  • Thank you! I finally cleaned that up. Meanwhile started 3 more ..I have a habit of taking too long to finish a piece, then I lose interest in it and just start something else. I found 8 from recently i started and abandoned, that are decent enough to not delete, but not finished. There’s also been a number of drawings I felt I “outgrew” - became better before I finished them, and it would be easier to start from scratch than fix them. Anyone else thinking that?

  • Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 6 Polypaint and base Hi, it’s time to share with you another part of the process to create this fanart piece. Polypaint As this is my first collectible fanart I didn’t have previous experience with polypaint so I tried my best and played a bit with it.I wanted to give a ghostly and eerie look to Lady Death, she is beautiful and deadly, but at the end of the day she is a woman that died and was reborn at hell as an avenging spirit, that’s why I gave her skin tone a bluish very cold tone.As you will see I gave myself some creative freedom to deviate from the traditional color scheme that this characater has in comics and illustrations.To add a bit of sensuality by painting some freckles on the face and the chest. The dark nature of this character was the perfect excuse to gave her a kind of goth make up, very dark shadows around the eyes, blue lips and fingernails. I know that the original character includes sexy red lips but I wanted this girl to have a sexy but at the same time creepy look, that’s why we can see some thin veins emanating from her eyes. The biggest chromatic change I did for this character is at the hair. Lady Death has a characteristic white weavy hair but in my fanart I decided to gave her a very saturated blue color.The reason behind this wasn’t only an aesthetic choice. I want that the face area strongly pulls the attention of the viewer so this area needed a stronger contrast. Another reason is that I want her to have a more modern look, as I mentioned before, I’m strongly attracted to women with goth/punk look. I gave myself half an hour or more to analyse the work of experienced sculptors that create collectibles and I discovered that the use of darker values on the skin is often applied to create a greater sense of volume and three-dimensionality. I found that areas with heavy ambient occlusion are the perfect places to paint with darker colors in order to increase the separation between different forms. Even though she has a bluish skin tone, I used a bit of warmer hues in areas that, in real life, tend to go towards red and pink, this is very obvious in the nose, cheeks, and knuckles. Thinking with a logical mind it’s completely absurd to have warmer tones on the body of a zombie like creature but I didn’t want to limit myself by using only blue tones, it looks boring and artificial. In real life these colors are created by blood vessels in areas where the skin is very thin. ** Scythe **for her weapon I applied a cool gray with some warmer variations, this color scheme is influenced by the work of H.R giger. Base I’d like to talk about the design for the base which, to be honest, I forgot to develop along with the character.My main idea with the base is to show that Lady Death inhabits a very sterile and arid land, at the end of the day she is at hell.You can see a that she walks over dirt and rocks, a sign that she’s surrounded by death and loneliness. As part of the landscape we can see some bones and skulls to reinforce the idea of lack of living creatures, yet we can see three hands that try to reach her legs.This hands represent that all creatures are subordinated to her power and seek an evil blessing with a simple touch of the princess of the damned.1- The hand with skin burns represents the souls of those who are newcomers to hell, tortured souls that suffer for the sins comitted on earth.2- The hand with greenish rotten skin and pustules is the reminder of the decay that has infected the souls of those who have been trapped and have forgotten their humanity3- Last but not least, the hand of a demon shows that even dark creatures and entities bow before her presence. The cherry on the top, at least in my vision, are the simese twins that emerge from the ground, this malevolent creatures remind us that in hell there’s only perversion and any trace of innocence is lost. Thanks for reading till this pointI’m really happy to be very close to finish this creative journey, last but not least it’s mandatory to talk about splitting the sculpture in several pieces to be printed, this will be my last entry before showing the final rendered images. See yaMay Zbrush be with you

  • Thank you @daceronine! If I remember I save in google cloud, I will have to stick a note to do it more often. Lamp is from life. Poses are from refs but I look at refs for a while and then try to do it myself and look it up if needed. Outfits and rest is from imagination Something went wrong while installing system so we will have to wipe everything again... pc works but something is wrong. We will wait till internet is done and I will save everything on cloud this time Threads came out in eu. It's been 3 days and I had more engagement than after half a year on instagram. It feels really nice I hope it stays this way A portrait of old dude. It's the same character I posted a while ago. Inspired by Bayard Wu work. At first I thought of him as a bear but I named him Fenrir and I think wolf suits him better. Eye gave me a bit of hard time but I think it is fine now. I focused on face and forgot about area below. The way I draw hair clashes with greying hair. I had the same problem while doing Lohse's white hair. Does it looks like it is greying here? I love how desaturated red looks blue there. I keep lying to myself that I will use different color scheme but It all comes down to this blue and yellowish one it is just flipped this time Have a great day!

Hey guys!
My name is Robert, though I also use 'Van', based on my oldest original character, Van S* Dream.

I'm a hobbyist learning the fundamentals of art in-between taking care of my mother. Been drawing on and off since I could hold a pencil, and taking it a bit more seriously within the last few years.

