incomplete: pumpkin forrest
okay, so.. it is quite clear that i enjoy never finishing anything, so, it is about time i start something to not finish again. i do not wish spending my free time being productive.. or something, it makes too much sense. so anyway. the idea is to make a stranged forrest and some type of cliffside for that bobolo goblin i… -
Re: Joe's Recent Work
Ben Apuna, Goraaz: Thanks for the crit. I've changed the goblin's spec map as you suggested, and added a subtle AO in the diffuse. I still don't think there's enough variation, but it doesn't seem to change much even when I make the map high contrast. I've attached the new images as well as the diffuse and specular maps.… -
Re: Valve considering user funded game development
i like the way taleworlds did mount&blade a lot better. it started off really simple. they released an early alpha, and the players paid very little for it. they could give input on the forums, and at the same time they beta-tested it, and all sorts of stuff. as the game improved the price gradually increased, until it was… -
How to properly bake multiple sub-tools into one texture map?
School's started back up again. Our instructor threw us a choice for one of three meshes to roll with that we need to texture, so I picked the goblin, which is already UV'ed.

Re: Getting that first job
Thanks Equanim. The current plan is just that. The goblin character was my first Zbrush character, I spent probably 1 year and a half redoing him constantly as I learned as I went.

Re: Spider-man 3!!!!
better than one, worse than two. dunst was irritating & throughout, i was kind of hoping she was going to get the same treatment as gwen stacy in the comic (snap!). peter parker is not emo. every thing about whichever-goblin he was stunk, though the first fight was done pretty well. but venom was not only done wrong, it… -

Re: "Just keep doing what you're doing!"
To try and break the chain of "take a break" posts, my advice is to break the goal down instead. "Working for blizz!" is a nice goal. What do you need to be able to do, to get that job? What skills do you need? Then break down those skills in steps you can take to get better at that skill. For example, a character artist… -
Re: Your favourite artbooks
If we're looking "The Art of..." typed books, then The Oddworld Inhabitants book might be my favourite it goes through each of the games, including several of the cancelled ones, and discusses development and aesthetic choices. It's also really pretty. https://www.ballisticpublishing.com/books/oddworld/ Goblins of The… -
Developer Diary - Fantasy Side Project
Hey all! We (Gavin and Jamie) have started a small side project as a way to learn new skills, give purpose to our personal work, and generally explore ideas. We have been actively posting on social media about our progress and/or experiments and figured a home for all of them may be a good idea so we can elaborate and have…
