critique and comments very welcome, of course this is a rough piece because I'm tired of rendering shit out to oblivion and you barely learn anything by doing that. So I just wanted to jump into some concept to wind down. I remember there being a time where I was so frustrated because everything I did looked so rough and unclean, i figured out how to render and now I'm tired of rendering (even though I think i'm not bad at it at all) xd

I ike it! The only issue I see is with her hand holding to scythe. The position you have it right now looks failry uncomfortable (just try doing it yourself and you'll see) I think something like this would look more natural.

Beyond that, nice work!

Thank you! Yeah I know with the arm and I noticed her legs are way too long too, with the way I positioned her crotch xdd

Hey guys so we started 3D Modeling in Maya in University aaaand ... yeah this is my first attempt at modeling something. The assignment was to make a shield and a sword.

As you can see: there. are. issues. I know that I should try to avoid things but of course I'm not familiar with Maya. So please:

SHARE ALL YOUR TIPS REGARDING MAYA (if you have 'em)

And of course feel free to critcize this mess, if you can give me hints at how to do it better next time as well. Yeah ... I was really scared at 3D. I am always scared that people will make fun of me and even though all my mates at uni said it looks awesome (disregarding all the technical stuff, I got read to filth for that) I still feel stupid and kinda proud of myself. It*s a constant struggle ... just ike the 2D stuff. I really wanna look more into 3D, it was actually fun to make this once you understand some of the basic stuff.

Yeah this guy. Another project for Uni ... we were actually by no means supposed to take it this far like I did with the clothes but it was hella fun.

Madame Zahulu's Potion Palace
Madame Zahulu is a nice witch that likes performing weird magic to create some very potent potions. Nobody really knows what goes on inside that house, except for her apprentice, the Little Garden Witch Ava. But people come around once in a while to buy herps and potions, or just to look at her big garden with an overabundance of beautiful plants.

Garden Witch Ava
A sketch I made of a charcater concept I had in mind. It's a young garden witch.

Ava design is neat! :3

Alboba 2019-05-04 18:11:01 UTC #152

today sucked

Today was ... rough. I got a job interview to work on a Point & Click Adventure ... but of course I did not get the job. Like so many times before. Why? Because I don't know how to animate. At this point I feel so useless and my artwork seems to be pointless too. Nobody wants it anyways. Not for what it is. And I have to know a billion other things to make it in this industry. 2D, 3D + Animation in both fields. And I can't do ... well anything. I remember being excited to learn all of this stuff. Now ... well, appearently I have to be able to already know everything to get a simpel job. I cried my eyes out today. I screamed and hated everything about my abilities. I yelled at my boyfriend out of jealousy, because he as a programmer is actually a valuable asset and got a job with ease. I am just one of many.

Ah, can totally relate. Been in this same situation many times. Remember it's not that no one wants your work, this is just one studio and one project. As you know the industry has a high turnover rate so more opportunities will come. Also, there are other ways of leveraging your work and knowledge outside of getting a studio job. For example, I thought your crits on my sketchbook were really great and am interested to know more about your approach to color. Maybe that could translate into a demo video or pdf breakdown?

Chicken.v2
by jilltoxic
on Sketchfab

So I modeled, textured, rigged, skinned and animated this chicken. I did not know how to put the animations onto sketchfab, I'll figure it out at some point for now there's just this ugly gif.

It is my very first time doing all of that stuff and I hope to do it in the next semester game project.

Alboba 2019-05-25 14:53:56 UTC #158

also working on some concepts that are within my character mika*s story

Alboba 2019-05-25 18:20:45 UTC #159

done for now

cedricgo 2019-05-25 23:09:10 UTC #160

I like the chicken so much! He's really cool

And very nice work on that last character piece. She looks lovely!

sry i am in uni and a billion stuff is happening always so i keep forgetting to reply to you. first of all: thank you for taking the time to answer. and i feel very flattered about what you are saying, people seem to like my coloring technique but i never saw it as something that special. it was a really rough day and i am glad you appreciate my critiques. some people don*t appreciate them at all because i can be very harsh, that*s just who i am. sometimes i overreact. again, thanks for your nice works and checking out my stuff.

Alboba 2019-06-11 15:11:23 UTC #162

thank you!
