There seems to be an ongoing survey on Artstation that he participated in, which took him half an hour to complete. In his opinion, the real purpose behind this exercise is to find out how people feel about AI, but they tried to hide that topic among a host of other questions, and the answer options were limited and…
So... I liked my desert environment but wanted a ship background as well. I downloaded a free 'sci-fi' corridor but it wasn't giving the right vibes so I ended up making a super quick ship background last weekend based on some in game screenshots. And look, I'm not an environment artist, I won't pretend to be one, but this…
Hi! In busy, urban places with pedestrians/cyclists, I would put them at least at a height that people don't bonk their heads. I'm sure there written rules for this which could be looked up, but ultimately I would go with references (maybe some video walkthroughs on yt?) and what feels right in game. Generally with such…
Your pillar: Your sculpt definitely has improved, but the damage almost feels like its been almost 'weather polished', meaning over time the damage was smoothed out. That works for sea rocks and olllddddddd stairs, and such, but for this instance I think the damage should definitely be more fresh than in your current…
* It'll depend on the overall complexity of the kit and the player's camera perspective. I'd lean towards separating them for the sake of layer management . * Manifold meshes give you some wiggle room for tweaking/offsetting without light leaks, but you'll pay for it with your lightmap and you'll inevitably have some…
Yes-ish. The stainless steel trim looks like stainless, but the paint is too flat. The paint looks like its been aged quite a bit, but the stainless is almost chrome, which would indicate its brand new. The two need to match each other in terms of weathering. Unless its thick mud, I wouldn't bother adding anything to the…
Hi everyone! Thanks for the crits so far, keep them coming. I'm not really sure what I'm doing when it comes to lighting, has any one got any tips? Are there any good books that anyone knows? What I have at the moment is four big spots pointing down from above and a sky light which has a brighter lower brightness than the…
Those sort of dark stripes from blocked wheels racing cars do in turns. Could somebody suggest one and what the hell should be the promt wording . Whatever I try come with something pathetic looking . Photoshop can generate something quite nicely looking in regular perspective camera , still unusable due to low res but…
Starting to get the main interior blocked out. I plan on using a trim sheet + weighted normals for all the long metal bits. I always have a pretty hard time getting interior sizes correct. Also, these doors have a very weird 3 segment design that I couldn't find reference for. Definitely still adjusting everything.
No, I believe the issue is that the OP just doesn't have a clue how it works. I was in a similar situation when I started out. I just wanted work, but I had no idea how the hiring works. So I couldn't figure out what exactly is the right thing to do. Fortunately now you have places like Polycount, where the hiring people…
