Seriously? I think a few people (including myself) are feeling a little more hopeful now, considering you have a folio with such high quality and claim to have no drawing skills :D
I don't do much work where anatomy matters, but yeah I can't draw, or at least I haven't tried that much, lose patience right away, but the boat seems stable in the 3D department.
Yes learning to draw to a pro level takes years, and from that perspective is super daunting. But that's not the challenge, the challenge is pushing yourself enough to get to a level where you actually enjoy the work. When you do that suddenly you'll find yourself procrastinating drawing or making instead of doing things…
Yep i can second Scott robertsons series on perspective. It's far more technical; than you will usually use, but it will give you a ridiculously good insight to how perspective works. So yes perspective is the #1 skill. Once you have that down, next would be motor skills, focus on getting nice lines. For line art drawing…
Anyone can really give me from start ti finish what to learn for drawing and for what to continue? I am lost. I have no idea where to start, what to start from 0. Sorry for taking your time.
Very true, for handpainted stuff its such a huge benefit. I was just going off the title of the thread of "successful 3d artist without drawing skil?" which I think you can be. But of course you will be far better off with 2d awesomeness :)
very true, really wish I could draw, and it would help out a lot in the idea stages. So don't use our comments as a reason not to learn, just you don't have to give up on 3D because your not a great traditional artist.
Well thats true but those can all be learned in 3d I don't think drawing benefits in any single area other than speed. And if you aren't already competent with a pencil you might aswell stick to learning while using 3d.
Everything that Prior said. Also, being able to draw AND model is a level of freedom and control that is not comparable. You are the pipeline. You can create a character start to finish, from concept to model to textures. You can have complete creative control. It's empowering and liberating. I say learn it anyway.
Jumping straight to digital is certainly not the best and most intuitive way. Paper is more accurate, more portable, and more fluid to use. Just buy a tiny sketchbook that fits in your pocket, a bunch of A4 sheets to do larger doodles and finished designs on, and a super cheap block of A3 sheets to bring to life drawing…
