Happy new years polycount! So I've recently graduated from uni and I think its about time I made a portfolio. (most of my uni work does not relate to character art :( ) I've been blessed with amazing parents who are willing to support me so I'm not going to waste that time. For my first project, I want to try an…
hello, this will be the first time, I create something for a challenge - so please do not rip me apart - but when you do, please add some feedback, that helps me learning, hehehe... I already own Substance Painter & Designer Indie and will use it of course. Other apps: B2M 3 for quick roughness maps and some…
I have always been a huge fan of hand-painted textures but never tried to make some myself. So this time I figured I would hand-paint everything. I tried to make my own version of Elwynn Forest from World of Warcraft. It has been one of the most difficult but also fun things I have done here at Playgroundsquad. Since I…
If there's somewhere you're really gunning for, just try to do one knockout piece for them in their style. If you really want to charm them, make it using the same software they use in-house, but that's less of a big deal. Blizzard in particular is a little notorious for pretty much glossing over any portfolio that isn't…
Yeah I agree, I think the game looks much worse than the two previous games in general. It's as if every environment and enemy is covered with a noisy normalmap. There are still some cool set designs in the game but for the most part it's corridors or blizzards with a 2m vision radius. Also Isaac has his head exposed to…
Wow guys. Thank you so much for all the support! Its been really overwhelming! Im really glad everyone likes the level! A really big thanks to Blizzard and Victor Lee for providing such epic material to work from!! Also thanks to Zbrush for making such a bad ass art tool! This weekend I will put together a comprehensive…
Your website is simple. Which is good. You put your work out front which is what people want. However, your environment work is lacking variety. It is very evident that you are inspired by Blizzard. Try to do some more realistic work to bring some variety back into your portfolio. Also try something other then Fantasy, you…
I'm curious how many of those 0 rating reviews are people who actually bought the game... A while back when the LOTR trilogy was taking preorders on bluray it was announced they were going to release it in the theatrical cut, then 6 months later they'd release the directors cuts. A blatant attempt to get people to cave and…
I don't play musical games, so I guess I've missed the point as to what Activision actually intend to do with Cobain's likeness. I'm guessing it's better than the aforementioned herpes billboard (though surely Love would be the better candidate for that commercial), and worse than, say, Beatles Rock Band - I thought if…
Looking good! The only few things I can point are: 1. Your model might a too high distance from the belly to the ground, the blizzard concept and models suggest it's much more close to the surface. 2. Your green sac could use some more pronounced features and a more "bubbly" surface like the concept art, this would help…
