Re: Colt's stuff
The thing w/ modeling creatures, is that well... there easy. sculpting a creature dosnt come with rules like suclpting a human or (somthing I find difficult) an apealing female human. What Im saying is that you can break as many rules in anatomy and porportions as you want and then call the sculpt a creature. I suggest… -
Topology feedback and tips
Hello everyone! I'm currently working on a creature for a university project and it's my first time designing creatures, as well as the third time altogether retopologizing. I wanted to ask for your tips and tricks when it comes to switching from areas where more polygons are needed to areas with sparser topology. Here is… -
Re: Sketchbook: EmAr
I really dig the creatures - those zbrush scuplts and concepts. They've got a really believable feel to them. They're a little odd, but creatures ARE odd. We're digging up fossils all the time, or discovering things in the ocean that are incredibly interesting, shapes, sizes, functionalities. And you're getting a good feel… -
Re: "Freelance Character Artist". How do i become one?
It matters a lot actually. It's less about having a realistic character and more about knowing your anatomy inside and out. Doesn't matter if you are sculpting non human creatures or monsters. Those still have to be grounded in solid anatomical knowledge and its easy to tell when someone doesn't have that, trust me. The… -
Re: How do we grow as artists?
rendering a half done model is a waste of time. Its still a blank grey work in progress, trying to hide that with lighting and GI is a huge waste of time and ties up your PC while you could be doing actual work towards having a finished model. It's also irrelevant to a game art portfolio. It gives the illusion of taking… -
Re: Sculpting clothes just doesn't appeal to me...?
I agree that if you want to be a character artist, learn to do the things you don't like as well as the things you do like. You could try to be a creature only character artist, but you still have to learn fundamental principles like anatomy and proportion for regular humans to still be a solid creature artist. Even then,… -
Re: Seeing things...
Yes, I experience this too. The worst time was when I was about 12 years old and I was lying in my bed looking at the wall(the room was dark). I saw the shape of a panther-like creature on the wall looking at another creature as if they were having a conversation. The next thing that happened was that the shape of the… -
Bunnies, Bunnies Everywhere
Decided to start a work in progress thread. Be warned, first page is gonna be .gif heavy. Working on an indie game. It's 3rd person exploration / hunting game that takes place inside a sphere world. So you are able to look up and see the other side of the world and run around the entire thing. It's currently playable on… -

Re: Sketchbook: AsherOS
I'm loving the general design of the creature. One advice I could say is its form needs to be clearer. I havent used sculptris yet, but if you can put it in siloutte mode, do it and then rotate the creature around. See if you can identify the sections of the creature just from the siloutte and make adjustments. From what I…
