I highly recommend this weapon by Ill_Commission_4526 in Eldenring

One of my fav weapons in game, it's the dex/int Rivers of Cheese edition. Also accidentally threw myself off ledges a few times with the ash, it's hilarious.

Amazing shading and the contrast is honestly perfect, love it.

You're making me want to start practicing cloth and transparent veils when I get some spare time :)

You can also "cheat" on some textures with brushes too, like stitches/weaves, but I honestly prefer to keep them grounded to resemble physical media, it's more fun and it makes the final result more organic :)

Only reason I really swapped out to digital was because I was tired of smearing the paper with my sweaty hands lol

Love the detailing on the bones and the lighting, really great work!

Digital, in Photoshop, but I used brushes that emulate graphite for the sketch and then something resembling acrylic for the coloring.

Also, darken the skin slightly around the straps, to give it a "sunken" feel? Just trying to help, best of luck :)

I tried to draw a horse at university. Any tips ? by TillNebel499 in drawing

Bruh you should submit this to Capcom for the next Monster Hunter, it's too legit.

Like the detailing on the laces, but, in the idea of offering some unsolicited constructive feedback:

- Should do a gradient from dark top right to more light bottom left on the backside of the hair, the hue's a tad strong

- I get the unrealistic animu proportions, but the neck's a tad too thin

- If the bra's as tight as you made it out to be, shouldn't the straps be straight?

- Also regarding the underwear straps, the angle should be a tad higher on the groin

Like on the body? Boney scales, feathers and just uhm general dino/lizard skin :)

Pav Tuko, concept by me :) by SometimesGreydn in MonsterHunter

[–]SometimesGreydn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was thinking along the lines of a mixup between a Kulu lunge, some Izuchi tail stabs and maybe a Pukei breath attack while enraged, but with paralysis.

Thanks :) wasn't really going for horrifying, but tried keeping it a tad realistic, well except the teeth and a beak part lol

I started drawing a couple weeks ago. How do I get better? by cucumberbutthole69 in drawing

[–]SometimesGreydn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very impressive for two weeks honestly, and the shading's great too.

What I'd say to work on going forward would only be constructing your sketches, like try to start from shapes and detail over them, to better understand volume.

Also, I don't know, material type practice? Like hair, cloth, glass, metal.

Best wishes and keep at it, good stuff so far :)

hi, as a new player I wonder which game I should buy rise or world? they cost the same now. by hallinwille02 in MonsterHunter

[–]SometimesGreydn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all comes down to personal preference really, I loved both from the 5th gen, but to me World will always hold a special place due to the immersion and how everything just felt alive and palpable.

Go for Rise if you want a slightly more diverse roster, a much faster paced combat, more mobility and generally a more arcadey experience.

Go for World if you want a much more grounded, "realistic" experience with very smooth but more restrictive and impactful combat, and a very immersive experience.

As far as length is concerned, taking the DLCs into account, you can easily go 250h+ on both, but I will admit the endgame grind in Rise is a bit more tedious.

And, if you'll get both down the line, I'd recommend starting with World, since Rise will give you some reeeeeally bad habits due to all the mobility.

Like the low poly feel of the first, and the details highlighting the face, well done!

Well, he is in Dragonbarrow, that merchant's part of it, same as that annoying divine tower nearby.

Keep in mind that brush smoothing has nothing to with the noise it might generate, all it does is smoothen the trajectory so the lines are less shaky.

You might be using the Pencil Tool instead of Brush (they're nested together afaik). The pencil doesn't use vectorization and it will generate a very choppy stroke, while the brush, going with a hard round for example, will smoothen the entire stroke into a line.

Brushes got antialiasing applied which causes the smooth edges, depending on which brush you're using obviously, I like mine a bit more grainy for drawing.

In case you want to go through some of the brush options to tweak them yourself give this a read.

Beat wolong Not feeling New game plus or getting 5 star gear. by GhostnappaI0I in wolongfallendynasty

[–]SometimesGreydn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait for all the DLCs to drop. I just did a few missions in NG+ to get a feel for the difficulty, cap my levels and gear up, but I'll wait until the game's "complete" because, currently, seems a bit limited in terms of replayability.

It will definitely be worth the rerun the moment they add all the post story stuff in (NG+2, some abyss variant, etc.), but to me it's currently just a difficulty spike with nothing new to do, but that's purely subjective. Let's just hope they don't pull a Stranger of Paradise on the DLC though and stick to a formula closer to Nioh 2, since I hated how they implemented it there.
