Re: Polycounts in next gen games thread!
depends on the character design, really. just look at horizon, we're not talking about a mostly nude bald fighter from some boxing game. layers of cloth, jewelry, hair, fur. all that adds up. In the end it comes down to the design of a character and how close you will get. Last gen a lot of things needed to be baked on and… -
Re: Pro Players looking for sets
Konras; I don't know how to get to hao, except through tiffany, who has reached out to a lot of sea and chinese players about this thread and getting them to contribute. So to get in contact with hao, I go through her. :p -

Re: Who got an Xbox360 then?
Next time I'm close to a store I'll get myself an early xmas gift. I haven't seen many games to get me excited yet though. I'll probably get PGR even though I'm not a fan of "arcade" racing games (I designed Rallisport so I guess that makes me a hypocrit but what the hell..). Did Kameo turn out good? The saturation levels… -
Re: I got a question for game developers
I'd recommend not divulging too much time into any single asset before you get all the pieces working together in engine. For instance, get all the enviro, fx, animation, characters, and whatever other art assets for one level to passable quality and make sure it all works before you go into polishing of any specific… -
Re: "next-gen" eyes
oh yeah for the red its painted, and approaches a flesh tone for the "white" of the eye, i use a flesh tone for the white so the highlight really pops at all times. for the iris, its an exaggerated normal map, the geo is flat. another trick to get them to pop and look really good in game is to use a slightly desaturated… -
Re: How the F#*K do i texture this
If this was a 3rd person game and it was background detail, I might see if I could get away with hotspot texturing with decals for the labels. Wouldn't do that for a first person cockpit. For first person, I'd use a lot of geo to control the normals and shading for bevels and not try to bake that out. -
Re: Lets hear about those... gory, FUN, injuries.
Oh no not one of these. Why not? It begins...*sigh* Some pretty gruesome stories guys glad you all made It out okay. I will add some of mine. About 10 years old: Walking down a street with my mom I look back to see a classmate/friend from school, so eager to say hi to him and look cool, (I guess) I forget to stop walking,… -
3D Environment Artist Potfolio Critique/Feedback (Stylized)
Hi everyone! I'm an aspiring game artist trying to land my first job in games- I've submitted (mostly speculative) applications to various studios but haven't managed to get any interviews, jobs for juniors also seem to be quite scarce right now haha. I talked to a recruiter at an event over the weekend and he suggested… -
[WIP] Overwatch Widowmaker Fanart Skin
Hello to my fellow polycounters! I’ve been working on a character in the evenings after my day-job, in hopes of pushing my portfolio forwards. In the past I’ve either had a fairly generalist portfolio, or the chosen designs were not visually strong. I’ve reflected a lot lately, and decided to push forwards with a stylized…
