Certainly is a cool tank tho
So I also like the Romboid lads
the St Chamond?
My lord
Yes
St chamond at least reminds me of an spg
Maybe slow down on the tank discussion, not really falling under “art” at this point.
FT-17 vs T-55 in Afghanistan
What about the train caboose
Chad FT-17 wins
Tanks are a form of art
Oh shit its snowing
@rancid carbon I agree, but you guys aren’t talking about the art part of it.
Just so no one gets assblasted, have a bit of this abomination.
@long pecan Instead of being an asshole about it why not just make a request on our behalf to Sir?
I don't see how making an entirely different discord is feasible when we're just gonna keep talking about it here regardless.
*Tank killah
Just a simple vehicle discussion channel under the other topics category.
@lavish fox I will ask but I can predict what he is gonna say. “Then I have to make a plane channel, then a medical channel, etc”
Is that at4?
Well he's making a ton of bullshit roles but can't be bothered to make a single channel.
For a topic that's often discussed.
You can always use #general-discussion
Aha yeah, and mingle with the rest of the shit there.
Nah it's not an AT4 lole
Brilliant.
More like modernized PIAT that shouldn't exist
Ah
Vehicle Channel*
Yeah
No here to argue, I informed u you should move it. Up to you what you do next
If we can't have a meme channel for all public use, then you can't have a vehicle channel.
Case closed.
I have spoken.
Yikes, salty for no reason.
Says the internet tough guy.
Really tempted to ask for discord mod at this point. Both of you stop or I will go get a DM
Actually
Well you have the moderator roles...
Can I blast these two with my shottie? Kinda wanna test it
Yeah I'll head out, honestly no clue why he took me seriously and got all mad.
All I'm asking is for a simple vehicle discussion text channel so we don't keep spamming this one.
But noooo, better be assholes about it.
Id would be nice to make suggestions for tybes of vehicles but eh
Plus vehicles play a very big part in the game so I don't see the issue.
Besides SOMEBODY being lazy.
Dont argue with mods boi
I'm betting you're the one that called them in the first place so you can have your "revenge" because you're jelly of us talking about tanks.
Same as the kid in class that asks for extra homework.
Actually it was a game mod that pointed it out. @lavish fox I told sir about your request but do you really think he will consider it given the fact that you are ranting and provoking people? Just take some time and cool off
I may be ranting but I'm not provoking anybody, assholes come here looking for a fight and I'm just giving it to them.
None of this would be happening if we just had a simple vehicle chat for all of the vehicle discussion, memes, art, pictures and so forth.
...Are we done now? I want to post shit already.
I dont see any shit post
@left wind did you make that? It’s really cool
do y'really want me to repost danny devitt-o for the 555th time?
@long pecan yeah, made some NCR stuff back in the day
never really got around finishing the whole sprite sheet, plus it was... well, crappy - shall we say?
This feels a bit odd.
Got any ideas how to bring more harmony to this duo?
76 round to the side might do it
Nono. I want it to work.
How it feels to turn your pistol into a chonky smg
Chew 5 gum
Is this plastic beer crate with some kind of display?
Yeah I think it's something British would do.
Or maybe Germans?
that's british
Germans surely wouldn't name something of theirs "Marla"
Yeah, but did they have a strict font guideline to follow?
perhaps
even if it was 'just do whatever' it makes sense
if it were British and the font weren't uniform it'd probably be cursive or just simple block letters
almost certainly not a german font
or even a german anything
been seeing a lot of pixel art recently so thought id try it myself
what do you chaps think?
thanks @buoyant crest 😄
I like the combination of hard lines with the shadowing
Ohhh yeahhh.
Finally found it. Now you can find perfect camping position and throw away worries about single plane killing You.
In winter AA gunners get warm from the engine below them. Peak tank design.
unless you've lost too many soldiers last month, so they send you some newbie as a gunner just from training, and you die anyway
It's summer and the soldier dies from heat exhaustion because you're trying to retake africa
Or shrapnel.
Or sniper
Or generally anything
Welp.
That's life of AA gunner everywhere.
Also. Real american tank. Just look how chonky and packed it is. So much additional armour. Boy, I would slap couple of skirts for even more protection.
it has skirts tho?
Not enough of them.
fair point
Meybe even make a skirt around turret?
Whatchu think about this anomination?
I see a problem with its scaling ability.
I like the design; I think I once designed something very similar
It's not disgusting.
But I don't know what designers had in mind when making it so long.
Well, it gives a low silouette, which is like the only few forms of protection you can give an armoured car
I made this boi
I am not so sure about low profile for bad off road tradeoff.
I prefer smaller ACs.
Ohh. Your Saffir looks good.
well, depends on what the reason for the AC is; countries like the netherlands had no tanks, so the ACs had to be beefy you know. If your car is made for fighting, a long and strong gunned designed is preffered over something small, made for reconnaissance
I guess the first one I presented wasnt really supposed to go full off-road then.
wheels are generally poor off road anyway 😉
But this bad boy certainly could do so.
