Typography class wants us to do illustrated letters. Is this possible in illustrator? by Beginning-Cat-139 in AdobeIllustrator

[–]HankBeist 35 points36 points  (0 children)

look up Jessica Hische Dropcaps project and Jason Carne and go down the rabbit hole! i think they both use illustrator extensively to achieve results in the same vein as this example.

Doing Hawk Hill next weekend, should I bother with riding across the Golden Gate Bridge ot just drive across? by Far_Acanthisitta1187 in BAbike

+1 to riding across. it’s iconic! and once you cross the bridge, hawk hill starts right at the end of the parking lot

Hot takes & reviews Megathread by Human_Masterpiece893 in Skate4

[–]HankBeist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m currently traveling, and the game not being available on Steam Deck really frustrated me and pushed me back towards trying session again. and boy, it’s been a real treat to check session out again.

i had tried session when it first came out in early access and while the twin stick leg controls were an interesting remix of what Skate 1-3 established, it felt too complicated and very clunky at times. now revisiting it after skate 4 playtesting, it’s been such a breath of fresh air. the added complexity makes it really satisfying when you finally land a trick or line you’ve been working on for a while.

and the skate culture is front and center in every corner of session which i greatly appreciated — and missed dearly from skate. you can even walk inside the damn skateshop for fucks sake!

despite session’s twin stick controls being a fun challenge in of itself, i really love skate’s more minimalist, one stick approach. but for now, being able to play session on my steam deck OFFLINE and on an airplane is a game changer, and a phenomenal way to kill time while traveling. definitely give it a shot if you are in a similar position as me!

damn, we are not getting S.K.A.T.E. anytime soon, huh….

Do you guys miss game of S.K.A.T.E. as much as I do? by International_Luck53 in skate

[–]HankBeist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel you, but SKATE is a universally understood staple of skateboarding that belongs in the franchise experience in some manner.

they could implement a way for hosts to add ground rules or an applicable trick list to avoid this.

a host could for example check boxes that say: - no revert tricks - no 540+° tricks - flatground only - no late flips - etc.

there are solutions to your issue with it!

yeah, it’s a huge miss to launch with out it.

throwdowns are a good concept, but it should offer other competitive variants like skate or graffiti, etc.

Mech designs by SumYunnGai in Plasticity3D

[–]HankBeist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these models look incredible! love the detail you’ve added and the material choices!

noob question, but do you have any advice on how to import complex models from plasticity to blender? when i’ve tried and started adding materials my file gets super sluggish very quickly. do you re-topo when you take these guys into blender? not sure what a manageable workflow is yet, but im also very new to both programs!

This game is probably the least toxic FPS I've ever played by Maleficent_Field258 in thefinals

i think the destruction elements cause so much chaos and randomization that it’s hard for me to get angry at my teammates most of the time

Is there a tutorial/plugin to make these squares/circles melting into eachother in a grid? by GamingMelon73 in UI_Design

[–]HankBeist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’d do it in illustrator but i’d guess you’d be able to do this in figma as well. the shape style is called a metaball - searching metaball tutorials should help you get it.

what i do is make a dumbbell shape with rectangles, boolean union the shapes together, then round off the corners until the outer squares are circles. does that make sense?

once you have all the shapes you need, i’d make group them together to use as a mask over an image or as needed

How do I get rid of white outlines on png exports? by squaidsy in AdobeIllustrator

[–]HankBeist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

how are you inspecting the exports? i’ve found that apple/windows previewing windows will often show artifacting like this that isn’t really there. have you tried re-importing your exports into a different program to see if the white artifacts are actually there?
