Re: Dominance war discussion.
I can see where Frump is coming from, and to an extent I agree. However, I think other important points have been made, especially in that making your own concepts is essential and basically the entire point of the contest. Dominance War is much less about simply building cool shit in 3D and much more about showing that… -
Re: 2017 demo reel, critiques please
Hello snickerwicket, Good stuff in it! if you want feedback on specific frames it would be cool you upload it to https://syncsketch.com/ it's way easier there instead of saying "around second 40". and we can draw on it!. - I would place a plane in every animation since its kind of difficult to see when a foot is planted,… -
Re: Answered: Grouping Elements? Photostop configuration? Color ID? Transparant glass? 3DS MAX workflow?
Hey Irontarkus! 1) Could I see an image of this? 2) The Suite will configure Photoshop for you. Unless you run into performance issues, there's not much of a reason to mess about with Photoshop settings. :smile: 3) You don't need to bake color IDs. You can paint over a UV map as well if you'd prefer, or use solid UV… -

Re: is it possible to have a kitchen full of cooks in this industry?
Is it possible? Yes. Would it be tough to put such a thing together? yes. To some extent TOTAL personal creative freedom can be detrimental due to not having a cohesive end product. On the other side if you don't NEED a cohesive end product then bang away. Basically think of quake 3 or UT after you installed all the user… -
Re: [ONG] Offroad Racer - Indie Game Dev Log
answering a question regarding the LODs on the conifer trees and how to produce the billboard maps needed without speedtree: Hi Brian, The billboards have been rendered from the final tree with two cameras. We render albedo and alpha maps but when applied directly there will be a visual mismatch because of missing light /… -
Re: [Portfolio] Tricia Herbert, Environment Artist
Two suggestions in general: One, I'd say a good portion of your material is quite similar. It's either produced from Photo Reference, or it's a concept developed by someone else. I don't think there's something inherently wrong with using either of those things, but to the extent that it's used gives someone the impression… -
Re: Manuel Huertas - Environment artist portfolio
Echoing a lot of the previous sentiments, diversity is going to be important to showing that you'd be a valuable potential hire. More than that though I think you're hitting a wall where your ability to build these techy models far outstrips your ability to design them. The incubator design is an illegible mess. I know… -

Re: Looks like BUsh, peoples!
Stayed up last night and got all worried about the election and didn't sleep much. Wake up after an hour of sleep and go to work in the gallery only to find that Kerry conceeds. I've had four professors and countless classmates talk of getting the hell out of the US. I started looking at grad schools in Canada today. I…
