Re: Need help ( Portfolio Review )
Yeah I agree too about removing the character and gun. I would also suggest just choosing 'Environment artist' as a title, you don't have enough props to be considered a prop artist. I like the breakdown in your mobile generator, I would like to see that in the environments to see how you have approached it. The other… -
Re: Sketchbook: Tits
@sacboi Thank you!! Glad you feel there is some kind of progression, it's a bit hard to judge your own work. You should go buy some canvas paint and brushes for yourself, it's fun to do a little bit of traditional work once in a while, away from the good old pc! I was feeling a bit more confident after piece no6 but then… -
Re: Using a normal map for beveled edges along with tiling textures for bigger assets?
Damage decals. Or you can use the traditional rock technique where you bake bespoke AO and curvature maps for your mesh and use it as masks in engine to layer in details on top of your tiling textures, since those are greyscale it doesn't hit memory quite as bad and you don't have to make them 4k either. You can throw in… -
Re: 3d artists - out of a job in the future?
Ok, so I wanna make a fantasy game, I'll just go to the zoo real quick to borrow their Orcs and Dragons so I can 3D-scan them... oh wait... The new tools may make it easier to achieve realism. So if we're talking about what now a person would aspire to replicate from real-life 1:1, then yeah, that sort of super technical… -
Re: Where does it go? Metalness vs Roughness
It is specific to what kind of weathering you are trying to create. Metals corrode and oxidize, and in the process they undergo chemical changes. Also, many kinds of damage and localized wear include a component of surface transfer between materials. Do what looks right for the circumstances you are trying to replicate and… -
Re: GPU,CPU, mem, or OS; upgrade help
I'm going to second the 64bit OS upgrade. It was a night and day kind of switch for me going from 32 bit XP to 64 bit Vista. If you can upgrade your ram to 8GB (or more) that would be good too. As far as heat, you should physically clean your PC (get the dust off the fans, clear the intake and exhaust vents). Better fans… -
Re: Now that's how you make an impression
i could be mistaken, but Splash Damage started out as a mod team that made a map for Return to Castle Wolfenstein, it was so good ID asked them to make 3 more maps for the GOTY edition. and went on to develop it further into Enemy Territory: Wolfenstein? Counter Strike started out as a mod, and by version 3 or 4 Valve… -
Re: Helspont Comicon 2014 Entry
The design is really cool and I think you did a fine job modeling it, and the texture work is good too, but the texture from a technical art standpoint, an overall colour design standpoint, seems very bland. It looks great, but something just seems to be missing about it. It just seems far too clean, especially with the… -
Re: WOW: Mists of Pandaria And Kungfu Panda
Yeah, you're absolutely right. That's why I said the 1v1 game is separate from the Team vs Team game. And I don't know that it's practical for Blizzard to tweak their game for 1v1 at all for that reason, and also because of how that would affect raiding. You would pretty much need separate classes dedicated to 1v1 that… -
Re: Im having problems with the art scene
Instead of jumping directly to the armor design, try come up with some kind of story behind the character. Why is he wearing the armor? What is the armor for? Is he a marine? A general? Shuttle tech guy? Will he battle in the desert or jungle? Damaged veteran armor or clean rookie? Acrobatic or solid? Make up a story about…
