Whenever artists try to do something nice for the community such as uploading a 3D viewer scene, there is always someone poised to exploit that for a quick buck. Getting really tired of it.

Hey guys, please never buy from here. Support independent artists and buy direct from the artist, ESPECIALLY original IP. I will never make money from the Tifa model, it’s purely for hobby. The sketchfab geo they ripped is a decimated mess and wont look good printed out.

Hi friends. Lately I’ve been quiet on Twitter as I’ve been dealing with some health issues. Those of you who know me IRL might already be aware of my heart condition, where I was born with a misshapen aortic valve. On Tuesday I will be having bypass surgery to replace the valve.

With the talk about art school going around, just want to put it out there that if you plan on working outside your own country one day, a 3 year degree/bachelors is usually required for a visa. A degree gives you much more flexibility, so factor it in if that’s important to u 💪

Some more thought inspired by Baj and @UnicornDevGames . I think it would be beneficial for some teams to switch to the more granular character designer and visual development roles instead of lumping any kind of 2d into concept art.

Doing this will allow me to lead a normal life for many years before reintervention is required. It’s been difficult with this hanging over me, separated from family in UK but finally it’s happening & soon it will be over. I’ll be taking a month or so to recover from the surgery.

It’s not a compliment to us, it’s belittling when someone brings up looks in an environment where we’re supposed to be valued for ability. It doesn’t feel good at all, Marie wasn’t obligated to explain this and doesn’t have to be ‘nice’

Sorry guys, I don't like to be snarky or passive aggressive but this has gone a bit too far. Overlaying a bunch of OW character faces and acting AMAZED that they're similarly proportioned is not revolutionary or some kind of impressive detective work.

Its just visual illiteracy at this point if you can't read a consistent style and expect every face to be in proportional wacky land. That clearly isn't the intention here. Stop acting like you're E'XPOSING LAZY ARTISTS', making appealing faces is extremely difficult.

@Baj_Singh I could write a whole essay as to why achieving their fidelity isn’t possible in most other genres! But in a nutshell, most medium-large game studios do not have such a strong history or culture of 2d/sprite anim as Arcsys and the determination to recreate it absolutely in 3D.
