Sorry guys. I put up the latest episode last night, then and had to run off for some SWTOR launch stuff! I was meaning to put a post up here letting people know. Thanks Ben! We really got some great information packed into this one, and Adam Saltsman is such a great ambassador for the indie scene. He was able to discuss…
Hi, I'm trying to do a sci-fi user interface for a school project. I'm trying to do something similar to the Swtor and Mass Effect user interface. I have sketched out everything, but I'm not sure if I should do this in Illustrator or Photoshop. I couldn't find any tutorials on how to start it off. I was wondering if…
I'm sure some of you are sick of this topic by now so sorry for the bump, but here's a new interview that i don't think has been posted here yet, and Bruce is asked straight out about the most common doubt questions. Still no crystal clear answers but you might get something out of it.…
Hey everyone! I've been watching and commenting for some time on Polycount but never started my own sketchbook thread. I recently decided that in order for me to become a better artist and actually get a job in the industry I need to sketch and draw more. So while I sit in my half-cubicle, Ill be sketching all day and…
Hmmm. Well that was cool. Gotta say I went away disappointed with SWTOR, Zelda a bit meh, 3DS stuff and Guild Wars 2 (whaaaaat!?) -- BUT -- thought Skyrim, Rage and ICO/SotC looked amazing. The indie section seemed constantly busy, interesting and sweaty (smelly) with Blocks That Matter standing out for me. Disappointed I…
We had a similar thread at tech-artists.org: http://tech-artists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=239 To my suprise, lots of studios are hand-making them still (or outsourcing it). We don't have a solution for SWTOR yet, but we're just starting research- we're going to find a pretty automated solution (some 'archetype' character…
Hi everyone! I'm new in the 3D world and this is my first portfolio character. I would like to know if there are any errors or where I missed something or maybe something should be added? Just some feedback. And the big question about topology. Some artists use a lot of triangles and poles. As I understand, triangles can…
Well here's the description page: https://jobs.ea.com/jobs/jobposting.aspx?refresh=1&postid=a0z50000000GtDF But let me explain what we really need. This position has been open for a while, and we are having trouble filling it. SWTOR is trying to look a lot better in combat than other MMO's. We want combat that looks like…
Just a quick Hi to introduce myself to the forums i am starting my Evocca College Diploma of Digital and Interactive Games soon and they directed me to this page. My Name is Paul and I've been a Gamer for many years, it is a passion as well as a hobby, and have always wanted to do something with it, i admire how games are…
I am aware of that Justin, and I do agree that the whole MMO market is a very difficult one to stay relevant and profitable in. I was simply voicing my personal opinion, and I know it might be wrong in many cases. It is after all just based on my observations and my limited experience in the space as an artist on EvE…
