Re: [Riot Art Contest] - Deep Terror Thresh
Reply by SeanC · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - Character ArtI've got tons of small pencil sketches laying around that i'll eventually get uploaded and put together so i can update this image, but for now here's a sort of clue to the direction I'm going. His body is being animated by a large octopus strapped to his back and wrapped around his limbs, his lantern is an old diving… -
Re: Tool: Paint directly on your screen.
Hi Osman, I've been looking for something like this for quite a long time, so thank you. It seems to have some issues on my system. I start it, see the splash, press ctrl+F10 and the blue frame around the screen appears, but I cannot draw anything unless I start the line over the blue frame (where the cursor changes from… -
Re: Striving for perfection
Valkier, So many artist face this delima. Ricks idea is probably the best idea though. Process is much easily realized when you learn from someone else rather than working blind. My 2 cents is, in addition to learning from tuts, try steps like pior said. Having an image thought of in your head is definitely a large… -
Re: Any tips regarding Zbrush?
Be mindful of the fact that you'll need to develop both artistry and technical understanding of the tools and pipeline for character art. Developing both simultaneously can be done, but can muddy the process a bit. I suggest you focus on anatomy for awhile before diving into full characters. Studies done with pencil and… -
Re: business card design
Once again, thanks all for the advice! I sent Augie the very first rough last week and he actually loved it. I guess that emboldened me to post it here on polycount. Anyway, I don't want the man running around with a business card that others are gonna laugh at, so I'll keep revising this shiz. I'm out of town for the… -
Re: [Portfolio]Slave_zero / Environment Artist
Thanks for the comments. I agree with you, I should rework the order of the reel. Maybe starting with a pencil drawn concept isn't the very best idea, as i'm mainly aiming at an environment-position. I'll change this as soon as possible. To the Sculpts: Yeah, I know they are the weakest part, as I didn't practice in this… -
Re: The time of the indie / start ups is here?
So? This is true for any and every form of media. When everyone can afford paper and pencils, then everyone can write. And you end up with plenty of crap books for every classic novel. When musical instruments become affordable, you get a lot of crap garage bands. When video cameras dropped in price, you ended up with a… -
Re: Projection painter?
I was using zbrush+zapplink since it appeared first time, but it's a nuisance, nothing really good. To be always switching between the two apps is a pain in the ass . Adobe should make an application for 3d painting, that would be excellent. I recommend bodypaint as others, is the tool for painting i use mainly. You can… -
Re: Cintiq and Carpal Tunnel
I use a 21' cintiq here at my place. Given that it's much more of a traditional medium to use when going digital. It can still give you carpal tunnel syndrome if you are constantly at it just like with anything of repetitive motion. As I remember when taking life drawing classes and going to my college for drawing. We… -
Re: is it really all that crazy?
Isn't one of the main reason for using a mac the fact that all the visual production industries except videogames (and maybe movies ? though I'm pretty sure they work on unix OS not windows) are using macs ? I remember when I started working I spent some time in an advertising company and asked them about the whole Mac…
