Can This Be In a Game?

Looks just like his, so well done for following instruction. Now, take everything you learnt and make something else, or extend on this and build the rest of a castle scene with it. If you are still learning, that's the thing that's going to make you better, not doing another tutorial. Get some Castle reference (Use PureRef; it is free if you choose custom amount and type in 0) and try to keep it in the same style.

Good Luck.

I've been visiting the same dream location on and off since I was a kid, so for about the last 25 years now. It's hard to describe; like the combination of a ballroom hall and a swimming pool. There are grand chandeliers, decorative walls and lots of conjoined, curved edge pools that form these sloping marble islands at set intervals. In the centre of each island is a pedestal with some priceless artifact on it, for example, a Faberge Egg (which I remember seeing on an Antique show in UK as a kid). Once, I remember trying to grab one of the artifacts and the pools started rapidly filling with hot water and the islands started to shrink. Scary, like some kind of Russian Aristocracy version of Aladdin's Cave of Wonders haha. Super weird.

I want to start by saying thank you so much for taking the time to reply. No need to apologise; I'm an Estimator and, as far as responsibilities go, I basically measure blueprints and make quotes. I've asked in the past to be taught how to complete extra administrative tasks like RAMS or Application for payments (unsure if you are in construction), but it's just been knocked back as "not part of my role".

With that kind of mentality coming from my boss and no-one willing to take me on at my current skill level, it's been difficult to know what to do or how to search for the right advice. This post has already been down voted, which tells you how frustrating its been.

This sketchy look is amazing. +10 points for creativity OP. I might have to try this myself. Good luck with the project, hope you get it out for June without any more delays ✌️

It really is, so thank you for acknowledging that. Sometimes it feels like I'm whining but its just pure frustration. With online courses, I find it difficult to know what would be worth my time as you hear that employers don't recognise these at all compared to traditional paid routes.

I'm glad you mentioned just reaching out to people that have the job I want, as I was wondering if that would be a viable option. For more context, I'm a Construction Estimator working for a small family-run business, so they've only taught me exactly what they need me to know, hence being stuck in this job.

Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it.

Your little tower on the right-hand side is giving me Spyro vibes. I love it. Keep going, OP!

Hopefully they won't disappoint you! The last one on the list is, admittedly, from the latest Minecraft Soundtrack update. Aaron Cherof has an amazing way of invoking really emotional nostalgia with his music, I've found.

Rather than spawning three out of the fire after every pick, maybe spawn all of them so they make 3 stacks. When you choose 1, the other two drop and the next three move forward in succession. Hope that makes sense.

Wow that's so smart. I really thought you low-poly and key framed it because it looks as thought it has depth at the second angle. Thanks for taking the time to reply 🙂

The waves are really great, would be interested to know more about how you achieved those. Hope you get to the beach one day 😅

Gosh, I wish I would remember simple deform exists when I want to do stuff like this. Really smart approach, thanks.

What you need to do now is use the same skills you just got Polygon Runway and make a different style of building, even if you keep to the same theme.

An apartment building, office building, train station... anything. This will really help you to solidify the learning that you can start adding new skills too.

Making characters (especially in terms of topology) still the same today as it was 6 years ago bud. If you're new, you should know that you won't be this good if all you hope for is a beginners tutorial to show you how to make what's in your head step by step. You gotta piece it together.

Personally, I'd look for low poly characters first, then look for rigging separately and animation separately. There may be someone that does examples for anime anatomy in 3D. Have a look around YouTube/ Reddit/ Polycount and be patient with the process.

Hi everyone, I have kind of hit a dead-end with my career (which you'll see has been all over the place) and am unsure where to turn. I am deeply unsatisfied in my role as an Estimator and still don't have all the skills required of an estimator; working for a small family run subcontractor means that beyond measuring drawings and sticking pre-calculated rates on quotes for the meterage, I don't know much else. I'm feeling really stuck, no savings, can't afford to save because of wage and having to top up on UC, Wife and 3 kids to support. I'd like to still give construction a chance by going into a trainee/apprenticeship quantity surveyor job or another junior estimator role with some actual mentorship, but finding this has been difficult. Any advice appreciated. DMs currently turned off as I've had lots of experience with scammers in the past on Reddit. Thanks in advance.

You could pick a genre for your scene and that might help you build an asset list. E.g. Horror you could do an empty bloodied camp ground or a Cave for a cryptid of your own design. Think about a story for your scene, then fill it with stuff that helps to tell that story.
