Re: Aztec Sorcerer WIP
I think if you can relate one (or two at most) animal type into his costume, it would add much more character. The last 3 headware are more appealing to me because I see a bird, jaguar, and fish in each one respectively. If you continue this down to the rest of his outfit, the generic muscle bound character will be more… -
Re: The Sedentary Life Of A Dev: Staying healthy in the workplace?
don't really have a plan other than: no snacking, no soda, no liquor (beer or wine together with the food are okay though). Stick to fish / poultry (if there's no bird flu going on here) over red meat. I don't have a car so I walk if I have to. And I stopped smoking loooong ago. If you do, better stop doing that before… -
Re: new halo 3 shot
To me Halo 3's player models remind me of cheap plastic action figures- maybe the whole game is really based around a mythical playset in some kid's attic? I'm gonna look for cheap fishing wires when I see ships flying in or in outer space scenes Hopefully the chararacter art team will have enough polish time to fix up the… -

Re: Getting paid!
Wrote this a while back based on industry salary averages.. it's helped me and others a great deal with pricing freelance work... My first rigged characters from a couple of years ago cost the client $500 a pop - single 1024 on 2500 tris mesh with a 'standard' rig (no weapons mount points or anything like that) -… -
Re: Alphas + doublesided polys
that probably depends on what engine you're preparing it for, but I believe it should be alright. I recently used double sided polies for transparent fish fins, although the verts of the two planes were un-welded. It worked fine in renderware, and we're using an older version, so I imagine a more modern engine could handle… -
Final fight style beat em up, looking for a 2d graphic artist, equal revenue share!
Hello. This is a post looking for a graphic artist to work on a 2d beat em up type game. Important note: the graphic style is 16bit, similar to SNES games.

Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game Models
Confusing thread is confusing :D To the OP : - Alright, so we have established that there is no "then" VS "now" in regards to polygon modeling - it's all been the same for 20+ years. So these screenshots of the Gollum and Kratos wireframes are hardly relevant. - No sculpting is needed in order to get a high detailled look… -
Is Fibermesh outdated to use now?
Like can you get good results with it? I'm not sure if that's what Hossein Diba uses in his final renders? I'm trying to decide how to do the hair on a character I've been spending too long on I made a really complicated outfit with so many subtools so i feel like putting it all into maya (and probably resizing it) would… -
Re: How To Get Prepared For a Job Interview
Oh God I needed to see this thread yesterday so bad. I just potentially ruined my chances at getting hired at a game studio Tips I learned 1. Prepare your entire portfolio in a zip file, with short text files in each project explaining the context of what you did,project requirements,etc 2. For the love of god make sure…
