Thanks for the input guys. Yeh! that sword was definately a inspiration for the old design. But now the only thing they got in common is the handguard I think ;P Gonna arrange the closeups a different way the next time. Thought this would look nice though. It's ment to be two handed one with approx. 180cm overall length. I…
To be honest, Majority of the Game Industry've moved on to 3d but they still require a 2D traditional artist. Since creating a tattoo is your profession right now you shouldnt have any problem creating a 2d traditional art portfolio. Your odds of getting hired with a good portfolio is same as someone whoz a graduate with…
that's good to know. its the same on the film side. alto the people are doing good work at the cartoon studios. most of those people can't model anything but toon. I just worked on a toon show and it was a total FUCKING NIGHTMARE. I will never work on another cartoon show ever again. I guess realism or at least highly…
Sometimes it helps if you have an overwhelming interest that inspires passion! Most modelers seem to have a concentration preference ( at least to start out with ). It seems most modelers come to cg sculpting from varying interests. You have the model car types, or the military weapon / vehicle types, The largest interest…
Yeah, I've been thinking about letting go of character exactly for this reason. I don't exclude to come back to it later (I'd love to be able to model animals and fantasy creature) but I think it's better to first concentrate on something that can help me to find a job in the industry and after that have fun with something…
re-worked the pose and had to change a lot of geometry too. i searched a lot of wire images of game models to see what poses are used for the modeling of a games character. i chose to use the pose i saw in a final fantasy cahracetr model wire image i googled. i wonder if there is an ideal pose? i would like to feel, i…
Yeah, great games on this list. Dungeon Hunters (In fact Most of the Gameloft games are great! Even if a few of them are blatant ripoffs) Infinity Blade 1/2 Sword and Sorcery Chaos Blade is great if you like Square Enix JRPGs (A little more polished than their Final Fantasy iPhone Games). Games ported from PC/Console:…
@KielFiggins Yea man I agree. The good news is I can animate each tail feather individually so I’ll add some fan/offset into the tail to break up the spatula-feel it currently has once I move into 1st pass/polish territory. The bad news is it looks like there’s only two bones in each feather so the deformations are a…
this lighting/scanning stuff has been done in several titles in the PS3/360 era already. the problem with it in my opinion is simply that it requires all the bells and whistles to be turned on and finely tuned to look any good. in my experience these are the very same features and rendering accuracy that are being thrown…
thanks for the comments. fixed the shield, looks all fresh painted now. wood grain shows too. the first axe had an engraving on it, but i pulled it cause I didnt want all the weapons to look alike. O I should probably mention that this is for a small weapons mod I'm trying to make for Skyrim. The game has such a cool…
