Im loving this environment. The look of that harsh lighting on the mech gives it a great stylization. Really cool shapes with a clean read on the geometry. Your second pass at lighting is a nice improvement. Two things that I think you can do that will really pop this another notch: 1. Another lighting pass. Right now it…
I've posted this link before but thought I would share it again. http://www.bcbusinessonline.ca/bcb/top-stories/2009/06/03/rough-play-vancouver-video-games The reality is that digital art can be sent over a wire. Any work that can be sent over a wire is being devalued. I guess you could move to China or wherever necessary…
Funny - I've been diggin trough some blogs reading random facts about Langdell and here's a comment from someone who supposedly worked with him: "That is not the case. Tim married with a rich women, and seh left him to waste big amounts of money just to have him entertained. I remember when they told us the amount of money…
Man would you guys stop typing to sooo tiny I can hardly read what is on the scree.... On the serious side my eye sight has been getting better each time I go to the eye Dr. It seems to happen in my family, eye sight gets worse until early 20's then slowly switches from near to far sightedness, in that time appearing to…
I was going to wait until I had the whole side done, and then just quickly add the mirror. I actually have a folder full of pictures I saved from here as reference, I just haven't consulted them in awhile. What I do notice is that you guys always raise the pecs and the shoulders. Are you referreing to the old model, or the…
No feedback so far? I love it, it had a ton of potential! I really enjoy how organic the first shot feels. In conparison, the straight lines from the palisade and the road entrance feel pretty off.. Especially compared to the round organic house shapes Id try loosening thah up a bit. But its tricky you want the area around…
Depending on where in a game, sure thing. If it is just the care in customization mode, i am sure poly counts will be higher than in an actual race. Lod 0 i read is 500k+ especially with interior. I mean just grab any latest racing game and search for 3d ripped content to study.
Some time ago i modeled this same sniper rifle :) I have to say that your model is very nice, clean and very accurate in the details, but your UV have problems...First of all there is too much not used space, due probably to the auto-pack function of 3dsmax. Plus as i read, i agree with the importance of 1:1 scale...in a…
Hey I think that it's a great idea! What I would maybe suggest though is, instead of doing it via email, which would be time consuming for you to look through, maybe creating an online survey (with for example Survey Monkey). You could break down the potential topics of your tutorials into categories, like: * Focus on the…
hyrumark, That sounds dreamy. Reading the following wiki excerpt sounds equally as interesting "the effect of quality?": EQ: I greatly appreciate the panel type breakdown, I know this has been discussed before but till now I have put off thinking about LCD $$$. For a Game Dev Art/Tech Forum>> PolyCount sure is my all…
