Re: I need advice on a job offer
might sound stupid, but have you tried talking to them about your situation? More often than not companies will try to protect their investments or atleast try to help you out some before closing doors to you. Too often people are afraid of burning bridges but honesty is always the best policy and creates a good and… -
Re: Is this normal? Another Art Test question
Telling them to fuck off would be dumb, unless you're the sort that really likes burning bridges. If you've got pressing contract work and little free time, tell them that, and that you'll be happy to do a sample asset for them at your normal freelance rates. If they're seriously interested, they might pay you for an art… -
Re: Uncharted 4
I think the characters felt good, especially the subtle facial movements. Riffing off jerc, even Jeff Bridges facial movements in Tron Legacy didn't feel as nuanced as they did for Drake, and that's probably cause the animators go in and hand key on top of the mo cap information. What I thought was awesome was how Drakes… -
Re: Does SPainter support export to PBR Blinn-Phong? If not do you have any tips *converting* them?
"Converting" to Blinn Phong doesn't really mean anything as there can be many different implementations of the Blinn Phong model, like the ggx model can also have many different implementations. Unless you know how the Fallout 4 shader works and you can adapt it to work with SP, it will be hard to get a good bridge between… -
Re: PETROL/BLOOD Mike8917
Thanks man :) You might have a better experience when you come to doing yours. I think the main issue with the ones I'm doing is that it's a pretty tight squeeze to get to the ammo feeder on the gun from the drum, so the angles are pretty tight atm! I felt as though I was spending too much time on this part trying to get… -
Re: How do people generally react when you tell them you're a 3D Artist?
Yes! If you work with something besides general jobs, don't expect anyone outside your industry understanding what you do. I think more than often, if you have it as a hobby, you'd be regarded as a "nerd", which I could easily be pointed out to. But then I never care what people think of what I do, so never care to tell… -
Re: [UE4] Columbia Scene - (Based on Hitman 2)
Here's a quick block out on just the thought process I have for this. I was just adding a bunch of boxes around on what I was thinking it would look like, just from the first image, and then built around it (which probably isn't as necessary). I plan on re-using assets that I would make to fill in the areas around the main… -
Re: Where should I start?
CLM, At 16 you're super young. Try things out. Try graphic design, 3D, animation, etc. They're all as deep as you want them to be. I don't know how education works in your country, but around the time you actually go to Uni, pick ONE to focus on and make that you're "thing". Take electives in other fields if you like, but… -
Re: Substance Painter - Master Thread
I'm working on making a good bridge between Designer and Painter, trying out and looking at a number of different methods, but so far I've been unable to find something that really suits my fancy. My setup is that I have these complex graphs in Designer where I Tri-Planar map my materials, and I'd like to blend between… -
Re: Is it a good idea to create map using in-game map editor for a level designer?
Don't worry about what you should put or not put in your portfolio - you're just getting started, and in a few months/years you'll laugh at your first attempts. Just focus on building the most fun levels ever and/or the most beautiful levels ever. It goes without saying that if you want to be an environment artist creating…
