Re: Seem placement options?
The purpose of overlapping UVs is to save valuable space on the sheet. When you have multiple identical elements you place them on top of eachother in the exact same coordinates in UV space. This is called stacking. You want to ensure that the islands are placed exactly on top, rather than eyeballing. When you have a… -
Re: Intuos Pro vs Wacom Cintiq 21UX DTK-2100 2nd Gen
There were actually three major versions of 21UX : the first two were grey (using Intuos3 tech) and the last one was black (Intuos4). I would assume that in your case it is the black one. The 21UX black is a fantastic device, with pros and cons : + Aspect ratio is 4:3, which can be good for character art. + The surface… -
Re: Routes into the gaming industry.
as someone who basically did what you want to do i may be able to give you some advice/experience. firstly i'd recommend self teaching over classroom, at least to start with. get some books and videos (a mix is good - videos are easier to watch and learn from first time round but you need good books to refer back to and… -
Re: Fox Engine: The Core of MGS: Ground Zeroes
Well on some level I feel there may be a catch 22, or a double edge sword to this matter. I agree the do it yourself process will seem less fond of a task to undertake from that of the norm where we like pushing geometry ourselves. BUT the opposite of where I see this isn't a bad thing, and in particular for games in… -
Re: Looking for help

I did check the wiki and there is defo… -
Re: Muscular Male Sculpt
Aston, I am going to be overly harsh here. Its not looking spectacular. You are learning and listening to crits which is good. Do not perceive anatomy. look at it! A few people have mentioned the skeleton. Listen to them its the most important part. Find the bony points of the skeleton and build muscle off of that. I.e.… -
Re: Working in the states?
Norway isn't part of the European Union is it? If it were I'm pretty sure you could move about the European countries pretty easily, but alas I'm pretty sure it isn't. So the biggest thing will probably be to find somewhere with high enough demand where you could realistically get employment and some type of work visa or… -
Re: light-field cameras Lytro Demo
Right, I'm not surprised at all by this, because I did a little bit of reading into the topic before it hit market, and because of what its doing, it has like a 10:1 sensor to pixel ratio, meaning it needs 10 pixels on the sensor to equal 1 in the output.... Again for the target demographic(people posting random stuff on… -
Re: How To Win
What I dont really get is people having "fear of sucking", "art depression" and/or other similar issues, even tho one thing that is posted, re-posted and repeated all over art communities like PC or CA is : don't work without research, planning and references. But still, I feel like people look at skilled speedpainters and… -
Re: Advice for career path for artist role
This is a valid point! I do jump around a lot, but I have that silly mentality of oh this is hard, lets begin from the start to learn that.. ohh something shiny! and begin to work on that. I do believe I have some clear ideas but just need to whittle down what isnt going to be worth me focusing so much on right now.…
