Re: suggestions for good grass planes?
I see harsh shadows on the grass turning blades of grass into tubes of grass. The harsh light/shadows also do not exists in the rest of the world, which makes for a much more fake world. You're using a normal map to create tonal changes in the grass diffuse, which can easily be done when painting the texture. Once again,… -
Re: Interview Advice
well, the question "what's your weakness" is useless BECAUSE a lot of people will lie or use a textbook answer like "I work too hard", "I'm a perfectionist" or any other "weakness" that can also be a strength at the same time. Now IF everyone were honest, then it would be a good question to ask. But the interviewer now has… -

Re: It seems to be impossible to find a job as a Modeler in this industry
While I do agree with this, it must be said that this isn't easy. When we've often talked about the kind of staff we think should work at these schools we have images in our heads of the very people who work in the industry. Probably some guy we get along with and has years of experience to turn into valuable wisdom for… -
Re: Digital Animation and Visual Effects School (DAVE) in Orlando

Warning: Wall of text below. :) My name is Angel Gonzalez and I am the… -
Re: Art/Creative Direction and Symbolism
Ged, I agree it has to be group effort. It is why I have been asking for directors or those under directors who did such. Not sure how it was interpreted to lone wolves? Fwiw I got suckered into being the art director on the current game my company is working on. Hence why I was seeking people who could testify from… -
Re: Most Efficient Way to Render Ready Game Models
For portfolio entries people usually upload high resolution content alongside detailed breakdowns, so is there a reason why you've chosen an optimised route? also yes various workarounds do exist however posting a pic or two would be nice, to enable effective advice instead of guess-work i.e. organic or hard surface...etc? -
Re: The War on Christmas!!!
Vig. Just because I'm an athiest doesn't mean I don't believe anything in the bible, and I never said anything to that effect. For example, the Christian god could be a very real evil alien overlord. Maybe he even created us. The fact is I don't know. All I know is that there is no such thing as a being with automatic… -
Re: Points For Toothbrushing: The Gaming Speech Everyone Is Talking About
I think the difference here is that Bob, is a fucking moron who can't manage his personal finances, has no self control or any sense of moderation. Junkies do what junkies do regardless of the substance. Why do we need to drive over to Bob's house and make sure to round off all the corners and wrap him in bubble tape? Why… -
Off Limits
I was recently told about this forum (I don't know why I never heard of this before, all I remember Polycount from is the Quake3 character downloads back in the day :p ). Either way, glad to be here and by the looks of it I'll stick around here as it looks nice and cosy :) I've been working on a mod together with a friend…
