Re: somebody want my job?
God this sounds exactly like MY first job in Van. Helikon Technologies out in New Westminster back in 2000. :/ Missed paycheques, Long hours, weekends and the lot. Long story short LISTEN TO ROB. He knows what he's talking about (BTW I love your posts on thechaosengine). I'm owed over $8,000 and that's a LOT considering… -
Re: Push Animation
Speaking as a beginner myself (so take it with a grain of salt): The legs should push until they're straight (or at least mostly straight) before stepping forward. In other words, rather than moving the right foot forward at frame 98, when the knee is still bent, you may be able to delay it until 100, or 102. I would also… -
Re: Outdoor lighting
I'm also always looking around for free environment lighting tutorials. My steps would be the same mentioned here before: - ambient occlusion / light dome or GI - nice 3-point light setup + ambient light Maybe this helps you: I joined the Unearthly Challende 09 and had this WIP thread where i played around with lighting… -
Re: Futuristic environment.
Just because in real life settings things are a certain way doesnt mean it translate properly. Can you provide some pictures of your "industrial" images that you are using for reference?

Re: fantasy character

If everything works out there should be a painted version. Jon, costs haven't been finalised however I believe the print is costing around £300, the… -
Re: movies you recommend ?
2 Documentaries I recommend for artists: "Jiro's Dream Of Sushi", about a Japanese sushi master who supposedly makes the best sushi in the world and who attained this reputation through a lifetime of perfecting his techniques. "Tim's Vermeer", about the co-founder of Newtek the maker of Lightwave, who went on a multi-year… -
Re: Entry for a contest, please come and vote
No problems Ghostscape, I'll say this myself; I'm not very good at either asking favors or forum interactions and etiquette, which is why I actually prefer the direct nature of irc. That said I'm really sorry if it offended you guys in any way, fact is I put time into this and was fairly confident about my piece being… -
Re: Google hangout: Friday Beast Night.
Just my 2 cents and a few numbers Coffee/caffeine info from mayo clinic For most healthy adults, moderate doses of caffeine 200 to 300 milligrams (mg), or about two to four cups of brewed coffee a day aren't harmful http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/caffeine/NU00600 Amount of caffeine in one monster: 160mg of caffeine…
