Sketchbook: Sir Apple

Sir Apple

Hey everyone.

I've been shamelessly stalking this forum for awhile now. I find much inspiration from viewing the work of many talented artists here at polycount.

I'm currently really refining and developing my skills through projects that challenge myself and help me grow as an artist. So I want to share it here.

Here is some older stuff, I have a few projects going that I will post in the near future.

Hi everyone

Here is some newer works I've done recently. Have some tweaks to do, also working on lots of new stuff after getting some great inspiration and talking with some cool artists at GDC

Its all handpainted and I'd like to keep it that way. I've been trying to stop using any photo overlays for patches of grunge etc. on my textures, so I handpaint it all in photoshop. Its a little goal of mine, but I really prefer it and love the challenge











Thanks for looking!

Hehe. I love that little train car. There's something so cool about how precarious it looks. Love the details on the wheel bits too.

Sir Apple

Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it!

Here is the final on the Train Car

Wow great work!

I was just wondering about your preferred high poly method? I know some people, regardless of hard or soft sufaces, prefer to work in sculpting packages but I'm still undecided.

Again great work!

Sir Apple

Hey man thanks for your comment!

I just model it all out in 3dsmax, no sculpting or anything. Though I would like to sometime get into sculpting for more organic pieces like cloth and etc.... someday!

Starting a small 4 piece prop scene study. Finished the hipoly cart for said scene.

Love all of your stuff! I hope to work with more hard-surfaced stuff in the future, and I'd be happy to make it as good as yours. Good luck!

Sir Apple

Thank you Ale, much appreciated
