Re: To the artists who have achieved this
Hey bud, I broke into the industry without having gone to school, and by just following tutorials. Its definitely doable. Its all about the portfolio and portfolio direction.

Games/Modeling Courses which is the BEST (UK)
I'm 17, It's getting to that time when I'm seriously considering going to University or not - I want to, but I've heard so many bad things and the last three years of my life I've been doing courses at college that havn't taught me anything remotely relevant to 3D/games. I've checked out bournemouth university courses… -
Best art community: London or Berlin?
Hi guys, I am an Irish artist living in Munich for the last 1+ half years and am preparing to make the next jump to a new city at the start of the new year.

Re: Ryan Jessop Final Major Project - ARC Troopers
is this is intended for games? If so, I might ask around a bit about UDIMs. I thought that was something only used in film (or at least not games).

Best tut site for subscription?
Tried searching for "gnomon" , "digital tutors" and "subscription" , my bad if there's already a similar thread to this but I put my 5 min in lol. So yeah, I'm thinking it could be wise to invest at some point for a month or few months a subscription to a site or multiple sites.. Right now I'm aware of only 3 - Gnomon /… -

What's the best way to get the normal/AO and Spec maps for a diffuse texture?
Hi, I'm new here, and I'm really confused. I personally like to paint my textures in Photoshop as my background is illustration. I often get the diffuse to where I like but have absolutely no clue how to create normals, AO and specular maps from it? From what I've seen in order to get normals you must make a high poly…
