Re: 3D Artist Portfolio Critique
Like the tiny grab game, instead of doing the usual expected commentary towards portfolio specifically i would say based on current events and my own historical background/experience with this "employment field", I'd say one is much better off exploring their own possibilities of making their own games and gathering a team… -
Re: Movies / Documentaries Every Artist must watch
YES! glad someone beat me to it. When reading the thread title I immediately thought of "Visions of Light"! It needs to be at the top of every artists must see list if you haven't had the pleasure already... Even if an interactive immersive art form will eventually replace cinema as the culturally predominant experience.… -
Best way to make ivy?

Re: Convincing rust in Substance
I would say, search for reference images of rusted objects similar to the one you are working on. Generally speaking rust happens evenly on unprotected iron surfaces exposed to moisture. So the rust pattern depends on - how does any protective layer on the metal looks like (e.g. scratches on paint, chipping paint, ...) -… -

What are some of your best practices for baking normal maps?
(that's Blender by the way, aww yeahhh) I'm never good at this, I've read up on it plenty; I've found it's best to bevel where I can afford to add faces, to triangulate my low poly mesh before baking, make sure faces on each mesh aren't too far away from eachother (I actually have some of this happening here so I know I… -
What's the best practice for tweaking animation speeds
Hello everyone! Ok what do I mean? Say, I have a sword attack animation in game. And now the "designer" wants to makes the preparation section shorter (== faster), the actual swing even faster and then the sword should stay in place just for a moment before retracting. So in short: making the animation "snappier". Now…
