pre-installed crap to clean up when you first get the computer. 2. Like ZacD said, you should go… -
Re: Critique my failed art test
gotta second what zacD and pliang said, little lighter on the normals (and aocc mebbe) so things can read a little easier visually and it'd be awsome... tho in all honesty it already looks badass and gotta say it seems very doubtful they passed on you coz you messed up the test or anything. As much as it sucks, does seem… -
Re: ArenaNet Environment Art Test
This is looking pretty solid. I feel like in GW2 the man made elements tend to be a bit less saturated in their structure, with the natural elements having the lion's share of it. In your case, I would tone down the saturation of the wood (look at screenshots of the buildings in queensdale) and maybe even the roof. I think… -
Re: Best Method To Get Started With Game Art/Game Creation
@dustinbrown Thanks, I'll be sure to check the wiki out! :D @PyrZern I haven''t really started making art, I wanted to be sure of the best path to take before I begin spending tons of time on it. But I'm thinking I want to spend 2-3 months learning game art (on digitaltutors.com I think) and then start making a game in… -
Re: Remaking Phantasy Star assets
ZacD - Thanks, yeah, I agree that the scale is a little ambiguous. I think that stems from the original game where it felt as though everything was a bit larger than I had expected when I went to get ref, with the exception of the terminal. Thank you for, the compliments everyone, I was playing around with making a video… -
Re: What would you do if you won $50 million?
@erasherhead - that's because you're a PIMP. :D - pay off my own large debts - help both brothers with their monetary issues, retire my mother & stepfather - buy a decent house and car (nothing crazy) - travel for a while (since I'd probably never get the chance again) - get a proper pimp workstation setup for meh home… -
Re: New PC. ..Kind off..not really. Yelp!
I used to run an mATX build for a LAN rig and just bolted on a handle from local hardware store to the top of the case and made sure parts inside were secured well, including homemade support for the GPU. Was super mobile, as it was a super compact old school mATX box case. As ZacD has already mentioned, ITX builds can be… -
Re: Early WW2 French Tank - Char B1 bis
thanks guys. @ ZacD - because of shading issues (2 perpendicular faces = they have different shading) plus twice more polys for that. In this case u see them mostly from one viewing plane so chain like that gives better result as to me. Also when I c chains like that in game i like em more, so i decided to try myself as…
