Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.

so I have this 7200 x 4500 at 300 DPI image I made in photoshop



but somewhere a long the way I hosed up and allowed it to become a bit pixelated as you can see here



I don't think it was from an upscale, more likely a stupid filter curves combo but unfortunately I can't reverse as I have continued on with a merged layer before realising.

I was trying to figure out the best way to get rid or cover up or stylise this pixelation but I haven't been able to find a better method than tedious manual work perhaps assisted by cutout or similar but manual I think would take too long for it to be worth it.

If anyone can think of a better technique to use I'd be all ears.

If you say so! These are some things I did for people I liked. It's surprisingly hard to make art that looks bad on purpose.

I've been really getting into this 80's retro neon-future style art lately. Here is my first attempt at it, I think it turned up all right.

I have been making these kinds of stuff all week. It has been a lot of fun to learn this style.


Did this one after I finished the Sonic 2006 Retsupurae:


This one when I was thinking about Mad Max again:


This one I just wanted to get back to the same style as my first one (but somehow made it a bit bad?):

These could be a lot better if you played with over all colour: duotones, gradient maps, etc. I know that's not the style you're going for but particularly that Mad Max one could work with a general colour direction

Yeah true. I wasn't really sure where I was going with any of them when I was doing them (and it shows lol). Thanks for the input, I might have to go back over them when I have time. :)

you're relying a whole lot on little flourishes like neon and cheesy fonts and ignoring things like composition, contrast, depth, etc. I mean I guess when you just lump everything about the 80's into one category and call it a style you aren't looking to go very deep but the amount of time you're spending on these seems like you're more into it than that

I was in my painting class last night and since we were given free reign on what to do (only three people showed up since it was on a day outside the regular schedule.) I sketched this out for what my next acrylic piece will be. I've wanted to do something cute like this for a very long time. I promised myself I'd do it once I learned oil painting, but I'm just gonna do it in acrylic.
The teacher told me that I could probably just print it out and trace the lines with chalk to transfer the base sketch over, so we'll see how that goes!

As an environment artist, it's been like forever years since I did a character, so I'm doing one. Most of this is just exercise/for fun since she'll be costumed, but man it's been fun.

I hope so, cus I'd like to see more of that from you! Nice work - I like what's going on with her muscles and that butt indentation when the glutes meet the thigh. (since I peeked at the other thread, I also feel obligated to mention that this body type can exist for women; it's what an athlete who lifts but doesn't cardio excessively, and doesn't diet particularly hard would look like - a female powerlifter or maybe boxer in the heavyweight class might have a similar physique.)

Just found the thread, here's some of my stuff:

I mostly do pen and ink and color it digitally but I do a fair amount of Photoshop painting and Zbrush sculpting too. Hopefully I'll finish the space marine guy this century. I need a faster computer. Haven't done enough realistic rendering so I still got an uncanny valley thing going on with his face, but I'm getting there.

I'm pretty much a n00b when it comes to digital coloring. Here's a work in progress, feedback appreciated on how it looks so far. The mouse fur just looks... funky. I'm also indecisive about if I should use more or less contrast.

Hi, howdy, im not some kinda teacher but heres a list of things.
-The mouse fur looks weird because you rendered it in more detail than you did anything else with all the definition in thé coloring and not shown with line art
-You should use more contrast because there almost isn't any, even though you used pretty complimentary colors the saturation and darkness is like the same across most of the image
-It looks like you shaded with watered down black don't do that
-Your lighting is inconsistent, there's shadow on the underside of the mushroom top edge but not on the underside itself and nothing is casting shadows on the ground
-There's a fore and middleground but no background and no atmospheric perspective
-Your anatomy and line quality could use practice
-Is she gonna gently caress that rat

Also, they don't really look like they're UNDER the mushrooms. I'm not sure if that's the intention or not, but her wings in particular pass in front of the top of the mushroom, making it clear that she's not under it. Contrast and tone issues also make this problem more exasperated. (If she's not meant to be under it then nevermind.)
