I just had the guy who was supposed to do code on the game me and some friends were working on bail on us and I can't find a replacement because the Unity forums are down. So I'm going to focus on revising my demo reel. I've spent the last year creating a lot of stuff but never really finishing any of it. I guess what I'm…
dude i feel like im running out of time every day. i know what you mean. i havent produced anything worthwhile in a long time. then again, im on vacation, but still. you need some kind of forced deadline i think. that always makes me work better. when i was in school i would do a whole scene in like two weeks. then after i…
Some wise words from a class I took online with Cesar Dacol Jr "Time and time again the lack of drive will come from the lack of interest. The lack of interest always comes from your lack of focus. You lack of focus comes from your lack of organization. Are we seeing a pattern developing here? Keep it organized , you will…
because money women and power come from people who say they make video games for a living :p seriously though it takes a rare group of people who enjoy this and can get slapped around a bit and get back up
That imaginary clock in your head ain't helping. There is no magic time limit when it comes to growth, or when you can do/not do things. I didn't even start doing art for games until I was in my 30's. If you are 25 right now, your time is not running out...you are still quite young.
Agreed. Also, how do you think its going to be when you're doing this for a job? They're going to give you assets at some point that you'll not be excited about creating, you have to find a way to get through it, its part of the job. Of course, "get this done, or I find someone who will" is pretty motivating. You can't…
Not to belittle this thread, we all know how brutal the art road can be at times. but i can't help but think polycount is falling apart from all these darned "emo" threads. This threads been made hundreds of times. When i first started coming to this place, there was so much 3d awesomeness that noobs like us would be…
Thanks for the replies. Sniper, I don't so much have ADHD, the title was somewhat of an exaggeration, but it is depressing. Fortunately I generally live a happy life, it's just this aspect that's getting me down. But I think to be honest you've hit the nail on the head in stating I'm taking on big projects that are never…
I suppose most people go through that once in a while. Some more some less. I'm hardly ever content with anything i do most of the time. But that drives me forward, too. It makes me mad at myself but pushes me to get better. If it doesn't look the way you want it to look, it doesn't have to mean "you just generally suck".…
Ok file this under 'Emo'. Last couple of weeks, maybe month or so I've been having a very hard time doing anything at all worth talking about when it comes to game art. It's driving me crazy, I see so much that inspires me, so much that motivates me, but the last 3 projects I've started, I've just scrapped and deleted in…
