Re: New portfolio: HitmonInfinity. Please critique.
I like it a lot, huge step up from your last one. I'm a little confused about the foliage. It mentions speedtree. Did you model these yourself or use an external editor and change settings to produce those results? as for feedback: I would perhaps offer a .doc version of your resume as well (many people simply use the PDF… -
Re: doom 4
For me it was Q4. I literally stopped halfway through and said, "What the fuck am I doing?" and then grabbed the cheats so I could just cruise through and see what happens to the main character. After killing the exact same enemies all game I just stopped giving a crap about the actual meat of the game, because the meat… -
Re: How I feel about Maya
Now that Autodesk owns everything they need to just converge it all into one so that we don't have to worry about converting files and getting things to work in one program as it would in the other and students can learn easier and we can stop paying for multiple programs and we can stop having this same fucking debate… -

Re: On the topic of getting into 3D art...
For me motivation is that the games that I want to play don't exist. So whose gonna make them? Also working in 3d is fun and very rewarding. So discipline is usually needed not to start but to stop. Like wild sled dogs. They don't ever need to be told to go. Only to stop so they don't run themselves skinny. If you haven't… -
gauss' pompous best of 2006 movie list
The Onion AV Club is having its second annual Film Poll, where you rate your top 5 films and just generally give your opinions about the films of the past year. Since I not only love movies, but am also a snob and a jerk, here is my response to that poll. The deadline for the film poll is February 2nd, so be sure to mail… -
Re: Spaceship Portfolio Piece
On top of what Meloncov stated, your space ship looks very out of place. It seems that you rendered it in some fashion where you placed it on top of the star image then added an outer shadow/glow. Its a fair attempt, it actually could pass for a specific art style. With your next project, post your concept or real life… -
Re: Mythic's Wall
Thanks for the kind words :-) I cant wait to get it textured myself hehe... and for the top oil pot.. Well, see that's the thing, not quite sure how they meant it. In the original mythic sketch there are what looks like some slight, uhm, edges? , that go up the side to the top, like a built in ladder-esk system, but i cant… -
Re: Visible edges on baked mesh
It's ok .Nobody expects better from 8 bit compressed normal maps. Would be worse in actual game with screen space environment reflections and AO and still nobody would notice with other textures on until it's something of a big scale up to your nose . Then use actual geometry bevel . More padding sometimes helps too. It… -
3dsmax Quick and Dirty Workflow Tips!
I read a lot in forums, people asking about things that are very easily done and they are either looking in the wrong direction or they are hidden so deep that you can't just spot them out easily. On top of that.. not many really mention them in tutorials! These will be very useful especially for people who start getting…
