First Character Model [Knight]
I recently decided to take up modelling as a hobby :) I'm quite keen to develop a medieval mod for sc2 and relying on external modeling has proven to be a little unpredictable to say the least :) So, without further adue, I present to you my first attempt at modeling a 3D character: Starcraft 2 is a top-down strategy game… -
New Rig for rendering?
Hello, I'm writing for advice on what to buy. My current rig is: System: Windows 8.1 64-bit Gigabyte Z97X-SLI Intel i7-4790k CPU 4ghz (8 CPUs) memory 16 gb Corsair - Vengeance I built this rig when I first started my hobby in cg animation a bit over 2 yrs ago. I'm now feeling limited by its incapability for handling large… -

My name is Marcos Garcia Geymonat, I'm a Character Artists/Generalist, I've been making game characters for epic's unreal marketplace as a hobby for a few years until recently when I signed up and finished a character art mentorship at Think Tank Training Centre.

Re: Why don't big film studios just use Blender?
As a modeller, specialising in mechanical hard surface. In my humble opinion Blender certainly has the credentials too compete favourably alongside other popular DCC polygonal suites but for the time being at least, if your aim is to pursue an industry career then an ADSK toolset (...either Max or Maya) would be my advice… -
Re: Felicity Smoak - need advice oh great polycount gurus :)
Hi Shiniku, Thanks for the feedback, lot of good points. I don't have a specific platform target for this character, but I do have a couple of little never ending hobby projects I'm playing with and one of them is a mobile game. So I guess I'm trying to make sure that workflow I'm practising has the ability to operate at… -
Re: EVE Online
I was in a Pirate corp for 3 years on and off and it was some of the best moments in gaming as a hobby, period. I Even went to Fanfest 2011 in Iceland and met up with some of the guys. Imagine an Alcoholics Anonymous LAN Party event on an iceberg for Star Trek geeks. I loved it. EVE eclipses other online games, however its… -
Re: Indie/Unpaid/Royalty Jobs with the intention of making money?
These are pretty good reading: http://www.povonline.com/cols/COL209.htm http://www.povonline.com/cols/COL210.htm http://www.povonline.com/cols/COL224.htm They aren't legitimate jobs.

Re: Becoming a 3D Character Artist, what is your opinion?
I wish you the best, because character art is definitely a challenging and satisfying role in this industry. It is a good plan imo, break in as quick as possible because that is when you get access to experience and knowledge from coworkers, that is when the real learning begins. And thats why you should respect your… -
Re: hard angles on curved objects
Sorry if I sound judging but a plugin to solve a problem is avoiding the issue. I'm following 3D classes in my university at the moment and we started from the basics how to model low 1st and then high while using only what max offers us by default thus ensuring that we can do it without a plugin or script. I don't know if… -
Re: Cooljay's Progress Thread
since your here though i can only assume you want to make a career around 3d or at-least a hobby, so why if you see the problems, do you not fix them? I would think having a interest in 3d would also give you the drive to always be always improving on your work, but you don't seem to do that, what is the point of working…
