Sketchbook: Preston Sawyer

ThatOtherGuy

Hi my name is Preston Sawyer and I am another generic recent grade from Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design. I mostly do characters but I can do other 3Ds works as well. Here are some characters that I made with my mad mediocre skills.


















I have way more screen shots on my site (link below).

Hey look, more crap! Not final renders but something to give you a general idea.

ThatOtherGuy

Oh look, more stuff! WIP for a character that I was inspired to do after reading about the "Lesser Keys of Solomon" on wikipedia... Because that's how I spend my quality time.

Okay I got this done last night. Time for something more light hearted!

Oooh, I like the wings and the color scheme on that first one.
And don't downplay yourself man, you have some good stuff going on here.

Naw I just like poking fun at myself.

Thanks for the comment, it's been kinda of a struggle to get better at this when you have Murphy's Law hanging around you

So here is something I started today as part of my "I-am-unemployed-project": Recreate monsters from Diablo II.

Here is the start of the "Megademon" class from Act IV. Should be done by the end of the week.

Holy butt crackers it's been a while since I've posted here. Oh well, time to dump some finished stuff and WIP:

Images aren't showing up. The new forum software doesn't use [IMG] tags anymore. Use the "Attach Image/File" button instead, or you can use the "Toggle HTML View" if you prefer.

Okay that I didn't expect. Was trying to fix that problem a day ago. Thanks for the heads up.

Also I don't know if this is the appropriate place to ask but I keep getting "file is already in discussion, cannot upload" when the image itself is clearly not in the discussion.

That's interesting, I have not seen that before. Thanks for bringing it up. I will investigate and let you know what I find.

Please use JPG instead of PNG. Saving a JPG at level 8 converts a 8MB PNG down to a 128kb JPG, and looks virtually identical.

See the thread http://polycount.com/discussion/161965/why-is-everyone-using-massive-png-files-for-their-shots/p1 .

Cropping your work also helps save file size, and helps your art look better on mobile (less scrolling and zooming needed).

Also, I recommend branding your images. Even wips.

It's been a while since I've added anything. Oh well, here's some stuff:

Life takes you on strange roads and because of that I finally had some good time to finish a few things. Enjoy! (warning image heavy)
