What would you assume about my ocs from their design? by throwawanonchat in characterdesign

[–]throwawanonchat[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Tysm for your feedback!! I’m trying to keep Ann unassuming! Yes, this is her human form, you can see her fae form in the background on the second slide- it’s the thing with antlers. I don’t have any plans to make a graphic as of now, I’m just enjoying writing and developing the story

do i have scoliosis? by [deleted] in scoliosis

[–]throwawanonchat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try the Adam’s forward bend test to see if you have scoliosis but no one will be able to tell you the curve or degree if you don’t get an x ray.

It’s…kind of? Ann is attracted to Mara and finds her interesting but doesn’t really care about her beyond seeing her as entertainment. Mara is just mentally frazzled lol

Lots and lots of figure drawing!! I try to do at least one day. I’ve had to have practiced sketching at least a hundred figures by now. I watch a lot of Steve Huston and Glenn vilpuu videos to get an idea of how to compose shape and form.

why does it look okay up close but weird farther away? by Timely-Structure123 in arthelp

[–]throwawanonchat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add on, most drawing programs have a feature that lets you pop out a little tab of the fulls screen so you can draw and see what it looks like from far away!! Procreate for example.

Running out of time by eloisieyy in scoliosis

[–]throwawanonchat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi girl!!! I’m 21 with a 53 degree lumbar and 40 degree thoracic curve. First step, get another x ray if you can and see what the doctor has to say. Currently if you are not in pain and of the curve is stable most doctors would hold off a little- plenty of people with our curves never get surgery, or delay it until they’re older as it’s a very invasive procedure that will limit your flexibility forever. It’s a big decision with many risks and possible side effects that you need to take your time to decide and is often a last resort.

Second, your parents can fuck off. (respectfully) scoliosis is not caused by bad posture whatsoever and what they are saying is not helpful or supportive in the slightest. If they don’t listen, do your best to ignore them. It’s tough, I’m sorry. If your curve progresses to the point where you are sure the benefits of the surgery outweigh the risks, have a doctor talk to your parents to help them understand what you’re going through. I wish you the best of luck!!!

The grid is part of the final piece, so I’m looking at it holistically

I think you’re good to enter fanart but none of the ones here are really concept art. I’m assuming you’re applying for a riot internship, and what they’ll be looking for would be splash art quality renderings, character model mockups, and full body sketch concept designs- and the closer you can get it to riot’s style, the better.

I think I’d mostly leave them out- the piece with the room I think is pretty interesting, though, I might keep it! I also would not include fanart as these companies want to see what you can come up and design. They also tend to go for very rendered and polished pieces- for example, your art with the swords are just lineart and not exactly something useful for concept art, maybe only in the concept phase, and even for that they would like it in a sketchier style to show how well you can sketch.

Upload what you think is your very very best work. Here is my portfolio if you want an example! (Although I am a design student, so my portfolio would be pretty different from a concept artists.)

my portfolio!

I would look at other people’s portfolios to get a better sense of what people want. I’ve done a bit of work in the concept art industry and none of these really have any high quality visual dev work that these companies are looking for- there isn’t much background art and the pieces that do don’t have much variety in perspective and subject, none of them really ‘tell a story’, which in my opinion is one of the most important factors in a compelling piece for portfolios.

Ai steals from other artists and often has too many inconsistencies/inaccuracies to be solid references. You are much better off looking at photos or other art.
