Thanks for the inputs guys. Yes, two years is a long time to build up your skills as long as you concentrate real hard. I admit that I was constantly questioning myself whether I should stick with 2D or move onto 3D for years. In other thread, I complained that lack of mentoring can really delay the progress and...well,…
Just a small update of the design; i think i am ready to block in some colour soon, but i want to make sure the design is right first, my original intention was to have her in some Tavern or Castle roof but i decided to make it inside a church where i can take full advantage of the moonlight, and have streams of light…
What kind of quality do youyou want it to have? I mean, you can get away with everything by making realistic materials for it. You can also sculpt 2-3 wood planks and use them mixed in your scene. The boat's sun protection is cloth so it definately needs folds. Try to be creative by adding aspects to each material. The…
BEWARE To all our clients and friends, Would like to inform you all about something. We got some inquiries in recent days asking about our Branches. Actually, some of new Teams/studios are copying our "Name and Content" style of presentation. Therefore, would like to clarify that we do NOT have any connection with those…
I'm no pro but here goes my critique and advice. More reference! I think having an entire folder of reference helps with any design/concept/sculpt. Get around 20 or pictures of the tank and look at it very closely. I think the main thing that jumps out at me is that you're overlooking the details. You have a good overall…
Looking good. The only two things with the geometry that catch my eye at the moment are that those semi-circle pieces coming out of the angled roof aren't scaled the same as in the concept and the top 3 thin concrete layers are all the same size in the concept where as in yours only the top 2 look the same. As for the…
Word. Humans are no different now than we were 3,000 years ago. The major difference now is the accumulation of information and subsequent advances in all technology fields. If we can fly to the moon with advanced technology, we can certainly build a damn stone pyramid without it. I once moved a massive doghouse that was…
You're not going to want to use SpeedTree assets for grass over a large area like that. The foliage tool, while great for painting meshes quickly, is more valuable because it batches "clumps" of grass for faster rendering. Your draw call counts are going to go through the roof if you manually place a ton of grass assets…
Did more work throughout the week. Thanks Ian for the paint over, I was getting many similar comments, so I'm glad I put in these extra touches. I still have to do some texture work, a polypainting technique for the icicles, a decal with normals for boot prints, and most importantly the Icy Mud environment material for the…
Mini Weekend Update. Started to make the little scene. Starting to come together a a bit more every day. Had a bit of time this weekend to keep working (very small update but gives a better idea of the scale I'm looking to create). I added a floor and some props to the scene. I'm really starting to get excited for this…
