Polycount's Sketch Thread!
polycounter lvl 14
We'll start by just drawing a piece everyday, and it can be digital or traditional. Then we'll start to work in some sweet themes to challenge ourselfs! ex. robots, chicks etc.

>Also I'm not sure if this is the place to be posting this, should these go in the WIP thread instead? Please lemme know if it actually should be somewhere else.
I never know either! But I'm sure once this kicks off it'll be the 2D wip thread, actually. Wouldn't be surprised.
@Stinger88 yessss don't CS6 just magically speed up your day?
Tilt is neat but it's actually a little bit glitchy still, when tabbing in and out. Looking sharp.
@tacit math
he looks so happy
@suburbum
sketch thread! Sketch thread!
Her gloves really stand out to me btw, pretty. And face.
@Allan-p

Fleshy bio-exoskeleton suit idea made from cloned lizards and nanoscience magic.
needs leg design. And eyes. Eyes everywhere.
Brown= skin and scale plating, will probably eventually be almost grey/black.
Green= flesh. The lines are where it would crack open. The dots are probably more like pores of some sort. It'll probably bleed green too.
And the eyes would be some yellow shade.
old WIP versions

sub: The greyscale character looks very well rendered! I think it could be mistaken to be a character concept for some MMORPG.
Its funny I mostly just play around but it's so hard to make good art all the time, feel like I have to do 3-5 bad ones to get 1 good and then again and again XD

More mech. Legs are a bit rough though.

Environment sketches
The polycount hangout art I made today.
Reffed head, practice / fun.
Hi, thanks! I used photo reference for the sketches.
Photo reference used:
Sketch 1
Sketch 2
As for your own character sketch and the question about sunlight, I think you could try make the lighting more warm, at the moment the tones look very cool and wintery?
Very cool royzy
A quick picture of a girl I like
in most cases it's a matter of nothing seems to be working for the majority of a drawing. you sweat. then maybe get lucky. and it comes together right at the end and looks ok
ha ha. i honestly appreciate the sentiment
i fear the moment you record something or present finished work, it might boost you even more or destroy you
another freaking wip, I want to turn it into a 3D enviro in UDK, to train myself to do more foliage & rock stuff, and especially try to work a lot more on my shaders & materials skills !
There's actually a little waterfall at the bottom of the image, I cropped to fast, but too lazy to reopen photoshop right know, meh
stylizing something
I personally love it, and while they usually are done in a certain style the shapes and looks of them change. Sure, some might look alike every now and then, so what? He's pumping out awesome stuff at an incredible rate. Whenever I see something he's done I know immediately without checking who posted it, same with erebus, dado, suburbbum, twolisten, allan p and so on.
Azkur. always noodling away in zb. but haven't really looked at any particular designs lately
PLing. 1.5 hours !?! man. envious

Pfft, I find your awesomely imaginative designs much cooler, it's me that should me jealous.
