Hi everyone! Hope your Friday is going great. Here get punched in the feels! Have a great weekend!
That last panel just has so many feels in it. Had to make a quick animated edit. @adorkabletwilightandfriends.
First Project in Zbrush ever for me. Just got the software and this orc face was what I made learning the interface and tools and such. Haven’t done a sculpt before and I’ve never worked with clay (minus elementary school mug for mom). I’ll look back on this in a year and compare it with where I am then.
It’s been a while!
Nyarlathotep is very close to being done, but is still a little rough. I don’t like some of the color transitions (what is with the huge blue line on the left arm?), and I think that the.. “mouth”.. area? could be a bit more vibrant. Still, here’s a WiP.
Great job with the color gradients! The hilights look very well balanced considering how odd the proportions of the model are, nice job!
Fixed it.
Final project for class.

Tumblr: *rolls out “best stuff first”*
My blog:
on the one hand this is a joke post because lol i have never made a good post in my life, but also, if i hadn’t made the connection between this update and my sudden nosedive in activity, i would have been really fucking discouraged about all the shit i’ve been working on lately. i guarantee there are people on tumblr right now who haven’t made that connection, and who are trying to figure out why suddenly no one likes anything they’ve made. and that fucking sucks.
Reminder to go into your settings and turn off ‘Best Stuff First’ because my activity’s tanked a couple days ago for no reason so this stuff IS happening.
You WILL miss content with that setting on.
i ain’t joking when i say that my activity looks JUST like this too and i wasn’t sure why
I can only find the option on the app under Settings > Dashboard Preferences.
To support content creators do us a favour and turn off “Best stuff first”. Open the tumblr app (Android or iOs) and go to “Settings > Dashboard Preferences. And please reblog this post, so that everybody will see this. Thank you very much!
I assumed I just wasn’t writing very well, but maybe it’s not just me.
Am I supposed to pay to get my writing in front of followers now?
We interrupt your regularly-scheduled sci-fi content because this is important for app users, and it sucks. We all follow blogs because we want to see their content, not to have a crappy algorithm decide what’s best.
This blog is down approximately 80%, which doesn’t affect me other than as an annoyance (as this is a hobby and @okayto is small-ish) but the issue undoubtedly hurts others.
Below are instructions for turning it off. You have to do it individually–it doesn’t matter if a blog you follow turns it off, you’ll still be affected unless you do the same.
We don’t normally reblog PSAs, but this is very clearly affecting us, too! If you haven’t been getting your daily dose of RPG humor, this setting is probably why. Turn it off so you can see all the silly shit players say!
Trying to reblog the versions of these instructions with the most notes, so they’ll actually show up for the people afflicted by this update.
((OOC: Hey guys, mod here! I reblogged this on my mod blog, but it’s gotten to the point that Movie Slate’s blog has experienced a drop in activity as well.
If you’re using mobile and you’ve stopped seeing Movie Slate’s posts this is the reason why. You can switch off this feature if you want to see the updates when they are posted, or you can activate the blog alerts so whenever there’s a new post you will get notified.
Thank you for your time, and apologies for the sudden PSA.))

Trying to draw buildings
yo here’s a useful tip from your fellow art ho cynellis… use google sketchup to create a model of the room/building/town you’re trying to draw… then take a screenshot & use it as a reference! It’s simple & fun!
Sketchup is incredibly helpful. I can’t recommend it enough.
There’s a 3D model warehouse where you can download all kinds of stuff so you don’t have to build everything from scratch.

