Re: Recent Artwork and Portfolio Critique
Hi Nikki! I really like the little bee & flower piece, and the little mask guy! Overall, your portfolio right now leaves quite a few questions for me. What is your goal, professionally speaking? As it stands, I'm left a little bit confused about who you are and what you do, and what you WANT to do. Your work touches a lot… -
Re: The Monthly 'Noob' Character Challenge (01/14)
Tweak tweak. I've altered quite a bit but I still don't feel like it's where it needs to be yet. Toned down the bridge of the nose so it blends with the face, took the eyes in a bit (as well as altered them in general) and added some length to the legs. I feel now though that the arms are a little too pencil thin. I may… -
Re: Forgetting how to draw
This happens to almost every artist. You don't really forget, you just get rusty. Creativity is a muscle and if you haven't used it in a while it becomes exponentially harder to start until you actually do so. Every time I sit down to draw the blank page is a scary obstacle and only actually getting that pencil/pen/wacom… -
Re: PIXEL ART ( crits needed )
What Willy Wilson and I mean with 'neat and clean' pixel work, is this: Both are the same size, both are sort of the same thing. (the sketch was so messy I wasn't 100% sure what it was exactly) But there's a drastic difference in the amount of detail. Why? Because I spent more effort crafting the detail. Every pixel has a… -
Re: Help drawing girls
What the hell is 'halp pl0x'? Why not just write 'help please'. People are far more likely to 'help' you if you talk properly. Anatomy knowledge is king. I'd actually recommend not going to IDrawGirls.com because you're not gonna learn how to 'draw girls', you're just gonna learn 'how to draw girls'. What I mean by that… -
Re: Mobile Arcade Game Art: Individuality help
Hi mate. Currently you are trying to design a character like a sims character creator. That just can't work if you are going for unique. Instead you need to actually design, and put thought behind it all, avoid grandmas wallpaper syndrome. Which i define as any character that wouldn't look out of place being tiled in a… -
Re: Sources for improving
I think you are overlooking some of the most important differences between master and amateur. Yes, technique is part of it, but there is this whole other side to developing your eye for things. Whether it be color, detail, form, design, aesthetic, or any number of other things, developing your eye will help you recognize,… -
Re: Sketchbook: Der Hollander
Doing an update of an old pencil drawing, but this time she'll have a complete body. Aside from some of the life drawing sessions at school, I don't have a whole lot of practice with the female figure, so there's bound to be issues. Legs aren't pictured yet since they're in the roughing in stage, like everything except the… -
Re: Sketchbook: Eric Elwell
Thanks for the comments. Japhir: For that image, I did rough pencil shapes, then drew over with Copic Grayscale markers and black Faber-Castell pens. I do use the 2 sided chisel and brush Copics. The blacks, I have an assortment of line weights, and brush pens, which I have come to love (ehh.. mostly). Sometimes I will use… -
Re: New to polycoulnt, Hi everyone.
It's a little difficult to portray sturdy metal in ZBrush, I think you're trying to accomplish something that you'll ultimately fail at from the process you're taking to do it. I'm assuming this is what ScoobyDoofus was saying, spend more time in a regular modeling program to really define the solid shapes, because right…
