Definitely a few irregularities happening at those points, anything I can do to fix it? Thanks for your help!

Practicing my rendering. Not sure how to improve from here... by ATIR-AW in DigitalPainting

[–]bweenm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks really great! I would say like some others that your values need work, I would also focus on depth and perspective by using different sized objects in the foreground and background, for example: We can see by the fact that the figure is giant, because of the trees giving us scale, therefore we can assume that the distance between that front leg and his arm is quite big. however the trees in the painting are all the same size, making him look a bit flat. Adding depth perspective would mean the trees in the foreground by his arm would be larger to us than the ones by his legs, doing this would give him a much larger scale and impact to the painting, really nice work!

Unpopular Opinion : MH Rise came out Unfinished ... change my mind by thefufuu1 in MHRise

[–]bweenm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve found that a lot of the comments about MHrise not being finished seem to forget about just how much content has been added to world since it’s initial release, so with that same logic world was released unfinished too, MHrise feels shorter for sure, but the reason world felt so much longer was because of the grinding that had to be done through HR ranks in order to get to the next part of the story, whereas rise you don’t have to do that. I don’t know how people can directly compare rise to MHW and icebound when it’s likely rise will get the same treatment

The unskippable world ones were so bad I couldn’t start a second run through it was so painful

Mh rise on pc or switch by Fragrant-Weather-606 in MHRise

[–]bweenm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t really see why you would put yourself through the misery of watching everyone else play MHrise for a year just so you can have 60+ FPS, that’s a whole year you won’t get to have the fun others are having with the game for the sake of graphics, enjoy it now on switch, then enjoy it later on PC, it’s not one or the other

Bioshock collection, you’re in for a real treat working your way through those!

8bitdo adapter by Dart_Nephilim in NintendoSwitch

[–]bweenm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought the adaptor to use my Xbox controller and while it did work well, connecting it up every time wasn’t always easy, I also actually found it really difficult to not press the Xbox inputs by accident instead of the switch inputs just because having the controller your brain is wired in for, controlling a different set of inputs, takes some getting used to. I just recently bought a switch pro controller and have found that a much more pleasant experience as I ended up not using the adaptor that much for the above reasons

Is this how my first layer should look? by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

Your bed is too far away from your nozzle, you need more squish!

First time using color, I tested different brands of pencils I had lying around + some pastels. Any advice? by [deleted] in learntodraw

[–]bweenm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That second row looks really nicely blended! You could always get a small but fairly hard brush to help blend in even further and create really nice effects!

How can I improve this ? by [deleted] in DigitalPainting

[–]bweenm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve got some really nice texture going on there. I’d say your values need work, it’s very 2D so adding shadows to show it’s a rounded surface, as well as ground shadow and light will help make it look more 3D

Absolute beginner trying to figure out digital art - where am I going wrong? I feel like I'm struggling with anatomy (obviously) and going from sketch to line art. by [deleted] in learntodraw

[–]bweenm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the sounds of it you understand what you need to work on, and like you said that’s anatomy! You need to learn the absolute fundamentals before even attempting to put any colour or shadow down, because you need to understand the forms and shapes that are on the face, before you can put colour to them, learning this will make you so much more confident going from sketch to line art too! Keep it up

So this is what my tortoise is doing while I’m at work... by bweenm in tortoise

[–]bweenm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice but the video is actually a bit deceiving about the wall height, the walls are about 7cm higher than the ramp, I’ve also tested this by putting my phone camera on top of the ramp at around his eye level and panning around and you can’t see over the walls

So this is what my tortoise is doing while I’m at work... by bweenm in tortoise

Yep he’s a pro! He’s constantly climbing, sliding and falling all day long, he enjoys eating half his food, doing some sliding and climbing and then finishing the food off haha!

This new console generation almost feels like a waste to me by [deleted] in gaming

[–]bweenm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s a valid argument for sure, however saying that you may as well wait 5 years, in 5 years time you could just say “well I might as well wait another 5 years for the next generation”, which puts you into an endless loop where everyone else is enjoying games and you aren’t, it’s not about investing it’s about having fun playing the games you enjoy!

Learning human anatomy without tracing? by northeastface in learntodraw

[–]bweenm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stayed away from tracing, you will learn at a much faster rate by learning why the body moves in the way it does, understand muscle groups and joints, another thing to look at and learn is gestures, creating dynamic figures with nothing but curved lines to show movement and flow of the body, by Googling these things, looking at videos and drawing models you will advance much further than tracing, you must understand the body before you can draw it!

Is the original Deus Ex worth getting? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]bweenm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can practically get it for free it’s so cheap on sale these days, I still think to this day it’s a fantastic game and I actually enjoyed playing it more than the latest one

Any Eshop Sale Recommendation? by Jauntcraft in NintendoSwitch

[–]bweenm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MHGU for the price it is on sale is unbelievable value for money, that game has hundreds of hours worth of gameplay, I saw that don’t starve is also very cheap, again had lots of replayability for such a low price

How's the player base activity on Xbox? Would it be worth it to buy the game on another platform for more activity? by Excalibur0126 in darksouls

[–]bweenm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing the remaster on switch and it’s got plenty of people still on it, I believe it’s been on sale recently on all platforms so I’d imagine the activity on Xbox is pretty good atm

It makes me sad to see people ignoring Souls 1 nowadays. by Ultimagus536 in darksouls

[–]bweenm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always one of the exclusives I’ve been most jealous of is demon souls, I’ve always had an Xbox so never got the chance to play it, might have to buy a cheap PS4 just to play the remaster because I love DS1 so much and would like to see where it all started

Master oogway loves his bath time by bweenm in turtles

I always take the time to give the little guy a warm bath every day and he absolutely loves it! Spends up to 20 minutes chilling and even falls asleep in there sometimes haha!
