Re: Is it a good idea to create map using in-game map editor for a level designer?
If your goal is to just build levels, then it is NOT cheating to use premade assets that come with an engine, or from an asset store. It's the smart thing to do.

Re: Shane Olson's 3D Character Workshop?
@srlake314 this must be a coincidence, I had someone reach out last night asking about this.

Re: Why 3D modelers get more known in CG world than animators

Re: Portfolio opinions, am I ready for entry level employment?
Thanks so much for the detailed advice / suggestions. I really like the suggestions about communicating with other artists and possibly collaborating on projects because to be honest, I think that's one thing that I know will help me develop as it's something I haven't done and input from others is so important to me.

Re: So what are you working on?
I'm helping ghost_rider (re: cgtalk) with his entry by doing the stage that his character will be posed and rendered from. I've finally got to work with that mofo and I'm stoked, so I figured I'd show you guys where I am at so far. The story: The character is a sniper and artillery mix team. So, with the idea of Shadows… -
