Re: Student portfolio help & advice
Hey OP, You can improve a lot. For example it still seems you are really weak on modelling. Can you maybe start doing these. It starts simple, but it is really good practice. http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=129938 http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=132146… -
Re: Recommend me a modelling app
Same situation. Done with Maya and Autodesk in general, and working on transitioning out of Maya into Houdini for general 3d work, for modeling I've fallen in love with MoI, it is however a NURBS modeler, but it's on a whole different level and doesn't have the difficulty issues usually associated with NURBS. Best… -
Re: Getting into 3d scanning
I know Photoscan a bit. Result is very similar to 123d catch, with slightly more control. I really dislike what Autodesk made of their technology with the online application and cloud. Photogrammetry is used in place of laser scanning by professionals in architecture, archeology... With a correct calibration, it's very… -
Re: Florida schools - my goals
As someone who very recently graduated, and looking at all the debt I'm in, and honestly the education isn't any better than one you can get online. To back it up: Year subscription to Gnomon: 400-500? Too lazy to look it up Year subscription to Digital Tutors: 300-400? Professional critique and networking via polycount:… -
Re: Greek Fighting Stage Environment UDK critique please!
Overall, it's nice, but it lack of punch. I defenitely think that a scene of that kind need to be more localized. What I mean is for the moment, your arena fight looks in the middle of nowhere...floating in the sky. An EPIC background is needed to make your scene more valuable...some fantasy mountains covering up this big… -
Re: M26 Grenade
Honestly, LODs are something anyone can do, I dont think its necessary to show an LOD for every model in your portfolio, I don't see why a grenade is somehow different. I don't think many people reviewing portfolios are stressing whether or not an artist can do lods. Its not like doing LODs is something you just… -
Re: Old Sci-fi Gun
Thanks! :) First of all thanks for the encouragement! As for the wear&tear I guess you are right, I could have spared some parts. I just went with it when I imagined the gun to be really old, probably used by multiple people for decades. The paint peeling out by itself more than for the gun use. For the color scheme I'm… -
Re: [Portfolio] Scott Homer - Environment Artist
Looks pretty good, I'm sure someone will take you on. Curiously high polycounts though, worst offender being the apartment building at 30k. Even with all those windows modeled that seems high, and I can't for the life of me see where it all goes :) On the buggy I can see some stuff looking odd on the side beneath the seat,… -

Re: Your most memorable gaming moments?
Zelda: After months of waiting my friend finally got Zelda III. After a mad dash down in his basement and pracically shoving in the game in the console the game starts. After creating our first character (named G since G is the first letter the typing cursor is sitting over) going through the intro-text (which none of us…
