Hello I hope you can help, I would like to ask you what you would expect to see from Games Art and Design graduates these days? The reason I ask is that our BA Games Art Degree programme is currently undergoing it’s five year review so it’s a chance for me to make adjustments to the course. All university degrees go…
Oh boy... I highly suggest taking some business and marketing courses if you're serious about this, right now you seem to be barely into the idea stage. Using a third party site to handle the store and web side doesn't instill confidence if you are competing with established asset stores. Selling your own work as a one off…
Hey Hito, this is a really cool idea. I like the tension of the guy not seeing the monster at first, and how the final action happens just of screen. I think your arm and leg movements are pretty good too. If you were to change them, I'd make them a bit more wild to contrast the smooth motions of the monster. 2 things I'd…

Most Artists like Stubbles said question themselves. It's hard putting yourself and your work out there and getting NO back all the time. Just keep at it and keep your head up.

I understand that a lot of artist save inspirational images to your hard drive as well. How do you guys like to keep your own library organized? For example, a friend…
metalness is a grayscale map. That means black and white. Black is not metal, white is completely metal. Many types of textures use grayscale values like this. A lot of times, you can refer to a black/white map as a mask. Because you are masking off parts, and exposing others. You could make a black/white map for your…
One thing you could do is block out your base character using polyspheres as different subtools, getting each shape into place and general proportion and then Dynamush them together into a single shape once you're happy with it for finer detailing. I've found the method to be super helpful for a couple of big reasons. - It…
I was curious as to what brushes some of you guys use when making head textures. I've gone over some of the video tutorials, and just can't seem to get the stroke the person in the video is getting. If your not using default brushes, would you mind posting the links to the brushsets you use? Thanks guys, its much…
how do you know that isn't what Bobo did? Perhaps becasue YOU are mr. fancypantsshaderman and you can spot fancy specular and raytraced reflection when you see it???
