Hey all, I've just finished my entry on the Substance Painter competition, and was recommended to share my workflow here as well :) Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :) Soo... This is a catch-up of the last couple of days progress (as I didn't actually have time to write up what I was doing) towards my entry for…
We've had this recent discussion with one of my friends. It's such a complex discussion but I think we have to talk about it. I don't know about you guys, but when I say I wanna work in CG art, nobody takes my career choice seriously (not even my parents sadly). For my friends who study in engineering and science, I'm…
Hello everyone and welcome to the Monthly Noob Challenge for the month of March. We are now in the second challenge of this new year. After an exciting amount of participation in the last month's contest, I am excited to see what we can achieve this time around. Join our Skype group if you want! Add me on Skype and I will…
We're 3D students and we decided to take part in this contest. Our idea is based on a cyberpunk universe and the "throne room" of the mega-corporation's head.

There currently isn't even a easily downloadable cv (and looking at my site, yes people do download those things) or link to linkedin. There are a lot of resources here on polycount (from making a site to what webhosting to pick) in…

I was working on a void mace some time ago but since my skills are limited I couldn't get the best UV out so I gave it a break. this is the mace and…
[ QUOTE ] Wait... since when? I don't mean to offend any employees of Monolith, but when I think of best game developers in the industry, they certainly don't spring to mind. Everything I've seen/heard/read/experienced about the matrix online was craptastic. [/ QUOTE ] *laffs* It's great when people spew a mouthful of…
At first I wasnt going to enter the 2015 iClone Animation Contest because, to be honest, I didnt fully understand the rules and requirements. I havent played a video game in six years so I felt left behind there. But after watching submitted videos and realizing there was (I think) a 1-minute movie category, I decided I…
G4Tech TV is dropping the Tech TV from their name. just about the only thing left is XPlay. the channel has gone from something i used to watch to learn about computers and technology to some trumped up little whore of commercialism. screensavers used to have two very competent hosts that could answer any question people…
