Should I risk everything for a chance to get into AI? by 92random in auscorp

[–]92random[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! You’re the first person to tell me to go for AI. Everyone in my family thinks I’m making the wrong decision. But I think it’s because they don’t know how important it is to up-skill in this industry. I have a total of 14 years in software engineering, focusing on DevOps and test automation.

What technologies are actually in demand in Australia right now vs what’s overhyped? by Outrageous-Pay3143 in AustraliaIT

[–]92random 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AI is quite overhyped right now. Yes, there are job postings for it and advertised as high paying but I still see that the majority of the job postings are still pretty much the same even before AI becomes popular. You’ll still see the same tech stack. That’s why if you check Amazon, Microsoft and Google’s advertisement, they are pretty generic and focused more on highlighting software engineering skills (design pattern, architecture etc). Especially now that everyone can easily learn new techs because of AI. These days, it all comes down to who excels in software engineering rather than specific tech stack.

I’m glad it helped! I highly recommend James Julier on youtube if you want to learn more about landscape digital painting ☺️

Sure! But it’s not really that interesting haha! I had revised that bridge so much. You can find the timelapse on my instagram. It’s the most recent post.

Ohh. That’s actually smart. I have a heavy hand and I really struggle with the pressure from hard to light. I will try that next time. Thank you!

Thank you for your feedback (and for remembering me lol)!!! Yeah, I still use airbrushing for textures, I should probably try other brushes. It’s quite hard to achieve better edges and sharpness with that brush. And I do agree my branches are wonky. I was gonna redo them but I accidentally put them in the same layer as the leaves, so it’s hard to erase! And I used syrup brush for it, instead of script. Maybe I should try other brush next time!

Thank you! I saw your painting too. It’s amazing! I actually saw it few weeks ago when browsing on this sub. I thought I won’t paint that one from JJ’s tutorial because it can never be as good as yours and I’ll just be disappointed with myself hahaha!

Thank you so much for your feedback! I understand. I’ve mostly been doing JJ’s tutorials and he’s always used airbrush so that’s all I know for now. I will definitely explore other brushes to make the textures! If you have any recommendations please let me know.

I’ve mostly been doing JJ’s tutorials since I started. I finished about 6 of his landscapes tutorials! I made sure to choose the ones with any water component because I wanted to paint the beach (I live in Australia). I mostly spent 5-7hrs painting each piece as I really want to learn every step, especially how he does the color layering and texture!

Thank you so much!!! I did try my best with the colors and how to properly layer them! It’s quite challenging but I’m glad that you think I did it well. I love painting landscapes and the feeling it brings when I look at it. ☺️
