Re: London Polycount Meetups!
you don't want to hear this but i can't resist to party-poop: wrong choice of season to go visit northern europe - especially the aforementioned parts known to be generally on the more chilly, windy and wet side of the spectrum. these are summer destinations. at any rate might want to skip amsterdam and try antwerp… -
Re: Structure for learning anatomy
Glad to help! As for me, I've been kind of back and forth between anatomy sculpting and prop modeling - also trying to make the switch from Blender to Maya for that, which makes it harder for now. I'm conflicted as to which path I want to take, which makes it difficult to really dig deep and focus on a single one. My… -
Re: WTF? There's a reality show for game testers
rofl what a dumb, although hilarious looking show. dont they know that company's hire QA people up by the dozen? at least when I did testing for SCEA for a summer they would hire anyone that had gaming some gaming knowledge and knew how to use a PS2. they make it seem like some glamor job that is hard to get. they have… -
Re: JCVD
I saw it when it was released in France early this summer, pretty cool, unusual role for him and he does surprisingly well. some parts are really attaching and the sequences are very well put together (although not new or revolutionary, just well done). go watch it if you can, especially if you know about his famous silly… -
Re: Fictional surviving Triceratops diary
yep, all the detail at the moment is going to get another once over. Thats all it should need, a test bake has already been done and not as much as I thought was lost, another detail pass should solve this. I think when I graduate this summer I would like to come back to this idea and maybe get a playable version in UDK.… -
Re: Sketchbook: Adam Hodgson - back to digital
Thanks Zelzann - and yeah it's a bit confusing, the walls bow out (supposed to be in a ship) and it throws things off. Working with a 3D program for perspective can create a lot of tangents you wouldn't think about just jumping in. Guess the thing to learn from that; just because it's right, doesn't mean it'll look right… -
Re: Grenadier
Pope Adam, thank you for taking your time on your critique. I know that mirroring UVs could be done, but could you elaborate more on that and how it'll work if I bake it? I've a lot of pro's do it and I always wondered why exactly do they do that. As far as spec - yes i've had some trouble finding a good spec tutorial. And… -
Re: Question: Student Aid for Abroad/Non-Accredited Schooling
Rai, you might want to consider attending a stateside Atelier. I attend Academy of Classical Design located in NC. Jeffrey Mims is very talented and has a gift when it comes to teaching. The school offers a scholarship to new students, which would be helpful in your case. The websight is academyofclassicaldesign.com. If… -
Re: 3DSMax UV Tools
Oh yeah, exactly! That's just what I was getting at. I had to learn Maya in a week or so last summer, for work. The modelling tools lacked some features that I was used to working with all the time in Max, but I just learned to work with them and managed to get along fine. You didn't see me running into the forums and… -
Re: Creatively nocturnal?
yah dude, early on this past summer i had about a week or two free and just kept working on small projects.. ended up working on stuff all night and sleeping all day. had to switch back to a 'normal schedule' after that, but i definitely had a pretty good flow of ideas during that time.. joked with a few friends that my…
