Re: Portfolio Feedback - Environment Artist / Prop Artist
I think your textures are your weakest point right now. The texture for your drill feels mostly like a tiling smart material with a couple of generated dirt layers on top. There is no story in it, no personal touches. I know it´s not the same kind of drill but take look at the drill on the left, there isn´t rust everywhere… -
Re: Game of Thrones
Women in this world can be married even if they're old. Marriage here is about political and financial power, love has no role to play. Marrying Cersei (pay attention to the spelling, guys ;) to Loras would strengthen the alliance between houses Lannister and Tyrell. This would more or less guarantee that the families… -
Re: Questions about PC build
i5 or i7, i3's are pretty underwhelming. 500watts should be enough power unless your going duel gpus in the future or using a more power hungry gpu like a 980. if you want you could save by going for 16gb's of ram to start and upgrade if you feel it would help. My rig is a few years old now, and 16gb has been working fine… -
Re: Family and the Life of a Game Artist
Well I'm doing quite well. My wife, son and I are living comfortably and we have another baby due in sept. Though it's definetly been a concern of ours that this industry is not known for being very stable and family friendly. You just do what you got to do to survive sometimes. I guess I was pretty lucky to find stable… -
Re: Income Range of Vets
well you have to take many things in to think about. Location of company. Size of the company. Your experience. What do you think you are worth? A person making 40k / year in San Diego isn't living that great compared to someone making 40k / year in North Carolina. Look at cost of living and houses. I loved San Diego but… -
Re: PC build for MAYA & ZBRUSH
well, looks to me that your proposed video card is pretty slow compared to nowadays standard. is there a reason to go with last generation here for a new build (compatibility with maya or other...?). you're not going to need top of the line but e.g. the 1070 is a nice speed bump, good to have for realtime renders,… -
Re: most games are not becoming better!!!!
Dustin, usually when a classic game comes out on for PSN/XBL, I'd go for the PSN version just because of the controller, the DPad on the 360 just doesn't work well. Since I played the hell out of Earthworm Jim when I was younger, the experience isn't all that now, in fact I find it easier to finish than when I was younger.… -
Re: Not Your Average Software Debate
In addition to learning 3d modeling packages, have you emphasized the importance of learning 2D foundational art skills with your son? Artists who have an analogue drawing background tend to produce superior work, particularly when it comes to sculpting due to having intimate knowledge of forms, tone, color theory, etc.… -
Re: Someguy's concept art
Since i dont know anywhere else to ask which hero out of these heroes do you think i should design a set for: Ignoring the fact that some of the heroes are not viable for item submission yet. Also if you dislike my previous work dont let that affect your decision :p . P.s. added a rough name of the sets next to each hero… -
Re: iPhone development
From a development perspective, the iPhone is the best deal going. Nowhere else are you going to find a completely open market (not XBLA, PSN, certainly not other phones), one central store (PC is too fragmented, and piracy is a concern), a high install base, a single hardware target, and a fine machine with a unique…
