at least you arent trying to communicate it in german lol
as we germans would say: "Deutsche Sprache, schwere sprache!"
(german language, difficult language)
torpid glade
bruh as a russian english seems stupid to me
but german at least sounds cool almost all the time
jolly fulcrum
As a Hungarian I überate both of you
in spelling
in words
in grammar
in sounding
torpid glade
from what i hear german is very region based so even different cities might have different dialects. russian dont rly have that thankfully
shut tundra
trust me - german is a worse mess than english
ah the german "dialects"
stares in lower saxon
most of the german "Dialects" or Platt - are technically other languages...
some are alot closer to dutch than german
tho yes - even when speaking vulgar german we differ alot by region...
luckily im a filthy hannoveranian which means mine isnt actually shit
torpid glade
lol
so how big of a difference from 1 the same but funny to 10 different languages with similar words mixed in
shut tundra
eh.... depends
Platt/Lower Saxon/Lower German literally varies from village to village
the more west or north you go the more it goes away from Standard German
torpid glade
ok what is the range of difference
shut tundra
from 3 to 10
torpid glade
holy
shut tundra
tho, i am somewhat capable of understanding platt - it isnt my strong point
torpid glade
so all the way like russian vs polish
shut tundra
kinda
torpid glade
hmm
shut tundra
like - most germans could make out a bit of platt (maybe a bit more than dutch) but not much
especially when they are from the city
shut tundra
Platt or Platt Deutsch (or the various other names it goes by) are local 2nd mother languages
its like Irish speaking english and Gaelic
shut tundra
just Platt and Hoch Deutsch are alot more similar than English and Gaelic
its kinda like a person having both Dutch and German as their mothertongue
Dutch and Platt being rather similar
and Platt technically being the bridge between German and Dutch
torpid glade
so im assuming its home region is between the two as well
shut tundra
yeah
Platt is only spoken in western North Germany and maybe some bit into Holstein
therefore having the name Niedersächsisch/Lower German(/saxon)/Neder Ditsch
torpid glade
just histories of languages are half the fun
shut tundra
yep

halcyon lantern
I think the shoulders are slightly off compared to the ribcage/torso
Move them both slightly
or at least the one on the left (here)
(right side on the original)
head and neck would follow
so a bit more like this
I'd also give them a bit more hips but that's just me 👁️ https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/557339213138362379/797558321967398912/unknown.png
I think the censor-system is picking up something and I can't actually post the thing
Neck could be slightly longer too if you want
remote lynx
I'd also give them a bit more hips but that's just me 👁️ https://media.discorda...
Imo while I get feeling that the ratio of waist and hip is a bit off, they don't have to be that thicc
Making the waist a little bit slimmer would do the trick too
halcyon lantern
Imo while I get feeling that the ratio of waist and hip is a bit off, they don't...
That's the issue of uhh... well me being me 😎 💦
I keep drawing pears
You mean more like so?https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/557339213138362379/797561367070375936/unknown.png
What, now it decides to show the picture?
Dumb discord discriminating against thickness.
torpid glade
i think i fixed it some more
no i just realized the left arm is a little funky/ too small
halcyon lantern
Yeah I tried to make it a tad more proportioned
But I think it's rather the other arm being too long
the one on our left, or the character's right arm
halcyon lantern
Keep in mind how long your arm has to be
Imagine it straightened.
It would need to reach the half of the thigh with its finger tips, if the character was entirely straight (both arms and hips)
torpid glade
halcyon lantern
Another thing I think is that the waist indent could be a bit higher
torpid glade
ye
halcyon lantern
Basically the point where it dents in
(Usually it's at the same level as elbows btw, you can use that as a reference for both)
torpid glade
im just starting to learn so thx for the help
wait i cant tell where the ribcage ends
its like half a tidie down right
halcyon lantern
Usually the same level for these
(one second)
Generally it's the easiest way to tell your character's arm length
(though it can rise if the shoulders are raised)
I did post a drawing trying to tackle some of the issues a bit more above
you can check where I put the indent
But basically
That's what I'd go for
torpid glade
so its roughly between the end of the gut and the top of the shoulders
depending on the thicccnes
the right arm seems off now
cant rly tell how exactly tho
daring ferry
Oh yeah, drawing with trigonometry
torpid glade
it was forearm length
no wonder the reference is better ive been drawing for like 2 days
i dont even know what the hell are hands
halcyon lantern
Personally don't like thicc thighs.

Could try and make the sides of the canvas part go in for uniformity with the top with the pieces that are 2x1 with the little half out piece.
That makes no sense but they’re the pieces that you’d use as a rail for sliding.

@cunning kettle

Well, ya know how on a canvas covered truck, there’s a metal frame and the canvas is tight around it?

On any truck in real life (and on the ones in game) the canvas never strictly gets flattened to the bars.
It curves inwards.
Similar to what you already have on the top.

Yeah I really don't care about that small little detail, I might mess with it though

It’s not super important, but I don’t think it would be difficult and it might make it look cool.

