Re: Triangulate when baking normals?
Its sort of a complex problem. It depends on a few things. Some apps it is essential, by default in max if you render with an un-triangulated mesh, you will get lots of smoothing errors as max randomly sets your invisible edges for you(regardless of any invisible edge tweaking you do, it will set them as it sees fit). From… -
Re: Service : see your name in arabic
it looks nice though.. I think don't try to sell *us stuff, but I'm sure if you asked for advice on setting up a website to sell to the general public people would be helpful -
Re: Should I get the summit passes for GDC?
You should look into which talks you would want to see, if there are a number of them, maybe consider getting one of the more expensive passes. Otherwise, just get an expo pass. It's my experience that the interesting talks tend to be more geared engineering and design, and what is available for art tends to be pretty… -

Re: How do you photograph surfaces to get the best texture?

Re: Cintiq: Pondering the purchase.
In regards to what Josh and Kolby said about going back and forth, I honestly haven't had that issue personally. I use a 9x12 Intuos 3 at work (I only use the mouse when we play games at lunch times and such), I have a 21UX at home and its brilliant! I do sometimes wish I had the Cintiq at work, but I never have issues… -
Re: Real Life Portfolio, how should it look?
I used to have one legitimate reason, the name I wanted used to be taken. But is available now. And then there is always that "my art is not good enough" thinking. Yeah I noticed that when I printed, the colors were all wrong and really washed out. Don't know if I just had weird settings or a bad printer but it looked… -
Re: Team-Fortress 2 demo this week?
Wahaaaay, just played for a few hours. Much fun, even though I was playing with strangers (...err...) and we weren't really communicating. Medic is actually quite a bit of fun, and also nice that when you are healing someone that gets a kill, you get credit too, I managed to get a domination while healing hehe. Most fun… -
Lost Saber (Sept. of 2016)
My thoughts during this project were focused on designing a light saber that belonged to a Jedi Knight who was never found. I wanted to practice texturing as if someone tried to wipe and clean the stains of war off, and so I utilized the Sandpaper Brush in Painter. Basically, my workflow was to completely cover the surface…
