Re: Blood Temple Environment
No reason in particular, i guess it's a mixture of this low poly-ish style being my comfort zone and the fact that i mostly learned from Handpainting tutorials(and my current CG school), where they stressed us to keep the polycount low. One of my initial goals was to work on games with artstyles similar to WoW or Allods… -
Re: Criticize my portfolio *[Update: Sci-Fi Katana]
Your work is pretty solid already. I really like the Lizardman. But! You should learn PBR texturing (spec gloss is a bit last gen). And the polycounts are low compared even to todays standard. With a portfolio piece you want to aim a few years into the future. So your creature could or should have at least ten times the… -
Re: Problems when baking normal map in substance painter
Experiment a bit, there are lot of quick things you can try to understand what is causing the issue. You can make a beveled cube and try baking it the same way as you are baking this to see if you get the same errors. As I said, usually, there are jagged edges when the baker can't find enough room to work with. Increasing… -
Re: Tournament Ticket Item Bundles - Discussion
Agreed about adding tourney organizers as service providers. It also means you can give them a cut if you just really like the organization but they currently don't have a tourney going. The whole point of service providers is to give back to those that have helped the community which is why I think DotaCinema, JoinDota,… -
Re: I need help and guidance
Well about what to learn, all is here at Polycount. Yes really all you need is on the internet for free. I would continue the arts course as long as you get to do art all day, then on the free time learn the tools and work on your own art work. Just remember what others has already said that education matters not only the… -

Re: MEN IN THE GAMES INDUSTRY - Creepy tumblr page with people you may know!
He PM'd her a heads up saying "a fellow polycounter sent it to them", taking that at face value and not some bullshit they made up to make them not seem like an obsessive creep it would suggest that someone is sending people this stuff. And if the information isn't correct then its all that much worse imo because innocent… -
Re: next-next gen is terrifying?
That is silly :P I can give you that if you want to, right now, on currentgen consoles :P Nextgen will be much more about shaders and rendering than polycounts and texturesizes. Sure, we will upscale the textures a step or two, and that will be enough, then the shaders will handle the rest. As I said in another thread, if… -
Re: Cryochamber Facility Room
I didn't mean to imply that the polycount was too high, just that it veered toward the high end of acceptable polycounts which is totally fine considering the context of your scene. One wouldn't really be able to get away with a giant open cylindrical room filled with such assets but that doesn't seem to be what you're… -
Re: Skinning
If you're still really into plain old 2d texture skinning, you should check out the SDK thread. Lots of good models by our fellow polycounters. Also, for more help you could check out the archive of some tutorials on the old polycount site: http://web.archive.org/web/2004061004435...-tut-list.shtml A good face painting…
