If you have the money, maybe invest in Gnomon? I'm currently watching this series as a part of my personal 30 day anatomy challenge. (no thread, sorry) http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/store/product/999/Anatomy-Workshop%3A-Volume-One Note that there are five volumes. Charles is really good at explaining things and I have…
Pardon the dump, but I've been gone awhile. University has distracted me, but I'm back and ready to kick more ass around these parts of the internet. :) I know more about modeling now too, so that's cool. Rather quick sculpt of a ratzilla thing. I like him. One of my first digital sculpts. Random speedpaint from my head.…
Best of luck to all those affected. This industry is project based. The media likes to pretend it's not, but it is. Sometimes you're kept on for the next project, sometimes you're let go. If it's badly managed, the project fails and everyone goes. It sounds like two of the studios mentioned had finished major projects in…
Hi all, few new bits and pieces here. This is based on a life drawing session we had here at work as part of our ongoing art training. We had some kind people come in from the 99th Garrison, a local Star Wars costuming organisation, to pose for us for a few hours - I decided to draw the Tusken Raider - results below:…
Hey I will take and consider any and all advice that comes my way. I appreciate all of it. Now something I was thinking of doing for any future job expo was having both the traditional style portfolio and the digital portfolio as a just in case you know. Because already as it is I Print my 3D renders onto the nice paper…
What I've found equally perplexing is when you show a digital painting to someone and they say "that's wonderful, you should paint it." :icon15: As if I hadn't just. But such is life; some people still think Photoshop is just for cropping pictures, I suppose. The topic reminds me of a life drawing teacher I once had. She…
I was going to ask, isnt that how we all do it? I mean, when doing the refine line work for our arts, we usually make few strokes and undo them until we are happy with one. (using Elbow) (artists at Digital Tutors uses this method as well). The method I do it is, keep the transfer option on with pen pressure and opacity to…

The local Digipen (Singapore) has a solid 4-year animation program that tell me is the same course structure they use over in the US. This is the info you're looking for: https://www.digipen.edu/academics/degree-programs/digital-art-and-animation/ I got to tour their campus, see the first term student work, and it seemed…
Get romantically involved with people who love you for what you are, not for what you can provide them with. With that out of the way, how can you be depressed with being in a field that is awesomeness itself? The incredible hardware and software available (read here toys for boys, and even free of charge in many cases),…
