Re: Topology tool(s)
Ya well, that causes face flips, and overlaps since it doesnt create just one plane but 2. Front side and back side so you can measure the thickness out so, even with the 0 thickness you would likely to have face flips, since it works that way in zbrush. When the rigging tool was made, the Pixologic dev team assumed that… -
Re: Walther p22 Based Pistol-Game Model *Need Advice*

The exacts being 9 (grip) 20(slide/Matter shiny things) and 40(glossy metals). Just random values i pulled out of nowhere :P The plan was… -
Re: Sketchbook: Skiwan
Thanks for the kind words, glad you like em, personally I find it really hard to find color palettes I like! It's been a while since the last update, but I'm about to embark on a challenge of producing.... 30 VEHICLE DESIGNS IN 30 DAYS.

Re: The predominance of consciousness over matter
[ QUOTE ] This is exactly the reason why I don't think you can use the Bible as anything other than a safety blanket - you can't just "pick and choose" which parts absolutely must be true, and which parts are a bit nasty-and-weird-so-let's-skip-over-that... it entirely defeats the object of using it as a source of truth.… -
Re: Game Art Cliches
Great topic! I've struggeled with the same questions man, as a gamer and as an aspiring game artist. It's interesting to think about... in the beggining game art was a slave to gameplay and things were evolving all the time so nothing really "stuck" and became cliche, in fact game art was absurd. Just go back 20 years and… -
Re: A quest for improvement? (Warning long and wordy)
I don't work in the art industry any more, but here is my two cents coming from a programmer's perspective: Don't give up.

Re: Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Man's Chest
I loved it it was fun, and looked great. I was impressed with the crew of the flying dutchmen/ I really really really like the great detail given to the ship also. I liked the sound the tenticals made when they moved around the ship. But I do have a few MINOR beefs; <<<<SPOILERS BELOW!>>> 1) Jack made the pact at NIGHT to… -

Re: CONSUME MASS QUANTITIES
The truth? lmao. This is the angry, bitter, old, man who lives in shack in the woods and is angry at the world for no specific reason, truth. It's diet anarchy. I once embarrassed someone in a room full of people who tried to use that line on me. "The truth set me free". Yeah, I informed them that I'm not really up to…
