Re: Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
Honesty /3/ is a bit of a joke. A lot of the people there are complete amateurs giving eachother advice and critics that are questionable at best. I'd repeat on sticking to polycount or other game art forums over /3/. Not to mention polycount probably moves faster than /3/ atleast last time I checked. Also yeah try to keep… -
Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
http://boards.4chan.org/3/thread/523760/new-wip-thread#p525232 Been reading through this, and has gotten me confused. There's a few people discussing anatomy vs form. A lot of them are samefagging, and it's genuinely got me confused. -
Re: Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
People hating on /ic/ and /3/. I feel a lot of places if you post artwork you just get a nice critique that doesn't really do anything. If you post on /ic/, people will tear it to shreds and be super honest. I'm pretty sure if you told someone on polycount that there work is garbage you would get banned or warned. But,… -

4chan fellows are no good, The majority folks are hate filled sociopaths hiding in the shadows; I wouldn't listen to a word these fellows have to say. I learned the hard way back in 2010, these dudes are mostly 15 year olds who can't do a thing and they jeer at anyone who doesn't adhere to their standards. /ic/ is even… -

Frazetta actually has horrible anatomy, and Scott Eaton would routinely point to massive flaws in his work as examples of poor construction. -
Re: Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
Vague dismissal is just as bad as vague praise. I know there's a very Spartan "bring it on!" mentality out there, but it's not universal. It's safer to say, "You need to work on X, and Y is the strongest part, keeping doing that." Not only does it lessen the odds that the artist will be discouraged, it also helps onlookers… -
Re: Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
Polycount is great at giving tough love and harsh critiques, although Polycount isn't as harsh today as it was 2 years ago. Calling someone's work on Polycount rubbish is fair game as long as it isn't a personal attack and has some constructive criticism to it. -
Re: Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
I got this book as a kid for my birthday, long ago: The artist talks about anatomy knowledge versus careful observation and practice. He thought it made no difference which approach you take. I think anatomy knowledge cant hurt. Guys like Frank Frazetta had a sound knowledge of how the figure is put together and I think… -
Re: Can anyone shed light on this discussion on /3/? Form vs anatomy.
And yet I prefer his work to others like Boris Vallejo. Perhaps Frazetta is proof that perfect anatomy isnt the answer. The power of his strokes, composition and narrative have always made for great illustrations. I cant help it, I am a real fan. -
