@pior @carvuliero Thank you both for your concerns. It's been well since high school that i've used graphic tablets (not the screen type) and god knows how hard I tried to adjust myself using one but the act of not drawing directly on screen, drawing something on a surface and having to look at another one to see the live…
How long have you been using a tablet? Also, what size is it? You get used to it. After using them for a few years it feels very natural to me. You just have to get over the odd coordination from drawing on one surface while looking at the other. Maybe try using your tablet as your mouse for a while...so whenever your…
Mine was very similar to JordanN. As a kid I used to draw all the time, and I mean ALL the time. Cliche I know, but true. Then, I went to high school, and the drawing fell by the wayside as new interests took root but it was still there, at the back of my mind. I just never acted on it or practiced. Then came University…
DeviantArt is actually great for hosting pictures, not only do you get a site with people to give more feedback, you can right click a picture, choose Open in New Tab, or window or w/e and copy paste that pages URL here as a picture. DeviantArt doesn't force links on your embedded pictures, or resize your art unless you…
Excellent work. I don't get why you put your best work in the middle of the reel though. I'd start with the octosapien (textured, highest quality and most fleshed out character) followed by the bird (which I think is the 'weakest' of the three) and finish with the bat. I'd also take out the ape drawings at the end. Your 2D…
cool improvement from day 1 to 2 :) seems like things might be getting a little too smoothed out, volumes getting lost and all that. Keeping your div lvl as low as possible at all times can be handy, helps to focus on the larger structural masses first (though things are looking bettah in the second head already) as far as…
The PS2 has always been a dog when it comes to Z-sorting alpha planes. I remember a coder explaining it to me one time. Basically it could be done, but required your engine to do some serious calculation, and that was a trade off - use the cycles to figure out the Z-depth of the alpha planes, or use it for something else…
Drew up a quick concept to get me started. Going to be a lot of little pieces going on and that will be a nice challenge with only having the diffuse, ao, and a alpha map. I will change things when I need to but I'm content with this. The smaller braces/pieces are fully drawn in for the sake of getting the concept…
Deep breath.....relax. you are currently in the Zbrush beginner zone. All will eventually reveal itself..... I'm not sure how you keep pressing T by accident whilst working. But anyway, to change hotkeys go to preferences /config/enable customise. Now hold ctrl+alt and a little message will pop up in the top left of the…
hi richard! first, page (talking about the images) is a bit a horror to go through. go for a simple solution with the images; ordered in a table so that one can get a quick overview of your work - no one (who can give you work) wants to explore your quality/talent of/for your work in a "go through all the links" way. show…
