Hi everybody!) We are Drka-Drka team - Daniel Copytsko and Kirill Kravchenko from Heyworks studio. And this is our take on the Throne Room contest. For more screenshots and work in progress, please check our thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=147306 Software used: 3ds Max Zbrush Photoshop Substance…
Find an inexpensive community college nearby and study art basics. Don't pay out the ass just to learn art basics somewhere. I'd try to avoid 30K in debt if possible. I'm not sure of the prices now, but art basics courses at a community college could be ~$400-600, which is much better vs. 30k. Use polycount or other…
Thanks everyone!!! Really appreciate all the feedback! :D @SteVAI - As far as how many hours it took?? ... Well most of them. haha... really tho, I had a week off for vacation in late Nov. Besides that, I've been working on both of these pieces almost every single night after work, and lots of mornings before work...…
well i think instead of trying to dissilludion the poor guy maybe someone should instead explain to him sorta how this all works, so he can know what he actually wants. since him posting HERE of all places, asking about a career in game design shows a certain degree of missinformation. most schools "disguise" their…
Ok so I tried with floaters and got the result that @Quack! said. Average normals produced skewed details, as did the Max cage version.

So you would need to check each animation file and make sure it lines up with the Idle version. I would say about 50% of the…
Hey guys, long time lurker here. I doubt I'll make it in time, but thought I'd give it a go. /******* * Story * *******/ In this take of the original story the princess never came back. The beast sat on the highest tower of his castle, waiting, while his sickness spread eventually killing him. This is the moment where he…
Hi guys, I have a few years of experience modeling in 3ds Max but I am now being presented with a new challenge and I'm not quite sure where to begin with it. I have done some character modeling and rigging in the past for single characters with no customization options but this time, I have to model and rig an avatar…
Hi! I am playing with the multi-layered texture node under Maya to paint a level with lot of different texture files. I first tried with vertex color and layered texture, it allows me to apply a first texture to the object (example : earth texture) and then to paint over a second layer another texture (example : grass…
I'm covering some of Scott Eaton's works,but decided to take a little break from study in hopes to assess what I've learned through some sculpting practices. I've done done 3 consecutively each day up till yesterday where I found myself needing a rest to look at the busts in a more critical tone. My main issue that I'm…
