Help Needed to Move Forward
Hi everybody! I'm a 27 year old, self taught artist in need of advice. I never went to school for art (couldn't afford it) So I worked really hard to improve on my own. I would really like to become a 2D concept artist some day. I've come a long way, yes, but I have a very long way to go. Particularly with digital… -
My career as a 3D artist finally begins!!!
I'm really excited. To give some quick background, I started uni at 17 studying civil engineer - hated it and dropped out after 2 years. Got kicked out of the house and roamed aimlessly for a while. Did a 4 year design degree and got a job in visualisation. Before this job I had never used vray and was pretty bad at 3DSMAX… -
Re: Welcome to 3December at Polycount
I created a list for different holidays in the U.S. observed for 31 days. Not in any particular order and thought each of these could fit some 3D Modeling in them. Inktober has a list and I felt according to the idea about all holidays being in the month of December that @r13 has: We should put a holiday in for every day… -
Re: Am i too old?
Age isn't an issue. But this quote is what I'd be most concerned about in your position. The game industry, and software development in general can be very demanding time-wise. Some companies will institute death marches when in crunch mode. We're talking long hours, weeks on end with no weekends. Not all companies are too… -

Re: Ok, I got some real bad reviews, now what?
I wonder If you've yet to find your passion. Theres so many varying disciplines that youre trying to prove an ability in on your site there, but not one of them stands out. I think multimedia is a bit of a passe term. Find a niche. Try and figure out what you really really enjoy, and then just go for that one thing. I… -
Re: 3DSMAX perpetual license -> softsking?
I don't remember at what price Autodesk was selling their softwares when they had perpetual licenses but i think that it was more than 3k €, maybe i'm wrong. I never paid too much attention to them because they were out of my "pocket" anyway. Of course i have, it was a case of some years ago. There are numerous articles… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge March 2014 (17)
Hi Guys, Here is my overlay for the concept: This is the first time I have done one of these, so hopefully it is right. I am also fairly new to actively posting on polycount, so sorry if I break any rules haha. I'm going to attempt to do a rough blockout of the scene now and try to figure out a timescale for all of this.… -

Re: Perfect Resize - Increasing the resolution of images for print - thoughts?
This list doesn't make a lot of sense, I think. The 'in-eye' density of the pixels/dots varies wildly if you graph it out: I'd say that generally you wanna strive for a PPI density of at leastDPI = 200/(distance in feet) So 1 feet = 200 PPI (phone in hand) 2 feet = 100 PPI (laptop/desktop) 4 feet = 50 PPI (no idea what…