Perfect when you need logi in some remote places.
hmmmm
Ever seen the DAF suspension system? that is something from 1930s and still used today
the M39 has some nice angles like that as well
Or mybe this one?
lol
It was named something something twister.
Nipple twister
hmmm
Buff truck. I love buff trucks.
um..
I think something like an SU-1-12 would fit great as a mobile field gun in the game
No armour, a large gun and okay mobility
And it could use the truck models we have
Found back this oversized badboi
KV-2 of armoured cars.
Also. A vehicle thats sole purpose is to confuse scouts whetever it is a tank or armoured car.
T18 Boarhound is the peak design of heavy armoured cars.
Take a look at those curves. I cant stop looking.
Another pic that might interest You.
Is that an M8 turret on that last one?
Curved car bad
Pictures of the only known Porsche Tiger in service as the command vehicle of the 653. Schwerer Panzerjäger Abteilung with the designation number "003". It's estimated to have destroyed about 50 Soviet tanks until it's disappearance from the unit's reports sometime in 1944.
Note the bolted on additional 100mm armor plate at the front.
Oh such a beauty
HMS Cabbage Stomper
Tog is better than tiger
TOG? More like POG
Fool, this is the true AA
.
Yep, looks like an airplane.
Y'call those things "AA guns"? Pathetic, try one o' these bad boyes out.
banzai charge from the air
kamikaze from the ground
xD
I am The Superior AA! Exterminate planes! EXTERMINATEEE!!!
Verdeja?
Space.... it happened to be his final frontier
I would say they were lucky
It depends.
Maybe it was a suicide?
#EDKH
Slow down with the memes.
Maybe its just Porsche?
Mmmm.
TDs...
Check THIS out!
It's one of those special ones.
Brown bess best gun
plunger
: how about me
What is this tumor on top of that turret?
More dakka
Gee. I wish T14 had cupola like this^.
Also. Quad 14.5mm perfection.
Hey @bleak elk why do you post so many vehicle pictures?
where do they all come from
so many
cough cough The fuck have I done now
@buoyant crest
Ohh. I like vehicles and mechanical stuff.
I try my best to post the most unusual things. They mostly come from Pinterest but I use other sources.
I post them here since #brainstorming got deleted. I hope they will bring inspiration to artists and designers in here.
Ah yes, Pinterest
they are a lot tho; I barely get the time to actually analyze them lol 😅
well you do you, F #brainstorming
If anyone wants to get more of them I can send some via DMs.
only thing I don't like about pinterest is how it attempts to sabotage me, yeah, it's actively trying to do that - with anime, may I add
don't laugh at me you Dutch motherfu-
aheem
I know. I opened one meme that came from T***lr and now I am flooded by shitty pics about feminism 'n shiet.
It's so fkn Cringe TM.
well at least my plane (look above) isn't as bad as... that
It's not half bad. It's good actually.
How bout You try to portrait it from other sides, eh?
Perhaps, but I'd rather do it in another style
be it Advance Wars or GraalOnline Era style
idk which one to do first though
May I interest You in drawing WW1/2 auto howitzer?
holy mother of joseph
Ofc that's not the only way to make it work. You can use casette magazine or even a revolving chamber!
Ot maybe autoloader? Some bizarre receiver? Multiple barrels?
Recoilles katiusha like howitzer?
Now You know what I have in mind whole time.
Basically alternate engineering.
Now. Cya.
i remember seeing warden or collie models on one of the dev streams anyone have those pics or who made em
like warhammer models but foxhole if that helps at all
Okay turtle it's time for your meds
Bigger and better APC.
@high ledge jokes on you, I take my meds in the morning and not evening
L
Either we get trains or we'll make our own road train.
how it feels to chew 5 gum
It feels just like this.
Didn't notice.
eh, the barrels didn't turn out to be... on the line
will need to rework on it later, too tired to even walk at this point
Maybe next time try to draw things in transport position first.
Looks good.
could model it into ravenfield... if only i knew how2blender
:)
yeah i'll never be able to use blender
Are there other views of it btw?
not as of yet
if anyone interested in the game Kenshi, ive made a story on wattpad if any one is interested, i just cranked out a new ep recently
https://www.wattpad.com/story/204439429-the-adventures-of-hornsy-and-the-blacksand-mercs

needs a plow then
nice tank!
Holy crap, this is why we tell you guys not to get downed... there are horrible stories that go on in those field hospitals.
Medic : you are already Healing
Tried drawing a quick anime person
you have tried
she looks like she is shocked by her sudden existence
Here You can see a KV-2 making place for clearly superior machine.
Move over, fatty
KV2 isnt fat, it just has big brain
that 152 isnt the only thing that its packin
You may be right.
American Combat Car line of vehicles is so delightful.
