If only I could hook my iPhone up to the TV, and output in HD the game I was playing complete with some kind of pad, be it bluetooth or something else... That would rock my socks. But gaming on an iPhone? Unless its Angry Birds or something simple, its a bit wank, to be honest... The controls are just not there...
Jeff makes some good points. I think the biggest thing to think about is your shot composition. Right now, you have most of the weight in the center of your shot densely packed around your rocky mound. I think you should rotate the camera to the left a little, then dolly it to the right. Get that house in the upper right…
Hey there Triksterr. There are a lot of folks here more qualified than I to critique environment paintings, but I don't think these are bad for your first attempts - mine looked very similar. I think the main thing I can recommend regarding environment painting, is to point out that it's not really that much different than…
Hi, time for another update. :) Thanks a lot, I really appreciate that. @Peyd3d You make a very good point about the camera positions. I haven’t fully committed to fixed cameras yet, and I can see how that makes it harder to read the space clearly. Locking in a few key viewpoints soon will definitely help with composition…

Everytime I play Uncharted, I always like looking around the environments for a good 5 minutes trying to get it all in! As usual, Naughty Dog does a great job on their textures :) Question: Those rocks in the first shot and in some of the other ones...do you blend/mix three different rock textures or something? I try to…

I think OP might be referring to the problem when working on 3/4 bone influenced verts where you get into a juggling situation when tweaking. Usually resolves into using the weight table or setting the weights in a specific order which avoids the problem. Imagine you give 1.0 to left leg, then 0.5 to hips, then you want…
Re-worked alot of colour in the rock texture and worked in the grass texture with divots! The white cubes represent that it is a competition Tee, going to give them a NRM map with the hole number on them soon, still racking my brains to come up with a suitable mascot/statue to feature near the Tee that incorporates the…
The rock sculpts started in zbrush as generic cylinders or boxes, alpha'd the crap out of it with rocky type formation alpha's, then I decimated down to close to game model specs and cleaned it up in Maya. In this pic you can see that normal tool at work.…
