also ... include HOW you made the images. Like images of polygon models, without colors or textures . That really sells that it is your work, and not something you copied.

I like indie studios more than big studios. They look more hungry but humble. But it all depends on each studio, I knew a guy who was working at a small start-up, and disliked working there because the founder was rude. You don't know until you are in.

I didn’t think about my portfolio in brick and pillars, and now I do. Before this video my portfolio was all about full characters which you had mentioned as pillars. Lol that would be a whole colosseum.

interesting to see you here i like your stuff

Start freelancing to build professional experience. If you choose the right jobs it will fill out your portfolio while earning a bit of money.

Currently working a full time job that's not in my interest at all so I won't starve while I freelance and build a portfolio☠️ But we can do it!!

Big games and AAA can be tempting, but in the reality they're mostly management hells, where you're barely a human being and where crunch is still very common. Where you have to contribute to a project which is under that strict NDAs, that you can't show anything from your work (pure artistic steal imo). Also after 8 hrs or more work in the studio you barely want to work on personal projects, so those will also stuck more frequently.. I would rather suggest to aim AAA quality art in your life, but don't aim those places for your own sanity. AAA is sucks :D

I believe in you man! I’m on the same journey! It’s a matter of just keep trying and being focused 👍

thank you!

thank you dude

good timing. good luck!

@@artofjhill thank you 😭💖

💯

happy to hear that. I hope it helps

of course. I hope it helps

Love you!

oh stawp :)

Of course. Good luck

🙏

I recommend only the strongest work. Some put all their old work in one post or you could use other places like social media or blogs to catalogue progress over time

You got it

Ipad Pro is wonderful for both drawing and sculpting- I highly recommend it

I recommend a non display tablet for begginer or even a professional. There are a lot of problems involved in display tablets . Which will make u have buyers remorse. So it's safe choice to pick non display tablet. It takes a few weeks to get hand eye coordination. After that it will be good

Yes that’s the neighborhood. Even those two won’t be the exact same. Kratos probably around 200k+ sometimes. LODs are a thing. The future is more and more polygons

I don’t one but I don’t think anytime soon and I don’t plan to ever stop

@@artofjhill 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

I’d do a range of styles that I’m interested in doing professionally. As long as they are strong examples, it would be a good thing.

I see! thanks for the answer :D@@artofjhill

@@artofjhillhow did you draw all these what apps did you use?

First of all don't use only blender, that is a big red flag. Other than that just take care what you do in blender follows the industry workflow. As long as the pipeline is the same there shouldn't be any problem to teach you an other software or even let you use blender. I'm seeing blender being used in major studios, it's just not the standard.

once you have several strong examples of your professional focus then the art you add can be more like flavor and additional things

depends on the hardware I think. the more CPU and RAM, the higher. but either way, it's always very high

@@artofjhill my pc just core i5_gen9 and Ram 16/1 and 8/1 at 3000mhz . maybe bacuse my cpu low !!

Always give credit. Sometimes I ask permission too or let them know. it all depends. but always credit the source

game artists do to be more hireable, yes.

👀

mostly art tests are phased out. My studio doesn't do them and I advise against them. It's asking for free labor. Also, studios do not give art tests to people that don't have strong enough portfolios to garner interest in the first place.

Layoffs are more related to corporate spending and shareholders imo. The game industry is growing larger year after year still and AI is not viable or legal yet. Who knows what the future is but art and creativity will never die and money isn’t the only reason to make things.

Adapt. Automatic elevators replaced operators, computers replaced specialized mathematicians for doing complex math calculations, cars replaced carriage makers, electrical lights replaced candle makers, the internet replaced travel agents... Human progress never stops, you either adapt or you get left behind crying.

You can't be replaced by AI itself. You can be replaced by artists who know how to use it. Just keep your finger on the pulse, learn new techniques and tools. That's how you stay competitive in any industry

Honestly, this Ai stuff doesn’t bother me. It’s annoying, but I’m gonna make my stuff regardless. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a privilege to be able to make money from what you love doing. Most people who have ever or will ever exist, won’t completely enjoy what they do for a living. You should feel forever grateful and lucky if you manage to pull it off. Art has never been my number 1 source of income. I’ve always made sure I have steady streams of income, either a full time job, or forms of passive income, and done freelance 3D art and anatomy lectures as a freelancer. Even now that I’ve gotten to a point where I make well over $3k a month doing art and anatomy training, I will never quit my full time job. I enjoy it, and it’s very stable and I won’t let go of a good thing, that so many would dream to have in this economy, just to “follow my dreams”. Ai or no Ai, I’m gonna make my art cuz I love it. And if we ever get to the point where all digital and even traditional art becomes obsolete on the market, I don’t care. I’m gonna make my art because it makes me happy.

This

@@bogdanyar3527 oooh thanks buddy 😄

Ha I got a bachelor’s too.

had same question

everyone cries once in a while

@@ehyzen What ZBrush does with people....

That would be even better

Use AI to generate nice comments.

That’s okay

Not saying this won't improve in the future, but as it stands right now the 3D models are pretty... shit. There wasn't much improvement in the past few years either, I believe it's very hard to train AI on this, because you have to have an understanding of the 3D shape from all perspectives - which AI doesn't have, because it's not able to understand yk
