Full disclosure: I work alongside Sean at Raven Software. But I'm offering my opinions here as an artist who's seen the work, read the thread, and have a decade of experience in the art industry, much of which has been spent reviewing professional and student portfolios. Super Kudos to Adam for raising this issue, and to…
There are ways around it. Sega could go out of their way and name every player a last name from the NFL onto a player in the game. So say a 'Manning' as a RB on Baltimore. This would give them access to the 'Manning' on commentary on the game. Now, with the technology available, when people edit the teams it would say…
Hey vatsel-- painting portraits from memory is a great exercise, but I don't think it's what you should be focusing on right now. Without a proper grasp of facial anatomy that exercise becomes more about sheer memorization of the image rather than learning the facial structure and synthesizing the rest of the information.…

Here's where I'm at: I wanted to see if it would be possible to quickly bake something very complex (like FiberMesh fur/hair, for example) to a fur shell. The idea would be that…
-FINAL EDIT- The Prince of Misanthropy Many winters ago, a man with a heart as cold as snow ruled a castle. One dark night, an old hag came knocking at his door, pleading for protection from the elements. Selfish, he cast her away without a second thought. It was then the hag turned into a young maiden, a witch,…
Yeah I think the introduction to the second buddy could have been done better, to give them more of a reason to actually want to help you. I do like that the game changes who the buddies are when you play, in my case both my buddies are the women. @Nizza: Use the bus if you haven't already. I find it quicker and less…

Please clear more disk space (by emptying the trash, deleting files, etc.) and then click OK to resume." After scouring…
