I couldn't figure out what the hell that was caused by, I checked the texture in Photoshop and it doesn't have one, it might be happening when down ressing the texture from PSD to TIF quality. Has anyone else ever had that happen with a normal map before? I will have to try and fix it this evening. I'm currently fighting…
Here are some links about the character skill trees. I couldn't manage to find Brick's talent info.

Hey Guru, sorry for the delay I completely missed the notification about your question. This would be an ongoing contract, most likely with regular work for 2-6 months and more if we all work well together. I've been working with freelance artists for nearly 17 years now and as a principal I like to keep the discussions…
There's a few ways, the first being to FFD it into the rough shape then boolean it and extrude the edges into the mesh. Another similar way would be to do that but using Slideknit rather than FFD for the form then boolean it once again.…
Hi Simon, I bought your tutorial a few weeks ago and I just wanted to say thank you! It's everything I hoped it to be and much more. I've been using Maya for the last 17 years and in your tutorial I'm still discovering so many useful things I didn't know before. Hoping to see more excellent tuts from you in the future ;)…
hey i was just wondering that is his is a SCAR MK-16 (SCAR-L) then why did you make a 20 round magazine for it. I'm pretty sure 20 round stanags aren't very common anymore with anyone other than marksmen. you may have got you refs mixed up with the mark 17 (SCAR-H). sorry if that was a little to nit picky for you, if so…
same strictness towards the movie industry? If you're 17 or under you can't see rated R movies in the theaters. You can't buy them or rent them either, I was foiled as a teen trying to buy some horror movies. My guess any regulation laws on the video game industry will result in the same thing as the movie industry... more…
So I ended up going with this one, since it has a low mounting pedestal and the lower arm doesn't have a high fixed rise angle. This lets me fold it off to the side of my desk, and then pull it out and hover it above the center of my desk when I'm using it. I fold it away because there's a Wacom underneath it that I use…
You could also set up the UVs so they are overlapping, since every side of a barrel is practically the same. Rather than having that long strip at the bottom, you could divide it into 4 shells and overlap them. Also, any reason you decided to go with 17 sides? Such an odd number :P 16 would probably be more common, and it…
It really just depends on the game, the engine, and what limits you are working with. http://speedhunters.com/archive/2011/11/17/behind-the-scenes-creating-cars-need-for-speed-run.aspx You are almost always going to have to use tris, cars are definitely not designed with polygons in mind, and you are most likely not going…
