So it's just a dozer? I would say this is better than say an env tutorial but the main downside is that if a lot of people have done that tutorial, they know exactly what it looks like. Once someone industry related sees that you have a tutorial item in ur folio, it kind of negates it a bit. Plus your version has to be AT…
I recently got my hands on a really helpful tutorial. It wasn't a "take me by the hand and guide me" tutorial but rather it was a time lapse with voice over. Anyway, my question is, would adding the finished model to my portfolio be ok, even though it was from a tutorial? I got The Dozer Set from Eat3d.
Yeah I would refrain from putting tutorial results on a portfolio. If an employer sees that, they will wonder if can do the work expected of you without a tutorial for how to make exactly that. It seems like you get the idea of learning from them and applying it to your own stuff, but thats not going to come through to…
One reason im going through the Dozer tute is because my workflow is not very good I.e I don't understand the block out stage, medium, large and small detail pass and final pass, my workflow is nothing like this and I want to learn it.

Thanks for the feed back. You're right Dustinbrown, I guess im nowhere near ready to put a folio together yet, im still learning how to texture properly in photoshop and I haven't even started on PBR yet. As far as my modeling skills go, I can model most things I put my mind to but texturing is something I have little…
Thanks for the advice. I wont be adding the tutorial model to my folio, instead once I finish the tute. I will take what I've learn't and work on my own Bulldozer or as Kanga suggested, a forklift. I love this place :)
your hp's looks good though, you shouldn't have to be handheld trough the dozer tutorial, I'm guessing you want to learn about texturing more then modeling, then why not just apply the same methods to your own model?
