  • 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 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!

Hi,

My name is Diego "Novanim" Zúñiga, 30 years old, former 2D artist and art director at DeNA West. From Chile.

I love concept art, and it is my goal to someday work in a studio like Blizzard or Riot. I also love making comics, but more as an author instead of working for a publisher like DC or Marvel.

I have been following Cubebrush way back since beta, but never took the time to actually participate with the community. Now that DeNA West has closed doors, I have returned to freelance, but I feel lost about my own level, and what things to do to get a new jobs, seeing so many many options out there, but also so much competition.

After four years working for a studio, with no interaction with other communities, I lost touch. Now, I want to relearn what is required to keep growing as an artist, and also, to pay the bills in the process. I hope to be a contribution to this community, to share my knowledge, and also to find inspiration and guidance from those with more experience.

I am thankful to Marc and his team for creating such an amazing platform focused on the artistic growth of the community. Keep going guys!

Cheers!

Hi, I'm Hakeem or Keem currently working on my associates degree in graphic design. In terms of art I'd say I'm a beginner as far as digital art goes and more intermediate with traditional. My own personal goal is to make it as a concept and sequential artist. As far as games goes I'm fairly quick to pick up on any fps, role play or fighting games. I'm only weakness is any sports game.

Hi there. I'm Yahya, and I'm a pixel artist/animator who currently resides in Montreal.

My art inspirations are the artists who worked on CAPCOM's old-school and wonderous fighting games, Tetsuya Nomura, John Wallin Liberto, and the art of MARVEL/DC Comics. I'm also an avid listener of hip-hop and rap as well.

Marc Brunet's videos basically brought me here, and I'm hoping to learn new things, and meet new people.

Cheers.

Hi everyone!

My name is Mateo and I'm from Barcelona, Spain.
I studied cinematography, but one day I start doing "no ones know what things" with sculptris and this changed all my life ^^.

Now I'm studying at university where I'm making a game with other students in one year, learning all aspects about it.
I'm also working at the cartography institute helping with some 3D projects, creating a workflow and fixing errors from scanned maps.

What I love is to design, sculpt and modeling characters and this is what I want to focus at first.
Untill I finish university I'm focused on learning the tools, the basics and exploring all subjects I can, but I really want to finish it to focus on my character art portfolio.

I came here couse I'm looking for a comunity where I can meet nice people ,share knowledge and opinions, and just talk about art, aRT, AAART x).

Hey everybody!

My name is Camille and I'm a 21 year old artist from Canada.
I'm currently just working part time at a day job that's not particularly my dream job, but it's fine. Like probably most on here, I'd love to be able to just do art for the whole day if I could and to live by it.

I do not really have any background concerning art school. I'm mostly self-taught, feasting on feedback, tutorials and podcasts. My goal would be to be doing illustrations for book covers and/or tabletop games.

I'm looking forward with interacting with some of you guys! :smile:

Hey everyone!
I've been looking for a community for quite some time right now!
I have a master in architecture and i've been using Rhino 3D/maxwell/Sketch Up/ a bit of Revit, but right now except for architectural visualisation, the field doesnt appeal to me anymore. This is why i'm learning Zbrush/3ds max and maya. I want to be an environmental artist and to improve I need criticism, so please feel free to comment on any of my work!

May '17

Hey, welcome!
Weirdly enough, I'm at almost the same place right now, Master's Degree in Architecture and no desire whatsoever to pursue a career in that field, I'd much rather do illustrations and comics. Feels nice to know I'm not the only person like that :smile:
Good luck with your new path, I'll be looking out for your art!
