asian female practice
practicing my female character sculpting again. Made the mesh from scratch like usual. I'm just about to hit my 1 year mark since trying to be a character artist. about my 8-9 month mark for Zbrush. I'm glad I didn't stick to Mudbox lol. Hopefully I keep improving. Hitting a wall is always scary. -

Re: [unity][wip] Sci-fi interior , modularity and workflow practice

The idea is having a bit everything .. test and showcase different types of art assets in the same scene : so i thought of some rocks, and next would be some kind of architecture ruins inside the cave and an alien plant growing out of those. There's a risk something can… -
Should I practice with triangles if I want to work in games industry?
