Hello polycount! This is my first time posting here, and I am excited to finally be joining the community. This is the first piece of art I have worked on in a few months, and I look forward to hearing what you all think. I chose the following Axe design from: http://www.warhammeronline.com/conceptart/index.php My aim for…
Hi, A while ago I worked on a scene based on this concept by Rowena Wang > http://dethling.deviantart.com/art/alchemist-room-399390483 But to my shame I have to admit I never finished it (like many of my projects :( ). So I decided to finish it! This is the old blockout of the scene: You can also find some old assets at my…
As a contrarian opinion, one role I had was as a Worldbuilder, a Level Artist. This meant arranging other artists’ assets into new terrains, creating locales and points of interest, plus overall lighting and mood. https://ericchadwick.com/img/mmo_worldbuilding.html This is pretty similar to using asset packs, and I enjoyed…
Hey guys, thanks for all comments and sorry for the late reply. sltrOlsson: Thanks! I'm using custom lighting to remove differences in shading between the terrain and meshes that intersect with it. If I were to blend in only the grass texture I would still end up with many seams. I will add some comparisons later on.…
No one can really help you refine your critical comparison skills like practice can, it just takes time. There isn't some tricky trick or magic formula that will make it all snap into place. I can point things out that don't fit right but then you're just relying on the skills that I've developed and not fostering your…
I've done a bit more work on my scene so thought I'd post more WIP pictures. Here's what I have changed since my last post: * Made oil spill decals for the floor. * Modelled some props that can be seen at the side of the APC: a floor sheet, 3 different styles of paint can and a step-ladder. The step ladder isn't textured…
Thanks to all of you The slideshow now works in the Firefox and Opera browsers. Does anyone else find my site loading slow? I think I need a new host, any recommends? I appreciate your comments and I take them on board: they are quite interesting and I will certainly tweak to make this better. Kyraal: It's based strongly…
Hey Chelsea, Your goal seems clear other than type of work. Are you looking for an in house studio job or freelance/contract work? The difference being: If you are looking for in house, focusing on scenes is ideal because you will most likely end up composing environments in levels. If you are looking for contract work,…
Hey guys, just now I did a file cleanup via the menu above and it printed lots of failed save/ failed load on the log window, I thought it didn't save the file (cus it said failed to save...) close painter and reopen that file, now painter won't even open it anymore..and instead it printed this on the log window..…
Welcome to the Monthly Handpaint Art Jam ! Noobs and Character Artists can have their challenge, so do we! However we've decide on keeping it simple and friendly, and instead of making it a challenge, we're making it an Art Jam. A place where Handpainter can exchange technique, critique and tricks. We welcome any cartoon…
