This is literally no better than grey PS2 Steppenwolf from wheddons JL

That's the consequence of PC culture. I remember back in 2007, the tone on 3D forums was much more real and rough occasionally.
3D forums were packed full with people - nobody was using facebook or whatever, and there were long threads with discussions.
And yes, people hated on each others models and complained about "lifeless blobby ZBrush abominations" all the time.
That was also before everything was outsourced to Indians and Chinese.
good times

>>764560
sounds like 3D forums were lot like 4chan back then
unfiltered and sometimes bitter for sake of being bitter but still better than this overly PC shit
oh and forgot to mention this critique immunization only applies to you if you are "pro" a.k.a work at big studio/have followers, if you are independent or beginner artist you will still get shit on, its only after u pass certain threshold where suddenly even your turd is praised

Bullshit, back then as now most people arent looking for feedback, especially amateurs that even if you told them what you did wrong would not know how to fix it.
It was like this back then and is like this now. And pros often dont look for it and rather ask people they know are good for opinions that random strangers.
Amazing art is still produced, as is shit art, been like this always and will be like this.

Polycount is the same cunt tone wise as always, meanwhile social networks are the same circle jerk.
And dunno what forums you went to, but i did to max zbrush and mudbox, mudbox is dead, zbrush forums stayed the same, and where nobody took sculpting seriously due to its technical limitations it quickly became a standard and nobody complained it looks likes stretched polygons into a shape anymore when baking maps became a thing.
Not to mention sculpting left polymodeling for characters behind, while you could hear coping angry mayalets insulting people using other software those people were ether left behind or had to adjust and learn too.

>normal people are sick of it?
Who gives a shit about "normal people".
Who are you producing art for, yourself? For a folio? To flex on other artists? Or for facebook likes?

>>764590
if you are artist making money and working in industry you're making money for normal people to consume. nobody pays you for your personal project
sonics redesign was forced by normal people
studios and movies go bankrupt when normal people dont get product they wanted
thats why this cyclejerk is dangerous slippery slope
you only get opinions from likeminded "experts" and expect to appeal to wide audience your product is for

OP have you ever looked at the artstation front page, it's full of a variety of different art styles and mediums.My artstation is nothing but the type of content I like to see

VFX is artistically bankrupt because hollywood is artistically bankrupt.

sounds like you're just butthurt that you have to actually get good at 3d in order to gather attention, that's how the world works buddy.

Every 3d forum or discord (with the exception of /3/ of course) I've been on was generally quite accepting of beginners so long as you don't have an attitude problem.

I dont have artstation page yet im still working on my portfolio
i said this out from observation of comments artists get
ive seen beginners do things ive never seen by professionals and still get judged way more harshly just because they dont have same reputation

also since you seem experienced i got few questions
what would you suggest, making artstation page that is focused on one aspect, like creature art and concepts only, or game ready models only or 2D illustrations only or can i just be jack of all trades? since i enjoy different things i dont really know where to narrow it down but i think showing 1 strong side is more marketable than showing many of them

One of the saddest image i've ever seen... All that work to end up with what looks like a drawing of medium quality.

You’re pointing the gun at the wrong person. 3D artists are seasonal employees with no jurisdiction over character design or style. They’re handed an idea and told to realize it. If they’re lucky they might be given a text description that allows some creative input but not always. The most crucial designs are always handled by the directors or other high ranking or senior developers, NOT the 3D artists unless they fill in the position that does both which is *rarely* the case.

rendering and quality of 3d model is more of an issue than design itself

>>764619
i dont get this
2 last pics are different?
one is 3D and one 2D?

>>764906
you stupid little cunt

>>764904
Then yeah that’s a 3D artist problem

>>764911
you posted a retarded image with retarded panels and im stupid cunt literally neck yourself faggot

>>764906
Left is 2D drawing right is 3d art and right is way better imo

>>764926
left looks more like 3d and right looks more like 2d so i guess both did good job on meeting at middle?
but yeah right looks better

>>764942
Zoom in in the images

>>764553
character and creature design, especially in scifi, has turned to absolute shit in the new millennium

>>764553
I wish I was this good

>>764553
What is this low res jpg shit? I'm supposed to make comparisons with this?

>>764906

>>765842
I'm phone posting so won't bother looking up to confirm which one is what, but by looking to the smoke they all seem to be different iterations of the same work

>>764553
>Why are 3D artists such oblivious cyclejerking losers
Nepotism obviously. If you criticize professionals you "don't get along well with others". If you suck up you're "enthusiastic and have a shared vision". Nobody is going to recommend to HR the guy that took a dump on their latest demo.

>>766469
yea i think thats the main reason