It's basically something between M3 HT and Christie light tank.
Also, this turret looks a bit like a sunken pillbox.
Testing my Kriegspiel like game in photoshop lol
made the map and pieces myself, now only having to finish the rules 😩
The worst part. Trying to balance stuff.
Give em bikes
- Riding with bike *
Well, nice thing of kriegspiel is that there doesnt have to be balancing; it is supposed to simulate real life and getting heavy losses can mean a victory if the enemy takes too long @bleak elk
The games set around Napoleotic times, so line infantry are the shit™️
as in... motorbikes or bicycles?
It doesn't matter.
both
hm
Both as one
a kv-2 but useful
Tried a vickers six ton with a girl commanding it
Cool
Hello everyone, I drew a cute Warden girl as fanart.
This is really nice
Thatr really well made
Wanna know what's not well made though?
This hideous thing, probs should start all over.
The turret doesnt look that bad
Just add a bit more details and a better cmouflage. You dont have to start over
i'm slowly starting to think that I've made a modernized version of a fucking T-34
now that u mention it
pls no kill me
I don't really see T-34s shapes in there.
feels like a centurion x t-10 to me
So this is my take on a Guardia Rebel it's still WIP, but I wanted to ask some feedback about the face, I don't know why but it feels weird. Any comments?
I think it feels weird because there's a perspective issue on the face, the nose seems to be facing the left a bit too much while the rest of the face for the most part is facing just slightly to the side of the "camera" @restive gyro
I have the same issue and it takes me a good bit to actually get it right. I'd circle the specific spots, but I'm not at my PC right now.
I observe two odd points; the nose is a sort of unbalanced piramide like structure, but in de drawing, it appears to not extend enough. Now this could be a flat nose, but that is not very common in real life. The other is actually the eyes. If you turn your head, the width if your eyes "change" because your face is rounded. I would try making the back eye (left) a tad less wide. Then move the whole nose part slightly to the left as well as to make the distance between the eye corner and the nose smaller @restive gyro
I think if you experiment with that for now, it might solve the issue
@buoyant crest Ah shit didn't notice the left eye, I may have hit ctrl+z at some point. Also @olive cove now that you guys mention it, the nose is kind of weird indeed will try to see how I can fix it tomorrow
Btw guys, how about the mouth and the beard, do you see it weird?
I have a different style of drawing hair, so I cant say much about it. Can't determine wether the postion of the mouth is right due to the nose
I use to draw hair more "bushy" with pen and paper, I have to figure how to do the same with the tablet
I like to make my beards plucky 🙃
@restive gyro I feel like tilting the mouth a bit to the right (your right) would fix that portion. And I also do my hair differently as I tend to do more semi-realistic/stylied drawings
@drifting stone screw callahan... hail the warden angel (also love the warden logo looking like wings behind here) I sense a great potential for warden themed pin-up girls from you
@bleak elk Here is some more info on the M2A2 Terrastar for ya
I've done some stuff with the Terrastar before as part of a world building project I am doing. Neato machine, but still has to be used with a truck if you wanna move it long distances
Oh yes, and it was supposed to have a gunshield
i'm slowly starting to think that I've made a modernized version of a fucking T-34
@left wind looks more like a modernized Valentine imo
um..
@thorny pawn thank you!
Thanks for the info man! @covert salmon
Np
I believe the tri wheels was to reduce ground pressure plus provide easy access to spares
Nvm, it says so the first pic why they did that
my god
Christie, thank You for this machine.
No...
@buoyant crest thanks
Communist tank bad
Just like Collie tanks.
Just like warden tanks then, they have the same stats
Difference is our crews actually know what the fuck they're doing.
Not so sure about that remembers the stealing of one of the first warden tanks last war
@sterile pumice Christie was a Brit. He designed the Christie Suspension and one of the many tanks he designed was sold to the Soviet Union, which redesigned it slightly into the BT-1 and later BT-2. He also designed many many other tanks, which none ever got sold
The Speed lad
I know that
@willow rapids ... wat is the difference between the two?
Im a bit war history nut
oh yeah lol
A better screen of my draw
@buoyant crest John Walter Christie, the man who designed the Christie suspension, was an American engineer that was declined by the American Army but accepted by the British and Soviets.
I suggest you fact check your information next time.
He was an American? oh lol
No reason to be so sneary son 😉 @lavish fox
I too do it from the top of my head
@buoyant crest @olive cove Better now?
Eyes are a great improvement!
Can you try moving the nose slightly more for fun? Curious how that looks
Could try, give me a min
can be choppy 😉
There
Both seem to work tbh
Second one seems better proportioned though, more in line with face direction
Anyway I will do simple colour and wrap it up
Mmm.
Early tracked vehicles have this specific look that I just love.
Tfw no M2 with twin 37mms
Why even exist?
Firepower superiority!
Me and a friend watched girls und panzer
Anyone know where we can buy a Tankette for drifting?
