SinKing

Martin joined May 24, 2006

I've been going around as a writer, but started getting drawn into Concept Art and 3D modeling. I'm currently finishing my studies as a 3D artist and will then be let loose on the world. Beware!

Jeez - I'm looking for work in my town Hamburg, Germany. If you ever look for work in games, don't come here. Last year Bigpoint released some 200 developers and they are still swarming around here. It's virtually impossible to even get as much as an internship.

After 3 years of studying and looking back on all the things I can do (write, paint, model/texture) that is quite a setback. So what to do?
The only thing I know to do is to apply worldwide now. I hope to find a position, where I can learn writing for games or work as a consultant to the writers. Since I worked as storyliner before, I might be able to help. However, if I find work in a bigger studio it will probably be so specialized, I won't have much time to think about other things.

I wonder what the work situation is like out there for "ordinary" people. I have gone to college and took some extra courses. I got degrees in English and Spanish Language, wrote and co-wrote several books and screenplays AND I learned 3D and most everything involved. You'd think that would score me a job, right? Polly want a cracker?

Yo, danke!

Hab' ich selber noch nicht dran gedacht, ich tue nur was ich für richtig halte. Was hab' ich denn für dich getan? Erinner' mich an gar nichts...

Hi Sink, die sollten dir endlich mal das "Helper"-Tag im Forum verpassen. Wer hätte das mehr verdient als du?

I'm great, am working on glider concepts (troop transport) at the moment and it's a blast. I'm looking forward to post some of our new work in a month or so, as it's really beginning to look promising.

Yeah, I am registered at SMCars as well. It was one of the first sources I found for car blueprints. It's crazy the amount of detail some people cram into those vehicles. I'm debating on whether to keep mine lower poly, or use a mesh smooth, and really refine the details.

Thanks :)
I have tried it though, and the installer said I must live in the United States to play the game. I even tried to cheat that program but it didn't work either. However that's not a big deal since the game costs currently only few euros.
