Instead of the handpainted technique, I decided to use his actual face on top for added detail, seems to have done the trick quite nicely Now with Eyes... I hate eyes
day 7 not where i wanted this piece to be but its a good study for hand painting!! man i always liked handpainting but now i have such a deeper respect for it... @.@ anyways... cheers
It doesn't look anything like it to me, aside from the good handpainted textures -- the art direction has literally nothing in common with ti, aside from big things holding swords.
oooooo .... ssoooo pretty ^_^ but seriously, I love it. Gonna try and do some stylised handpainted stuff myself ... once I've got some realistic stuff in my portfolio that is =P
I cannot speak for the environments, Zotter, but the character team hand paints everything. Us monster chaps hand paint as well. I'm pretty certain the enviro is handpainted looking at the textures.
Small update with more handpaint, blacks a too dark & light too, rocks got too much contrast, need small elements like algua &cie, still lot of work ... ^^
Hmm I don't like either of the handpainted concepts but I need to do something... I haven't done anything that big before but I'll try making the tea house : x
i used my friend photorefs & lots of handpainting/cltaning etc. initially they were made for tree model, but they were too dirty to be released as texture. normals were made by crazybump :)
This one is freakingly awesome! I love the texture. Such a nice painterly feel. I'd love to see more handpainted stuff from you, since your Siege Commander also was great!
