Re: Abandon the career?
I looked at your portfolio and your situation reminds me of mine last year. You can clearly model/texture but you need to make your work more memorable. An example is your computer prop is ok on its own, but someone else may have made an entire environment that also contains a computer, room, desk, chairs etc. Just one… -
Re: Jinx, the loose cannon, Tits WIP
JadeEyePandaThank you! I did try different lighting before with some warmer tone, wich also looked interesting. I just felt like it was better to keep a continuity with the other shots of Jinx I had done before wich had colder lighting. Shiniku & garriola83 Thank you! Bao93 Yah it's definitly a way to see it! At some point… -
Re: Sketchbook: LongJh
bbob - Thanks man! I feel like I might be getting a bit too comfortable with hand studies lol, the tough part is drawing them from my mind. Thanks for dropping by! And more stuff! Eye studies after Stan Prokopenko. Will probably do a series of notes and studies after his tutorials. I did notice I tend to forget to apply… -
Re: Whats wrong with EPIC/Unreal Engine?
@radiancef0rge Who cares? Are you kidding me dude? You gotta care, otherwise there will be no progression. Never be satisfied (in a positive way of course). Did you forget "Technology equals might"?? @PogoP Am I being that dramatic? lol. Try to understand here! I am just trying to say that if cryengine can do something why… -
Re: Where do I even begin?
My 2c here. Actually more or less how i started. Get a student version of max or maya (both free and no limitations on use aside from the license type). Find a good/descend tutorial site where you can get some good free "lessons". I do love Digital tutors myself and use them but i think paying for it if you don't know what… -
Re: Anyone who's learning 3D Software/Digital Drawing while studying something else?
...how's your math?! Well about face (...learnt programming prior to creating 3D Art) when in the first half of the early noughties (2000-2004) Web Design/Development scene had quite a bit of steam left, post .com crash. Ergo, enamoured with thoughts of crack'n it big via salaried wage or a gun freelance coding journeyman… -
Re: Dojo WIP!
So i've been adding more detail and generally speaking, based of the reference image used, i've got whats needed done. Below are some images: The cube reference is 178cm, so roughly 5ft 10. Unless people can think of any criticism from the images shown, i can start piecing this together in Unreal, which in turn will help… -
Re: The downward slope for artists salaries.
That is quite accurate. My gf is a compositor in the film industry, in order to get the skills needed for that job she went to a trade school. Now she owes like $50k in loans, but can only afford to pay off the interest incurred, so despite paying over $600 monthly to Sally Mae, her total (what she owes) doesnt even go… -
Re: 1st Time Noob Normal/AO bake in max==Epic Fail for half a day of work
1) It created a shell and looks like it was baking previous versions to the final bake. In the material editor use the eyedropper to sample the surface of your low poly object and see the shell material. Before you bake again, apply a new default material and in the RTT window under Baked Material Settings check on Render… -
Re: Applied for a job - usual wait times?
Keep in mind, it's around this time (April/May) students are now graduating from colleges/universities so I wont be surprised if studios right now are being flooded with thousands of applicants. I would strongly advise looking around your area/state and see if there are any job fairs being held at schools, especially…
