Re: Successful 3D artist without drawing skill?
Get a small moleskine pocket sketchbook and draw in those spare moments. Yes, I need to practice what I preach :P I've slacked off on drawing since I got into the game industry but enough of my anatomy knowledge stuck around that I was able to jump from environment art to character art when I needed to. The style I've been… -
Re: Lol Fail
hahah dont worry about it man, everyone has to start somewhere right!? you said you can draw better with a pencil, maybe try scanning in some line drawings and inking them in photoshop until you get a tablet, atleast then you have a guide to go with the mouse action. really what it comes down to is practice practice man,… -
Re: LilyNion's Luminé
WOEH I can finally update haha. I guess it's art related since I've drawn it all? This is the language Cécilion. It's an old and rather rare language, practiced by the followers of Gaia. Because of how complicated this language is (the amount of strokes etc), only a few can practice this. And this is the world map of… -
Re: [WIP] Drop Ship
holy shit. My machine would cry just displaying or rendering this engine. I can't imagine a whole dropship with that level of detail in all areas. I guess you aiming only for highpoly practice and no low poly, bakes? If not I'm interested waht texture budgets you are aiming for. I'm afffraid much of detail will be lost due… -
Re: Zach Vance - Art Showcase (C&C Welcomed!)
A Skywalker speed paint from last night, reference taken from The Last Jedi trailer. I spent about an hour on it, which is more time than I would have liked to to get it to this point, but practice is practice. I think I'd like to refine it a little more, same with the above Blade Runner portrait, when I can spare the… -
Re: Anatomy in Portfolio Necessary?
Personally I like to find characters that I love to work on that also have anatomy involved in them. That way I can work on a character that is a bit more interesting to me than just a random anatomy study while also practicing anatomy knowledge. Even just exposed arms or hands on a character gives you another opportunity… -
Re: The Hobbit
Like this? There was a bit of a kerfuffle with the practical effects guys over both the Hobbit movies because both Azog and Bolg were originally guys in costumes - the same guy in a costume in fact, who were then replaced with CG for reasons which aren't particularly clear… -
Re: Bacons 2d Journey
If you're looking for other value practice options, my art professor once suggested that I try doing jigsaw puzzles without a guide. It really helped me see the subtle changes in color. Also, if you really want a challenge, you should try puzzles that force you to rely solely on seeing value, such as a white cat on a white… -
Re: Monthly Environment Art Challenge - July & August 2017 (49)
@Bletzkarn This is the perfect opportunity to jump in! :) You should practice on one of these props. They're small and relatively simple enough as a good practice piece. Especially that cute little robot. All he's really made of is a bunch of cylinders. You should give it a shot, I think you could really surprise yourself.… -
Re: Hobbyist Game Maker
Lol... something about this model is just great in it's own way. There's nothing wrong with the design, just that you need a lot of practice working with polygons and painting textures. Reading tutorials will definitely help you a lot faster than walking blind; a lot of users around this site have tutorials attached to…
