hi, i am not working on any game projects or am in the gaming feild but, i would like to contribute to the art side of the gamedev.net forums. i plan on being apart of a game team in the future so i fugured it counts enough. i like how the forums are comprised of two hemispheres, one i am not so familiar with and want to be familiar with. i learned how to use photoshop, six months ago and have recently gott'n my hands dirty with a wacom tablet and painter. i am nearing the end of my first 3d modeling class, using 3d studio max, loving every day of it. any criticism or comments more than welcome. -killing.people student, art institute of phoenix game art and design [edited by - killingpeople on December 9, 2002 11:58:52 AM]

Whoa, thats pretty cool. nice!
Those pipes in the box looks real? (are they taken from a photo?)

The only thing I noticed was that his fingers look rather long...maybe you intended that way?


On A sidenote: Would you be interested in doing some facial (head) modelling for my game development team?

(Its not a paying job, but it *would* count as job experience, because we *are* a company.)

Let me know if your interested

I was wondering if any other conceptorgians were here. Cool pic.

mtw:
hi!
i wouldnt know. (?) i just found this place, i am rather new to forums all together.

raymondo:
i am very interested, i dont have a computer right now, and i dont want to make any promises i cant keep, so i am not going to lie to you, i probably couldnt find the time right now.

what are you working on, maybe your project is so exciting i will sell a kidney and buy a machine. right now all i have to use now is my room mates and the ones in my schools labs.

here is a detailed shot:


no photos, i did punch and stab a box i had, for reference but it is all paint. most of the character i painted using a digital mouse and the background i used using an extra wacom a friend gave to me because "i needed one".

i am really pleased with the copper and galvanized look on the pipes, it mostly happened on accident, painter is that good.

i accidently saved over the psd file when cropping this! i had an earlier file saved so i have all the details of the character, but lost the detail of the background, i was so pissed - i thought i had lost it all! this is the second time i saved over stuff and wasnt thinking, what a maroon - i got so lucky.

they were like this:


the hands looked alot worse, you think they are too long now?
there is a kind of stretched and dynamic style to his anatomy but if it looks annoying i want to fix it, i made his fingers that long on purpose, but now you have me staring at them again.

.. i think .. i am .. gonna chop em off ..

i have put around 35 hours into the piece so far.

I wasn''t actually asking a question, I was just making that remark since I''ve seen you at conceptart.org.

It looks awesome! Reminds me of the freaky gay dad from American Beauty.
