The Blog is here 😄

[woven yew]

Let the creative juices flow

[tidal trench]

it just shows the thought process that I started with the level design.

less of a what did I do, and more of how'd I done and practice in that area

if you ask what part of it is art, it's the pictures that I took ofcourse

[summer field]

Random sketch

[deep swallow]

@summer field nopan?

[summer field]

[odd berry]

Dang. I gotta learn how to draw like that

[pliant spindle]

I'm very happy to see this chat thriving.

[atomic latch]

@pliant spindle it worked

[pliant spindle]

@summer field Very nice sketch. (although her left arm seems a tad longer than the right one. Red dots help the comparisson)

[high ledge]

I love that we have a channel for this stuff. Cool things going on already!

[pulsar grail]

Where's Mah Tisse?

[high ledge]

I wanna see a piece so small that the easel is made of toothpicks.

[pliant spindle]

What I'm looking forward is the next pun that will come up with the next tiny painter XD

[pulsar grail]

We need Mo Net(s)!

FYI I don't make the easels nor the canvasses, I just painted them

[plucky iris]

@pulsar grail Please tell me you do this as a career?

Art and the like.

[pulsar grail]

Design: yes (ish). Art: no

[plucky iris]

Well, you're great.

Some of the stuff you do I'd pay for. Good work 👍

[pulsar grail]

[summer field]

Thanks for the feedback HB o7

[tiny cypress]

If the God likes the Art then we all like the Art

Besides that who doesnt likes the art?

[teal lichen]

might aswell rename this channel into "Freerk's workshop"

[marsh eagle]

[silk fulcrum]

gamma what the fuck has your name become

it got dirt all over it

[odd berry]

This is so old

I didnt post this here before did I?

Regardless, this is an exceptionally simple piece made in paintSai. Story is I wanted a dark and slightly ominous desktop background followed with a wee bit of lighting. This was the result

Wait this is from January of 2017, how did-

[tardy coral]

Wow that's really great

Very minimalistic, but powerful... and useful

[solar fiber]

Can you draw krazy i wanna see your art

[pliant spindle]

[atomic latch]

For ARMA 3

[deep swallow]

[tardy coral]

Dude thats crazy

[solar fiber]

❤

[atomic latch]

Just realized it looks like a Type 99

[solar fiber]

I'm loving these kommisar

[tardy coral]

I really wish I could go back in time, take all the time I spent learning how to paint, and pour it all into 3D modelling...

[atomic latch]

@deep swallow haha should show him the player models xd

[tardy coral]

Like.... why spend $400 on little plastic figures if you can just design and print them

[atomic latch]

Yeah they alrdy got the Death Korps 40k player models in Arma now

[solar fiber]

I had a paper mache mask until my dog ate it 😭

[solar fiber]

Made it in like 6th grade

[deep swallow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2RYDM7FQqA&feature=youtu.be

[atomic latch]

I still can't believe they are in ARMA

It looks real

[tardy coral]

lol... now im tripping down memory lane in my old photos. Here's my fiance wearing the jedi costume I made.... that's kind of art.

[atomic latch]

[solar fiber]

Oh

[tardy coral]

Getting married next year

[solar fiber]

Also it's nice

@tardy coral Your wife is an ewok

[solar fiber]

Hey

[tardy coral]

LOL

[atomic latch]

woah

[nimble void]

lol

[solar fiber]

Ewoks are great 👌

[tardy coral]

We got a corgi because of its short legs. It was her spirit animal

[deep swallow]

@timber beacon fiancee, also #general-discussion

[tidal trench]

oof

[crude pilot]

Oof

Weird

[pliant spindle]

HB is here. Your art is awesome. I love miniatures!

[solar fiber]

Yes

I summoned thy lord

Praise

[pliant spindle]

Also, pretty cool costume, @tardy coral. did you make the lightsaber as well?

[tardy coral]

LOL no... no I didnt 😦

It took me like 30H and waaay too much money to make the costume, but it was worth it because I learned how to sew

[solar fiber]

👌

It's great

[deep swallow]

@atomic latch enjoy 82DK in arma 3 on next update, alongside the plasmagun. (there's a DKOK version as well)

[tardy coral]

I ended up redoing it like 8 times with different bedsheets I bought from value village and it still ended up costing like $150

[high ledge]

hm

[deep swallow]

old model from when I first started.

[solar fiber]

@deep swallow i wanna know if space marines?

