# About me

Digital Art hobbyist/enthusiast

I'm a hobbyist more than an artist.
I do not create my own models, textures, shaders, etc., and I normally don't do any postwork.
For me it's more about trying to get the best results using what little time/skills/technical capabilities I have at my disposal, rather than actually creating an artwork.
And I hold those in high regards, who actually create the assets I use - They are the real artists.

DAZ Studio 4.10, NVIDIA Iray

Should perfect art exist?

MBBA In reply to JoeSketchConcepts-DA [2019-01-28 13:53:55 +0000 UTC]

Well, that's a tough question.

One would have to define perfection first... oh... and art, too, of course.

I'd say a piece of art is perfect, whenever the artist thinks it's perfect - Everything else is a pure matter of personal taste.

Thank You.

It's nice to hear someone appreciates my "work".

You do have some nice pieces, too.

Kisses

You’re welcome. I really like Your work - And I guess I’ll get myself a VGF-14 of Yours soon.

Thank-you, I'm glad you like my works... I'm happy to answer any questions you might have regarding my 3D models...

I'll get back to You on that.

I just purchased the VGF-14. And I thought: "45.00 Dollars for the bundle is quite a bit... and I don't need the ETO boosters and HCA armour...
So I went with just the standalone VGF.
But at the checkout I realized it wasn't USD, but Canadian Dollars.

I saw that and thank-you for supporting my works... the bundle also includes the weapons expansions and other extras for the VGF-14 (for which there are a number of add-on sets)... I hope you enjoy the models!

Thanks for the Lama, too.

Hey, You do trooping? Are You in the 501st?
I always wanted to do that - I do own a bucket*, though.

*) A TFA one... don't shoot me! Honestly I dislike the asymmetry of the original ANH buckets - But the symmetrical 'reproductions' lack 'soul', so I'm kind of stuck.

P.S: 'Baby Groot'?

You're welcome
Yes, Baby Groot from Guardians Of The Galaxy. It's been a running joke on my page that I give all the llamas to him.

I'm with a group called Star Warriors which is about 50% UKG 501st and 50% other costumers.
We cover not just Star Wars but all sci-fi and fantasy.
I have a full set of ANH TK armour, a visitor office uniform (V), Earthforce Medical officer uniform (Babylon 5), MACO uniforms (1 full squad of NX-01 and 1 full squad of Terran Empire) and random assorted props, weapons and stuff

Nice.

Honestly, I think TFA was quite good, and I really like the 'updated' design of the First Order Troopers... but I won't get into any prequel/sequel/canon discussion here.Β Β 
But while we're at it: V like the 80s original or the 2009 remake?Β Β

Starfire-Productions In reply to MBBA [2018-02-22 17:58:40 +0000 UTC]


Indeed, we each get out of it what we like. I grew up with the OTC so that will always be my favourite.
I love the current animated series of Rebels but I know most hard core fans hate it.

For V, I'm talking the original 80's version. The 2009 remake was okay-ish but not a patch on Kenny's original story line and characters.
A friend of mine (who all the V cards in my gallery were for) has the original patterns in his V museum so at least our uniforms are 100% accurate.

Nice gallery you have <3
Could you give me an opinion on my art and animation.
I want to improve my art. I will bring it to improve the next one.
Thank you so much ><

MBBA In reply to chinchongcha [2018-01-17 15:37:00 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot.

Your gallery is awesome - I can't think of anything that would need improvement.
I like Your use of light and highlights, and the vibrant colors.
And the animations look smooth and natural.

You're part of a group called 'self-taught-artists' - I almost can't believe someone could reach that artistic level just by practicing...
(That's mainly because that didn't work out for me very well in the past... I'm lacking the least bit of talent for that kind of art...)

My only critique: Your girls look very young, and that's not exactly my cup of tea - Especially when it comes to rather 'adult' poses/themes.
So if You added, let's say six to ten years of age, I'd be a regular watcher. Β

You got some great miniatures there.

Painting miniatures... That's another thing, I have tried and sucked at it.
Never played Warhammer or 40K. But I have some 'unseen' BattleMechs in my basement... don't hate me for that.
(I remember there used to be some strange feud between Warhammer and BattleTech players...Β Β )Β 

P.S.: And because of the crappy paint job, they should stay 'unseen'...

You're welcome.

Took me some time to realize that You're daveyabbo .

I really like the look of DeadBlade andΒ System 46. *)
And as far as I can tell System 50 looks great, too.

*) Got both on my wishlist, I'm just hesitating because of the price tag and the fact that both are Genesis 3 content...

thank you! yeah you have to keep your eyes peeled for deals, i know i do! have you moved to gen 8? i'm starting on a few gen 8 ideas now and i was hoping to get my earlier versions converted over but haven't managed yet although from what i can tell it's possible..

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

MBBA In reply to DAVEYABBO [2017-09-19 09:37:21 +0000 UTC]

I wouldn't say, I moved to Gen 8...
But I'm just a hobbyist, I do not create content, just use ist.
And even with Daz itself being free, that hobby can get quite expensive.
So I'm always thinking: 'Do I really need this?' And that's why I'm more open to spend money on stuff for the latest generation...
(Don't get me wrong Gen 3 is still great, and Your product show that Gen 3 can be extremely detailed.)

I'll look out for discounts.
Though I always wonder about how those Daz discounts affect vendors. Because if someone provides a high quality product, he or she deserves an appropriate payment.Β

DAVEYABBO In reply to MBBA [2017-09-19 19:13:03 +0000 UTC]

yeah i hear ya! i don't buy as much content as i used to purely down to the fact i tend to be creating more and more.. and it is a bit hard to judge which gen figure to produce for sometimes...there are people who stick to earlier gens and then those who constantly upgrade....and in a ideal world every product would work with every figure but tech moves on..Β 

i still class myself as a hobbyist, my third has gone in for vetting so hopefully it'll be released soon...it's nice to earn for your labour but i didn't really start off with that as a reason...i just like creating stuff i didn't seem to see...and even now i'd like to create stuff i want as opposed to what others want...
