THRONE ROOM King of the Pond BlackSkunk
Hey there, Polycount! For my throne I'm planning to do a little underground pond filled smooth rocks, plants, a waterfall, and small pieces of lost treasure (like old coins or jewelry). The idea is to make it look like a small creature of some sort lives down there, and has self appointed himself as "King of the Pond".… -
Sketchbook: Eric Chadwick

Re: Sketchbook: Sarccy
looks like you've got a good grasp on it so far man. I'm workin on the same thing. Try pushing your highlights and shadows more (something I have to repeat to myself constantly), and try playing with single and dual light sources. It may sound tough, but I actually find it easier to have a couple lights to manage, then I… -
Re: AI Art, Good or Bad? A (hopefully) nuanced take on the subject.
Why though? Humans, like most organics that are still here, are hardcoded to survive and replicate, it defines our aggression... but AI "life" might be completely inhuman and not have the same fears or needs. It might be content just sitting on this rock, observing the universe until its hardware loses function. -
