That's what I said! I said that to the guy! and then he punched me in the face. Wah wah waaaaah.

Delz: 3DS max. that's what the wow team uses. and i has learned to use it in 2 days.

beavotron

you're not punching hard enough
did they turn you down or something?

They said i needed to work on my hand painted textures some more. Which i am. I think I made a good impression. Gonna meet some more Blizzard guys this weekend.

Hey hey, Sword Dog 4 published by activision blizzard!

TheBog

I fucking love Sword Dog.

Everything else is pretty cool too, I guess.

earthwormadam

Oh man Sword Dog is such a great character. I already have a dog, but I would totally adopt Sword Dog. Totally.

PROX

I'm happy to have such great fans. thanks for your support. Sword Dog appreciates it.

Kendeathwalker

wow they rejected you? I get flash backs to my gaming days(highschool) when I look at this stuff.

RubberAC

Can't wait for World of Sword Dog

I think it looks like it came straight from the WoW... but not the expansions. Their textures have gotten a lot better since then.

I got a nicely worded no from them on the concept art front
Sad face indeed.

PROX

Sorry to hear wassermelone. FIGHT ON!

Here is the wall updated:

NightDragon

Wicked nice textures, mang. The mossy/mildewy patches look a little blurry and undefined on some of the upper rocks. Maybe you could define the edges a little more? Some of 'em look a little splotchy (and the patches on the largest rock don't make too much sense, they seem kinda random, and probably shouldn't go up that high).

Still, nice work overall, on both of 'em.

MagicToaster

Is that Gun Cat?

PROX

Thanks for the feedback ND. I will work on thems.

MT: Roughly.

PROX

More art:

Sublimus

Nice one, man! I really enjoy the simplicity of the color work. nothing is really lost because of it.

Prospicience

Man, I would totally climb from that lower land to the upper one. <3 the color

Mustang

Moar contrast! Looks good though.

Lexxy

Love it, Prox! One of these days I'll follow your example and kick my ass into working on some environments.

PROX

Thank you for your words.

I'm going to stand my ground on this one mustang! I think moar contrast would ruin the mood of the environment. It seems kinda like he's going for midday lighting. I feel like it'd feel more dark and ominous if he added more contrast.

Reminds me of the new prince of persia environments once you've cleansed areas:

Spoiler:

close as I can get to a picture of what I'm talking about:

tynic

sooo saturatedddd

I'm assuming it's not finished, though.

PROX

It's a rough concept sketch, to get a general idea for something and get a lot of pow. Gonna do another iteration.

PROX

So i finally figured out how to do this:

PROX

I'm pretty proud of myself:



Btw would anyone be willing to pay for some tutoring? I have a live stream and am thinking about setting some tutoring stuff.

I'm planning to basically teach how to get to where I am now:

modeling
painting
texturing
basic shaders

both max
and maya


If you are how much would be a good price?

edit: I think I might have gone too realistic with those cobbles.

PROX

update:

PROX

WIP:




Kinda boring. maybe won't finish it.

Otto Germain

I dunno, I think those clouds have some nice motion to them... might just need some tweaks. Perhaps there is something that can be done with the ground?

NightDragon

Is the ground stuff WIP?

Both the clumps of grass, and the stonework in the 2nd image could use some size variations...It looks a little too uniform to me.

PROX

thanks for the feedback.

I'm going to come back to the hurricane idea later. I don't have any inspiration for what to do with the ground yet.

ND: I was making tiled textures for my 3D work. They are pretty uniform and I want to change them up. I am currently working on other assets for that scene though. I will come back to them if there is time.

edit: That texture work is result of learning how to do texturing blending with custom shaders built in Shader FX.

Delzhand

As far as that ground texture goes, I'd give some more attention to the separation. Pavement stones don't typically just fade away as they approach grass.

Also, if I weren't so busy with the programming aspect of my game, I would fucking love to have you tutor me in environmental 3d, because I'm almost at the point where I want to make it look nice.

PROX

I can't really control it that well due to texture blending.

Tombstones:




edit: btw for ground textures you dont want too much variance, or else people will see the repetition easier.

PROX

PROX

Things are coming together!

deadlydorito

thats based on the wow cataclysm concept art huh.

niceeee

PROX

Took a break from 3D to start on a poster idea I had:
