The future of the entire 3d industry is looking pretty grim with more and more senior/mid artists applying for a junior role. Seems like leaving this field is the only viable option. How many of you guys here are currently working full time? And how are you guys coping?

A have a modicum of artistic ambition so I would never stoop low enough to work in the art industry

The only solution is to go indie. Find a coder partner and work together for a cool project of a genre you both enjoy

I currently am involved in traditional mediums (pencils, pens, paint) and do 3d to explore rendering styles. My goal is to work from imagination and render by hand with no reference in 2d with lots of speed and quality. I've seen some progress, and I never have to deal with tech issues. My largest issue is running out of a material and having to reorder or drive to the store

If you work for microdick ea Disney soiny you and everyone else in there should quit and make your own shit. You won't all make it but you can help each other while shitting all over the above mentioned which makes it worth it.

I have a comfy full time job as a vidya animator. From my experience the standards in vidya industry are still very low (gamers are retards) but I can see a trend of burnt-out artists from the film industry coming in and raising the output quality.

vfx artists know jack shit about content for video games mate, as soon as they hear about optimization they give up

tl note: standards means using the sculpt directly in the game without lods (and not with nanite)

I don't have to imagine. I was working there. And that's how that hobby died down.
