Too Long, Didn't Read: If you want something done right, don't use freelancer << that's frankly upsetting to read as someone who as been working professionally as a freelance artist for couple of years. The quality of the work done goes with the price you paid. A lot of freelancer will charge couple hundred bucks a day for…
Sounds like it would be worth it for my to drop Quixel and pick up Substance. It might be worth looking into more tutorials as well for both programs. One thing that I notice was the number of likes from facebook for the two programs. Not sure if it exactly representative of the industries that use them. Quixel 190,000 vs…
I've never used it but it could be something hacky Seneca's done as part of his script. Are you using it in 401? I'm not sure he's updated his scripts for the latest version yet - could be a bug introduced there.
your brother is flat out wrong. Portfolio definitely matters. You need exceptional skills but also exceptional personal skills as well. The portfolio lands you the interview, your personal skills convince the employer that they NEED you to work for them. Business is deceptively simply. There's only one thing that matters.…
Thanks guys. Extremely useful information here. I may also explain that for the grenade, we had to meet a 400 tri-limit. Which I met exactly. So many things simply weren't modeled. The textures however, can be done properly regardless of polycount. Our instructor also said it was called a baseball grenade, and we're…
Interesting thread is interesting. Just out of curiosity, do pixologic ever have sales on zbrush? A workmate says he bought zbrush when he found it online cheap. I think if I ever find a copy for $400-500 I'll have to pick it up. (especially when the Australian dollar is kicking ass)
Did you mean to say 220 watts? That sounds just a tad too low but I doubt you'll need a 1,000w PSU either. My guess: 300-400w. Try this out: Power Supply Calculator Just put in all your parts and it will calculate a recommended range.
Basically whatever way you use is so negligible that you wont see any performance difference. Just make sure you dont send unused channels as that is a waste. There are options to store textures as 1 channel instead of rgb/rgba. textures are stored on the gfx card itself, which is why they come in 1Gig up to 2Gig these…
Dear customers... discussion about the license: I want to remind you that Photoshop price 19$ per month, Corel Painter price is 400$... Cheaper program like SAI never gives several licenses or something same...be objective. We already give 50% discount to second license.
Thanks AkiRa, that's more feedback than I expected and I'm very grateful! (Btw, some of those images have 404'd :/ ) I fully agree. Before this texture I had a really crappy one with high intensity normal's and it looked off. The normals themselves are actually stretched, as the panels were too short. So the texture itself…
