Texture Artist - Modelling

[ElShotte]

Hey guys, I want to apply for a Texture Artist/Skinner/2D Design position, below is a link to a .rar file with my work, I had more, but due to a recent HD failure I got stuck with what I had on the FTP.

I played Splinter Cell since the beginning, I am familiar with the versus mode, allthough I haven't played it much, never had any decent people to play with.

Takes Abit to download. Slow net? But cant wait :D

[ElShotte]

It's not even 3 Mb. ;)

[Meathead]

They are cool. I see you use 3dmax with your models very cool And you have your own site?

[ElShotte]

Nah, I need to make a portfolio page, just can't get to it.

[Meathead]

Ma i ask why do they have the logo for truecombat?

[ElShotte]

Perhaps because they were made for TrueCombat: Elite and as I said I grabbed them from my FTP. All those guns were made for TrueCombat:Elite, but they don't have the watermark because they are the originals. Visit the site and see for yourself. My alias there was ShoT.

Nice renders!  You comfortable working with normal maps?  It we can get a highpoly modeller, would you be cool with creating the low poly model and the normal maps?  Texture Artists should be creating their own UVs which is why I suggest that.

First time that I'm a bit late.  ;D I think that's great because that means that this site is coming alive.

Here's the standard message that I post below every sollicitation.
Thanks for the offer. Check the site to stay up to date. When enough people have signed up, we're going to assemble the actual team. In the meantime you can chat in the public discussion about the game. Don't forget to spread the word. We still need more developers.

[ElShotte]

Yeah I can work with normal maps man. I can UV, I can rig... although I prefer not to go as deep into one model as rigging and animating, for time conserving reasons.

[Meathead]

Cool man cant wait. And yea i know what you mean by time with rigging and stuff.

[goodkebab]

i will probably doing all the character stuff...so no need of rigging on your part.  I have a coworker i might persuade into animating (he is far better then me at it)

[ElShotte]

Roger. (Whew thank God, I hate rigging). Also, I have noticed I am the only Texture Artist applying?

EDIT: I've just spoken to a friend of mine in the industry, and he says he has access to about 5 gigs of Mo-Cap data that he could let us have.

[MacBryce]

What's the license on the Mo-Cap data? If it's "stolen" or "borrowed from a company's archive without their consent", then we don't need it.

[ElShotte]

Not sure, going to have to ask him.
