Re: Static camera scene: High poly VS Pre-rendered
No, you don't need to unwrap. As I said above, you're essentially just creating illustrations so you have ultimate freedom. I suggest looking into the render pass/paintover workflow. You can save a huge amount of time as you don't need to create production assets. If you want you can just use uvw box mapping. Remember that… -
Re: Student Portfolio Critique

Re: The problem with the gaming industry is that developers make too much
This is true. He does go out of his way to ignore how profit-driven corporations operate.

Re: New to 3D art looking for help

Re: Cool painting - Bad concept - What 3d artists are looking for in concept art
I think the most important thing in establishing the concept-to-finish process, is being aware of what the function of the concept is in your specific pipeline, and being aware of that on later stages. Some concepts will be broader, more general, and will require your 3D artist to take design liberties (if he's a capable… -

Re: arabs arrested for buying too many cellphones....
This arrest was warrented IMO,thats alot of red flags,if they were planning on attacking attacking charge em and send em to jail,if not let em go.

Re: Giacometti sculpture fetches £65 million at Sotheby's auction
Ok, putting skill aside and looking at the work of say Jackson Pollock invokes no feelings yet people bought it for ridiculous amounts of money because it was cool to do so, the same applies here as I hope to demonstrate... To answer your second question, they are all sculptures and the last two are modern ones so how… -
Re: Company policy on side-projects
It depends on the employee contract you sign. Some companies stipulate that any and all work you do while employed by them is their property. Some companies simply require that you not be producing products that might directly compete with their business. The easiest way to get around such stipulations is to create your…
