Re: Modeling reel - Adam Sacco
When I was watching the reel and looking through your gallery, I was actually wondering whether you were going for game art or animation. If game art, it seems like your models are really unnecessarily high poly. You could probably get the same results with far fewer tris with a bit of optimization. Games are getting… -
Re: The Honest Feedback Thread
Looks like you've got a decent start here, Wolthera is dead right, try periodically flipping the canvas, it'll help a ton. To me it looks like you're drawing what you think you see, rather than what is actually there. For example you've got a sharp highlight on the nose in your version, whereas the reference doesn't. Your… -
Re: Getting started... please advise.
Art college for games is a waste, imo. Unless it's extremely game-centric like Digipen (15yr waiting list, btw), it's really a waste of money. If you look at the portfolio's of graduating students, the majority look like high school level art. Being self taught (as myself, and MANY others on here are), shows the studio… -
Re: GHOST RIDER THREAD
it was on the low end of mixed feelings for me... a few decent parts (Mephisto and the old Rider) and a lot of cheese (monkies!). boring fights with the elements(air, water, and dirt; we called him dirt cause he wasnt cool enough for earth). Cage seemed to be channeling Elvis for his performance.. Eva Mendez only redeemed… -
Re: The Guitar Thread
Didn't Satriani teach Steve Vai? I'm sure I read that somewhere. I agree though, technically incredible, but I just find his albums like a 'musical tech-demo'. Love Satriani's music though! Jeremy - have you tried playing songs you like? Even if you just strum out some basic chords, I found when I was learning (which was… -
Re: THoughts on the future of the Industry.
Sharper, yes. in certain ways, but similar in some ways. I dismissed Laurel as her view point is fairly irrelevant to those that want to spend money on games, but the professor talking about "in order" core architecture, wow... that's going to hit the programmers in the nuts... hard, and games are going to have radically… -
Re: Digital Camera's - What do you Suggest????
I have a Canon G3 with a 1GB memory card. The image quality is great, but the camera isn't made for professional photographers. It's more of a snapshot camera suitable to beginner photography students. It's a high quality digital, but setting options, zooming, setting shutter speed and aperture requires a lot of button… -
Re: Gaming market defies "recession"
I think this is misleading. The industry, as a whole global industry, will do well. The large companies will continue. Studios with a loyal fanbase will continue. While many in other professionas are lining up for unemployment benefits, nerds of the world are waiting in longer lines for Wrath of the Lich King. Blizzard… -
Re: Is there a protest going on right now at Artstation?
@Tiles I agree with you Tiles. A lot of my thoughts right now aren't really well thought out on the subject. It's a lot of "something doesn't feel ok". But in reality most of the uncertainty is likely due to the technology being so new and it feels like it's happening so fast. I am certain ai generated art is art. When I… -
Looking for 3-D Artists for a user study (PhD Research Project)
Hello everyone! My name is Karran and I’m a PhD Student at the University of Toronto.

In particular, I’m…
