Hi Polycount: I'm writing up a draft of 2 Cover Letters for two separate game teams at a large development studio, both Character Artist positions. Part of my confidence going into this is that someone from said company, who I met originally at SIGGRAPH this year, told me to apply now even though I was still in my 4th year…
I've noticed that a few polycounters I know are going to Animex at Teesside, Middlesbrough this year, and I thought it would be a good idea to have a meetup! This would also be great for Northerners who can't afford to come down to London, but still want to meet some fellow polycounters! Animex Game takes place over Monday…

@Axi5 Hmmm for some reason I cant download it here at the office, maybe it's a setting in these machines. I'll try at home later. Still, while I can see the script being super useful for selecting every Nth element, I don't think it covers the Grow Ring function, mainly because you can use the latter for a selection of…
Hi alexes. So I really like the car stuff! In my opinion the texture for the honda is really nice! ;) Only thing which bothers my eye is the white spot on the back window.. what is this? ^^ I agree with mr_ace, put some pictures in without wireframes. I also agree on not using a demo reel. Well maybe it's just a personal…
