The best contests are the ones with a relatively vague directive, so people can have their own interpretation. So no one is typically doing the same thing unless their idea is the first generic obvious thing that comes to mind. Artstation has the concept phase for their challenges, which they encourage people to pull from…
This is a cool concept and there's some nice hard surface work so far, but I do agree that the suit is the weakest element at this point. I get the feeling there's a body in the suit looking at the concept, but the sculpt feels empty and undefined. Do you have a proxy mesh for the underlying anatomy? I would take super…
thx adam. no the concept is not mine. credit goes to biometal79 (from deviantart). followed the concept as close as possible, with a few tweaks just because certain things needed a bit more pizazz and functionality. but yeah, ive heard the same crits of the barrel. ill see if i can do anything else to change it, as in the…
looks great, you where pretty faithful the concept, nice going. aside from what bobo mentioned I think you need to work on the fur sticking out of the boots. A single plane doesn't seem to be very convincing from different angles. A few more planes and the fur will look nice a fluffy like the concept. The snout looks a bit…
Stupid little doodle thing trying out my style on concept art and just comin up with concepts. Majorly disappointed that I messed up perspective a few times, wasn't thinking. results? Style doesnt really work for full on environment concepts (works better for individual prop artwork, scale kills all detailing) and I really…
so this gets a political discussion too... copycatting is very common in game art (i've seen lots of shots of people having a "map of a body" and famous modelshots around it with arrows pointing on the specific area , which leads to a new concept) (i remember the case when someone used an arm from davekings concept but not…
Bumping this as we are still looking for a concept artist who will be working with Yves Allaire (evillair) to create player, weapon and environment drafts. We are also seeking another environmental artist to pretty our maps up. The basic map, concept, texture set and map models will be supplied. If you want to help out or…
Pretty cool. I agree that there should be more forearm and less blade to match concept art. The concept looks about half and half. Your's looks like 1/3 and 2/3's (maybe that's exagerated a little) I think you need to pull out his shins too. They curve in way too much, and with pads on top of em they'd need to be out even…
Good stuff! Love all the little touches. The end result does look really great! Some small things, about the concept vs the final: The concept has harsher lighting, with purpler purples and oranger oranges, and I also feel like the concept is quirkier, and has more imperfections, than the final model. I feel like…
Ive worked in a small indie studio with a good 3d concept designer and Id say you are 60% of the way there with these models. Paint over them and finish the concepts off and then you will stand a better chance of being recognised for how useful you are. Even if you already know how good you can be companies will require…