A italian one can be found in your nearest trash bin
Already checked there. We only found a tigers transmission
thassa rare find
And a worthless one
Exarmyvehicles.com - sale of military vehicles for private collectors. Tanks, APC, BMP and more for sale.
Huh
Shady Eastern European seller
They sell bloody tanks
Holy cow
But thats one trash communist tank
Non interest.
Exarmyvehicles.com - sale of military vehicles for private collectors. Tanks, APC, BMP and more for sale.
Hey ive driven in one of these
But that one had 20mm cannon in a turret
And they even sell SHKH VZ.77 DANA
Y'all ever get bored and just...
Design a cheap homemade howitzer that will be made of fucking PVC pipe and will probably shatter the moment you try to use it, but God damn it it looks like a pak40?
You talking about Dana?
how it feels to chew 5 gum
@high ledge
Yes, I do.
Maybe not when I am bored.
And not from PVC, only metal pipes.
What propellant have You chosen?
I once build a potato gun. Used Axe Africa deodorant for combustion propellant. Every shot smelled like fried potatoes and the jungle
Since I have this week off I wanted to try another portrait
This one I'm more happy with, the last one was me experimenting with a more comic style
God bless you for actually drawing the warden collar correctly
Thank you, it wasn't easy though, had to look for a ton of references in models and concept art
@high ledge In fact, I have done that, though my hypothetical one would look like a 6 pounder
most would take the easy way out and go inaccurate, so i appreciate it that much more
As propellant, probably buy a shitton of normal ol firecrackers, the cheap ones that babushkas make in backyard while kompot is being made, rip them open and use the black powder from within @bleak elk
Basically the cheapest cannon there is
For me this is how the warden uniform could look like
@drifting stone couldnt help it lol, too much potential here
Colonial medics actually do their job instead of watching you die while making kissy faces
atleast we are leaving with a view ❤️
I belive the proper term is ward-fu
edit: that sounded better in my head lol
edit #2: i just realized the detail put into the artwork. look where the stockings end. you can see where the thighs buldge out a bit. it wasnt just a change in color the mad lad can actually draw realistic thighs
@high ledge
Oh boy. That sounds interesting. But I would highly recommend not using PVC.
I was designing mortar powered by F3 P2000 bangers. But then I realized that people get busted by police for less, so I stopped. Destroyed all drawings, blueprints etc.
@thorny pawn Hah, I like it!
*start to Develop about New machine *
@severe carbon what's wrong with kissy faces XD
Nothing wrong with them, it just that bandaging a bullet wound seems more important
honk
Oo
Nice ^
Combat harvester
lord forgive me for what i'm about to do

is it season 3 already
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Unpoplular opinion (maybe): Anime art styles dont go with the Foxhole Aesthetic
I can agree with that
Hum..
to an extent
though I'd say it's more up to the artists to do what they will with both styles
I just thinking do...to develop for body armor suit...
Its really up to the Artist on what they want but there is just something about anime and Chibi art style that dosent go well with what foxhole is going for. Like this game is supposed to be realistic and art that depicts very gritty scenes of destruction or the aftermath of a battle fits with Foxhole. Chibi or Anime styles of art dosent catch that...grit that some others do cause most of the time its cartoony, light hearted, or depicts women (not to say that there is anything wrong with that)
What
pingas
I mean, there is a gender option in foxhole, there are female characters ingame 
thea maro as well in the lore
Hum... It's Impressive
Airplane when
There's the toxot 88-A lying around
I saw that, but it looked too modernastic for foxhole
That is in foxhole
That is a clapfoot design
Not the one I rebuilt
The one I rebuilt it from
Brah
it's a propeller monoplane
unless it's a cessna it's hard to make it not look like a WWII plane
I think that FMG's would be used as AA guns
and if that's the case biplanes would be shredded
It was mentioned in lore somewhere, wasn't it?
hell, even most WWII planes were shredded by high-calibre AA guns
Not specifically that they were AA emplacements
they were used on the Bulwark and mounted to carriages
I just came to the conclusion that if planes exist and the FMG is taking up space and not being used then it would make a perfect AA gun on a suitable mount
Maybe that's why the Toxot has that missing wing armour, to go faster so it's harder to hit with AA.
Possibly
That or the armour is optional
Hold on, could you post a pic and show what part you're referring to?
Toxot 88-A, left, apparently missing some panels on its wings, and the toxolot, right, that was rebuilt and has those panels.
Arent the maps small for planes tho
We're not talking about their viability.
