Hey Polycounters, my name is Thomas Beck - some of you know me already from my [Blender Developer Sneak Peek](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQB_JPnenWON0sB3QBoGx-Q) series on YouTube 📽, from my tweets on [twitter](https://twitter.com/plasmasolutions) or from my Blender contributions as a Blender core dev (like the…
So it has been awhile since I have streamed or even talked to any of you about the status of this Book. So here is an update that hopefully will ease some of the minds here and also get some of you fired up. First and foremost I want to say thanks to the artists who contributed to the project for being so calm and…
It's coming along nicely. Awesome progress! You're not going to waste my time are you =) I held back from vomiting out a ton of lighting tips and tricks before, often it falls on deaf ears. You sir are not deaf! w00t! If you are using a volume light effect on the center spot light, under the Spotlight Parameters rollout,…

I stayed at school for 2 years on top of college and then went to uni so I am 2 years older than other people at the same level. Getting down like this kills me, especially when life gets in the way of main goals. After leaving…
The globe: I wanted to test out an idea I had and the globe was the perfect candidate for it because it was a fairly symmetrical piece, not just in one direction but in several. It was also a simple object to create high poly geometry for if it didn't work out all I had to do was re-unwrap and bake it again. Splines…
/me pulls out the heavy hand (but with love) Take this all with a grain of salt. I'm not trying to discourage you but help you make some key choices early on that will greatly help. These are things I wish someone had told me when I was starting out. You are about to take a trip across the desert and all you have is a 50…
Hey Polycount! I'm Ben Ruiz and I'm the artist and combat designer at Team Colorblind, and we're about to release our flagship game Aztez on August 1st. I thought maybe the Polycount community would like to see first hand the dumb shit I did to make this game work. This is what Aztez looks like in motion. Here is the…
