SO YOU WANT TO ART
- drawing attacks (nyaparts):
Click me for the brushes used in the tutorial
A few peeps were wondering how I drew attacks in my nuzlocke comic, so I made a quick/kinda sloppy tutorial about it! Tbh it’s just me spamming luminosity and overlay layers haha ;yyy Hope this somewhat helps!
- RULE OF THIRDS (mokou):
- SOME 3D SHIT (toonimated:
- 3D Learning Resources (missmoocodes):
This is not coding related, I know, but gamedev-learning related enough to be here! I’ve been asked about learning resources for 3D modeling and tried to make a list of tutorials I could remember - I’m highlighting the ones I’ve tried myself but I’ve heard good things about all of these. This list is low poly focused but the knowledge can be applied for anything else.
I haven’t been doing this for long - I started learning 3D last July and have been ever since but as a 2D artist the technical side of it still overwhelms me a lot. I’ve gone nowhere near animation yet but I’ve been adventuring with low poly quite a lot (which you can check out in #GemuNoGemu, image above - I also put up assets pics in a Trello here as well as stuff on my website). I mainly use Maya (now Maya LT) but I’ve been trying to tackle Blender too. Here are some helpful goodies:Maya:
- I started learning Maya with this series of videos on youtube by Misterh3d. I watched through units 1-7 and it’s a pretty great introduction! Nicely paced, covers a bunch you gotta know.
- A series on Low poly for game assets using Maya 2015
Blender:
- Blender 3D - Noob to Pro: for the basics!
- And another Blender course for beginners
- The popular Secrets to Creating Low Poly Illustrations On Blender - great intro to making some low poly goodness
- Blender Cookie - CGCookie is a website that has a bunch of awesome tutorials (loads for free) on many softwares, including Unity. Take a look at this Low Poly Game Asset Creation tutorial.
- Some character creation tutorials by ward7299
- Bunch of really cool low poly tutorials here by Manuel Graphics!
- A Minecraft character modeling and texturing tutorial
All things 3D/low poly:
- Creating a low poly treasure island
- PigArt: rad speedart/timelapses of adorable looking low poly art, lots to learn from watching these
- Digital Tutors has loads of 3D modeling tutorials, some free some paid. Tried a few of those and they’re pretty cool!
Cool Misc stuff:
- Blender Cycles rendering introduction
- Creating flat colored low poly art. This is how I currently color all assets for Gemu (I used to color using materials or vertex colors before because I can’t stand UV unwrapping but this is a pretty easy alternative)
- Please do check the Polycount forum, so many cool references and useful info! Also do check their low poly thread
- There’s also reddit’s /low_poly
Study Files:
- Cocefi kindly uploaded a low poly model for download here
- You can download models on Sketchfab! Here are some popular low poly ones
- Lots of cool Cinema 4D project files for download here
- (I’ll share some Gemu stuff soon! Lemme know if you have any files you’d be willing to share )
Rad people making awesome 3D stuff:
- @PIXELATEDCROWN
- @turnislefthome
- @chickysprout
- @metkis
- @korigame
- @GarretRandell
- @IMPLODINGORACLE
- @ultrakurtzwelle
- @khalkeus3d
- @AckkStudios
- @q_dork
- @andmish
- @heatpenn
- @dicey
This is it for now! I know it’s short but I hope I can keep it growing - I’ll add more stuff to it as I find other tuts (let me know if you have any suggestions!).- I started learning Maya with this series of videos on youtube by Misterh3d. I watched through units 1-7 and it’s a pretty great introduction! Nicely paced, covers a bunch you gotta know.
- SKIN TONE CHART (shiroxix):
It is not the prettiest but here is a little chart I made of skin tones.
The idea is to eye-drop anywhere on the chart to get a unique skin tone instead of getting stuck in the loop of “white, tan, dark”.
- TEETH, BLOOD, AND DROOL (marshmallowmaurice):
- a humorous depiction of COLOR STUDIES (incidentalcomics):
- how to make plastic keychains (kaiami):
- [size=36]Tutorial: plastic keychains[/size]
I know a ton of you have been waiting for this one. Teaching you to make your own plastic keychains!
To start off, I think the biggest question everyone has is what I use to make them. I work with shrink film. You might be familiar with Shinky Dink brand shrink film as a kid. I use Grafix brand white inkjet shrink film. The inkjet kind is relatively pricey compared to the regular kind. If you’re using regular, I don’t recommend you stick it in your printer. Sharpie markers would be good for that.
Alright, now open up the file with the images that you’re working with. Make sure your images are a lot bigger than you want your finished product to be since they shrink significantly.
You’ll also want to lighten the opacity to about half. I go somewhere between 50-60%.
Now print your image out! I’ve found that it works best for me when I have it at the plain paper setting, and standard print quality.
Holepunch with a ¼" holepuncher BEFORE you shrink them. It’s so much more work to have to punch holes when your plastic is thick!
Cut out your design, leaving the amount of border you want.
Set them on a tray for convenience. An aluminum foil sheet works too, but I recommend cookie trays because they are easier and quicker to get out of the oven.
Preset heat. Your shrink film package will tell you what temperature to set it at, but I find that it isn’t always accurate for me. I generally set temperature to 350 degrees or so.
Put them in the oven. Remember to keep track of time! I leave them in for about a minute and a half.
After time is up they should be super small! Magic!
If your charms are not flat, put something heavy on it right out of the oven when they are still hot and malleable.
If you’d like to, you can seal them now. In my last two batches, I used clear topcoat nail polish. The problem with that is that I need between 3-5 coats of it, and it takes a while to dry. I’ve been experimenting with modpodge.
For lariats, you can use jump rings or lobster clasps.
Here is one that I made that wasn’t sealed. The finished texture after shrinking is a little bit rough. There’s nothing wrong with leaving them unsealed, but because they are inkjet printed, the colors wash right of without protection.
This is one that was sealed with modpodge. The colors become a little more vibrant and smooth and water resistant. Things often get stuck on when applying or drying so be careful.
These ones down here were sealed with clear nail polish. They come out shiny if you put enough coats, but the grainy texture will still be there.
Well, there ya go! Have fun making your own keychains!