Oh, then the maps are shrunk compared to how big they would be if they were truescale
Perhaps it served as a fighter and ground attack aircraft that could be field-modified to suit either role
or there were separate variants
Like the FW-190 A-8 vs the FW-190 A-8/U
notice how the propellers are different too
the Bf 109 was a fighter but had a ground attack variant
well, if you count the Jabo bombers
The one on the right is the one I spent 8 hours rebuilding before the canon one was released
But they could very well both be accurate
I put em back together from wrecks my guy
after all, they'd need to redo the model to make an official version
might be worth asking Matt next time he does a questions thing
He did give us the name of the Toxot 88-A and that it was a fighter
And that designation system does imply 88-b, 88-c, etc
Possibly for different roles
I bet the 'cricket-bat propeller' variant we see is an early model
from the looks of it, something big happened in Stonecradle
it's very far back in Warden territory, so it would've most likely been a reserve airfield
perhaps even a training airfield, utilising older 'cricket-bat' models
The place you find the wrecks does have some stone outlining a rectangle ~350 meters long
In stonecradle
Plus the barrack looking things are probably stand-ins for proper hangars.
yeah, no doubt they had to focus on gameplay things first
that and it'd be hard to put the ones form the home region in the game
If planes ever do come.
I would like to point out that the propellors are near identical between the toxot and toxolot, it's just that the toxolots props are locked to an angle while the toxots can probably adjust what angle of attack they have.
there's also a plane crashed near the rumhold fort in allod's
Body armor tier 1 / tier 2 / tier 3 Need to more detail
thanks
Make more safe for Soldier
This pic is just too good. A priest and a Behemoth.
God bless that things transmission
" Don't save money for body armor suit ! Soldier need to equip with protection! Am i ask you.. If the enemy attack your homeland, you will save the money than homeland " - ??????
All I can see there is a land mosquito.
With a good earth paintjob.
The girls und panzer Anzio school, is by far the best
the first tier armor looks nice and simple
bros is it season 3 already i wanna jump in the bandwagon
I have been trying new things to get into shading so I wanted to ask how does this look, does it looks too forced? Or does it look fine?
Looks good
Some idea I had for the antagonist's gas mask design in a story I'm thinking of.
Looks good if not viewed from the front
@restive gyro A tip from me: look into hard shading and soft shading. Also, not sure if you are doing that, but you are not using a grey transparent colour to shade, are you?
No I'm not. I am trying to get hard and soft shades, the problem is that I have never done it before with a tablet (know the basics and have aplied to plastic models and a bit in paper), therefore I can't get a proper blending going on @buoyant crest
@severe carbon Thank you
Carro Veloce sketch
Yours is much better!
Need to Develop the LOGISTICS
Well lets just say that i like to draw tanks
And i tried many times. I had to redo a lot of stuff before it looked like this
Indeed keep up good work
@restive gyro aight, that clarifies your "request" a bit
Yeah, I'm gonna need to to some more studying on that topic. Specially how to blend things, some of today's experiments were horrible
Blending is hard
I prefer using masks and then set it to a multiplier overlay. It is a bit harder to get the color right at first, but allows more fluent shadowing with the right pens
mainly try experimenting with transparent layers and then screwing around with their type; they are remarkably usefull at times, but you need to know what does what
Alright, thanks for the advise!
Nice Carro Veloce sketches, both of You.
Just look at its turret. Nearly same as in warden AC.
Is that a kubelwagen with a turret?
...behind the front seats in the middle
its a jeep, do u seriously expect them to make it armored
Armored car 😉
yeah they have proper designs for that role
This is why we can’t have nice things
Because people add turrets to them
And make them bad
M3/Panzer IV
The power of recycling
Vismod for training?
Saw that did yah? XD
American Fat Fuck.
No offence intended.
Why is that oddly satisfying to look at?
chonkiest of boiz
Slowly approaching suspiciously looking pile of dirt
Smashes it furiously
explosion
Does it looks better now? @buoyant crest
I swear I'm bloody tired of looking shit up on how to blend and do shading...
Not Foxhole related..
Nice Vadnais, what softwer did you use?
Man, I wish I had that much patience
Patience can do big part but when you're really into what you're making patience isnt something you need
but yeah thats 2 days of work
Man, I wish I had that much focus for long enough
Haha
Yeah, I can barely do simple pieces in Solidworks, if I were to do something like that I would end up shooting myself. I love 3d modeling but hate learnig how to doo it, too much complicaten to me
An idea for a Loki-esque character. I found the name arcane trickster fitting, but they aren’t from dnd
Stunning work
Hhh😋
@restive gyro 10x better, he looks like he has actually seen the sun in the war more now. Forehead is a little bit bright, also the left cheek might be as well but I can’t tell with the forehead. Left check may also be a little dark but I doubt it myself. Not an artist by the way so take what I say with a grain of salt.
Second opinion: it may be the cheeks and not the forehead, the don’t “match” as well as the rest of the face imo (drawing a line down the middle.) but definitely a major improvement from the last time
Idk the terminology but “shading wise” the left half of his face seems brighter then the right if that makes sense. Personally think it’s the cheeks but again not an artist
Almost like the light source for him is on his left? Ish
Thank for your feedback, I'll revise the cheeks later on today. Also yes, the light is coming from the front left
nice houses man
@restive gyro oh wow, looks neato
(for digital art, I am more of a hard shading guy, so I can't say how you can potentially improve much)
Seems fine to me
@buoyant crest Thank you very much
Myessss...
