Re: Maybe give up and jump from fifth floor
This is the problem, you are probably stressed and desperate to become anything in order to escape military service, which I understand and Im sorry to hear that you are placed in such a tough situation.

Re: Joker Bust: Batman Arkham Asylum Inspired
DJ_Aaron: Thanks! [SF]Three9: I get what you are saying… I think I’m going to push the makeup contrast a little more based on your crit. I do feel that the skin to makeup transition is lost a little in the textures. I’ll probably keep the rest though as I’m afraid if I push the contrast too much he will begin to look like… -
Re: Freelancers versus outsource studio?
thanks @NikhilR @Fabi_G lots of good tips and things to consider. my hunch is that any outsource studio which would be professional enough to be worth dealing with probably is expensive enough that only makes sense at a AAA scale. e.g. a studio like rockstar probably has a team of people just to liaison between art team… -
Re: TOMB RAIDER Environment Art : Rogelio Olguin
Kevin Johnstone: Thanks man really coming from you is awesome :) I have yet to play Bioshock.

Re: Practicality vs Aesthetics
Blais: I absolutely love that concept. I have a bunch of that guy's stuff saved somewhere -- his world building is awesome.

That concept… -

Sculpting Miniatures!
Hey fellow Polycounters! Thought I'd start a P&P before I get too far into my adventure. Currently working on a project with a couple of friends of mine, the idea is to sculpt up a few miniatures and ponder up some rulesets for our own tabletop wargame. I'm working with Maya and ZBrush then exporting into .STL, which will… -
How could I, and should I, hold a contest?
I am just a member of the lay public, a Star Citizen fanboy and supporter (as in donating money to fund development). I have absolutely no official affiliation with any game company. However I am looking to garner attention for a ship concept which I am lobbying hard for on the Star Citizen forums. I have good writing…
