Re: Beginner 3D Game Artist, Where to start
Drawing is always a good skill, you can't go wrong with it. You don't have to master it, but it will always help you in your work. There's plenty of ressources online to improve your drawing skills, but practice is of course the core of it. I also recommend Feng Zhu youtube video. He's got a large amount of it and this guy… -
Re: The Importance of Proximity
From what I've seen, most "junior" positions go to locals. Companies generally cant justify the moving expenses for a junior person. And it's damn near impossible to get juniors a visa if they have no work xp. Also, smaller studios tend to hire locals as well, because they just can't afford to move someone close. Smaller… -
Re: Being productive with ADD/ADHD/high-functioning autism
RexM, the subject is about ADD not a place to spill your propaganda, next thing your going to tell us is that cancer can be cured with an organic vegetable diet. You are using unscientific data to backup your arguments/beliefs and hijacking this thread to spread them. Advising people to not vaccinate their children based… -
Re: Hand Painted Texture practice.
Ok. I have a little more time so I'll explain the paintover a bit A lot of this is piggybacking off of DemonPrincess' post above. She really hit a lot of great points. I'll just add my 2 cents on the philosophy behind how I work. - Groundwork: Plan your attack. Study the style that you're attempting and note what makes it… -
Re: Portfolio [Trying to break in concept art]! Would like critique/advice (and if im ready). Thanks!
Robert, Sorry for the late reply. No problem man! Always willing to offer my 2 cents. As for your other questions it's hard to say about the silhouettes, I've seen portfolios with them and with out them that have gotten into the industry. On the one hand it shows more of your process, but on the other having just a few,… -
Re: The North Kingdom - Assassin's Creed (Fan Art)
Hey, I've had a quick look over your work. OK, my five cents! it's a good start, but here are some things to work upon as you start to reiterate. To my eye the stone brick texture that you've worked on seems flat and too uniform in colour. Adding subtle colour variation to each brick will make them read as being carved… -
Re: Failed Art Test Critiques
I'm not sure if these things have been said but here is my 2 cents. At first glance at your maps, that spec isnt contrasted enough. The way materials are read from other materials is the level of spec they have/reflectivity. It seems like your spec isnt using the full range of values as i'm barely seeing any black. That… -
Re: What to do when inspiration is lost?
Hi all, figured I'd drop by and share my thoughts on the subject. It's only recently that I've formed this opinion so if it's a bit rough around the edges I apologize. So here goes... I don't think inspiration is ever really "lost" I believe existing in a state of constant creativity is actually very exhausting! Like a lot… -
Re: Arbor Vitae - UDK Scene [WIP]
Solid game art, there is no questioning that. It is clear you guys are professionals. The choice of colors and lighting are interesting and take all of my admiration. While there is no questioning the capabilities you both possess as 3D game artists; pushing polies, working with materials, lighting, and so on, I do feel… -
Re: What's With The Ribcages ?
I think a lot of people over do stuff and don't make these kind of details subtle enough. Its like we can look at anatomical images and know whats there, but in reality more often than not, these sort of details are often covered by water under the skin and fat. If you just hint at the ribs when going for realism its…
