Just had a look through your gallery; there's some outstanding work in there, sir. I don't know which are better - your fabulous drawings, or your equally fabulous 3D models. Either way, your portfolio is seriously impressive; you've clearly got a talented head on those shoulders. Nod Nod Nod Nod Nod Nod Nod

No problem, and thank you! As a fellow artist, I know the value of decent feedback; compliments are nice, but without meaning, they're a bit hollow. Critique, on the other hand... painful at first, but so helpful in the long run. Nod Nod Nod Nod Nod Nod Nod

I can understand that. I was in what felt like a 7 year rut of creative block. Producing nothing of value or creativity for that long, with no motivation to do so either. Shitty feeling. but I feel rejuvenated lately. and loving it. And looking at what you do gets me inspired to get better! So, I'm happy to watch your work.

Thanks so much for the watch! You've got an awesome gallery! Keep up the great work! Also, I'm always looking for a modeler to work with, for personal work, if you ever want one of your creatures to animate around ;) (Wink)

And beware, I might just take you up on the animation offer one day ;) (Wink)

Hey Stangely , i am going to study game design and i wonder if you got any tips how to start and become good at using 3d programs like Zbrush , mudbox and such. :) (Smile) You do not need to answer if you feel you don't have the time or just do not wan't to.

RawSunlight In reply to MaxTheSwed [2012-05-10 19:14:31 +0000 UTC]

Hey Max, make sure you have a clear calendar for a month, download a 30 day demo of your software of choice and watch as many online video tutorials as you can find while you do nothing else but practice... youtube is today's font of all knowledge :) (Smile)
Zbrush is a tricky piece of software because of its 'unique' interface, but once you get to grips with it, it will free your mind.
It's also much cheaper than all the other major modelling programs

Thank you so much for this :D (Big Grin) I will do as you say :) (Smile) Do you have any favorite channels on youtube which you think explains good for newbies like me ?
And once again thanks for responding makes me happy.

Hi Max,

The Zbrush website has a ZClassroom area with loads of great videos, you'll get all the fundamentals there. Gnomon & Digital Tutors have free videos too, as do ZBrush Workshop and Visualarium.

cheers
