Re: "Nvidia, stop being a DICK"
seriously, are you comparing Blender with strategic choice of super huge corporation such AMD and Nvidia? You obviously know nothing about open source, I give you a short list of opensource programs and gems that define a standard: OpenGL, Linux, bullet physics, Android, Firefox, Chrome, Libre Office, LSCM (most used… -
Re: Tattoos and perceptions
I think this is one industry where it wouldn't matter in the slightest. I'm planning to get one as soon as i have the cash and have thought up a decent idea. Got a few friends who can draw amazingly that i'm sure will help me out and put my idea onto paper. I do know some friends working in supermarkets etc that are meant… -
Re: Temple Concept Crits
If you are still looking for advice, in a concept, the most important thing is not the painting. Is to figure out what you want to represent. The mood of the place, the history behind it. Is it a ruin? An active temple? Who goes there? Is this temple in this world, dimension? What kind of ceremonies happen there? Etc,… -
Re: Johnny Depp - This is Bat Country!
I am finally done! After weeks of tweaking, endless back and forth and mental breakdowns, I decided to release it. I could go on forever probably with tuning etc. but at this point I am quite happy with the results. I had big troubles with the expression. Keeping the likeness especially in such an extreme expression was a… -
Re: more questions about bricks and walls and tiling...
1. Yes, something that should be using a tiling texture like a brick wall probably shouldn't have a uniquely baked normal map. 2. For anything boxy, I would custom weight the normals on the front, back, sides, etc, so there wouldn't be a any normal map gradients, helps with compression, comparability, artifacts, MIP maps,… -
Re: Sketchbook: pablohotsauce
@Nyawning: thank you mucho. Learning Substance Designer, but in the background I worked through another 3dmotive tutorial: concepting and modeling my own hand-painted dagger. The thumbs, tighter drawings, and then painting: And the model. Realized that I don't like having to paint something twice :P Also, even though this… -
Re: Sketchbook: Isso09
wake: Thanks a lot dude! The efortlessness is just masking my lack of skill really ^^. Every one of them comes hard. I'm finally alive and online, and man, did I miss the boat of getting good! About two years ago tons of people on CA got good, posted in each others' sketchies and got awesome jobs, including Dave Rapoza,… -
Re: How to write cover letter if you are self-taught junior 3D artist?
We actually had 2 classes at uni just about applying to jobs, and I can only agree with what people said above based on that. Don't be boring, don't use standard lines like "I've always wanted to work here" etc. and keep it personal, short and slightly formal. Regarding your portfolio link, put it somewhere in the… -
Re: Batman begins is here,yay no nipples on his suit
I loved it true! Great movie, I cant wait for the next. Best part for me was something along the lines of.. ".. This one guy has commited a double homicide etc.. etc.. He has a flare for theatrics... leaves a calling card.." I clapped at that point I was soooo pumped. Scarecrow guy was awesome.. I wish we got to know him… -
Re: Workstation vs. consumer hardware
Workstation hardware is useless overpriced crap. Quadro, Xeon, etc. Instead of buying this junk every 3-5 years, you could afford to build a new "consumer" pc every year that will out perform the workstation stuff after the first year, blow it away after the 2nd year, etc. $1-3000 for a graphics card that barely…
