Omg, that's like a million times better! Huge improvement :-)

Only think that looks a bit weird is the sign at the bottom left, but that's easy to fix.

Beautiful! Much better! It's amazing what just a bit of simple knowledge can do.

Thirded. This is really good!

I officially hate bushes. I just can't make good ones. I know these ones are terrible

[claudehuggins]

I promised higher quality when I got internet, so here y'all go. I'm super happy with how this turned out! Thank all y'all for the amazing advice

Like my teacher once told us in my first and only art class I took (just to finish high school), "People say they can't draw, but what they really mean is that they don't draw." Everyone can do it to some degree. And I believe that for everything. That's why I have so many hobbies.

I guess I'll draw bushes on the way to work today.

Looks awesome, claude.

Diving while drawing? Tsk, tsk.

[troflip]

Lol, I don't drive to work (or dive)...

I think one reason I might be having so much trouble with bushes is that they rely heavily on shading, and most of my drawings are line drawings.

I think one reason I might be having so much trouble with bushes is that they rely heavily on shading, and most of my drawings are line drawings.

My technique is to think of the bush as a clump of balls or bubbles, and squiggle the outline and shade accordingly. It might help to draw a bunch of circles for your construction lines, and scribble rough shapes in the corner of each circle, depending on where your light source is, for shading. (Try connecting shapes that are close together; shadows tend to "clump".) Then you can spray tool over it to give the illusion of leaves.
I recommend studying LSL3 for bushes. That's how I learned mine.

I have a couple of keys on my keyboard that don't register unless I strike them a little harder than the rest.

That's an amusing mental image, though. Maybe they work at a secret underwater evil science lab?

I tried drawing them based on circle shapes once, and this was the result: https://twitter.com/IceFallGames/status/760922407997575168

Kind of ick...

The C on my keyboard needs to be hit harder if the SHIFT key is down...

It's been a while since I touched this thread.
Working pretty hard on my SCI0 project, but also dabbling in some mini-projects in AGI.

This is an alien for one of those mini-projects, "Doors". The alien is as of now unnamed, and won't be walking around, and I haven't decided whether to animate him or not since he'll just be standing in one place.
