It makes me so happy to see these, i'd always wondered why the artists who worked on this never shared their work, when this is hands down some of the best stylized environment art i've seen in a while. It's unique, it's got it's own style and vibe and it's really well executed. I've also always wondered how you guys…
Research-research-research. Take as much as you can from real-life environments. Find a building you want to remake or be inspired by. When was it made? What is the architectural style? What is is known for? How is it decorated? What part of the hospital are you making? How to people get around in it? Etc...What happened…
Wow thank you everyone for those kind words, very inspiring! I'm going to rethink at my strategy and at my learning program, I'm using the student edition of 3Ds Max. I already own adobe Cs6 Master (buyed when i was in graphic design school), Substance and Zbrush. Some people has contacted me in private to ask me more…
Hello all, this is an update on the sculpt. I've been PolyCount forums for a month now but haven't had the time to post and I realise you guys are pretty strict at critcising art and such. But it's for the better ofc. =] Now, this is the sculpt so far. If you notice it says "Inspired" that means I was going for something…
I think it's a factor of age as well as inspiration. where you find inspiration helps. I used to do a massive amount of creative work, 3d Models, Illustration, even writing in my 20's and early 30's. But now I find it difficult to do more than sketch, and then not that often. Doing things differently, such as different…
jouste: thx man, appreciate that. I usually do the thumbnails pretty fast, depending on what kind of thumbs Im doing, detailed or just loose shapes. I do tend to spend at least an hour or so most days just working out as many ideas as I can in thumbnail. most of them just get filed away for later use. glad to have ur…
I'm sorry, but I can't agree with Rooster's sentiment. I don't think inspiration is everything. And I don't think you need to seek out specific inspiration in order to "feed" your imagination. Oh sure, if you want to make a character that looks like they come from an Incan culture, you would reserach Incan art, and…
Thanks for your replies everyone. It really helps to read your comments. I just opened a sketch thread in the pimping and previews forum to reactivate myself a bit: NuclearTes's Sketch Thread I'm also working on my Leila skin again and I'm trying to improve my technical skills. I'm glad the concept is already finished,…
Hey everyone, I'd like to document the progress of Mer-Mates, a collaborative art project that gemmasuen and I have started. The aim of Mer-Mates is to gain xp creating fun stylized designs and ultimately model up a sketchfab or marmoset viewer diorama. So I'll start off by sharing the idea Gemma sketched up for the…
Hello Polycount, As a student (well technically not since my call of duty got me enrolled for 2 years atm), I just wanted to tell you people how much of an inspiration every single one of your artwork is. My current environment isn't really art-friendly nor supportive but I gain much sense of fellowship and immense…
