Re: Keep hitting a wall in skill development
i dunno about environment artist. Recently there was the polycount awards and one of the winners is Josh Lynch (i think is the name) and he's an enviro artist. I think he has some kind of training or mentorship going on. Tim Simpson (aka pixelmasher) is starting to put out a lot of tutorial content for enviro artist. Also… -

Re: 3ds Max/Maya necessary for a future job in the Industry ?
I also wondered about the same thing so i went ahead and started learning the basics of blender, it has so many features, idk about its future or that of maya or 3ds max but for me the only issue is its a pain remembering all the hotkeys and stuff for the packages. These days i just stick to 3ds max(because i started with… -
Re: XNormal Bake Experimentation
Just wanted to say, great article. It's always good to investigate each setting in a methodical way, see what does what. You're using the Ray Distance to bake with, but do you have any hard edges on your model? AKA Smoothing Groups in Max. If you do, and you're not using a cage in Xnormal, then your maps are going to have… -
Re: Autodesk laying 925 people off
Chris Johnson aka "alpineman" was a former seasoned 3ds Max developer who got hit by one of the last layoff cycles. I was quite shocked about this news back then... Chris posted a few messages on his blog after that event giving some insight on what he actually worked at that time and how things generally were at AD. One… -
Re: POLYCOUNT STUDIO???
A game studio is really hopeless idea here because as others have said already, art is a small portion of the big picture and I don't see why anyone would bother to crowdfund an outsource studio... The typical route for sites like this is to turn it into an educational platform ala conceptart.org/gameartisans.org because… -
Re: Harbour Inn (WIP)
I agree with GOBEE, you need to have more on the walls. They are so barren right now. And there's almost too many glasses to be honest. I would put bottles of something, like alcohol or milk (aha). It just seems like they are taking up space, no real reason for it. I think you should add character to this scene. Even if… -
Re: WOW: Mists of Pandaria And Kungfu Panda
Do you remember the days where you first stepped into the game excited and young and all. Enjoying the questing, first guild interaction, raiding and all that jazz. It was great! I know some of you are players from the first WoW (aka Vanilla). It worries me that absolutely no one thinks twice about the sanity a new… -
Re: Keen's Portfolio Site
Thanks for the feedback guys. I addressed some of the problems but not all of them. Breakneck (aka Lawrence ) - I realize the concept for the carriage isn't top notch but the reason I put it there was to show potential employers that I think and concept out what I do before I dive into modeling. bounchfx - Great idea! I… -
Re: UT2004 Weapon placement problem
Yeah, the model size definitely has something to do with it, as I have now found out to my cost. I made my newest model, Farnsworth, by making him about HALF as big as I made my other models, hoping that shrinking him would fix the displacement with the new weapon meshes in Unreal200X. But alas, with the smaller model, the…
