Re: Does using a tablet improve drawing skills?
It's probably practice and you're sharpening your artistic eye. The more familiar I get with a object in 2D or 3D it helps me to draw it in the other. So its not so much a tablet but a familiarity and a way of thinking that helps me improve. Of course practice with any kind of hand eye coordination helps out quite a bit. -
Re: Sketchbook: BlazefuryX
* Hey everyone, welcome to Day 52 of my 180-Day topology challenge! Today, I had some fun modeling a Smart Collection Perfume bottle that I found in my mom’s room.

Smoothing Groups -Soft or Hard Normals On Alpha Cards used for Tree Canopies in game

Re: I need some advice for 3D

Also I find I learn a lot from watching timelapses in youtube of artists doing their work. Still the best is practice. -

Re: Zelenkov
Alright, it was suggested to me to do something that was not so complex, and to pick a medieval helm to give me some more practice before I move on to one of the pieces above. And so I found something. Gimli's Helm from Lord Of The Rings. Don't judge :) It is by far most interesting helm with lots of detail and I think… -
Re: Left 4 dead 1/2 off sale this weekend!
Polycount group, eh? Alrighty. I could use a potentially friendly bunch to practice versus with once my connection's feeling better. I hopped online briefly last night, and people are apparently really serious about the whole multiplayer thing! They didn't like me. But since there's no way of practicing versus offline,… -
