Hey mote,I'm glad you join the discussion :) ( & thanks again for all the tips you have already give to me in the past days :) ) Today i was keep practicing,unfortunately i can't follow your suggestion about the metal right now cause I was already started working on the floor of the plaza (because if i have to practice on…
Hey OP, This vid is a beast to teach you the techniques behind straight lines and curves: [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3lApsNmdwM"]EPISODE 36 Traditional Mediums - YouTube[/ame] Keep in mind that it takes a ridiculous amount of practice. Ridiculous. Even after drawing for a year every day I still will sometimes…
Soooooooooooooooooooooo its been about a year since I updated this thread but I said to I would get back into the habit of recording my work here regularly, Partly for my own sanity but hoping to draw on the collective knowledge of the awesome polycount users and hopefully contribute a bit more than what I was before. I've…
Its more like...what you know, plus who you know, plus a lot of luck. Honestly, threads like this aren't helping you. If you want to get your name out there to know people..threads like this are more damaging than helpful. I'm not going to remember you for how awesome you are, I'm going to remember you for making posts…
Practice, practice, practice! Honestly, you need to spend hours most days just chipping away at techniques and getting better. It's not an easy process, but it is so satisfying once you get there. Follow tutorials (specifically for games art) and improve your modelling and texturing skills. Learn about normal mapping,…
Hey there, and welcome to Polycount! You're one step closer to becoming a better 3D Artist :) It's good to crank out a project and get practice with the flow of modeling-texturing. Whenever starting a project, think of things that you need practice with, and challenge yourself. With that in mind, be realistic and pick…
Hi, Im 14 and I've wanted to make works of art, to be a concept artist, and make video games. But I have a big obstacle to overcome... I am turning away from my dream a bit, because I realize I am horrible at art. I have a wacom bamboo, and I have tried to make many things on it. All of which end up like something a 3 year…
TBH, I really enjoy the bus! I think it shows great texturing ability, and the ability to efficiently model in a low poly environment! If all of your portfolio pieces started being on this level, you can definitely land a JR job, if not higher with some practice! Ask yourself these questions: Where do I want to be 5yrs…
@dwgagner You`re right, and in general I would agree with you. But I think It all depends on your goal for this challenge. The goal of this challenge is to finish textured lowpoly model withing deadline and that is very important. Often when people are trying to do something better, but it is impossible because they still…
Practice practice practice. Books and tutorials are helpful but only get you so far, and has been debated here and elsewhere that they hinder you more than help you. I am currently a student learning game art and I constantly feel like I need to improve and come to these forums when I can to get input. I find that the more…
