  • 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.

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!

Hi everyone,
I'm Mace and i'm studying concept in Vancouver.
I've been drawing since a long time ago but decided to turn it into a carrer 3years ago, and so i've been studying digital painting since then.
I'd like to share some of my works with everyone here and hopefully we can motivate and give feedback to each other's works.
I just started my final project at school a week ago and kind of excited to share my process until i finished it completely. I'll start posting all my progress and some studies as well as practice that i will be doing onward (maybe some old works too).

I'm looking forward to have a good time..
Thanks everyone

Hi,
I'm trying to create a new race that live underwater in an MMORPG. Here are some thumbnails that i came up with.
I want to keep this new race humanoid because i want them to be 1 of playable character, and i think human figure is more familiar to most of us. They can go to land to fight the human and to do some hunting in the night (that's why i'm trying to put some human features). They will wear armor from coral and will have 3 jobs/classes (tank, dps, and support)

What do you guys think?

Thank you for dropping by


Really cool concepts.

I like how some of the heads resemble sharks and other aquatic creatures. You can also try to get some inspiration from deep see creatures if you haven't already. That would result in some really interesting characters.

The figures are great aswell but i'd loce to see some more variety. Maybe go crazy with your proportions on the tanks. I'll keep an eye out for updates.

Great job so far!

Hey thanks for your feedback.
I think one of my concern is that i've been trying to design them as a tribe of alien who live in the abyss, that's why i didn't go for lots of fish or underwater creature. But i think it's a good idea to bring something that most of people already familiar with. I'll look up some more references about deepsea creatures and thank you for reminding me that i have to play with proportion as well., lol.

I finally make some progress for this character. After narrowing stuff down i did these sketches and favor the ones with tail rather than the 1 with wings (i think the tail will make more sense so they will be an expert at swimming whereas the wing only help them glide in the water.
If someone stumbled upon this post, your Feedback and opinion would be more than welcome.

Hey there!
The evolution of these seapeople is really cool to see!
I would suggest more difference betwen male and female characters-especially head design.
Concerning the tail, the first and the fourth from the initial tail sketches were my favorites.
The legs-the first post with the body ideas... The third iteration in the top row is something i haven't seen before and i think it's brilliant! They could use the feet as fins in the water but pull their fingers together to walk/run on land.
If they will fight humans, consider their fight style and design the armor that would be needed for that kind of battles (in tight formation, hunter type, ranged or melee etc.)
You might add something that would sugest they are in aggressive stance-like the collar on beta fish.

I hope this is the kind of feedback you want and is helpful.

Anyways, this thread looks great so far, keep it up!

Thanks for dropping by.
And your feedbacks are really great man. I like the beta fish idea the most. I agree they have to be more difference beside the tail.
I'm designing the armor right now and will start to clean the rough sketches a little bit. At the moment, i'm thinking about the male will be more like tank class and the female would be a DPS class (i reference mantis shrimp for the female fighting style).
I will post the armor concept design tomorrow. This is my first time designing something hybrid so i kinda struggle a little bit, but i think i'm getting there.

Thanks again for your feedback and i really appreciate it.

I'm trying to do some armor design for my characters while developing the species a little bit more. The armor could change a little bit in further development.
I tried to incorporate turtle shell for the male character and crab, lobster, and shells for female as DPS character.

Feel free to give your opinion if you have some ideas and thank you for stopping by.

Cheers

Nice work there with the exploration of armor!
I love all of the shields (also the red one). But that's not very helpful is it;)
Armor design-the middle black for male is my favorite. Weapon design... The last one is kind of too sketchy to be understood-the other two are cool looking tools for piercing enemy's hearts. If they fight in a tight formation like a phalanx, this is great but if you want a tank, that jumps into the frey and just damages everything round him, these weapons are too slick imo. Something for hacking/slashing/smashing would be more apropriate. True, a shield could be used in such a fashion...
Head from the first and second black characters look great, i would describe the third as a bit goofy.
I think something is a bit off with the anatomy-the males seem to be missing knees or they are being bent in the opposite direction. There is no such issue with the female character. I guess it's just the pose of the males...
As for the females, the middle one seems to be the best but i think that is simply because it's the easyest to understand when looking at it. There are so many lines that it's hard to make out what is what. Using different line thicknesses would help i think...

Thanks for the feedback. I'd been busy to prepare for my presentation and went through it quite alright.
I changed a couple of things and came up with this design for a while.

I'm still stuck with the head design. lol. But after the presentation i've got some feedback that i could add some distinguished fish/sea creature feature to my character. I think that's a good idea but i've been trying to avoid such things because i don't want my character to be recognize as human+fish/sea creature, i want them to be more like alien that can swim and go to the surface and fight.
I also clarify what their armor would look like.

Thanks again for dropping by and give your time and feedback

I'm glad to hear it went well with the presentation.

The idea of giving your characters some more destinguishable fish/sea creature feature is not bad. I think it's easyer to change it more alien-like after you have the base than start into the wild with no boundaries...

The head designs you have for the female and male are really cool-the larger ones. I like how you managed to add that collar to them, it looks natural/believable. But since this is game design, you could experiment with the shape a bit more (maybe making it more spiky), to make it as clear as possible that it is dangerous to be round that one when the collar is spreaded.

I know you are not focusing on rendering the image but it would be easyer to read the image if it wasn't as bright, if you would use darker values too.

Anyways, it's cool to see your characters go through all sorts of metamorphosis and fashion styles:)