[pliant spindle]

hahaha. I know what you mean.
One of the few times I cosplayed with some friends of mine, we spent waaaaaaay too much time making the costumes.
(but in my case, they looked ridiculous)

[tardy coral]

LOL so did I. Dont worry

[tidal trench]

HB i ncosplay?????

PICS

[deep swallow]

@solar fiber around 12 months. I can confirm that at lease

[tidal trench]

PICS OR FAKE NEWS

[solar fiber]

@pliant spindle do you have pic 🤔

@deep swallow that's it I'm downloading

[odd berry]

@deep swallow honestly that machinegun model you posted was a long ago idea for adding a Foxhole LMG or even an assault rifle before the Storm Rifle came

[deep swallow]

it's not there yet, but in 12 months from now

[odd berry]

Regardless, really good modelling!

[deep swallow]

we're working on the animations for the lore-correct space marine @solar fiber

[pliant spindle]

I don't have it digitally.... it's from a long time ago, hahahaha

[tidal trench]

[solar fiber]

Yes kommisar I will download the mod soontm

@tidal trench Your fake news if you don't show me art

[deep swallow]

@tidal trench name your meshes like this for the hi poly sculpt

[tidal trench]

yeah, I was thought about naming conventionis.

its a pretty standard procedure in all parts of the industry

[wintry cedar]

tfw you wants post "Remember - no meme" meme, but it's not allowed

[tidal trench]

though I dont know how people do a high poly, and then make a low poly version.

[deep swallow]

naming for the low poly

[tidal trench]

do they just clean it

or do they do it from the ground up

[deep swallow]

a bit of both

[tidal trench]

i see.

so for the 3D modelling aspect, it's all dissected into diff parts solely for the purpose of baking, and texturing?

[solar fiber]

I tried using blender

I made a flaming monkey skull

[tidal trench]

cos Im not sure how I feel about getting 20 separate models in one scene....that's like 20 drawcalls

i'm probably gonna headback to Maya, and start combining the objects that are static / have no player interaction.

once all the texture and baking procedure's done

I could be wrong tho

[deep swallow]

the objects for my gate

the low poly result

[olive cove]

I never really finished this, but thought I could share it

I'm not the best at environmental stuff or backgrounds

[deep swallow]

an old stuff from a day or two after death stranding trailer 2 arrived.

[remote lynx]

Have one or two unfinished artworks too, which I really finish sometime

[pulsar grail]

@olive cove I like that one: For the background maybe some more contrasting colors to make the foreground "pop" (Especially the building and the dunes are pretty similar)

@odd berry : Wow, that's a really nice style man!

[loud walrus]

Looks good

👍🏽

@mellow talon dat intro tho

[mellow talon]

It says swag though

[timber beacon]

What is this, 2003?

[mellow talon]

i mean fuck yes

It was cause we were a group channel and we each had a call sign/badge like that

[timber beacon]

I'm disappointed you didn't go to the candy store.

[mellow talon]

Do I look like I need candy?

Don't answer that.

[timber beacon]

[tidal trench]

lol sunchips

#general-discussion @steep laurel

[high ledge]

I think i made that after last war

[feral prairie]

Ok this seems to be the rigth place

[solar fiber]

you right

[feral prairie]

I just need some colonial symbol then this will be the official waifu

[crude pilot]

@feral prairie Nein do not defile mika with your collie logo

Also you draw this? Sweet

[feral prairie]

Ja

[crude pilot]

Why you apply gray shade under her eyes thou?

[feral prairie]

Is that a problem tho?

Im new to drawing art style like thid

[crude pilot]

If you need symbols

Seems weird to me, usually it's either pink or cream white

[feral prairie]

Thanks lad👍

In my imagination

Those grey represent dust from urban places

[crude pilot]

Ah that's ok then

[bleak sandal]

Connected World Conquest

[tidal trench]

👌

I actually did this as well

except I used foxhole tactic's resources.

[solar fiber]

[tidal trench]

so it included the resource nodes as well

[solar fiber]

[bleak sandal]

@tidal trench foxhole tactic?

[tidal trench]

yeah,

too bad it has a lot of limitations

[bleak sandal]

no like what's that @tidal trench

[tidal trench]

its where I usually strategize with FFL

like an online drawing map

one sec.

[stuck crown]

@deep swallow the gun is looking good!!

[atomic latch]

@stuck crown u found the art place 😄

now post your art

[tidal trench]

he's given a sample of his workflow as well

[stuck crown]

my art is foxhole. you've seen it

also this channel looks like "fart-discussion" at times and it makes me smile

[tidal trench]

[solar fiber]

I see you enjoy farts adam

[tidal trench]

im just gonna...pin that.

