"Just do it!" - I think everyone knows by now. When pushing myself to try new things, if I am not in the mood to start a whole new project or plan on just getting my feet wet before a head first dive into the deep end, I will take an existing WIP asset or one I previously completed and step back as far as needed along the…
Love the creatures! One tiny crit I have is the UE4 render's might want to use a bit more love in the materials and perhaps the roughness channel. It could just be a matter of preference/style since it looks like you have a nice diffuse texture thing going, though I couldn't help but notice all of the UE4 renders have a…
PART THE FIRST: Concept and design. I'll keep this post short for now, but thought I should include the concepts I've been working off of. Top left corner is the costume design from Leon Bakst, and the main inspiration for my pose/character design. There were some things I decided to change from the original design, not…
Jason: Much <3 for my first traditional art patron :) Makkon: Crazy?! I was crazy once... Sparkwire: Haha, thanks man. I played with some colorful backgrounds for the first pass renders, be happy to throw together a new one... something like this? Next update :) Daphz: And so you shall! My mission is to paint something…
"That's why items like that remain available, but minimized." I totally agree with that point and core principle (that's a large part of what I focused on in my mockups), but that's not the issue here - the problem is that in this specific case, minimization (done by shifting these items to the right) impacts the core…
Thank you very much for the kinds words, chaps! I'm really excited to show you her final form when she comes together. Sadly....it's starting to not look so good for finishing her on time for the Artstation Challenge as I'm trying to complete her around a full-time work schedule. BUT FEAR NOT! I shall forge onward until…
wow that was a pretty awesome showing. NFS looks ballin, love the burnout series and it loooks like its taking a major que from that. Dead space 2 looks amazing, probably my most anticipated game. wast too much of a fan of the sports/sims/active stuff, pretty boring and nothing mindblowing really. but thats my own personal…
It's not bad, but for a straight portfolio site I really prefer something like sinistergfx website. It's just here is my work, have fun checking it out, and oh yeah here's a resume, etc. You have a lot of clutter up at the top that I'd streamline. I would kick it straight to the portfolio since that's why people are there.…
Yeah a couple of those things were temp. But I forgot to slice the sign up a bit. So just some quick updates before I go to bed. I tweaked the roof a bit to give it some more sag, increased the size of the stone area, tweaked the mastiff ass to give it some character. Put some stone trim around. I have a temp sign holder…
Well Kring said it's a wash in terms of finding out what fans like and don't like. Claire romance not so much, Hiro in ancient Japan not so much, Peter with amnesia, not so much. So the second 1/2 of season 2 was going to be refocused and be paced a bit quicker. He said that those 3 stories could have each been told over…
