Yo Lowthian haha thanks dude, lol bring it on, will be interested in seeing what you do thinking of practicing anything in particular this summer? And yeah, will definitely be specialising in concept art for sure, although might pick at some 3d modelling too on the side, what about you?

tankstar79 In reply to Spikings [2013-05-22 13:51:16 +0000 UTC]
im thinking of them same concept art.. but bev and that wants me to do more so il be doin 3d to .lol. im just practicing on everything like, all my bad parts and then make some projects doin the bio shock pics at the mo and then some stuff for a mate office but have loads of stuff i need to do and some mudbox and maya i think? but your work rocks so have my work cut out to get as good as u .lol.

Spikings In reply to tankstar79 [2013-05-22 19:14:08 +0000 UTC]
Yeah I'm the same, Bev wants me to also do some 3d in the third year, but I don't want to do so much that I become a generalist, not all game companies prefer that. I guess we'll see how it goes.
Lol, I've gone and made a list of things to practice this summer, it's huge... xD just finished a new picture that I'm gonna upload, but already I found mistakes I need to practice out, which I'll be doing tonight mudbox and maya are good, see if you can get zbrush if you can, it's the program most copanies use for sculpting, and is more advanced and accommodating than mudbox. Hehe, I still have a long way to go though, keep your DA updated with your stuff over summer, I can always give you some critique if you like

yeah that would be good hun i need critiquing like there are a few things i need to improve upon myself like... i need to find a free download of zbrush so will have a look once im back in preston and can use my pc.. whats ya got planned like??? would be cool to see ya list . i have a few things to get done like, environment art is one of my main problems i have find it hard to make them.. the want me to concentrate on low poly high textured models cause of the candle and bottle i did... but its not what i want to do at all like... scott and rhoda are goin to get me to work sololy on my art as its my strongest part. did they tell you about the level we have to do for the whole year? the one where we come up with 4 ideas or sumit over summer.... and you dont know when we get our results do ya?? i liked the new pic ya put up like, and there are a few things to look at, it was very well layed out and looked cool, and scott and hannah gave good critique like, i think the light source needs to be more really, so it can add a lil more shade on the face but thats just my opition .. still bloody good tho

Cool stuff, if I see any new uploads from you I'll be sure to comment.
Definitely do that, the program is worth it. The user interface is a nightmare to get used to, but once you get past that it's plain sailing. Lol, loads of things! Landscapes, sky, mountains, trees, cars, planes, spaceships, common animals, skyscrapers, houses, shacks, beaches, weapons, old people, young people...the list goes on. Basically I'm trying to stretch my 'visual knowledge' so I can draw a wider range of things. The more things I can draw well, the better prepared I can be for third year.
Yeah Rhoda and Scott explained the level brief. I think I'll stick with my strong points and do a game a bit like Journey, beautifully simple and lovable. As for results, I got mine through the post June last year, so I guess we'll get them (and the emails) around that time too, although that's just a guess.
Ahh yeah, there are a few things I want to tackle from that. In particular eyes and dynamic lighting. It's just a bit too bland, but I chickened out of making it more interesting in the end. >.< Thanks though, glad you like!

my latest picture is up on here and on fb if ya fancied a look .. its the bio shock one im hoping to get it finished maybe this wknd and ready for canvus printing and selling... got 1 and 2 of the series to do like so goin to be bizzy.lol. as well as my avengers one... yeah your list sounds good, i have a lot i need to improve upon vehicle, spaceships, mechs, robots are just a few as well as anatomy more and poses...i havent really thought about the level brief yet, will need to have a good 4 ideas ready i think and play to my strong drawing and improve the paint aspect and might through in a few different styles into it have a lil experimenting me thinks.lol. but im goin to make a new fb page just for my work to promote myself i think and more on here and start a blog and use twitter a lil more me thinks just get as much exposure as posible.

Ahh yeah I remember that. Will head over and critique in a sec.
Yeah, there's a lot to try and draw xD at least it will expand my knowledge of drawing, which is what this year is all about for me, since it's the last chance we'll all get to make mistakes without any ramifications...once we get a job, we can't afford to make mistakes. >.<
Yeah I haven't thought too much about the level brief yet, just got a rough idea of which direction I'll be taking. Still got to make it unique though, and not just a rip-off of something else already out there.
For sure, the more styles you throw in an try out, the better. Employers are looking for peeps who can do many styles, and aren't just one-trick ponies, so try everything! Good idea with creating new spaces on different social sites, makes you easier to find

Awww thanks! Really glad you like the stuff!
I'm pretty jealous of your slugger sword, it looks awesome sauce. I can't really get the full idea of 3d modelling like that. :0 Thanks for the watch by the way, internet hug to you!

Du-Da In reply to Spikings [2013-04-22 18:35:28 +0000 UTC]
you're welcome...
The Slugger seems to have drawn more attention than most of my works,
But I don't connect with it myself that much!!!
maybe because it's a 3D model,
I really prefer 2D works,
specially if done with traditional mediums...
( internet hug you back )

Spikings In reply to Du-Da [2013-04-22 22:15:06 +0000 UTC]
2D works are cooler to do for sure, maybe it's just the composition of the slugger that's so...enticing. Like sugar honey. @.@ Your traditional drawings are coolbeans too though, so keep practicing with them like a boss!

FRAANNNN xD
I might be able to enter the contest, but not for a little while, my uni work is clogging up like hell, it's so hard to get through atm but 2000 points does sound mighty enticing, will have a look into it this weekend
Not been too bad, really busy with assignments and stuff, plus it's getting to the end of my uni year, so gonna miss all my FRAANNNSSS soon xD wish I could upload more stuff here, but a lot of what I'm doing right now is either client work or 3d modelling. /fail
How about you, how's life treating you?

Oooohhh, nice!! What are you gonna study in particular? I swear you've said before that it's animation, but I keep thinking fine art too...
The comic book sounds interesting, just remember the more pages you draw, the better you get...then when you've finished, you get to completely redraw the first half again!
Haha thanks dude, appreciate it! I don't wanna graduate yet, having too much of a good time - you probs will too when you become a sophomore ;D can't wait to see your progress over the coming year
