Re: Is the game industry really that bad to work in?
Check out this thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=137206 Part of my reply in it, but there is lots of good info from others beyond me rambling. I think you'll find the industry all depends on people's history, path, expectations, and things like that. It's not cut and dry. There's good and bad and it's… -
Re: Forum is sooo sloooooowwww
I was just gonna post this ! It's been slow for me for at least a few days now, though. Posting something will take forever. Then it will say I have to wait another 15sec cuz you can only post once every 30secs. But it's actually already posted @_@ Gahhhhh, what happened !?? Chrome here, btw. -
Re: Game Art Education - What do I need?
You dont NEED college. Id suggest buying all the gnomon/eat3d tutorials in your specialty for only about $1500 instead of taking out a $50k+ loan, and continue studying from home/personal.

Re: 32bit Color: Industry Default for Display
Wait a min, perhaps slightly off-topic but I thought hex only used 6 digits? As in: #FF9900 being 255-153-00 So how exactly would it work if you got nine digits? #0FFF006C1 = 025-125-?? I'm confused :[ -

Re: Portfolio Critique: Riot Games Internship Response
Like others have said, you are off to a good footing by posting here and being open about critique. Some resources to get into character art from the beginning: Learn anatomy. Step back from doing anything pertaining to creatures and non-humanoid studies/pieces, or at least do not make them a focus until you can grasp the… -

Re: Lionhead Studios petition
1500 people is nothing. unless they have like 2-5 million users commit to buying their next game, this decision won't change. -
Re: Medical VR
I think that's too low. Staffing/ hiring needs, I'd anticipate a project like that to hire: - a writer - an SME (subject matter expert to work with writer); when you say "good" I won't expect a programmer to just copy from a medical text and make sense fromit - VR coder or two (depending on budget and alloted timeframe) -…
