Re: Building a GPU powered painting program.
Hard round is the name of an art community I run on discord, but it's also... it's just a good name.
Heavy paint is cool! Totally different goals though. Heavy paint is actually a mesh painting program under the hood, not raster.pxgeek said:Looks really interesting! Reminds me somewhat of Heavypaint.Looking forward to see where this leads!
It really focuses on expressive brush strokes and painting in app, and isn't very useful as an image editor.
Procreate and Heavy Paint are the only two apps I've seen successfully rethink how painting apps should work, I'm trying to be the third.
My goals are more, look at why photoshop is still used by painters, solve that problem space, without missing any features, and improve the ux on every aspect I can. I'm aiming for more, everything a riot splash screen artist would want in their arsenal.

oops. I'm so used to just drawing the brows in texture, that I forgot ='D
Re: Advice with secondary forms
Okay. Ordinarily, I was going to do it within ZBrush after the secondary forms, but my mentor recommended SP due to having more control with the scaling of alphas etc. Plus, I think because it would be faster to work on/with due to it being a low poly model. I think the original artist - Jason Martin - said he uses SP for the tertiary, too.pxgeek said:I’m not sure if that would matter much, but my personal preference would be to have it cleaned up if I was going save tertiary details for the texture/substance phase. But I can be a little ocd about that kind of thing if I’m going to go out of my way to compartmentalize the process like that.
I’d be inclined to do the tertiary details in the high poly phase anyway...but again, just personal preference.

Re: Show your 3D Prints!
Doesn't stop me making models to print though! Figured I might as well post some shots in case it sparks any interest. Anyway.. here's a few shots. It's made in a way that you could print it in full colour using a single print head, so it packs in at a whopping 230 STL's 😂 Or a single 3mf.
Since I can't do it myself at present, figured I'd see if anyone was brave/stupid enough to wanna try printing it. Hit me up if you think you're willing!

DustyShinigami said:I do have a question actually. I did ask my mentor and they said it depends on the asset. But for something like this creature, something that's organic, would it be best to keep a lot of the messy brush strokes to aid the tertiary details? I aim to do those in Substance Painter. Or should I clean/smooth it down prior to retopping/baking?
Yep personal preference.
Something like dishonored or arcane, they both have makers marks visible, overwatch does not. Ect.