[crude pilot]

Rip

[wind night]

I already saved it as well Acq

[hazy zenith]

XD

[tidal trench]

good to know, i guess

[solar fiber]

@wind night who posted first

So your late 👌

[wind night]

Cool

Give me one reason to care

[solar fiber]

Nop

[wind night]

[torpid fjord]

Good answer Adam lol

[trim vessel]

MY friend made this for me.^

Which is my Profile Picture.

Back when I mained logi.

[torpid fjord]

[trim vessel]

Which is why it has all the Gears and the Wrench.

,but I was thinking of updating my clan name, and the image.,

[pine stratus]

Anybody knows what software is good to make a texture for a 3d art? I am planning to use my photoshop, but is there any other good ones to use out there? Preferrably easy, cos i’m new to making textures

[tidal trench]

substance.

both designer and painter 😄

[pine stratus]

Substance?

Is there a free download link or does it has to be purchased?

(I’m using blender to make 3d)

[tidal trench]

it's not free, but there's a student license you can get.

[pine stratus]

Ah, i see

[tidal trench]

there's also a month free trial if you like to try it out

[pine stratus]

So it’s easy to use?

[tidal trench]

well for me, its a little challenging as Im also new myself.

[pine stratus]

Sweet, i’ll check it out

[tidal trench]

theres also a level of techinicality and a few terminologies you also need to know and understand a s well.

kommisar saiz it's easy when you get the hang of it

Adam also has a workflow he follows to this date.

it's in the pinned messages.

[pine stratus]

Thanks a lot ^^ @tidal trench

I mostly use SAI for digital painting and photoshop for touching it up, but lately i’m just thinking if there’s other alternatives to make textures

I’m working on an HMG model, got the shape nailed already sans the animation (yes, i haven’t studied how to animate 3d)

[tidal trench]

really dpends on how you wanna meet your project needs imo

3D Animation is a pain 😄

hahahaha

one of the reasons why I like environment art.

if you ask me, Im trying to determine the best workflow that I should do

with a basic 3d asset.

[deep swallow]

weapon animation is fairly easy

like rotating bolt, etc

just use a lot of bones and proxy

@pine stratus @tidal trench I used to texture in photoshop, but then i found substance painter, which makes it faster. If you're not doing something realistic, do it in photoshop, if you're doing something more realistic, do it in substance.

[tidal trench]

^pretty much

hand painting textures are great with photoshop

i think having a sense of realism also helps

if you use substance painter with it

but that really depends

[pine stratus]

I guess i really should check that out

[tidal trench]

most of the game dev industry has been intigrating substance workflow into their pipeline

it works wonders.

by most, i mean its starting to become the most recommended tool

[pine stratus]

^the WIP HMG i've been talking abt

Still barebones

[wind night]

@pine stratus The barrel looks a bit big for a heavy machine gun

[atomic latch]

@deep swallow @tidal trench ^

[pine stratus]

It's based on maxim lol

*lewis

The barrel is based on lewis, so it got a big shroud

The real barrel is not that big, it's just the shadow that made it look big

[tidal trench]

[tidal trench]

looks good

you got it's UVs worked on?

[pine stratus]

Lighting? not yet

Haven't got the hang of it yet lol

I'm new to 3d

[tidal trench]

oh i mean, the UV Mapping.

[pine stratus]

Time to get back to the book again cos i don't know anything about that

[tidal trench]

lol

uhhh

to explain it in one picture

[pine stratus]

Ooooh

[tidal trench]

best of luck xD

that's where I usually take a lot of time 😄

[pine stratus]

Yeah I haven't reached that part of the book

Welp

I guess i know how i will spend my holiday hahaha

[tidal trench]

dont worry, It's super fun

[pine stratus]

Good thing you warned me about it

I don't know what'll happen if i don't make it

I'm learning new things thanks to you guys @tidal trench @deep swallow

[tidal trench]

my course thought me enough

[deep swallow]

looks pretty good. How long did it took you to do the piece until the current iteration? @pine stratus

@pine stratus by the way, if you want to help out with my 40k arma mod, I can do some bits of mentoring.

