Re: Need advice on low-poly hand painted model (WoW inspired)
Tons better. Get comfortable getting dark, because it provides contrast to what is in the light. Think of it as "It's not obvious until you make it REALLY obvious." Now get real reference of actual male human bodies (preferrably figure drawing models) and proportionally place where your muscle groups should be. What would… -
Re: I am giving myself a year to build a 2D portfolio. Any advice?
I do need to brush up my short pose drawings. I wonder if Youtube channels are good enough for gesture drawings. (yes, there are nude pose videos on Youtube, all legit.) BTW, one major reason why I stepped back from 3D for now is that I have no clue how to teach myself beyond basic, I mean very basic modeling. This Fall I… -
Re: THRONE ROOM - Drka-Drka Team - Deus Praetorium
@Row' Thanks mate) Hi guys) Really need your help here. I'm new to UE4 and I have some troubles with dynamic light and shadows. The problem is - shadow distance and quality.

Re: Character Design Critique Request: Bird Mech
There are elements from each of these drawings that in my opinion would be worth exploring some more. The feet and the shoulder/head of the digital drawing strike me as interesting and have potential. The plated wings in the pencil sketch could be interesting, but could go through a few more iterations to work out both the… -
Re: 40% of World of Warcraft Players Adddicted?
[ QUOTE ] I stick by simple logic. If they weren't addicted to WoW, it'd be something else. T.V., drugs, gambling, what have you. People with addictive personalities get addicted. What a surprise. [/ QUOTE ] I was about to say the same thing but then I thought about my friends... I have one that you could say had an… -
Re: Interchangeable Equipment
Generally speaking you would NOT want to be using unique textures for each piece of gear on a single character unless it's all going to be put together into a larger, single texture later. You're going to want to have a way to end up with as few textures as possible whether it be through BLITing or something comparable.… -
Re: Maybe it's just me...
[ QUOTE ] how about drawing or building something symmetrical and thinking that you just have to do 1/2 since you can mirror it after? [/ QUOTE ] When I was painting Warmachine figures I did something like that. I would apply a few coats and paint some details thinking I could mirror it to another piece. The brush size up… -
Re: Studying Architecture?

I'm looking at getting these two books: Architectural Drawing: A Visual Compendium of Types and Methods (3rd edition) - Rendow Yee - [ame=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0471793663/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=A6FM3138AIY0R]amazon link[/ame] Materials, Structures, and Standards: All the… -
Re: Sonic the Hedgehog
it scares the shit out of me, his face looks like a kuma (japanese bear), and he is so hairy - its just scary. The eyes look very wrong and almost orthogonal aligned whereas they should be more angled in a natural way like it does in the concept drawing. The hands are also very scary, like the ones of a hair old strong man… -
Re: Updated my website
Your car models are looking fantastic. Geometry for the props could be optimized a little more, but overall quite solid. I must respectfully disagree with EggE about your drawings. I think you SHOULD have them in there because it displays your ability to capture form in more than 1 medium. Yes they're good, no they're not…
