Sketchbook: East
Figured I'd start one of these, I'm having fun looking through others' and I hope I can provide something interesting for others, too :) No one should ever stop striving to improve, so if you see anything that could be improved (in particular if you notice a pattern of something I keep doing wrong) please let me know.… -
Re: [WIP] Retro / PS1 Style English Seaside Town
But back on topic, love the direction you’re heading in. I agree you tend to want more moody lighting for a horror game. I would suggest revisiting the night lighting, but taking care to add more fill lights. The purple is too monochromatic, which tends to induce visual boredom very quickly.

Portfolio & Career Direction Advice
Hey everyone, Looking for some honest feedback on my portfolio and advice on what direction to take next, mainly whether it’s strong enough to land work paying $40/hr or more.

Re: Insomniac Spiderman Retopo (Help)
We maintain a Spidey template mesh that we use to start all of the suits with. The same way you would have universal topology/UVs for many other character types in a project.
