Im trying to learn character concept art and 3d models, I don't know many people to talk about this with.
If there is a discord, forum, steam group, literally anything that's active where I can talk about this subject please LMK!

Am I missing something or does the 3d community seem to be very checkered on sharing?
Sure theres the easy stuff to get like open3dlab, SFMlab, Smutbase, some good stuff at sketchfab, and if you want something decent on Itch or Gumroad you have to already have found a good modeler in mind to find their stuff
Not to mention sometimes you can find models in animations or youtube with next to no credit so its near impossible to find sometimes, I get if its your own model you'd want to have private ownership but 8/10 times thats not the case

Anyone has textures.com subscription? Could you please grab and share Rock Alpha 9 (https://www.textures.com/download/various-0022/133303)? Even 512 is good, but higher resolution would be amazing. This is the ultimate alpha rock texture for sculpting landscapes because you can anchor-apply it at different scales and the way it layers with itself works amazing. I found another good general purpose alpha like this (the first one in the pack): https://www.cgtrader.com/free-3d-models/textures/miscellaneous/rock-brush-collection I still want Rock Alpha 9 for variety and because it's even more flexible, and with two of those I think we have 80% of landscape rock sculpting needs covered.

Why is it that everyone who has successfully made it into a studio job... simply have no personality? All they do is eat, sleep, breathe, and talk about the type of work that they're skilled in. Has the 3DCG industry at-large reached the point where only silver spoon nepo babies and people who are autistic enough to have no other qualities/traits but making fancy computer art, have serious consideration by studios for jobs?

Jobs are drying up. Talented 3D artists are getting laid off. Accept it, it's over. The jobs aren't coming back and AI is going to take over this field. So accept it. Accept it and go into trades. Quit doing this this and do real work. Go be an electrician. Just quit living with your head in the clouds. Move on.

What's a good low poly texture workflow for Blender?

It feels inefficient to make them in Photoshop then save them then check them in Blender then have to eyeball what to fix and go back to Photoshop and hope I'm addressing the issues, is there something that would streamline this a bit? Blender's own texture painter is complete ass for low res/pixel art textures

Every single art learning video I come across has been either purposefully vague and unhelpful or misinformation. Even from industry professionals. FlippedNormals, Marc Brunet, Ethan Becker.
I thought they would help me know what the pro workflow is, why is it all click bait?

>Flow is making waves even (or especially? They like cute shit so I guess it's expected) in japan where 3DCG is more dominated by Maya and the like
Will this mean Blender will gain more notoriety over there?
I know it's already used quite a lot in Japan as is, but mostly by amateurs and for vtubers afaik

Anonymous No. 1008590

Everything I read on reddit is complete doom and gloom about the 3D industry right now. In fact the entire job market just seems completely up the shitter. I was really banking on being able to find work doing this but that seems like it's not an option. Now even being a prodigy doesn't cut it anymore. How do you land a job?

🧵 "Thank you, Blender"

Anonymous No. 1008528

Great, that's all that the big-headed Blender Foundation needed, even more praise and ego stroking (the animated Oscar winner thanked them).

So now they can keep investing their precious open-source funding that so many other FOSS projects thirst for, into useless stuff like the VSE (video sequence editor) that will never compete with proprietary or even specialized solutions, while somehow ignoring the many quality-of-life and useful ideas available in rightclickselect or in the ACTUAL CODE from pull-requests that people send them with useful additions, stuff that they refuse to add / ignore and let rot because they don't have to create a competitive product that sells, as it's already funded.

Blender gets to become this bloaty sluggish package that only "looks good" because there's no competition. There is no other 3D DCC package, and even if someone tried to create one they'd be discouraged from evangelist comments like "but Blender already exists".
But hey look, we changed the version number to 4. Hooray, that's progress, right?
Thank you, Blender?
More like get your shit together, Blender.
