Re: Afghan / Kabul City
Well what stands against letting assets not rotting away on a harddrive? Take a look at Turbsquid. People are making money there. Please show me the definition of AAA too. I'm curious if it's on Wikipedia or a dictionary. Thanks. If an Admin tells me to remove, I will remove. :) EDIT: Just about AAA. You throw around with… -
Re: aa.............
Short answer. Yes. There's no reason you can't make it look nice. Efficient and AAA ready is something else entirely but I'm guessing that's not the goal. Assuming you've just mashed the auto unwrap button and imported it to painter you're going to hit some problems with resolution etc. I'd suggest you break it up into a… -
Re: 3d artists - out of a job in the future?
probably not, time = money so tools that reduce time means less ballooning budgets. I don't work in AAA games, I'm used to 1 week or less turnaround on characters. A few recent threads put AAA character turn around at an average 4-5 weeks. If tools can reduce the time to make a AAA next-gen character to the time it takes… -
Re: WHY your portfolio needs to be on ArtStation
I am honestly not saying it's bad or for one kinda of dude, I am just saying that it is mainly catered to a certain demographic over others. I mean, I did some pieces inspired by various titles, but nothing outright copying. I could do that though. Also many of the people in the thread you posted were weapons fellows, and… -

Re: How to get correct Texel Density for a large model like this?
I'd unwrap it all to a single 0-1 UV space, texture the entire thing with a 2k sheet, and then evaluate it from there. Save your texturing layers so you dont got to do much rework - if you find that you need more resolution in some areas, you can just split those off, reimport the model, apply your layers and export.… -
Re: Physically Based 3D Cartoon Art.
In the past, I was switching projects only because at the time, I didn't know how to separate making an AAA portfolio with making my own cartoon projects. However, because I've finally realized I don't need to mix my cartoons with that of an AAA portfolio, I no longer have to switch around projects. Hence why I have this… -
Re: A shift in the games industry
This is an interesting subject, but unless someone here is an analyst of sorts with information other than opinions, I feel that this will just turn into another depressing thread. Im chalking it all up to growing pains, the industry is still relatively new coming down off of its high from enjoying some massive years… -
Re: Salary: Doctor vs cg artist
Everyone has a different definition of AAA. The definition of AAA I am using is from: http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2013-07-04-eas-hilleman-triple-a-console-studios-reduced-to-25-worldwide Average of four or five character artists per studio but teams are four times bigger = ~ 500 AAA character artists. Number of… -
Re: Crowd Funding, i.e. My Woes With it
please don't take this as an insult, it's more of a realistic point of view. i think one of your biggest hurdles is going to be that for $100, you get a copy of the game. $100 is what people would expect to pay for an AAA production. now, i'm not knocking the quality of your work, it's fantastic. it deserves to get you…
