Hey guys, I'm really new in this modeling and texture thing but I'm trying to learn the best I can and I wanted to tell you guys that while I was trying to make some items for the Dota 2 Workshop I got into an idea of making an special item for the Crystal Maiden that I think it might be a little hard to make... It's about…
Hello awesome people! The two of us are artists (Abbeysaurus & groomedmonkey), both involved in spare-time game development (under Origami Bear). We are really excited to take part in this contest but under a high workload at the moment so wont pick up momentum for a few weeks. However, we came up with a great concept so…
Crystal Dynamics is looking for a Materials Artist for one of its game teams at its studio in Menlo Park at the heart of northern California's Silicon Valley. Position Description: The Materials Artist role works in conjunction with a world modeling team to ensure highest quality as applied to normal, specular, diffuse and…
Heyy ES_139 . I have not really played to may games especially recently because I don't have any free time, but this game was by far my favorite game. There were not many games like it. This was actually the assignment of the workshop : Remake of a retro video game character so I picked up this one. :) If you remember how…
Hazardous - Wooaahh thanks! Man I'm really honoured that you'd visit my sketchbook. Huge fan of your works. I remember back then I was looking at your Kairi clay render and was like "man this is pretty damn awesome". Anyway thanks again for swinging by! I still got a long way to go so I'll definitely still keep practicing.…
Work has been very full on, so the thought of sitting and doing personal art has not been appealing - until today. Dusting off an old project, the Crystal Gems house! I cringe at how old this piece is, but there was a lot of potential to work with, so I stripped the textures and started again. Not a lot to show today, but…
I've been bad about updating this. I've been settling in at Crystal still and the long commute makes it hard to do work when I get home late. Here's some stuff I've done the past week - some Fallout fan art. Always been a huge fan, and I loved the Nuka Cola Challenge in FO3 so I used that as inspiration.
It's hard to comment on your stuff because while it all seems solid, bad lighting and small, highly compressed images (even on your site) make it impossible to get a really good look at your character. I highly recommend using the marmoset toolbag - it gives you a high quality light environment without any work required,…
Back when I was at Crystal Dynamics, and Eidos was caught in the bidding war between SCI and Elevation Partners, one of my co-workers changed his Outlook alert sound to the chorus of the U2 song Elevation. So everytime he had a meeting alert, you'd hear Bono hootin and hollerin at full blast. Even when SCI won, he never…
I believe that rock is zink sulfide ore, which would make it a dielectric or an insulator. Sulfide compounds don't conduct electricity but they might take the form of shiny crystals. Not everything shiny is a metal. You could polish coal to make it look shiny but it would still be a dielectric material. EDIT: Actually it's…