[olive cove]

made this with 4 maps I made in inkarnate

[wind night]

Nice

[atomic latch]

reminds me of Mount and Blade for some reason

[olive cove]

Didn't make it for anything specific, but thought it'd make for a cool d&d map at some point

[wind night]

Maybe because it follows the general pattern Darkling

Also lercas

We need your help holding the wardens out of northwatch for 4 hours

[olive cove]

I'm gonna go to sleep right now

It's about to be 3 AM

#foxhole-discussion

[wind night]

REE

[atomic latch]

hisss

no conversation other than art related convo here

[olive cove]

I just wanted to share my map because I like it alot

[wind night]

Why does this channel even exist

[olive cove]

Also I was cleaning my glasses right now and I broke them

[wind night]

Why was creative streamplug and general not enough

[atomic latch]

@wind night because #general-discussion devolves into sadistical meme posting and stupid things which covers up any actual art

[olive cove]

Like the rim around my left lense is broken, but I can keep my lense in there and it still works

[atomic latch]

along with we have many artists here who does many un foxhole related art here

they can gain feedback and share ideas

[wind night]

So why disallow us from talking in streamplug...

[atomic latch]

in a better place other than the hell which is #general-discussion

that is for Foxhole

related art

this applies to same thing

do not have any normal convos here

[wind night]

But why aren't we allowed to talk about foxhole art in creative streamplug

[atomic latch]

you are. who told you can't directly?

[wind night]

Look at the pinned messages and the description

[atomic latch]

and i'm moving this convo out of here and clearing it since it is cluttering up this place

[tidal trench]

@olive cove holy shit

[atomic latch]

To clarify, #foxhole-creative is meant for submissions of Foxhole art, if you wish to discuss about that Foxhole art or any art related that is also not Foxhole, bring it over to #art-discussion

[wind night]

but...

why...

Like seriously

You're just confusing people

[atomic latch]

because it's a thing .

not my decision

[tidal trench]

HB wanted to have this a thing.

[wind night]

But why also ban us from talking about foxhole art n the FOXHOLE ART channel

[olive cove]

@tidal trench Like it?

[tidal trench]

Yeahhhh

[atomic latch]

@wind night it does say art discussion here right? or am i blind again.

[tidal trench]

ban is an extreme word.

lol

anyway, the whole point is, HB wanted to have one channel dedicated for all things art related for discussions. #foxhole-creative submissions can be discussed here.

[buoyant crest]

A little teaser for a possible upcoming suggestion (or otherwise just some art)

[olive cove]

How do you do it

[buoyant crest]

do what

[olive cove]

Make it look like it's actually part of it and not just photoshopped

[buoyant crest]

...

[tidal trench]

how are you doing this

[buoyant crest]

it is photoshopped

[tidal trench]

i mean, that's a pretty convincing photoshopped background

[olive cove]

I know that @buoyant crest

I meant what acq said

[wind night]

The background isn't photoshopped

[buoyant crest]

parts are

[tidal trench]

the top of the hatch I mean

yeah

[wind night]

The only thing photoshopped is the top of the VIC

[tidal trench]

the background isn't photoshopped because I took that picture

[wind night]

[tidal trench]

surprised you have it. I lost my screenshots

[buoyant crest]

it is an ingame screenshot @wind night , but at the place of where the turret should be is in fact photoshopped

[wind night]

Really?

It is?

[tidal trench]

ye.

thats what Im trying to get at

[wind night]

/s

[buoyant crest]

I drew some rocks and grass with a simple brush, then I used the stamping tool to give it proper textures @olive cove if that answers your question

[tidal trench]

i see.

never really understood the stamping tool

[buoyant crest]

I am trying to get the original

hold alt and then click on a spot, that is the spot you'll copy from, then just draw. to reset, do an alt-click again

For anyone curious

[tidal trench]

cool.

[buoyant crest]

I am a true master of photoshop

for all your weird pictures and memes, you can always contact me to fix them into even weirder pictures

[crude pilot]

Any sample?

Also I think no memes here :(

[tidal trench]

^

[pulsar grail]

@buoyant crest Ever used the mixer brush tool for that?

[buoyant crest]

Yeah, but gives this blurry effect, which I didnt want because I needed the textures @pulsar grail

[pulsar grail]

Yeah, just discovered it. Maybe because I was on CS3 until 3-4 months ago

#confessions

[tidal trench]

lol

[wind night]

CS3...

