[WIP] Low-Poly Island

akeru36

Hi everyone !
I'm doing a 3D low-poly island. Firstly I searched some references in a cartoon style and I did a quick sketch.

I would like to do a colorful and handpainted texture . For handpainted texture, which software you usually used ?
Now I'm working on the modelisation (3DSMAX). Little blue planes will be painted with transparence for doing some grass. ALso how can I do for animation ? For example if I would like to animate the sea, grass in wind or  smoke ^^ ? Don't hesitate to give some feedbacks or advices ^^
Thanks a lot

Hey !
Now I'm doing hand painted textures with  3DCoat

Looks good. The scale of the windows is a little bit off I think. They look quite stylized and believable in the concept you made but on the model you've scaled them down even smaller and they look a bit silly, so I'd make them a bit bigger. Also, you're probably going to do this, but the water could really do with some texture work where the island and rocks are meeting it. The gradient function in 3D coat can give you some really good bases to start from.

Thanks for your feedback I'm here now. I resized the windows and try something for water (I added a smooth gradient from photoshop, it's the same tool in 3DCoat ? I don't know this function).
