Re: Extra Credits
I agree, but what purpose would it serve in terms of gameplay or story? Storylines in most triple-A titles are something of an afterthought as it is, let alone the complexities of relationships. Gay or straight, it doesn't immediately lend itself to a compelling gaming experience. The only game I can think of right now… -
Re: How has your Life Changed in the Past Decade?
Here we go then: - Lived in Kyoto for a year - Graduated university with a degree in Japanese and THEN decided I wanted to work as a videogame artist (erk!) - Moved back in with my parents for a year and taught myself 3ds Max and Photoshop - Went travelling around SE Asia with my girlfriend (now wife) - Managed to get a… -
Re: Where to find environment concepts?
This is a dream collection. It physically hurts how awesome it is. It has 7 titles that I'm aware of, but that photo below only shows 6. Haikei Gashuu Kusanagi Literally, "the Kusanagi books of background art." It's a book series. The name in kanji is 背景画集 草薙. Amazon.jp Search (entire collection) Contains environment… -
Re: Barret (FFVII) Fan Art Character Model
I really want to like this... But there are some things i can't get over: 1. Barret's frame is supposed to be incredibly squat, from the concept art through to his world model in the original game, and even his battle model, he's always shown as being this ridiculously broad, almost hulking figure. It's practically a… -
Re: Sketchbook: Mahreen Fatima
Been up to quite a bit lately and am still pretty busy but here's what I've been working on: For a juried school gallery for game development students, I have been working on a small environment centered around a cherry blossom tree with Japanese garden bridges/planks over a small pond as a secondary focal point. I am on a… -
Re: FFX X-2 Brotherhood Sword
In February I received critique on my portfolio which made me make an entire new one. I did that. Then I received critique on the new gallery which has led me to now re-make everything in the new folio, rather than make 2 entire galleries in the same year. So ... I'm asking you to help me become a better artist! What could… -

Re: [WIP] Chick with afro in sci fi/low fi exoskeleton
I would have to add in that the exoskeleton bit looks weak, but I think that could be fixed by adding in some large plates like the Japanese folks are doing with their HAL exoskeleton design. Nothing too fancy, but something to get it out of the medical brace look and into more of a stability/ heavy lifting apparatus. I… -
Re: [Portfolio] Clem EVANS, Environment Artist
Site is alright, but banner is too large as it's creating a full (lower rez) screen of blank space. I'd remove it. Japanese garden is probably the best environment piece, but it's a let-down that there is ony one image of then, then a few oddly cropped assets. It's a running theme that none of your work is presented with… -
Re: Game story?
There's a very strong movement in the industry to kill story. We hate story. Story doesn't belong in games. Games are about gameplay, right? Story is secondary. That's why they all suck! Games don't need no stinkin' stories! Indie devs hate it because cutsenes and characters are expensive and time-consuming to do, so we…