Okay then

Let's not talk about it

[pulsar grail]

Well, not being able to have all this automated stuff (as in CC) it really builts your skills

[wind night]

Yep

[buoyant crest]

Throwback to Artweaver

Love you!

should buy a new drawing pad tho

Oooh, maybe I should ask around here which one I should buy 🤔

Later today tho, need to focus on uni now

[crude pilot]

Rip uni

[pine stratus]

@deep swallow i’m not confident enough to help the mod seeing that i don’t know what the heck is UV mapping haha, but i did it sparingly over the last 2-3 months, maybe like 1 day per week (was busy with college)

[deep swallow]

That's why I'm offering to teach you how to do UV mapping

but you're on blender... Hmmm.... I'll probably recommend you to the other modeller who use Blender exclusively.

Here is my work: https://sketchfab.com/models/d9dbe5e9663f4bdfb62514dfd7f0cc21

[atomic latch]

@vocal acorn u stole my pictures

thanks very much

next time give credits would be nice

[bleak sandal]

@stuck crown why'd ya ask?

[atomic latch]

@stuck crown a question, u worked on all the art designs of vechiles or is there another person who helped?

[vocal acorn]

Yeah i forgot who did that, all i know was in 82dk

[pulsar grail]

Adam, aren't you doing any other creative stuff besides FH? I'd like to see that (even if it's urban knitting or smth)

[flint leaf]

@stuck crown sorry for yet another ping but any chance we'll see the warden gunboat model up on sketchfab soonish?

[solar fiber]

Yes

[stuck crown]

@flint leaf yes. By today at some point. we are just wrapping up some work on it
@pulsar grail I do have some on my personal Instagram. I don’t really want to share that too freely, but if you’re snoopy enough. You will find it

@atomic latch every part of the foxhole development is collaborative. There is not one person who is responsible for anything. In terms of design, the person who has he biggest input is definitely Julian though. He’s the gluten of our design bread

@bleak sandal just always wanted to see a web app with a map like that showing the active front

[bleak sandal]

Is that a challenge for @pulsar grail I smell

What if I'm gluten free

[solar fiber]

Well

I'm sorry

[bleak sandal]

can no longer play Foxhole

[flint leaf]

you mean gluten intolerant?

gluten free just means there's no gluten

lol

[solar fiber]

[bleak sandal]

uhhhhh

[pulsar grail]

Nah, I understand that Adam. Same here

[silk bison]

Does anyone have a foxhole img to use in an discord emoji?

[bleak sandal]

What do you mean by Foxhole img? the logo?

@silk bison

[deep swallow]

@tidal trench Hmmm.... do you still need me to do some streaming? I'm probably gonna stream making the lucius heavy stubber. But i have no idea what set up I should do. like no mic or using my shitty mic, what kind of music, etc.

[tidal trench]

I wouldn't mind.

[deep swallow]

aight. let me find a good setup

[pulsar grail]

Oh, come, come be my waitress and serve me tonight
Serve me the sky with a big slice of lemon (the National)

It’s a lemon cake with a depiction of a orange overcoming the sun

@stuck crown did the artists updated the Barge's model?

specifically the ramp?

can't imagine a barge letting your vehicle land smoothly

[stuck crown]

Wanted to show my awesome Swedish Chef and didn't want to clean up so it became this instead

[buoyant crest]

Hehehehe, love the camara item

Is that the dude from The Room in the corner there?

[narrow lynx]

Nah

Tommy has a different face structer I think ?

[tidal trench]

@pine stratus I mostly look at adam's models as well as any 3D models uploaded in sketchfab

from there I can learn

[narrow lynx]

Soo, If we do get camo for infantry, is it gonna be a netting or leaf camo ?

[pine stratus]

Thanks for the tips acq

[tidal trench]

@pine stratus im not sure if alot of people do it. I know a professional AAA artist that do,

But sometimes its hard to wrap my head around the model when its a complex one lmao

[pine stratus]

Especially when it got lots of curves and textures

[tidal trench]

Yeah

[pine stratus]

So is there a way to download it?

O wait

That’s copyrighted

What i wanted to say was is there a way to dissect the models and look at the UV maps? Or am i better off googling examples?

[tidal trench]

Theres an icon on the bottom

It shows you the diferent maps

As well as the uv checker

If the artist made it available, it should show you 3 options

● 3D
●3D + 2D. -- shows uv map and 3d model
● 2D only

[pine stratus]

^thanks as always acq, didnt notice that

[stuck crown]

Anyone here know substance designer well?