Needs more dakka.
Something else with more dakka.
what in the living fuck
No idea. Check out this clip fed SPG.
clip-fed
Yes.
early autoloader question mark
Crane loaded ammo in clips.
Therefore it is clip fed.

perhaps
O h
I refuse to accept it.
The down looks like la viva de resistance copied version the upper looks like warden royal army or navy

I just have a reference image, in this case it was a bust. I draw the basic basic forms and then start working on it. then I sketch the basic proportions and how things are gonna go, later a iterative process with clearer lines on another layer to have a more define thing.
Next I would do the inking (I believe is called), where I do the line work. In this case I hadn't though that the drawing would take this turn so I did a thick one 'cause I originally though about doing it a bit more cartoony (next time I will try with thinner lines).
Then it comes the colouring process, in this step the reference image wasn't too much of help due to various sources of lighting so I eyeballed it. I made a layer for shadows with blackish and white tones and tried to blend them.
After that I used basic solid colour layers and tune the shadows to make it "work". I multiplied the layers in a rush.
I tried to blend colours properly but since I'm new into digital drawing I made a mess with the brushes options and colour blocking, so I resorted to multiplying the shadow layers.
That's basically it
@dire plinth
I'm going to make Union States of Warden flag
Just curious are you taking any courses in Drawing or Graphic Design? @restive gyro
No I'm not @olive cove
I'm learning on my own, following internet tutorials and I recently bought me a book about drawing that I'm looking on from time to time to get the basics
@restive gyro so, basically, you gotta find brushes on deviantart. Most of those brushes can help a lot in different situations, while also providing a texture feeling. Now, about lights and shadows, colours must not be isolated. The highest tone on the face should be mixed with the lightest one on the jacket. This way, your colours travel along the painting.
Brushes can be helpful, buf too many can be stressful too, so jsut use whatever you like to, test them out, see what works for what.
Now, about colours, here is a painting I made a while back and I keep using it as an example cause it was by itslf a study on the thing I just said:
Do you feel the orange and purple tones in lights and shadows?
@dire plinth I recently got my tablet so It gets on my nerve sometimes getting to know how things work.
About the shadows it is a thing I need to work on next time I draw, I want to get to properly blend colours using midtones and all that
Yes I do fell them
Yes, but as a rule of thumb: never, ever take a colour and use just it for lights and shadows. For example, never go with blue from black to white, called brightness. Play with all 3:
Think about warm and cold colours, then contrast. Try to come up with something that delivers a message too, like: if this tank is green, what is the best colour for shadow? A darker green, moving the hue slightly towards yellow and with a lower saturation, depending on how far it is.
Youu use saturation, A, for depth, then brightness for, of course, brightness, othed than that, how is your friend. Combining them is an art by itself.
Yeah, I get what you are saying. I just tried that first but got myself stuck, so I just opted for a "quicker" way using blacks and whites for shadows, since I was getting mad learning on how to use the brushes
On a more precise subject, in your drawing, the face should be darker in some areas, then the jacket should have a different type of blue in shadow and a different one on light. But if you have another warden in the back, that guy's colours should tend to be of a lower saturation.
I had a pallet for like, 4 to 6 blues for shading but I couldn't make myself clear with the brushes, so I tried to pull it out
Now if you can make shadows alout of cold vs warm colours, then you are all sef and ready to go. Whites and blacks makes it look like an icon.
Ah, well, default brushes can do stuff.
The skin I did get to blend some colours but, again, the brushes got me mad and I just took the laziest way
But they are really lacking texture and ig is harder to blend. It is unnecessarily more painful for you
So, as a start, use Dave greco's brushes, imo
I loved them
They are free and named with an intuitive nick so you can understand what to use where
Yeah, my next objective will be get a hand on brushes, tune them if needed and practise a lot following tutorials and all that
Tutorials in painting should be justl ike in programmingm
You pause it and draw what hd draws.
That is a tip on how you learn efficiently
Never watch a full video and go back at the table and try to do the same. Draw while he draws. Use him as a menthor, even if he can't directly answer.
Cause that is how you udnerstand how a certain artist does a certain effect with a certain brush for example
Will do
Ah, and most important.
HAVE FUN WHEN YOU DO IT. Nobody rushes you, most of us here in the community just practiced more than you, they aren't special, they didn't got anything in a morning while drinking a cup of coffee. All of them put a great amount of work to get the best out of them. Be the same, ask us for guidance, ask us anything, we are here to help.
And we will always be here to show art, do critique, help beginners and enjoy art. That is the purpose of an art channel. With that being said, I am waiting for your next drawing, have fun, work hard and keep up the good work!
