Thanks @pior Yeah i am really enjoying it a lot, even though I've never been big on cartoony styles, I am enjoying how it puts all the focus simply on the art and then technical matters are pretty straightforward it is just so nice that iterating on a characters design is so quick and easy there is little reluctance to do…
Working on design for a minotaur character. This is also part of ongoing general art design work. I want to try and get character iteration time down by like 50% so I need to look at some ways to get away from realism. The struggle is is that realism is pretty much the only style I ever enjoyed. The minotaur will be a boss…
the next illustration will be a bunch of character concepts. a handful of characters from each region of the game. To begin I've done line work for the hero characters, the Amazons. Although this is being made more for marketing art, I am trying to make this actually be useful for concepts in the future once its time to…
Redid Gilgamesh model. The original one was very abstract design, I think I prefer to stick a little closer to realism, at least for this character as he has a pretty human story. Perhaps some monsters or more comic characters could be more abstract in design though. The design I followed pretty close from a reference that…
Okay got first building in the game. I have some more detail trims to put on it but for now I am going to skip past those final touches and try to get the main chunks of each major building ready. I have a feeling workflow will get a lot more streamlined so I'll save those more time consuming parts for once I get the…
@pxgeek I have not used mixer but using megascans in general would probably take care of a large portion of my environment texturing needs. The only issue is that it kind locks me into a realistic style which I'm not 100% sure it best approach yet. I mean, I know for sure that in terms of shape language and general layout…
Was looking at some ways I might improve the character model and I started looking at metahumans, and then spent some hours figuring out a workflow how I can get the parts I want from it to improve realism, but get rid of the extraneous resources and complexity... what a rabbit hole. I started to think, "this is the…
A bit of progress in level blockout, but much was experimentation and figuring out what not to do. That's not progress anybody wants to look at but I think it's good to mention and note a few lessons learned. Fighting on several fronts and it feels like too much. Difficult to figure out where to focus. So what is the…
@Bolovorix thanks! @Fabi_G , thanks! I hadn't considered player placed traps, but I have sketched out some ideas for environmental traps. I was thinking that some enemies might not be possible to defeat directly with your firepower, but have to be lured. Regarding visual design, I took a look at Ashen and thats definitely…