[olive cove]

I wish I did

I want to learn it at some point

[loud walrus]

@stuck crown depending of your question but maybe can we help you with it 😃

I got a friend who work at allegorithmic as intern

for his summer internship

[stuck crown]

I am having difficulty generating a non-uniform tiling pattern in designer. I would know how to do this manually, but I want a more flexible solution
https://twitter.com/AdamGarib/status/1001816015741902850

You can see my question on my twitter post.

Adam Garib (@AdamGarib)

@danjohncox @Allegorithmic @polycount Anyone Know how to make a non-uniform Mask completely in substance designer?

I want to have an Omni-directional tiling pattern that has:

• Varied Size of bricks
• Varied Orientation
• Non-uniform (breaks grid)

Twitter

[loud walrus]

ok I ask to him

[stuck crown]

Thanks so much!

[loud walrus]

do you already have those non uniform tile and want ot have them as mask ?

[stuck crown]

We have the best community ever

@loud walrus Assume I have nothing made. I want to generate that pattern from a shape

[loud walrus]

Have u tried with tile random maybe ?

[stuck crown]

Tile random usually lines up the shapes on grid (consistent rows and columns) and wil just scale and rotate within those

perhaps I have used it wrong

like so:

I found this resource actually: http://polycount.com/discussion/149205/nicolasws-substance-materials
http://polycount.com/discussion/148402/nicolasws-substance-experiments/p1

[loud walrus]

believing him using multiple tile generator can do it

[deep swallow]

@stuck crown If you wanna try cheating, make a bunch of alpha tiles then do the tile generator to allow some of it to stand on top of each others.

[loud walrus]

Create one tile gen, find the pattern which fit to you, then make a second and use it to blend them together after

[deep swallow]

^

or do that

[stuck crown]

In regards to this pattern the author writes

" the Opus pattern (the grayscale image on the left corner) was a bitmap because I was too lazy to make it in SD ;)"

Generating this in photoshop is not scalable for our team, so i need to find a way to do it all within SD

[loud walrus]

But if I believe my comrade, he says the guy used tile generators to create the textures you put in link

[stuck crown]

Ill try those

[deep swallow]

let me fire up my SD

to try how to do it

[loud walrus]

THe best would be to have time to do it but it's actually end of work for us in France and he's gonna leave work in few minutes so ^^

[stuck crown]

haha dont worry. i should be doing my work as wel

Thanks for your help already

[loud walrus]

No problem sorry to be no more useful ^^

Basically he says : FIrsstly, Find the right base pattern, then once it's found, add more details on the bricks you made @stuck crown

onnce you got one tile gen finished you got all what you need, rest is composed of perlin noise (to add some details on grids) and blend

[stuck crown]

Thanks for your friends help! The challenge I am having is finding the right base pattern, but the solution maybe in what you and @deep swallow have suggested.

[loud walrus]

Ok I hope it will help you ^^

[stuck crown]

It already has.

[deep swallow]

@stuck crown something like this? I'm currently trying to find how to make the blend to cut deeper.

[stuck crown]

@deep swallow I think so. Perhaps try the blend to mask one shape into the other one. But i can see what you're onto there

[solar fiber]

Could be useful tips

[loud walrus]

Did u tried the perlin noise ? @deep swallow

[deep swallow]

I'm just trying to make the bricks sorta the same size. haven't figured out the prefect number yet

although

I think I can game the system by having multiple tiles

[loud walrus]

yes

[deep swallow]

@stuck crown how about something like this?

Have you tried using brick generator?

[stuck crown]

closer. But its still on an even grid

[loud walrus]

Just change the Y axis of your grid then

and it's done 😃

[deep swallow]

tweaked stuffs to the parameters. I think this is my closest attempt so far.

I'll add more polish to it tomorrow. But I think this sorta works if we're using 0 external asset.

something I was doing for my mod.

[lavish fox]

If I wanted a Battlefield game set in WW2 I would go back and play Battlefield 1942, not this feminist dreamed up nightmare.

[bleak sandal]

tbh I don't get the hate. Is it just because it includes women? Or is it that the graphics were wayy too colorful @lavish fox

[remote lynx]

@bleak sandal It's because it's out of place

[lavish fox]

I prefer my historical accuracy, and I also didn't agree with the black soldiers in BF1 (apart from the Harlem Hellfighters of course), but women with camo on and prosthetic arms firing weapons with just 1 hand (there's that part in the trailer with the MG42) just takes the cake honestly. This is why I love Foxhole and all of these other games, they're not simulators like Arma but they're still grounded in reality, even if it's their own little made up reality like Foxhole.

