The following is my opinion on this matter: Do whatever you need to do to produce a awesome final visual result. If you can draw/paint well, then use your own concepts. Otherwise use someone else's concepts (but get their permission first). If you can't draw/paint well, work on those skills separately from your 3D…
In my life Drawing classes whenever I knew I was going to be tight on time I would snap a picture of the scene from my angle. This is probably a good idea to start doing in your sessions. hopefully the teacher gave you warning that you were going to be rendering this pencil drawing in full color but if not that's a little…
First peice of advice would be to go back and start again (sort of). These look to be pencil work, so am I right in assuming these are the first pass at everything? Try drawing over each of the characters with different concepts. Take the same drawing, erase the hair and then draw new styles. When it comes to designing…
3Dmotive.com proveds a focused tutorial series on creating game art assets with good theory behind it. It's hand holding tutorials, which is also good. All for a modest price. Block out the big shapes, intersect as necessary. Just make sure you get the volume IN, don't worry about perfecting the mesh. You can retopologize…
I think you may want to let it flow naturally. Just let them draw and see what they come up with. Maybe show them some comic books and see if they like that, and if so then try and throw a bit more figure-drawing type of construction into it. Something How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way is pretty simple. Or maybe if they…
I don't consider tracing art. This guy is obviously tracing (look at any of his first step drawings). Drawing from a model at least takes some skill, but it is pretty much the same thing. If you need a model to produce a decent piece of art you just aren't as good an artist as someone who can produce the same result…
I Actually just bought a 4*5 Wacom graphire tablet, and I have to say it's worth it cost. But don't expect to make some great outlines especially if you want to draw with it. Here I just advice you to draw on paper and to clean your drawing on photoshop/painter. But if you want to use it to paint it works perfectly, has a…
This is done per object. In the buttons window, go to Object (F7) and in the Draw panel under Draw Extra enable the Wire option. Let's say you want to do this for multiple objects. In the 3d window select all those objects, and make sure the one already displaying wires is the active one (usually the last selected and the…
Hello everyone! It is the first time I participate in a contest of digital drawing, because I started barely a year ago into this world, I hope to keep up. hehe Finally, they have activated my account, so I can already post my process. I carry around a month with this drawing and for me has been a challenge. Sorry for my…
Some context would help, What does the existing comic look like, what style, etc.? And how is this model meant to be used… as a maquette to aid in making drawings from? Or is this a tribute to something existing already? As in, fan art? Hard to provide feedback without knowing what the end goal is.