This is an incomplete tutorial, and it drives me crazy every time I see it come around.
We live in a pretty great digital age and we have access to a ton of amazing tools that artists in past generations couldn’t even dream of, but a lot of people look at a cool trick and only learn half of the process of using it.
Here’s the missing part of this tutorial:
How do you populate your backgrounds?
Well, here’s the answer:
If the focus is the environment, you must show a person in relation to that environment.
The examples above are great because they show how to use the software itself, but each one just kind of “plops” the character in front of their finished product with no regard of the person’s relation to their environment.
How do you fix this?
Well, here’s the simplest solution:
This is a popular trick used by professional storyboard and comic artists alike when they’re quickly planning compositions. It’s simple and it requires you to do some planning before you sit down to crank out that polished, final version of your work, but it will be the difference between a background and an environment.
From Blacksad (artist: Juanjo Guarnido)
From Hellboy (Mike Mignola)
Even if your draftsmanship isn’t that great (like mine), people can be more immersed in the story you tell if you just make it feel like there is a world that exists completely separate from the one in which they currently reside – not just making a backdrop the characters stand in front of.
Your creations live in a unique world, and it is as much a character as any other member of the cast. Make it as believable as they are.
Great comments and tutorials!
I’m a 3d artist and have been exploring the possibilities of using 3d as reference for 2d poses. I want to add a couple of tips and things!
Sketchup is very useful for environment references, and I assume it’s reasonably easy to learn. If you’re interested in going above and beyond, I highly recommend learning a proper 3d modeling program to help with art, especially because you can very easily populate a scene or location with characters!
Using 3ds Max I can pretty quickly construct an environment for reference. But going beyond that, I can also pose a pretty simple ‘CAT’ armature (known in 3d as a rig) straight into the scene, which can be totally customized, from various limbs, tails, wings, whatever, to proportions, and also can be modeled onto and expanded upon (for an example, you could 3d sculpt a head reference for your character and then attach it to the CAT rig, so you have a reference for complex face angles!)
The armature can also be posed incredibly easily. I know programs exist for stuff like this - Manga Studio, Design Doll - but posing characters in these programs is always an exercise in frustration and very fiddly imo. A simple 3d rig is impossibly easy to pose.
By creating an environment and dropping my character rig into it, I have an excellent point of reference when it comes to drawing the scene!
Not only that, but I can also view the scene from whatever angle I could ever want or need, including the character and their pose/position relative to the environment.
We can even quickly and easily expand this scene to include more characters!
Proper 3d modeling software is immensely powerful, and if you wanted to, you could model a complex environment that occurs regularly in your comic or illustration work (say, a castle interior, or an outdoor forest environment) and populate the scene with as many perspective-grounded characters as you need!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look at this amazing addition! This is fantastic!
I’ve been working on this guy on and off for a while. Tentacle Alter. Finally have it at a level I can try 3D Printing and painting it at before classes start.
Thanks bra1neater for helping with colors.

Awesome job!
made the other two yesterday during pathfinder for the heck of it. here is all 3 at once.
Quick and simple base I made up, printed, then painted tonight while playing pathfinder with friends.
Not dead, just super busy preparing for grad school, starts end of the month.
One of my pieces was featured! It may have just been a pipe terrain piece but I’m stoked non-the-less! The video features a couple other really cool pieces as well. I especially like the chain wrapped sewer pipe exit. It’s giving me some ideas. Special thanks to @miniwargaming-official-blog!
Learning to use Maya feels like trying to write an essay with my wrong hand.
I’ve been accepted to graduate school for a masters! I’m freaking out a bit but omg excited. I’ll be reorganizing some of my projects since I have so much to do to prepare. expect to see some traditional drawn stuff since I’m being told I should strengthen that. So excited!
Print quality test for upcoming project involving, you guessed it, tentacles. from left to right; .1mm print no tumbling, .1mm print 1 day tumbling, .02mm print no tumbling, .02mm print 1 day tumbling.
Hey Warhammer folks- Anybody got a source on some 28mm old timey diving helmets? Id like to use them on my Genestealer Hybrids. The closest I can find are MaxMinis’ Biohazard helmets which are (probably) too big for a Neophyte but might fit an Acolyte.
Boost! Anyone have any ideas?
You may want to consider some 3D printed sources. I don’t know what your comfort level with programs like blender is or your access to a printer, but with a little modification
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:128783 might work, or you could chop off and just print the head of http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:234791
there’s a couple options of things on thingiverse that might work for ya.
