if im a capable designer ( im not ) i will work from my concept. If im not a capable designer\concept artist, id rather work from someone who actually is good at that, cause you can make something super cleanly modeled etc, but if it has ass-y design then it will look like ass nontheless :(
Hi everyone!, I was wondering what your opinion is on this topic - The question is if you prefer to work with your own design or use a Concept Art. On one side working of a Concept Art just feels like copying and on the other side if you work with your own design you never know how it is gonna turn out maybe its just gonna…
You can also learn what makes a good design by modeling other people's designs. Good concept artists will think of and add details I just might miss. I personally do a bit of both, doing your own design tends to take a lot longer and takes more brain power. I generally notice my weaknesses tend to be a little more…
The design itself have two totally different roles. One is making an actual design solutions and another is producing impressive concept art sketches to satisfy publisher . In my brief experience as a sketcher around 20 years ago the actual design had been prerogative of some executive people having experience in sales…
If you want to model for the industry 100% do not design it yourself. You're highlighting the wrong skillset. By using another persons design you're doing two-fold: showing that you can nail a brief/concept and translate it with fidelity to 3D, and second that you can collaborate and address notes, which is major if…
If you're just starting out, I'd say 100% go off someone else's design. If you're still learning how to make 3D, also creating your own design is just going to slow you down. Also, you will learn a lot from making other people's designs 3D. I've had hiring personnel tell me it was a good thing I was transferring other…
Well, as I have spent just the last couple of weeks doing my own design, here some thoughts from me: - often I was more thinking about how it should work, how it should look, how to make it interesting, than actually modelling - I started to draw again - I learned a lot of new things mainly rigging and animating to see if…
What?? I would argue exactly the opposite. If you arnt good in designing, DO it. That's the only way to get better at it. Unless you don't enjoy it at all of course. But being bad at it at the beginning is normal. That shouldn't stop you.
