Re: I am giving myself a year to build a 2D portfolio. Any advice?
I do need to brush up my short pose drawings. I wonder if Youtube channels are good enough for gesture drawings. (yes, there are nude pose videos on Youtube, all legit.) BTW, one major reason why I stepped back from 3D for now is that I have no clue how to teach myself beyond basic, I mean very basic modeling. This Fall I… -
Re: What website, resource, or school was responsible for you first getting into games?
Great thread idea! I would love to hear how people got where they are and why. 1. For me it was Wings3d tutorials and a bit of the old eatpoo.com art forum. In high school I landed an internship at a local animation studio just by teaching myself how to model assets. Back then that was enough. Also, the producer at my… -
Re: Saturation To Grayscale?
The colour that comes from the reflection of light from a material can be explained by subtractive mixing. Like Teriyaki wrote, a white \ neutral light is the only way to truly know what's the local colour of a material. When the light has some tint or flavor it will influence how our eyes see the material. You can read… -
Re: Symmetry in Modo
About making planar using the workplane. You don't actually have to use the workplane, you could also just use one of the other Action Axis, such as Local, or Selection for alignment. The workplane just helps visualize it better. As for symmetry, I actually don't use this feature at all. I mostly work with environment… -
Re: Happy Ninth Birthday Polycount!
I came to Pcount around 1999 or so. I was working at a "3d Content Boutique" that made its bread and butter doing visualization for architects. I was hired to do everything and anything else. When the tech buble burst the local architects tightened their belts- our company did a nosedive. I pushed for a transition to… -
Re: Picked up a PSP
that's surprising to hear about the dead pixels issues. i've got an apple cinema display, which have a shitload of pixels and so a couple of dead ones to be expected but hardly noticeable. a PSP on the other hand is a much much smaller LCD, you'd think they'd be able to clamp down on quality control for that. i'm going to… -
Re: 3D Paint with multiple UV in the same material?
Hey Josh, nope not really. We talked about it in this thread. That map plugin at least lets me paint in the viewport... but it doesn't update very well. Only one UV displays at a time in Max, so I had to tile at the local Map level, not at the modifier stack level... basically I can only view different repeat amounts… -
Re: The newest VG character...the King of Burgers!
[ QUOTE ] You go to lengths to avoid buying clothes with visible branding, and write hate-letters to the local BurgerKing; well that is the sort of behaviour that makes you an extremist, and unlikely to find many sympathetic ears on a public forum. [/ QUOTE ] What? A: Where did Key say he hated Burger King specifically? B:… -
Re: You know what really grinds my gears???
I get that sometimes fly_soup. I had just finished a stressful day at work and I was tired. The guy tells me to cheers up on the bus. He was drunk and high so I am thinking its easy for you to say chill out or whatever, because you haven't had the shitty day I have had and you are blind pissed, now f off. I like a few… -
Re: (possibly) Never eat again - Soylent shake
just because of the farmers market hint: so we had a scandal over here, not two weeks ago, where some farmer bought normal eggs and put a "bio egg seal" on it. also we had a lot of horse meat like in everything (from done lasagna, to actual minced meat you could buy) i wouldnt trust your local farmers market, too. america…
