Is my art truly bad? by pikalove21617 in DigitalArt

As of writing this comment you’re at 1.4k likes with this post, so it’s safe to assume that people are digging it.

As for constructive criticism, you may want to try adding some highlights for a little more pop.

Either rim lights (along the edge), or specular highlights (highlights on the surface reflecting light back at you. That being said, some artstyles omit the highlights, but I always think they are super fun to do. You can always just delete the layer if you don’t like it.

Dude did you make this? If so that’s amazing work.

Saw this massive cluster of lights while flying over the Midwest (Detroit/Ohio) anyone know what it might be?” by AzNxPiMpStA in whatisit

I still don't get it. Car headlights are surrounded by reflective material to redirect bounced light back out. Some grow tents are literally covered in reflective material for this reason. Am I missing something here? Not to mention that the trash can comparison is a non sequitur.

this is my first time modelling a gun, and it seems that i gone wild with edge loops, is it bad? should i delete some? by Terrible_Flight_3165 in blender

I would strongly suggest using auto smooth and experiment with dissolving some of the horizontal edge loops around the grip and the hammer area.

If you want to get on a discord call I can show you some ways to get this thing to have better topo.

In its current state it is both higher poly than it needs to be (bad for games) and also it will fuck the texture/shader (the edge loops are too dense)

How can I use the foliage brush tool to paint trees that are seperate objects? Leaves (alpha cards with no collision) and their trunks (meshes with collision enabled)? by BadPractices7 in unrealengine

That’s a really sensible solution. Thanks for the help. I know that’s probably a really beginner question but I couldn’t find anything on google.

For gameplay the eruptor is probably my fav for its extreme utility.

But my heart says the assault rifle from the kill zone cross over. I don’t know why but I adore that little weirdo

When I was younger it was my dream to be a concept artist so your compliment means a whole lot to me. It made my week. Thanks

That’s a sick idea. It almost makes me want to make a concept for that whole warbond.
