That's the way!! Your trad sketches are very nice, some good line weights and sensitive shading. That splash image is just right - it's indicative of your style, and adds colour and drama for a good 'first impression'.
other than the GW site your looking at old White dwarf's and the artwork books that GW throws out at odd intervals, i believe the Jes Goodwin book had some Tau sketches
Thanks for everyone at Polycount for the crits and help on this peice. Here are the final renders for my portfoilo. This was a fun sketch that turned into a polypainting/rendering test, but I'm ready to move onto other things. Cheers everyone.
I fuckin NEED this! Glad to see zspheres totally revamped, I sure as hell couldn't use it to make something meaningful, but this looks like it'd speed up everyone's sketch workflow no end.
Sooooo finally some post from my side. Did some sketching for the shape. Gonna go for the raptor one . Jumped into max and started blocking in the shapes. Let`s see how it develops
Started this character while sketching on a road trip back home. I always draw big robots with a cute animal inside so I thought I would develop it more in Zbrush :D
Yes I agree on that, it does get warm afetr a short time, I only use it for transfering small sketches onto a larger surface...for the price of a projector, you can get a nice monitor.
I think we should create a thread for that,- something like post your "what would you create as a CS4 panel...." with lots of GUI sketches and ideas about custom panels- and sharing resources.
I've been doing a lot of rendering lately because of reasons. I'm usually either on polycount or sketching up ideas...or sometimes I go talk to people about my crazy ideas, hehe.
When trying to understand bridgman you have to realise that his drawings are more sketches to explain a theory than polished demonstration drawings. But this might help :). http://deadoftheday.blogspot.com/2009/07/perspiration-anatomy.html
