Re: Blender Mega Thread
I am going to make some generalizations here, so bear with. I'm sure there are counter examples, but I'm looking more at trends than specifics. I think that the point that is often missed is that philosophically, from a design standpoint, Blender is very different from Maya and Max (I assume, as I use Maya and have only a… -
Re: Uvw unwrap ear
Ok so I just finished working on, and fixing, the ear unwrap problem to an extent. In the end, I just unwrapped one ear, detached it in main mesh, and mirrored it over to the other side and reattached to the head giving me a duplicate set of identical uv's. There is still some warping and such, but since my models ears are… -
Re: WIP: Classic Doom shotgun, based on Mossberg (large images)
If you're doing what I think you're doing with the wear and tear, and that trigger is in-fact brass then you should dull it quite a bit with only the part your finger would touch being shiny, like brass does :) Great looking shotgun though. Reference the sights, they look a little too high on the back, looking a little… -
Re: Vickers Medium Mk. II - British interwar period tank
Looks good but you might try a few texture variations, like a camo / snow camo /perhaps just straight from factory grey? just to see what you would prefer. Add in a bit of wear and tear, like pealing on the letters and such, also I think that gear at the back on the tracks would be grey one way or another, but other than a… -
Re: CGSociety's interview with Kevin Lanning
As for the time frame, i know Kev has gotten a pretty quick. 3 years ago it may have taken 2 months per character, and i think near the end of gears he was up to 4 weeks or so, but much longer for the bigger critters. He literally touches every inch of a mesh, and never neglects details. He is extremely patient Kev is a… -

So the project I chose was to make a cinematic intro trailer to a game called "Knighttime Adventures". You might be thinking whats that ?

Re: How to AAA skill?
This i hear happens monthly: https://polycount.com/discussion/238326/the-bi-monthly-environment-art-challenge-march-april-101#latest so i suppose you could go backwards and on your own time do some of the stuff that interests you, no matter how small and eventually make a scene of all of it, perhaps? Practice makes… -
Re: What Are You Working On? 2014 Edition
Doesnt really feel like an orc to me. Looks like a regular ol' human with a short nose and and big pointy ears, wearing orc like gear. I think you could push the "orciness" a bit more. -
Re: How much of your success do you attribute to talent?
I'm surprised to hear that only one other person has mentioned networking as a part of their success. I would say almost every job I've ever had has been due to the fact that I happened to know the right person at the time. Don't overlook networking, its vital to a successful career. But I still think no matter the amount… -
Re: LASIK eye surgery
My girl friend had it done about 4 years ago and now she's back to glasses for reading and has some problems with night vision so it isn't (or wasn't) all it's cracked up to be. For me, having to wear glasses to read or paint would defeat the purpose of getting the surgery done, but I'm lucky in that I'm far-sighted so my…
