Re: Is blender really going to take over Maya?
The above mentioned companies like to publicly support blender because it's free and there's no barrier to entry. With the exception of epic's fortnite team (who outsource most of their artwork) none of them run an art production pipeline as a major part of their business and in the case of epic especially they profit… -
GDC 2011 - Technolergy
I was one of the many people who were not fortunate to go to GDC this year. Luckily, afterwards many bits and pieces of talks and tech are posted throughout the internets. This thread is a home for those things. Let's find them, share them, and talk about them. For maximum brain-growing. Epic Games: The Technology behind… -
Re: Newbie fancying trying some scenic modelling
Unreal plus free megascans that you can get with it will get you a good part of the way. If you want to make custom assets blender will do. Eventually you might look at speedtree but there is enough free/cheap stuff already on the epic store no sense getting a subscription off the bat. unreal will have less learning curve… -

Leaving it at default… -

A cross between Peak and Facing Worlds were my main inspirations. I knew that Epic had tackled oriental themes beforehand in UT3 but… -
Re: Sketchbook: Valeriy Vdovin
So, that's the first sketch. My goal was to freeze the sculpture in the very moment of the Legionery striking his opponent with a spear, the very moment, when the soul of the defeated warrior leaves the body. We can see the strain of muscles, holding the spear, the hands of the defeated warrior also holding it tight in a… -
Re: Limbo of the Lost
This has grown to truly epic proportions. The list of plagiarised sources is pretty ridiculous at this point. Stock poser assets, a WETA bust, motifs from the LOTR RTS main menu, even the concept art includes badly-done traces of movie stills (someone pointed out a goblin creature from Legend). I need to torrent this game… -
