Best technique for creating textures/Materials?
I'm curious to what technique everyone uses to create textures like rock or terrain? Do you hand paint yours? do you apply normal maps? Personally i'm trying to figure out what the benefit of using certain techniques are. For example the way i texture my models right now is simply modeling, uving, photoshop, then bringing… -

I have never taken part in such large-scale competitions before. But although there isn’t much time left, I really want to try my hand at it.

Sata HD Drive switcher?
Hiya, My HD has just died so Ive bought a new 200gig Western Digital Sata drive to replace the 80gig seagate that died. After reinstalling windows and a few drivers I installed the Call of Duty 2 demo that ran like ass on my old clogged up drive and the leap in performance is incredible (its playable in DX 9 mode!) So what… -
Re: Microsoft Surface
It's still not as sensitive as an intuos, but it's definitely sensitive enough to do light sketching. I've owned both an Intuos 4 and the Surface Pro and the freedom it gives greatly surpasses the need for that last gram of sensitivity.

Re: portfolio/site redesign

The blackops character is kind of "blinding" now that I look at it again so I appreciate those suggestions. Also Chris ; the color…
