I'm going to attempt my first normal mapped creature model and I'm aiming for portfolio quality as my folio does not have any normal mapped characters. Hopefully after succesfully *fingers crossed* completing this guy I can move onto a Human character. With that said I'm gonna need some help along the way to make sure I…
@Torch I've never had a desire to pre-order a game, much less a digital download...(had to do it for DayZ last month), but damn that wasn't a hard decision to make. I let the computer run last night to install it. By 4am it was finished and patched today. I'm in the U.S. and I havent figured on what server I'm going to.…
Hi everyone, I been wanting to do fan art for this job class since August. I had to commute 2 hours to get to work and Tactics A2 kept me entertained. I always thought that the Viera race were cool and my elementalist was a key member of my party. Now that I know how to model characters and my portfolio is at a presentable…
Hello polycounters, so straight to the point. I am just acouple months away from finishing my senior year of highschool. Awhile back a professor at MMI "Madison Media Institute", the collage near me, told me that I can probably skip the collage faze if I really dig in and work hard. So with that goal in mind, I come to you…

Thanks for the kind words guys :) A lot of awesome work in here so far. Pav3d - Love this one :) One crit I have would be the back of her hair as you said. Feels kinda flat compared to the front. Also arent you missing a flap on the back of her skirt or is that intentional ? jstyles3d - Really nice work on the face. Her…
From what I've seen/heard and tried to do in the short time I played, you can totally do pure economy side of things and ignore space-battles. The best part, though, is how dynamic the economy is. How strategic you actually have to think about hauling your economic stuff through different sectors and territories. Truly,…
I'll have to strongly disagree ! Just take games like Super Meat Boy and Portal. Their silent era equivalents would be the original Donkey Kong and Breakout/Tetris ; games got a long way since then. These two recent titles are perfect illustrations of games being great at being games, as opposed to trying to be something…
They got Fortnite running on phones with (they claim) the same project as the PC version so it's theoretically possible provided you have sufficient time, resources, experience and are willing to adjust the scope of the project. Since (I assume) you're not a large studio that's already making tens of millions off the…