Hahaha yes I know about that. But thanks for saying tough, I really have been having fun since it's the first time I draw something in like, 6-7 years
But again, thanks for all the advises I'll try to put them on good use @dire plinth

Do you want feedback on the modelling?
Why not.
A bit late on that but eh.
That's some fancy painting
It's one of a kind
That looks amazing
Hello everyone, here's a new concept I've done
Now I want that shield in-game
Ive always thought personal shields were cool, but I have since learned that 7.62 does not care about shields lol
rule of cool man
@drifting stone Please never stop making unbelievably unique costume designs.
amazing trench trooper.
@drifting stone Do you draw snake people and do you take commissions.
If so how much does it cost?
@drifting stone You've finally found a way to make me even worse for the enemy.
In concept of course...
God dayumn, that trench trooper is splendid
I've always enjoyed the concept of a sentinel-type character
Union States of Warden
@restive gyro Nice, that's how I started out as well
Also @dire plinth can you send me the brushes you use whenever you got the chance?
What kind of new weapon?
No... we have this.
There's our new relic armor suits.
Perfect. Just as ugly as we need it to look.
Just add a storm rifle-like weapon to the front.
@willow rapids Yeah I'd imagine that would be fitting for a Colonial design of the uniform
My dude you are underestimating the power of moving coffins
@olive cove sure, later today
If anhything, look up dave greco on youtube, his videos should have link in the description.
@high ledge I love that dreadnaught design
hwat
burh
@olive cove Wow, nice to know
Detail on the road too rough
@primal flicker #cool-community-stuff?
Add this
no
me when making a tbs game
Tankette
noish
spessh coloniez
Finally some Lego.
Balkans.
yes
YES.
Да
Just fucking shoot me already.
don't mind if I do
@bleak elk Why is there a sherman/Lee hybrid?
Ya all with the tanks
Anyone good at 3d modeling and has experience 3d printing?
Lets make a tank irl
I can do the electrical and mechanical part
@cobalt tinsel
I want to bring him to real life so bad.
@cobalt tinsel Sure.
If you wanna 3D print a 1:1 model of a Tiger.
hell with that, let's pool funding and buy a manufactury with the tooling for it
Yes. I am sure we'll make money on it.
I suggest China/India because of cheapest steel and industry.
@bleak elk China?
Do you want to catch a virus boy.
Or do y'wanna turn into a commie?
@lavish fox more talking about a scale model foxhole tank
I'd be down for either the Warden BT or Anvil.
@cobalt tinsel I own a small 3D printer
Has a tiny print bed though
Too small for good armor
figuring out scale would be number 1. it has to fit in 2 DC motors. motorshields, a microprocessor and a power supply
that says nothing about the turret mechanism yet either 😛
xD
I dont think printing the body would be the most expensive thing though. especially if the scale is just right. it doesnt have to be enormous. a lego scale tank works fine too
its all about doing proper design work.
clip-fed
@left wind Yes, it was clip fed
Anvil feels more like a name for the colonial version; since lore already shown they name their stuff after objects.
Collies name stuff after weapons so Anvil might not fit us too well
Idk Ive seen an anvil do serious damage
Not to mention the hammer and anvil is a military strategy
OOH ooh
name the warden one the anvil, and the colonial one the hammer
and then when dead harvest happens, the zombies are caught between the hammer and anvil
eh? eh? 
Anyone who plays SCP Secret lab will know this feel
@peak oyster God dammit it was supposed to be a surprise.
Who's online now anyway ;)
@vast scaffold The name is written in upper cases for a reason.
Plus this thing is older than the Colonial vehicles so it's entirely possible that the Collies started copying the Wardens for the names.
i know my colour scheme is a bit off, but im just learning how to paint, what do you guys think of my attempt?
That's really good, well done
thanks, im trying to design it like the wardens
this is one i have half finished about 5 mins ago
Oooh
lioh?
Why would anyone do this?
What in the name of
looks like some malformed child of ww2 guns
What kind of "Freedom" dispenser is this?
I'm going to assume the right side gun is a 50 cal
Idunno about fitting that many parts on the top of a humvee though
The other one is an auto 'nade launcher
Shouldn't it be a cockroach instead?
Should be. 
Now who is the asshat that deleted my epic gamer post?

Guess it’s time to draw the post and classify it as art UwU
Beautiful photo.
Ah Tank Destory
yes
Imagine driving this thing and suddenly there's a dude with a sticky jumping out of the bush right next to you.

Thats so freaking cool man
I wonder why does the hatchet have no sprocket wheel

Baptized in fire
Forty to one
So silent before the storm
Awaiting command
A few has been chosen to stand
As one outnumbered by far
The orders from high command
Fight back, hold your ground!
In early September it came
A war unknown to the world
No army may enter that land
That is protected by warden hand
Unless you are forty to one
Your force will soon be undone
Baptized in fire
Forty to one
Spirit of Spartans
Death and glory
Soldiers of Warden
Second to none
Wrath of the Coolies brought to a halt
The 8th of September it starts
The rage of Coolies
A barrage of mortars and guns
Stand past, the bunkers will hold
The captain has pledged his life
I'll face my fate here!
