Hi,

your work looks very good and profesional, and I bet your prices reflect that, so why not advertise on OGA properly instead?

@silkroadgame:

Your model looks excellent to me.  I'm not a 3D artist, for the record, but I don't see any obvious flaws or issues.

Also, I want to say for the record that it is the official opinion of the OGA staff that you are more than welcome to post about your art on our forums.  I apologize if the above post made you feel unwelcome in any way.

I do apologize if my comment made such an impression, it certainly was not my intent  Though I see now why, with my poor choice of words.  I only wanted to point out that you could really benefit from advertising on OGA's front page, since you seem to offer a professional service.

I stumbled upon this post  on accident otherwise i wouldn't know about your services, and if I had a budget for my game I'd likely contact you guys, because this is the kind of stuff i'm ultimately aiming/wishing for in my game.

If your intent was only to get some comments & critiques on the actual work itself then please don't mind my posts, and all I can say is that it looks very AAA to me.

Maybe it is lost on me why posting non-free art for feedback on an open art site (as in, stuff that is shared) is beneficial for anyone. I guess a bit of free advertising / SEO link stuff.

It would be nice if there were more of a point to this other than posting fancy pictures - perhaps highlighting a technique used or discussing a specific modelling problem. At the moment there is nothing to engage anybody other than getting corny feedback like vk's.

It's just not in the spirit of the site, despite barts' very polite welcoming message. (Note: bart runs the site, I do not.)

One idea might be to make the portraits available for use under a suitable license, whilst linking to your site for further [paid] access to the models.

The texture work on the male is very impressive to me. how many years did it take you to reach that level of quality. 7-8 ?

What was the process for texturing that horse?  Did you use photos, or is it all digitially painted, or some combination thereof?

Nice textures your team made.

Concerning time needed for the textures, have you checked out www.3d.sk? They have a nice commercial repository there. Sure this is not as sophisticated as drawing them from zero but it safes time.

Is this the work of one 3D artist? How long has he/she been doing 3D art? It looks amazing, I hope to be this skilled one day.

The textures on all those models are amazingly realistic.  Great work.  I am curious what the textures would look like at a low resolution, though.  I imagine all of them are at a very high resolution.  Regardless of that, I love the result.

I'm on Charlie's side, though.  This seems like blatant advertising to me.  You haven't really shared any information about the artist; you just talk about the company.  I would like to know more technical details about the art, like the resolution of the textures and the polycount.  I also want to know if anyone in the company has contributed to the open source or public domain scene, and if so, I want to know what was contributed and where I can get it.
