Hey Nitewalkr, I'm going to keep it short: If what the good folks here are saying is difficult for you to put into practice just yet, loosen up, let go of your goals and achievements and simply 'just draw' for a while. Dont worry about the subject, or whether you are doing good or bad.…
Nope your not... I love it too. I personally couldn't give a shit about this mentality of 'oh it's so over complex, all this shit everywhere, just let me play music I don't need it to make coffee etc'... it's a music player for goodness sake. We play music to make ourselves happy, to enjoy it. God forbid they actually make…
Vassago's got it. A last gen game cost $4 million, a "next-gen" game costs $40 million. Guess what? People are not buying ten times as many games. A lot of publishers and studios bet their asses that we would cover the costs and and we (as an industry) have not. BUT! There is good news. Wii is a massive hit. MMO's are…
mm ok I see it's uses, I rarely add bits to existing meshes. And I just tested it again, it didnt crash, took about 45 secs to normalize my 25k mesh. I just tried to undo it, wow it sounded like my pc was dying :p For some reason undoing it takes a lot more effort than doing it. I let it choke for about 2 mins before I…
Ohnein while it's true that a career stays with you, that only works for you if it means more to you than your girl. Not sure how to explain, but in my case my loved ones came first and she was at the top of my list, so I thought all the time I spent trying to make it work was worth it. That said it doesn't help with how I…
Hi guys, I'm slowly building up the skeleton bones. I'm tackling this piece how I normally would with any other character. Working from big forms first, making sure to nail down proportions and silhouette first. I block in the different masses starting with a primitive, usually a sphere that I dynamesh down to a…
The good: * The time in Finland has strengthend my relationship * Experienced living in a new country * Managed to improve my skillset * I managed to prevent my grandfather's ~40 year old boat to be sold The bad: * My portfolio still doesn't land me a job interview and most probaly won't in a long time, it's been 1,5 years…
Here in europe there are many shops that build the pc for 20-50 for you. Maybe there is a shop like that in your region as well. This way you can pick every component you want, save some money and you don't have to build the rig yourself. Though I have to agree with the statement that it's not hard to build the system…
I was trying to re-create fangs like world of warcraft movie durotan had. http://www.korsgaardscommentary.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/warcraft-movie-durotan.jpg or Gul`dan http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/f/f0/GulDan-Cinematic-Face.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150808063356 i am a bit stuck as trying to…
Here's a few things I took from your story: Every studio can be shut down. You could be working for the biggest and top selling studio of all time, and there's a really good chance they might close shop in under a year. This is the reality of our medium, and of the times. The chances of you being at 1 studio for the rest…
