I don't have a specific example of what the final scene should look like. I’m creating a modular Japanese school environment in a stylized, minimalist anime style. The design is intentionally kept versatile, based on my own concept and preferences, and once I’m done with the wall, I’ll work on creating the fountain in the…
Hello guys. I have something on my mind and it's been bothering me all night. I understand that 3D utilizes the principles of rhythm, form and lighting in much the same way graphite drawings or painting do. It would make sense to say that anything gained from traditional mediums can be applied to 3D. The only difference…
Hi. As you can tell from the thread title, I'll be doing an Arcade skin for Fiora. I'm pulling some inspiration from Hyper Light Drifter as a recent game that plays in the retro-gaming nostalgia space, and one that I feel fits Fiora's style of gameplay particularly well. Here's my base paintover for what my initial idea…

First, forgive me for the sloppy brushwork! 1 - Lateral planes of the cheeks and temples Start with the big planes. They're important to give depth to the face and help to figure out the rest of the face. I didn't go as hard on the right side as I did with the left because I knew what I'd do with the light in the end, but…
Thanks for all the comments. :) frmdbl: I agree. Lighting, especially the ceiling was something that always kinda bothered me, but never got to nail the look I wanted. My pc also isn't really helping because I running well bellow min UE4 specs on CPU so bakes are painfully slow. I wanted to experiment with IES profiles,…
