How ignorant can you be? Seriously. From my personal experience with friends and other people. There are guys downloading every pieve of digital entertainment they can get their hands on. And they spend endles hours using this content. It is rediculous to assume that a person that spends about 80 % of his freetime on…
I think you're currently worrying too much about time with the 2D stuff. Honestly, I think the idea of speedpaints (which I guess is basically what this whole spitpainting thing is about? 30 minutes to paint a given topic?) is waaaaay too popular among artists learning to paint digitally. Speed is about optimization,…
I really think you need to dial back the complexity of your pieces and take some time to practice using your medium. This post might sound harsh, I hesitate to post it, but I hope it isn't viewed as an attack. These are really all over the place, and don't work as strong images on a very fundamental level - there would be…
Finally, some nerd talk, haha. A few things I should mention is the computer has been used by me alone for around 2 years (its the 2008 model). So its using the Quad core xeons that dont support hyperthreading or anything. I usually try and get a new system every 2 years if it will be fast enough to justify the price. Also…
Well after checking out the specs on the Alienware Area-51m 7700 I'm hooked! I would love to get one so I started checking out ebay, but Im so damn skeptic of spending that kind of money on ebay, let alone those guys who wanna take the transaction outside of ebay. Some got prices so low its got to be a scam. Like $900 for…
First off, thanks for the huge response. It feels very nice when you can't show anything you've done for a year or more. As far as answering questions: Daz: [ QUOTE ] Got any wires of her face? Looks pretty dense, or is that normal mapped? [/ QUOTE ] I didn't normal map her face because it never looked right, so I did it…
Thats what im being bothered with. Im really anxious about getting to do some serious art work (is that how you say it? :) ) but i cant really start anything big cause of the school chores and college preparation are sucking my time.The reason im thinking hard about studying engineering is because its a safe option for…
Butt-Sahib - Because of several reasons. In short: -because the challenge was based on this model -lowpoly people get more detail in their models, with the same budget. -highpoly people learn to prioritize and conserve polygons (this is a skill that some schools forget about) -everyone gets to push themselves a bit more,…
absolutely :) from my brief observation there seems to be several technical problems in that work that contribute to the lack of "beauty". the assets themselves do not look satisfactory and have some inconsistency issue. here are some areas that are noticeable right away: 1. models dont follow the aesthetic style of the…
Yeah I know what you meant. I was just pontificating on repeatedly asking the question, "what is the most productive thing I could be doing right now?" as for me these days is a guilty reaffirmation. I value a lot of things, so making the sacrifices is difficult (I know it should be) but they hurt so bad. (cue whining)…
