It is always sad to hear this type of thing especially in this economy and this time of year. Please hit me up if you affected and we can explore a position here at Blizzard Entertainment. My email is kcarvalho@blizzard.com. -Kenny

Hey everyone I'm trying to learn different types of materials to hand paint. So far I have been trying to practice wood and stone. Crits would be appreciated! For my style I'm trying to go for the blizzard hand painted styles.
Here are my final shots for the Blizzard challenge over at Gameartisans, though I might make own thread for this. since it was ages ago I actually posted anything over at pimpings n previews :poly122: so here is me sharing for once :)
You could do the Blizzard workflow and use real geometry as your base. Bake out a bunch of different mat caps, including a normal, and then use that base to create the hand painted style.
Haha, I definate agree about the handle! The sprockets are simply flare. I pay no attention to functionality this time. All I want is a really cartoony and stylized sword ala Blizzard or something. ^^
David Gibson (Blizzard) hosted a masterclass twitch stream yesterday involving other animators from Twitter. If you missed it you can catch up here! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/218207501

Awesome pic Damn right it's cold! We just got hit with a blizzard here. Outside my front door this morning Standing in the middle of the street I live on My poor kitty
I stand by Blizzard's first core value in most cases. "Gameplay first." Otherwise, we should be making a movie or a book. I can't really recall a game being hindered in gameplay because of its art though.
