I knowwww I've been terrible about dA, BUT HERE I AM
Oh and I can totally understand that =w= deciding to go to art school was important for me too bc before that I wasn't really putting effort into improving or like, doing something different.
Im happy for youu

I WAS DOING TERRIBLE WITH DA, BUT ONE DAY I WAS LIKE "Y'KNOW WHAT? IM GONNA BE ACTIVE AF " AND HERE I AM. I CHECK DA MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY NOW *imnotaddictedshhh*
Yeah! You totally get it!
I havent had much time with 2D art, since I go to a 3D art school unfortunately. I can only hope that I am able to get enough time to doodle every now and then OTL

NadeRegen In reply to thejaguar9 [2014-02-26 19:48:36 +0000 UTC]
hah smart move, I keep trying to get back into it but it seems commenting is less popular as it used to be?
Ngl im mostly stuck to tumblr during my days but...
Ahhh yes, 3d art. So is it like, physical 3d art or y'know, CG?

thejaguar9 In reply to NadeRegen [2014-02-26 19:57:30 +0000 UTC]
no i agree. No one comments. I go around my deviations, and I sometimes see AMAZING pieces with like no comments. S'kinda sad. I know that a lot of artists are moving onto weebly. Another thing that is super discouraging is a lot of my watchers are ded (inactive ded OTL), so it feels as if i just joined the site hahah;;;
I used to use Tumblr, but I got REAL bad with my addiction to it. I stopped eating and I couldnt stop reblogging. I had to cut myself off cold turkey, cuz I knew it was super unhealthy. So I use it if someone links me to something, but I wont actively check it.
naw, it's all digital. So like modeling on computer programs, and animating these models. etc
So, it's CG, ahhaha

NadeRegen In reply to thejaguar9 [2014-02-26 21:42:06 +0000 UTC]
Right I thought I'd come back to dA bc I can't find artists on tumblr and like
NOBODY IS HERE ANYMORE whooooops
omg that's a good decision then most def.
Do you have anything to show? I'm curious! (I also had a lot of 3d courses in college hence my interest, ahah)

haha yeah same - well it can be fun if there's at least some people around so I'll just go with it
They're not that bad at all! I mean I don't know how the geometry's ofc, but they all look pretty good imo =w= esp the cafe thingie is real nice
ALSO THE TERROR OF UNREAL ENGINE WHY is this still happening WHY

IM GLAD YOU'RE STILL ON THIS SITE ; w ;
Thanks! Im glad you like them! :'D I stayed up for 3-4 days straight to finish that (the cafe) project *sob*
I'll probably be using unreal for the majority of my life.... *looks off into the distance*
All of my sculpts were done via Zbrush.

NadeRegen In reply to thejaguar9 [2014-03-07 15:15:25 +0000 UTC]
I can only imagine, I've definitely been part of the late night crying over 3d-models crowd, ahaha
I mean, will you be though? I know certain companies still use the unreal engine, but stuff like unity etc seems to be preferred by a lot of others? Maybe I've just been brainwashed because I've used Unity at my old job...
I should try out Zbrush sometime, it seems so great! On the other hand.... yeaaaaahaaaha

thejaguar9 In reply to NadeRegen [2014-03-07 17:09:16 +0000 UTC]
Wait, you've done some 3D stuff??
Mind if I have a gander at it?? : D
Unreal and Unity have similar interfaces, so it wouldnt take much time for me to get used to it tbh. Unity and Unreal are used the most, and then Cry engine is used for specific companies only. They've been trying to get people to join the Cry engine bandwagon, it's coming along though... but very slowly!
YEAH! It costs money... Unless you know the internet REAAAAL well.
I'm currently in a class that's like 70% Zbrush 30% Maya.
AGC... Advance Game Characters OTL
i hope im able to do moderately at this class *sobs uncontrollably*
and I also have to do my art test by Saturday.
I'm going in for VFX, but there is like... NO material on the internet to help me out... All the good sources cost... at the minimum $40. I DONT HAVE A JOB. I CANT AFFORD THAT
My school didnt teach VFX, but I hear that they will very soon. TOO LATE FOR ME THOUGH Q__Q
So yeah. I am like "HOW TO VFX IN UDK PL0X" *sighhh*

NadeRegen In reply to thejaguar9 [2014-03-10 22:23:43 +0000 UTC]
Yeah I did! My school also mostly offered 3d - I'm so out of it now though OTL
I tried to find some stuff back and here's what I fouund
i10.photobucket.com/albums/a13… terrible posing wow, but it's... like modeled + then sculpted and imported back to maya with normal maps and it's rigged entirely and has blend shapes for facial expressions and stuff which you can't see but I REMEMBER WHEN I DIED OVER THIS
i10.photobucket.com/albums/a13… HALF BAKED TRICERATOPS and by half baked I mean half sculpted oops
i10.photobucket.com/albums/a13… < did only the dandelions in this bc I worked on it with a friend, it's procedural tho OTL
SOUNDS LIKe a good class tho!! exciting
also wow I hope you did well D :
and I hardly know about VFX either ngl, although I've had trouble just getting textures to move in UDK like goddammit that interface did not want me to be able to do ANYTHING

thejaguar9 In reply to NadeRegen [2014-03-10 22:31:30 +0000 UTC]
OMG Your work <3 <3 <3 i love it!!
When I finish my assignment this month, i'll look into showing you what I made UwU
I finished my art test for VFX, but i dont have a recording of it... So if you want the .UPK file, I can totally send it to you... somehow BD so you can see what I did at least.
im in love with that dandelion one! So pretty! AND THAT BLOOM
Also, that triceratops looks like it's on the verge to be on epic proportions omg *__*
and holy cow, I wish I could see a vid of that guys facial expressions, cuz that sounds really impressive!!
I can maneuver in UDK pretty awesomely IMO, but that's probably cuz i learned how to use it first?
Particles on the other hand... *sobs intensely*
on a side note:
A friend has me in a project, and it involves unity..
WHELP. TIME FOR SOME MORE LEARNIN'

NadeRegen In reply to thejaguar9 [2014-03-12 21:02:55 +0000 UTC]
yess do eet.
Also hmm I don't think I can open a UPK file since I don't have UDK on here anymore...
Thanks! I'm still p happy with that dandelion one like I can't believe I managed to make a dandelion procedurally let alone one that actually looks like one, lmao.
I wish I could show you what they're like but mudbox hates me and apparently the version I have rn can't open these old files. RUDE.
See this is why I hate computers CAN'T OPEN ANYTHING if you're out of touch for a sec, lmao.
lmao isn't that always the way? I mean once I got the hang of it a little the whole building blocks thing was pretty simple - but stuff like making textures move and changing their colours and etc was just... difficult.
(I didn't really get enough time to properly learn it, I'm sure once you get THAT it'll be fine too, lmao)
particles, same thing just. YIKES.
But I think like, when I was working without Houdini on those dandelions, I thought it was really hard, but once I put in enough hours the way I thought about approaching problems in it just changed and I could do stuff in five minutes that'd have taken me an hour at least when I'd just started. I guess that's just always gonna be the case, including your UDK particles. XD
IT IS TIME GOOD LUCK YOU CAN DO THE THING
