patreon isn't on your signature here. i dont have time for the actual tutorials but i make a small donation cause i learned a lot from your post here on polycount. not a huge tip but i picked up a lot of followers for my games from posting on reddit and imgur. It's a different subject but maybe if you are showing cool…
Just a thought,.... Did you try the ZBrush 2018 version? I have just been testing the new 'project primitive' tool. It looks like you can model anything with it and if static models are your only goal, you could couple it with keyshot to produce some very attractive renders. The tool seems dynamesh based that uses a…
the benefit to UE4's subscription model over unity's though, is in the "addons". UE4 is the complete package, including source code for $20 p/m. Unity is $75 p/m for access to their tools (being able to write your own scripts does not mean full source access). PLUS, another $75 p/m if you want to develop for android, and…
I've done some work on her proportions, and I feel that her figure is more loyal to the concept now. The two most notable features about her silhouette in the concept were a skinny waist and large hips. Let me know if you have anything more to say about her proportions though. I've also done some work on her face.…
I really jaw-dropped when I open your thread lol. So many people here are so good at their craft! About the buildup. I see that you would like the particle to gather at the top before launching off? My suggestion is that the 'flower' should be on the ground. It launches an orb which would then attract butterflies and then…
Hey man! Another really nice pic, though I'll have to agree with Harleybone with regards to the lighting. The reflection from the fire on the left wall seems very bright. It attracts the viewer's eye a bit too much methinks, since the lighting on the opposite wall is much more subdued which makes the left wall stand out…
I think he meant it more like a joke where Germany is almost always under the spotlight with the current issues in EU, kinda like how the Queen is said to rule UK, but lets face it, it's an internal group of assassins that actually does that. I'm not too well versed about Germany, but every country I have been to always…
or just say screw a portfolio and try and get hired on your personality. :) doesn't really matter which, if you worry about which one then you're wasting time. even if a studio doesn't use unreal.. i'd still say to go more in that direction to show you can learn an engine enough to get your shit looking pretty so they…
I agree. Don't underestimate start ups who'll pay you a salary. Even if they're in an industry that's only tangential to gamedev (e-learning, military e-training, medical visualisation), I recommend giving it a shot as you climb your way towards the bigger badder studios out there. Aside from aiming to acquire an…
The level of unjustified butthurt in this thread is astounding. I could go either way on this. On the one hand, Massive Black has done a ton of really great work for some very big and very successful games. On the other, they're basically just a bunch of artists with no track record of having released products themselves…
