Re: Costume Design Contest
Thanks TeriyakiStyle. Fmoritz came to me with his concerns a few days ago and my answer to him was not far from yours: I think that saying that contests like the ones we organize hold no benefit to participant artists is not true. For participating artists contests such as this one give them an opportunity/a subject topic… -
Re: Sketchbook: UUUinfinity
EDIT: I don't know what's happening with the images; have tried different things already. EDIT 2: I had to post them via Chrome for some reason, not firefox for the images to appear. Hullo! First I'll post up what I've done and then the Nomad Panda concept, as that is what I'm working on at the moment. Wastelander-esque… -
Re: CAT D6M WIP

Re: Freelance vs. Full time studio gigs

Re: rant: tripples, nipples, and technical art
How can you make this rant when you've spent a large portion of you skinning career so far imitating Ken Scott? No apology, thats how your work has always appeared.

Re: This makes me laugh so hard
Malekyth: The issue is really a case of number as well as quality. Sure, you can say that you should compare bad art to bad art, but in general I see a lot more american games with bad art-- not to mention the level of the product. With the popularity of Everquest, there should have been no way in hell it could have been… -
Re: Dynamic Character Project: Male Human
[ QUOTE ] well, to start your character doesnt seem to have the triangles it sas it has at a first glance i would give it 1500 tris [/ QUOTE ] Hmmm... In Max, I count by converting a duplicate of my mesh to an Editable Patch (triangulates the entire mesh), then I use the 7 hotkey to check the polygon count. 'Tis how I've… -
Re: Question regarding Education.
The short answer is "No." A university degree (or even a graduate level certificate) is not necessary to work in the game industry. The long answer is more complicated. A degree is more or less symbolic of your learning process and the things that it implies you learned and accomplished. A degree suggests and ability to… -
