Re: [Portfolio] - Clark Coots - Modeling & Texturing
If you're going for work in the game industry, I'd strongly recommend rendering scenes in one of the common engines - e.g. Unity, Unreal, or Crysis. The depth-of-focus effect seems a bit overused, especially in the scene with the anvil, where the only object in focus is well off to the right side. On the vehicles page, I'd… -
Re: Mudbox 2014
Hehe yeah - the update plane thing was in 1.07 ... then got mysteriously removed from 2009 and 2010 ... then came back. As for this new version, I dunno. It's cool and all but I think it would require some bigger paradigm shifts than just this auto retopo to really bring it to the next level. As usual, features are being… -
Re: What games influenced you the most when choosing a career in game development?
+1, Deus Ex is the most amazing game I have ever played. I think HR and Dishonored came pretty close to its level though, which is awesome after all these years (Possibly an exaggeration since I first played Dx1 in 2009 I think). 2nd I'd have to say Oblivion, not because it's a very good game, but purely because it got me… -
Re: Gabrielle from Xena: Warrior Princess
Here is my first time creating a realistic looking eye, through the process I learned a pretty quick workflow for creating them. I suggest modeling one and giving it a shot, I'd be happy to help if you've got any questions. I followed Tom Newbury's tutorial - https://gumroad.com/tomnewbury I'm also figuring out hair cards… -

Re: More Stable Job Opportunities in 3D Art
I've heard making art for Casinos both pays well and is very stable. And while it's true the game industry can be risky, I believe working for the 1st party developers (Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony) offers a bigger safety net than most 3rd party studios. Although SCE Liverpool and Lionhead show there's a still a chance of… -

Re: Cintiq issues
Slight hijack of the thread... For Photoshop I usually set my pen buttons as keystrokes [ ] to increase/decrease brush size, and when I press and hold them they work the same as the keyboard, the brush size increases/decreases until button is released. With recent drivers (at least Nov. 2009 to now) I have to keep clicking… -
Re: Zbrush Base Mesh Question - Hard edge and organic together
![[HP]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/PW2278Q17H7M/nK9DV1HH4CBZK.jpg)
I would do as much as I could in max (sub-d modeling) so in zbrush you would only need to add some wrinkles, etc. Some people will tell you to do most of it in zbrush maybe, but you would need a lot of skills in zb. For me, zb is a tool to add detail, not to sculpt out complete forms, but I'm talking from my experience… -