The sound of artillery strike
So fierce
The thunder of guns
So come, bring on all that you've got
Come hell, come high water, never stop
Unless you are forty to one
Your lives will soon be undone
Baptized in fire
40 to 1
Spirit of Spartans
Death and glory

Always remember, a fallen soldier
Always remember, fathers and sons at war

Good need to recon plane
Hey guys, I'm gonna ask this here because I can't find any solutions on the internet. So I'm using procreate for drawing, I spent like half an hour doing stuff with it, went away for 10 mins and it would crash everytime I open the app. Has anyone experienced the same?
The only solution I have found would be to reinstall the app, something I'm reluctant to do since it will delete all my drawing files
you can open the location of the program and look for your drawings in there, copy them to a new folder, reinstal the program, and copy them back
Does apple allow that?
I didn't expressed myself properly, what I meant was if there is any way I could navigate though the tablet's files in the same way as you would do with android
Anyway, I couldn't figure it out so I ended up reinstalling completely the app, lost my sketches in the end
O.o
It’s the corellia speeder trooper’s on the sides
Fucking useless.
Dont talk to him like that or he might drown himself
What in god's name is that?
Motorboat obviously
it boats motor
I know it's a boat motor but it's just on a tank.
I need NC!
It has fine ass...
Mmmm mmm
I need it in my life.
I want modernised one now

@left wind
Nah. It's French. NC-27.
guess i was half-right
think it was in yugoslav service, unless reverse searching made me look dumb
Anything could be on Balkans.
I hate some of their creations so much...
But some are lovely.
Well Yugo did use NCs
M18/T-55 tho
Forgive me watermark, but take a look at this beauty!
nice houses in the background
Left or right?
left
Why You think so?
because why not
they look somewhat similar to what we have
Also mind if I introduce you to our lord n' savior Wladyslaw Lam?
We have similar too. Slavic architecture i guess
Fair enough.
Speaking of similarities.
Do you know that shit that happened at eastern lands with Ukrainian and Polish people living together was pretty similar to what was happening in your part of the world? @left wind
I'm having a hard time trying to remember about it.
Think it was a line of post-WWI conflicts that involved Poland with Russian/far eastern European shitshows.
and/or something about the ukranians not liking living under the rule o' Warsaw
Mhm. The worst thing is that those shit shows were made almost entirely by civilians. No army involved. Maybe some partisans.
yowza
What does that mean?
Same context as damn
Ahh. And we still have some pretty bad memories of those events. That's why we don't get on well with Ukrainians.
I like those warm colors.
And here You can see "Jewish woman with oranges" by Aleksander Gierymski
noishe
But that's actually made with yarn by someone else.
And something that might suit You.
Gdansk Port, by y'guessed it - that one guy I'm for some odd reason obsessed with
they look nice
Yeah.
But.
Search for "Zdzisław Beksiński".
He made some special pieces.
I promise You won't be disappointed.
damn right
anyways, this is gonna be the last time i speak of him ever again, because i'm just slowly turning annoying, and boring - the usual; https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Władysław_Lam
👌🏻
This one is one of my favourite. It's one of the less spooky.
But then these come.
Those are pretty unsettling.
not really
When I watched them on display they were.
I don't like where this is going.
That is drawing of his student Łukasz Banach.
Those are great too.
This is the last I'm posting.
Look at that paper armor on that Japanese thing.
the tankette?
This thing is only supposed to make you feel better
is it good enough to bounce off boolets?
hmmmm
Ok so I tried miniature painting
It’s my first time, any tips would be much appreciated
Thin your paints.
lmao
ok, will do next time
@restive gyro rip drawings
Rip indeed...
Its a great propaganda photo
"Arty noobs getting teached by experienced crew"
@timber beacon #cool-community-stuff ?
Did you just ask us to feature your art?
If we feature it, it'll be one of us deciding to. 
Or is that someone else
Reddit post
Roight
Its small brain time
Yeah, pinging them to try and get them to feature something in #cool-community-stuff is just a good way to get them not to.
This tail turret is sexy.

Poor tanks grew tumors.
I will draw Like new pershing tank
ngl I dont really like the pershing that much
dunno why
I think its how far forward the fighting compartment is
Sherman feels more Iconic and based, and the pattons feel more post war style
I mean, does this tank come to mind together with 'the korean war'?
no, because the korean war doesn't come up in the first place
lol
unlike the based m48/60 which served in 'nam
pattons are hella based
yeah dude
but M1 abrams is based as hell because of the curbstomp that was desert storm
I would modernise hell out of ww2 era medium tanks. Just for the lulz.
real israeli hours
Desert storm is hands down the most epic operation in the past half a century
