Looks pretty cool :) The topology looks nice. Is there a target polycount your going for? I think you should go in and add loops to areas like the elbows, wrists, shoulders and the knees. These are the areas which are going to act as pivot points for the bones and are the areas which will undergo the greatest deformation…
I'm not at all a fan of Anita Sarkeesian (doesn't have much to do with her message, I just prefer action over talking about action), but I think Makkon touched on one of the most important points earlier - it's not just her life Anita needs to think about when these types of threats come in, it's the lives of any…
Gah! Buildings are harder than I expected. Some very rough block-in going on. After skimming Wikipedia for a bit and looking at some reference of Chernobyl and artists' concepts of Ice Ages, both past and hypothetical future, I've decided that a nuclear winter is probably going to be the apocalypse that'd be most likely to…
There are a lot of things to consider when choosing what platform to make a game for. UI - how will the player interact with your game, kb/mouse, touch, controller, something else... Game design - Is your game meant for longer play sessions or shorter ones. The smaller the screen + more portable the device = typically…
I'm not sure to quite follow the gender controversy here. Yes the android portrayed in the clip can function as a sex doll. That doesn't mean in any way that the author of the clip (or the target audience it is aiming at) is for woman being objectified. It simply is a grim statement on today's society (the exact same…
I like that idea and I have been advocating that type of model. My thoughts were that the developers would make it known how much they need to make the game and show that as a goal. That's good and it gives people a target to shoot for. What's more is I was thinking of adding perks to higher levels of contribution. My…
Work wise you quality is good enough to start applying. If your looking to target more studios, get more attention and show off more of your skill set, I'd add a lot more variety to your portfolio. Your portfolio as it stands is very sci fi orientated, which is great! But what if the person looking at you portfolio also…
Emergent gameplay poppin' up: Got mid air jetpacking working with W and S and it's pretty cool to try to get orbital speed going and pilot the tank like a plane. Going to expand on some systems to allow upgrades to influence flight more. It'll take more upgrades to achieve high speed flight, but low speed flight will be…
I would recommend sending your portfolio directly to companies, or atleast to recruiters that represent some companies. This can help a lot when starting out. It would really help to get your portfolio vetted through some qualified professionals here on polycount or through pm prior to sending it out to recruiters. Radio…
Thanks for the comments everyone! MoP - Aww thanks baby <3 Massbot - Thanks mang! $inz - Lulz, thanks for the words of encouragement but I'm still up till 6am every night... derp. I'm moving back to WA at the end of the month though, hopefully I'll be able to work a sleep schedule change into that overall life change.…