[remote lynx]

as far as customization goes, this is 👌

technically an art discussion, mind you

I always prefer to go with standard along with a small personal touch

[tidal trench]

not sure how I feel about too many straps on.

Lighting is always aggressive to the eye.

gives that BF trademark

If they'd at least enforce uniforms I'd like it a little more

How is Axis customization going to work?

[summer field]

I think i messed up the perspective haha

[tidal trench]

its alright 😄

one think I've learned from a basic drawing class was that they usually set a "point" of reference., and then trace a line outwards.

if its a two point perspective, i think you trace a line from one point to the other, but in a curve???

[wind night]

The perspective needs a horizon, and that's all I can remember from my last drawing class

[tidal trench]

this one I made 6 years ago.

an attempt in "two point" perspective

[summer field]

oh yeah gonna share this too, made this for college festival

[tidal trench]

daym

are you planning to become a manga artist

cos you should

[summer field]

It's just a hobby lol

[tidal trench]

well it looks great

wish I could do something like that 😄

[summer field]

I bet you can

[tidal trench]

i cant :/

it ends up with too many lines

i also cant do proportions right lmao

[wind night]

I can draw architectural shit

Straight lines

Drawing people... well....

[summer field]

There's way to set the right proportions, you had to like draw endless circle everywhere, i forgot what it's called

[bleak sandal]

Drawing is really a procured talent. You have to keep practicing or else it goes away. Like me playing the piano

I took an art class in middle school 3 years back, now I don’t remember a thing, and that’s sad bc I really wish I had some decent drawing skills

[summer field]

I used to be able to play piano too lol

[tawdry sequoia]

same.

that was about... 7 years ago?

[bleak sandal]

Frickin freshman year I had to do an English project where you had to portray a character. God, my drawing of Dante was incredulously terrible

Looked like a bare drawing of someone on Naked and Afraid

[summer field]

Haha

[flint parrot]

@tidal trench Things don't always come out the way you want them to come out. It's very frustrating, but don't let that distract you

[summer field]

Looking back when i drew a lot 4 years ago my drawing back then looks better

[tidal trench]

I used to burn on a whole yellow pad

and its full of sketches

my mother was mad at me for doing so

[summer field]

Lol

i drew this back in high school

this too

[tidal trench]

could never draw something so clean

[wind night]

The first one kind of looks like seth's pfp

And when every drawing you make turns to shit, well... then you're quick to give up on it entirely

[feral prairie]

Changed the colour of mika to a more "army style"

[pliant spindle]

since you guys were discussing types of perspective, this might come in handy:
It's not very in depth (really, it's very superficial), but it touches on the 3 main kinds of perspective:

• 1, 2, or 3 points perspective (plus distorted perspective)
• atmospheric perspective
• implied perspective
  https://watercolorpainting.com/perspective/

and if you want a bit more technical explanation of 3 point perspective, this might help http://www.automotiveillustrations.com/tutorials/perspective-drawing-basics.html.

Perspective is another topic I love. Maybe I could do a little training session with tip and tricks, if people are interested.

now only to find time to do it 😑

[loud walrus]

Training session ? I save a seat for it @pliant spindle 😃

[peak rover]

@feral prairie Very Nice

[olive cove]

@buoyant crest those crates and stuff aren't there anymore

[timber beacon]

Can't wait to see the ramp animation

[buoyant crest]

But i see crates in the preview???

Que???

The preview is the old model, compare the new barge windows with the old ones

[tidal trench]

That was me

@stuck crown

senpai remembered me

[raven spire]

barge looks nice

but i cant get on top of the cabin anymore 😦

[tidal trench]

Gotta ask though

is the peg in that barge just open space now

or are you guys plnning to add props with it

[flint leaf]

looks like it's a change to prevent people from climbing up on top of the cabin

which is a decent change

[tardy coral]

Oh well still find a way

If theres anything ive learned about this community its that the harder we try to stop people from doing a thing.... the harder they try to break it

[odd berry]

Have you tried suggesting the opposite

[mystic escarp]

You can easily climb anywhere with the afk ladder, so yeah

[zinc notch]

does that barge cab have ac?

If not it looks airtight.

😄

and I hope the deck sits a bit lower than before.

[bleak sandal]

this looked like a lever, and I was like "wtf, there's a giant lever there now??"