Really hoping to use this platform to push myself to the next level, and meet fellow art lovers as well! Thanks again for having me!

Hi everyone, I'm Katie from Australia. I've been drawing on and off all my life, and have had moments of "serious art time" here and there, but also had long periods of break as well. Now I've refocused my energy back onto art full time and am striving to become a concept artist/illustrator. My ultimate dream is to publish my own comic books.

I like fantasy, semi-realism and story telling.

Currently doing both traditional and digital art, although more digital right now. You can check out some of my stuff at http://katiewangart.com

I'm mostly self-taught. I've attended classes at CGMA (Intro to Perspective, Character Design for Film, Dynamic Sketching 1 & 2), Schoolism (Intro to Character Design) and Concept Design Academy in Pasadena LA. But other then that not in school right now and need to save up to attend more online classes. It's hard to get the right kind of education where I live in Australia.

Hi everyone! I've been on Cubebrush for a few weeks and I'm already loving this community! I've been drawing for years already and is mostly focused on 2D/illustration, but I've been freelancing as a graphic designer mostly. I hope to improve more in my art and to someday pursue a creative career. I look forward to meet and befriend talented people here! ^^

Hello Cubebrush! I'm Jack, from London, UK.

I've decided to engage with the community rather than lurk and watch everything, like I usually do. I want to learn as much as possible!

I'm an illustrator and storyboard artist and I'm currently waist deep into making a switch into 3D art - with a focus on game environments - to satisfy my insane addiction to world building and attention to detail. Say 'hi' to me on twitter! I'll mostly be babbling about Overwatch!

Hi people!

My name is Amos and I'm a self-taught 17yr old artist living in Maryland. I have been denied art school so my goal is to persevere and make it as an artist a different way.

I hope to become sufficient as a painter and designer overall so I can apply it into any field i desire in the new future. My goal here is to learn from all of you guys and maybe make a couple friends. And to do just that here's my discord to anyone who may want to the same, Amos #9405.

Hi all,

My name is Darko Markovic I am from Belgrade, Serbia. Used to be car designer and product designer before i made a switch to concept art.

Now i do Hard surface stuff working in Fusion 360 / Maya / Zbrush. I think that 2D and 3D intersect all the time and they cant be separated.

Feb '17

Hi I'm JMan_ForNex and I'm here to grow fundamentally to push all of my work, both realistic and imaginary, to newer heights. I desire to be a game designer, but I want to use art skills that probably rival that of a concept artist to get me there. Starting off I want to be able to make a game completely by myself. Then I hope my increase in skill causes people to want to work with me or pay for my work. However goal however is game designer in my own studio(s)/ company. Less than a year from now I hope to be producing much better work from where I am now.

Hi everyone :smiley:

My name is Théo, but you can call me Torok. I'm an art student, and I learn 3D at school. I really enjoy 3D softwares but my main passion is the concept art and animation 2D-3D ! So I draw everyday to increase my skills and become the best I can :smile:

My mom always motivated me to do my passion because she trusts that I can keep my passion and do it as a job and I'm here now speaking to you haha

I use many social networks as instagram, facebook or artstation to share my work to friends and subs.

I hope that I'll met many interessants and talented people here :wink:

Hello Cubebrush community!

My name is Gabriel. I found this site Through Marc's youtube channel and it seems pretty cool. I probably should have don't this before the end of art war but hey I guess better late than never.

I'm an amateur artist, animator, and musician. I did all three from as early as I can remember myself but I only really started getting serious more recently. I don't share a lot of my art since I'm not very good at polishing and I absolutely hate cleanup but I do occasionally put it up on my twitter and on my newgrounds (newgrounds is less up to date but it does contain some of my more polished pieces) . In addition to that I put my music up online and I'm about to put alot more up once I will have a finished piece that I'm satisfied with.

Is my perfectionism a curse or a gift? find out in my appropriately names twitter where I dump all my stuff regardless of how crappy I think they are. This is super long so if you read all the way up to here say hi sometimes, have a good day and know that you are a cool person.

                                   Hugs and kisses
                                             -Gabriel

Hey everyone!
It's been a while that I wanted to join this forum but didn't got around to it.
My name's Jeremie and I'm from Montreal, Canada! I studied 2D Animation, coincidentally, at the same school @marc dropped out from! Although, he tried to study 3D animation. I actually graduated from that school and I loved my experience compared to him. I think he didn't like it because when he attended it, the program was still very new and it wasn't as well developed as it is today. I got to draw a lot obviously and I ended up studying in a very strong student year so I really enjoyed it. Although, I have to say the school didn't do a good job teaching how to paint so I had to learn that myself by reading books, watching tutorials and taking online classes.

Anyway, after I graduated, I got to work on some local animated tv series and now I'm working on an App game but my goal is to become a freelance Illustrator/Concept Artist. I joined this forum to help discipline myself and gain more motivation. I also want to experiment more and pratice! I need to became more consistent with my personal art again.

See you around!
