Hey all. This thread is a new version of my previous thread since this is a new project aim now. The new aim is below. Ok. This project has changed a bit now since last time i posted. The original aim is now not complex or needed enough for it to be considered useful for a thesis. However, the new aim still uses a mech…
After watching the film Moon, (Great movie btw, definitely check it out if you haven't done so already!) I have decided to take it upon myself to create a mini-environment from the film as a strong portfolio piece. I plan on using the UDK engine to implement the scene. I've wanted to make a sci-fi environment for awhile…
NOTE: THIS WORK IS IN DIRE NEED OF A MAJOR REVAMP THAT MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN! The intent is a more subtle, emotional take on a less explored character's backstory. In this, Akali. To write a story about her I of course first sought to draw upon her core character traits, but then came to realize there were none, which my…
I started animating back in 2013 using a program that only used FK. I got my hands on Maya later that year (or the year after) and only animated casually. As of late, I've animated with the aim to improve. While I don't expect to be an expert any time soon, I do hope to be as good as I can possibly be. Many of the…
It's been awhile since I've done any game art in my freetime so I'm starting up a new project I've had on my mind for a long time. I've been needing to get a better understanding of the PBR workflow and really push myself as an environment artist so this seemed perfect. I feel like I've fallen behind on my sci fi…
So applying New-Age Censorship vs. Old-Age Censorship in my free-time is OK? It's funny on how people who ask 'Live and let live' for their own life are the very first ones to make condescending remarks on other peoples 'Likes' or what they do in their free time. Essentially, New-Age Bigotry on what is a 'unsullied'…
Cool! Ok then, So first up, I'd suggest doing some environments. The best way to get a job doing what you want is to just start doing what you want to do. and Do it well :) Find a piece of concept art and model/texture a small scene. Be careful on the scope, make it do-able in a short time so you stay motivated and…
many artistic traditions and disciplines to consider as well... I wouldn't dismiss any particular artist as "lacking" ( anatomy Nazi? ) because their strategies and language might just concentrate on a different approach. ( wouldn't assume they haven't spent less time agonizing and pouring over the human form and with any…
Hey, I have nothing against doing tracing or photo manipulation for illustartion work. I'm not some kind of nazi that can't see the benefits of doing short cuts when all that counts is the money you will get for the finished image. I think being an artist is a lot like being a child molester. You don't have to make art…
Well its been a while. I always knew I would take my time to move my computer ect after being settled at my new job. I received my computer 5 months after moving. For 3 week it seemed fine and then my graphics card took a fit. I had buy a new one, which I wasn't too bummed out about. At least it was a less complicated fix…
