Re: Paradox Interactive Art Dump
I promised to post som stuff from the levels we did for The Showdown Effect. It was developed by Arrowhead, but we got the honour of doing some DLC levels! This was back in 2013. The theme was a Wild Western setting, it ended up in two different levels called South Eastwood (a traditional wild western town) and Fort Fiesta… -
Re: Seeking Advice on entering the Gaming world, post college.
My old Creative Director from Ubisoft has a blog. http://clicknothing.typepad.com/ (With links to other Designers/Creative Director types). He actually has his degree in Quantum Physics (which really doesn't have a direct correlation to games). He got into the industry the same way many of us did. He started working on a… -
Re: A Giant Crab with a Crab-Dude Riding it (Unfinished Petrol/Blood Entry)
Okay, time to stop avoiding this: yeah that deadline just didn't work. This project has been plagued with technical issues from the start, and as I started to try and re-pose and texture roughly a gazillion more popped out of the woodwork. I've been working on this on and off during lunch break at work. So far, I've not… -
Re: First Demo reel, need feedback :)
Take a look at demo reels for other artists. The one at http://vimeo.com/39330892 is a rather nice example.

Re: Don't know how to progress your art?
Yeah I totally agree there were too many things I wanted to incorporate. I had the ideas in my head but the execution ended up becoming quite sloppy. What I noticed is when I started the piece I had a kind of "fuck it" attitude and for the most part winged it. I applied very little of my knowledge and in the end it… -
Re: Modeling or animating?
Try em both. Most people get turned off to animation at the rigging/skinning phase but don't start there. That takes another skill set and if you're an animator the technical side shouldn't be your first concern. Creating realistic believable motion should be your first. Honestly, start with a bouncing ball and the 12… -
Re: getting desperate
ok , here are the exact steps : 1 - i started by putting the motherboard cd in the driver and boot from it, and choose to create a disk with the drivers etc needed for the F6 part. It didnt work as the drivers didnt allow windows to detect the hard drive. 2 - i used the disk in windows and made the disk from the program… -

Re: Dallas Polycount Meetup
Hi! wondering if a polycount meetup ever started? i was going to start one on meetup.com but if ones already started that'd be great too! -
Thoughts on my choices for potential Fan Art
Hey Polycount! So our class had a guest speaker last night that reiterated the benefit of having fan art in your portfolio because it has the potential to make your portfolio into a conversation starter. And it's fun to work on stuff you like. So my last character was supposed to be fan art, but I did a kind of crap job…
