Devour [Final Draft] A creeping miasma of chilled despair engulfed the darkened shacks at the ends of Mudtown City Limits. Rows of jagged rooftops were illuminated by the moon’s light, brightening the tiny city on the eastern shores more than the city lights. Nothing exciting happened in Mudtown aside from the occasional…

I was never really sure if Skin used it or not and never looked into it, thanks for the links! I make use of the "assume skin pose" while animating just to get pieces back to a clear starting place. It also seemed to help keep the biped clavicles in place, where before I started doing that they would apply a universal…

Noel: "Spain..." Julian: "Where the donkeys are rigid"…
A lot of mixed views on here. On a plus side since starting this thread I managed to get some sweet lighting sorted on my current proj :D . To sum up my views at the moment. Uni was a waste of time as relates to what it cost me. I made friends and got a very independent work ethic however that was more due to what they…
To be honest I am not sure I see lots of changing with AI introduction. The field of concept art and illustrations , book covers etc have become financially unsound for decades already, since digital age emerging . It's what I tried to do after art school and quickly figured out I will die of hunger if would be persistent…

It was a very good learning experience overall, and my future work will be better for it. based on art by…
