I just started working with Papervision a couple days ago - which is difficult given that I 1) don't own Flash (I'm using FlashDevelop instead) and 2) have no idea what the hell I'm doing at all. I have so far managed to get a simple model loaded and rotating in my browser. Here's a link:…
poster above doesnt know how to give feedback, was unnecessarily harsh and had no constructive criticisms so ignore them, I'm not a hard surface artist but i will do my best to advise on what i can. First of all, your work is really solid so far and shows a lot of potential. You're getting some great results and I can see…

Well, others have pretty much covered it in the replies above : by doing everything in a voxel sculpting app (which can indeed be quite fun) you're pretty much shooting yourself in the foot if your goal is to get to clean and efficient game assets from there.

Don't stress about picking just one thing, realize you are picking which you will learn first. If you want to make a career out of this you'll need to get good enough at one thing in order to become employable, but when that gets old you start to branch out into other things. If this is going to be a life long career…

I use parallax occlusion mapping on everything- no you shouldn't. Just on flat tiled textures. the…
Really great stuff Eric, you've done a very good job with how the gun looks in the 3 point shader, I don't know if I can ever remember seeing someone capture the subtle color ranges of a really nice old patina like that. The purple, blue highlights are absolutely spot on. Grips came out beautifully, you even got how the…

Normal 10 - 6 hours were good for me. About 2 months into that I saw myself slipping more and more into the late hours.…
