I guess I'm one - I was a contract environment artist that wanted to go full time but there weren't any full time environment positions at my current studio so I became a character artist. I've also done UI art but aside from maps and icons I hate designing user interfaces. As far as the "Program or be programmed" quote…
@ Gratz on your first reply that room that I concepted is meant to bland the idea of the level is that there isnt much going on with music to build suspense. @ I am definitely staying away from the white wall monotony, there will however be one room that is white. But thanks for the support Here is a top down view of what…
I think you need to go even further than working on proportions in 3d, go back to paper/the drawing board, your actual model is fitting what you've drawn fairly well so you have the modeling skills you need but the concept in the first place is really lacking, if you spend a bunch of time messing around in 3d without a…
Moving on to the final piece now, but now I'm struggling to find a good composition that shows off both the hermit crab and the anchor which are on opposite sides. He could have the anchor resting over his shoulder but I feel that the big sketch with him dragging the anchor is more dynamic, but consequently you can hardly…
You'll need all three axis if you want to drag an alpha on that is meant to affect more than one direction (as most are). That is where Orb's method will come in handy vs just wrapping standard brush strokes. Otherwise you'll have to draw down the alpah's you want first in the center of the mesh, offset the document to…
Connect edges via middle point is alt+c (loop slice). You can toggle between full loop or selected edges in the tool properties. Or there's edge slice, where you can draw out the path on the mesh. Dunno the shortcut for that off by heart. Extend is z, click and drag to extend selected edges. The tools you want are all…
@jStins thanks for a reply! I actually did create a hole in the roof but the shadow was completely off, so I decided to go out of the realism here and made just a spotlight on top of the roof with a cold light temperature. It might be too "perfect" that moon is shining in the center of the attic, but I think that a lil bit…
I've seen extruding fur done on black and white, not done as best as it could but it seems to look okay. They just made faces where they would like the fur to extrude (I'm not sure if their attached to the original mesh or not but it doesn't really matter) and gave it a partially transparent texture. seems to work quite…
tell us, where above is there mention of the employment of abusive reverse psychology toward a thinking feeling individual pertaining to the issue of soliciting carnal knowledge? wait, the name beside the comments of that nature is oxynary. as for the prudish definition, I drew my comparative analogy from the point of view…
7 years ago I was 16 years old, and really into video games and drawing. I had done a little work with Paint shop Pro but that was the extent of my computer art stuff. I had sketchbooks upon sketchbooks filled, and I drew all over the sides of my papers in schools, and not paying attention in class. I had the dream like a…