[loud walrus]

is it the reworked Barge version ?

pretty sure that's mostly everyone's opinion of their own art

the truth is: you just need to draw more, practice more, and you'll slowly get better, even if you yourself think it still looks bad, there'll still be some degree of improvement

find a moment to doodle anything on a piece of paper, or mess around with paint.net or similar

We have our official warden waifu now

[tidal trench]

I think that's Attano

[timber beacon]

So, graphic design nerds, is it just me or is it really hard to make a modern feeling clan logo given:
• Colonial color scheme
• Colonial logo

Like,

I decidedd to play around with the BLD logo a bit and see if I can modernize it and clean it up, and attempted to go for the typical lame esports feeling.

((note: this is simply just playing around))

And it was absolutely horrible.

[crude pilot]

Colonial logo color scheme is too ww2

[timber beacon]

The green?

Like, the gold was at meast multipurpose but the green is so limiting.

[crude pilot]

Reminds me of the USA in ww2

[timber beacon]

The Colonial faction logo is also just hard to work with

It's great for other creative works, but from a logo standpoint, it's just....

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[crude pilot]

Yep the fist limit the possible variation

[timber beacon]

Non-standard shapes basically.

[crude pilot]

Meanwhile warden has a good eagle bird

(Not to be confused with the reich bird)

[timber beacon]

Their "Pokemon Go Logo" at least has clean shapes to work with

And symmetry of some sort.

To compound this, our clan (BLD) also has a hard name to work with - Building & Logistics Division.

It's easy to make something that just has the initials, sure, but to theme it right...

Brutal

Like, first stupid attempt

[crude pilot]

Bled

First impression

[timber beacon]

exactly

[crude pilot]

Like the sound

[timber beacon]

This is the current logo by the way.

[crude pilot]

Cartoony evil minons will make when they die

[crude pilot]

@timber beacon now u guys look like some kind of car company that sells lubricant

[timber beacon]

Kindof digged the text though. But eh, still different mesh of feel

heh that's funny

[crude pilot]

Nice animation

[timber beacon]

So I started playing with shapes -

I dig castles, for some reason, so brick shapes eh

[crude pilot]

Maybe completely give up the colonial logo?

[timber beacon]

But, gold? bleh

[crude pilot]

The knife will do but the fist is arbitrary

[timber beacon]

Green? bleh

[crude pilot]

Blu

[timber beacon]

Suddenly jerseyfied

[crude pilot]

Welcome to warden

[timber beacon]

Warden at least has a very usable color from a design standpoint

I dig red and gray as a combination at times, so I tried

[loud walrus]

green is easier to use than blue 😃 in design

[timber beacon]

I always found blue easier (depending on the green and how it can be used - blue is just easier to blend with other colors in design than green to me)

It feels kindof neato, but it still doesn't sit right with me, ya know?

[buoyant crest]

@timber beacon take the fist, take out the sword, replace with a hammer 😉

[timber beacon]

But yeh, that was my attempt.

[crude pilot]

Esport logo

[timber beacon]

Did that already

[buoyant crest]

Oh yeah

Warhammer

[timber beacon]

Back when we were gold

[crude pilot]

They all look like they sell engine lubricant

[buoyant crest]

You can also use the swords and put them behind the logo to create a more square emblem

[timber beacon]

OG logo

[crude pilot]

This'll Make a good logo if you're playing mount and blade

[buoyant crest]

RCL had bayonetted rifles to do that

If you lengthen the swords you can do it

[crude pilot]

←Mr.I-complain-your-art-anyway

[timber beacon]

The problem is, we're evolving a bit more to "not just Foxhole" yeh? And I wanted something that represented us a bit more that way

[buoyant crest]

Building and Logistic Division is a hard name to work with tho

[timber beacon]

And we wanted to try to stick to our roots at the same time

[buoyant crest]

Understandable

[timber beacon]

It's just like, I picked everything that can go wrong when it comes to design

• bad colors
• hard name to work with
• bad theme

[buoyant crest]

Its hard to renew a logo without changing it too much

[timber beacon]

Hell, I considered changing our name and rebranding 100%

But, we're known as BLD yeh

It's just our thing.

[buoyant crest]

I may have some old clan logo prototypes laying around, I can semd you them tomorrow to give some insiration

[timber beacon]

Hell, we're now being recognized in other games that we play so it's like, eh can't change that.

[buoyant crest]

Do you have adobe photoshop?

[timber beacon]

Yeh I have full Adobe CC, with AI and such

[buoyant crest]

Cool

[timber beacon]

I actually wish I hadn't given away the Syndicate name

So generic but so ez