Little bit bold but I want to incorporate some kind of wolf feature into the gas mask or uniform as it represents their unit so I tried to incorporate a crude drawing of a Wolf's jaw on the filter itself as its tricky doing a wolf face on the whole mask without interfering with the eyepieces
Logically it would make no sense as to how many filters would they have to paint if they wanted to remain intimidating

rancid carbon

runic linden
Scaled up the wolf logo to make it even more prominent, I'd say it's war crime o'clock then
viscid haven
@runic linden if you wanted to have a simple design you could consider putting it on the helmet
Gas Mask filters are interchangeable things like Magazines, it wouldn't be as advantageous to paint one of them over painting the helmet, which should be a permanent part of a soldier's kit. And with the way you drew the helmet there is a fair bit of empty space to put it.
torpid glade
@runic linden id first work on proportions even if its a style you are going for things need to be consistent in relation to each other: his left forearm and biceps dont match, his legs are different widths, his pockets are different the gasmask eyes are different. - things like that (colouring is cool but making sure the shape is right is very important)
go back a little (use the mirror tool and find a reference it helps a lot and makes it easier to catch mistakes)
id also start with making loads of figure sketching(basically simple outlines) until you feel confident than making a full piece would be easier(and p.s im shite myself im just spitting thing you can improve and maybe how you can them)

Warden flag
It got good feedback from the lore chat, but personally to me it could use some sort of herald or emblem, like an eagle or hawk
you could maybe try putting a coat of arms sorta like 1/4th of the way through like spain
rancid carbon
the polish flag has an interesting way about that
It has a variant for like navy or something with the emblem
high ledge
See, I like the polish flag when it has the eagle on it
I like flags with emblems
Like the German state flag with the German eagle is awesome
high ledge
The presidential flag of Russia uses its coat of arms, which I love
rancid carbon
either way the caoivish flag could theoretically be used the same way
rancid carbon
for example expedition forces could have a variant with the emblem
while domestic flags are just the blue and white
high ledge
The only thing I need to keep is the six stripes
Cuz the stripes represent each state within the confederacy
The color and emblem needs to be worked on
But the stripes stay
They don’t have to be horizontal, they just need to stay
imo the colors look a bit too dark
as for the stripes you could maybe try moving that red into solely the upper left as a canton and have the yellow shield thing sit inside of it
though i know it's hard to do that without people making parallels to the US
Yeah, that would be an issue
high ledge
this's a quick revamp sorta thing i made of it with the saudi sword as a placeholder

rancid carbon
Long Rifle chambered in .57 produced by the elusive Vapenskapare. Designed for hunting the most dangerous game, yet many have found places amongst the shelves of the elite. Each of these weapons is meticulously crafted by smiths, and while similar in appearance, contrast in design and expertise. This particular firearm is equipped with a 6x18" side-mounted sight, straight pull bolt and a sword bayonet mount. While the weight and recoil of these weapons are oppressive, those capable of using them can use them to great effect.

The Skymningsögon clan has a custom of keeping a token of their first combat kill on them at all times. Kateda got her ears at age 12, after being ambushed by a massive North Caoivish Lynx. Her witness was Koedem, who was injured in the encounter.

yea

would explain her headphones/earmuffs
rancid carbon
And is this an arquebus?
Is basically just a massive rifle. chambers standard rounds (14.5mm) so its not a arquebus, but if you tried shooting this gun without being huge or being very stabilized you would probably damage yourself. However, this particular clan did use arquebuses when fighting the hands back hundreds of years ago. They are very tradition based, so their firearms didnt really evolve much in terms of styling, but did stay up to date with modern amenities (cartridges, stripper clips, bolt action, ect.)

thats why I use photoshop and just pust stuff on separate layers or just have different PSDs
halcyon lantern
I do, but I separate my stuff into folders, basically to just have everything neatly put instead of just a million different folder/layers

Using vector art is also pretty nice if you’re bothered by pixels

does anyone know who made this?
i've had it as my wallpaper since last year, and I wanted to include it in a project but idk who made it
I found it in Community Highlights 83, and it says it was made by 'Jacklessthanthree' but I can't find them on the discord https://www.foxholegame.com/post/community-highlights-83
nevermind found who made it

Yeah it’s Jack<3#8193 if anyone else wants to check out his stuff. Super talented.

My man now wears a scarf
rancid carbon
scarf solidarity 😔 ✊

Scarf people unite
oh and I fixed the hand a little bit by making it a tad bigger
makes his hand a bit more bolder than the other but I'll fix that before colouring
carmine jolt
scarves exude bottom energy. that is all

also if you can't draw by hand x)

that doesnt mean she isnt one

I mean I guess she doesnt look like a mass murderer in that drawing
put armor on with an SMG and you'll have your mass murderer

What are you trying to draw
willow rapids
It's concept art work process
carmine jolt
make sure to make your sketch so dirty and incongruent that you have no idea where to put the lineart 
rancid carbon
make sure to make your sketch so dirty and incongruent that you have no idea whe...

carmine jolt
there is no order in the first layer
rancid carbon
it sucks on paper cause you have to be so light with the pencil to avoid smudging 😔
daring ferry
What are you trying to draw
Heavy infantry, kinda like the soviet shock troops
carmine jolt
draw light, head bright

Ok
rancid carbon
especially when rubbing things out
dont rub ur thing on paper smh
daring ferry
Smh
runic linden
well how else do i fix my mistakes
daring ferry
Use an eraser
carmine jolt
i am going to rub
going to rub my peen on this A4 paper
rancid carbon
I am actually concerned about your sketch layer
all is fair in love and war
carmine jolt
I am actually concerned about your sketch layer
shhshh shhh
it's about the results not the process
buoyant crest
now I want to share my sketch layers lol
rancid carbon
judging has a habit of being extremely entertaining
buoyant crest
I am just going to pick a random drawing and show its sketch layer
rancid carbon
most of my sketch layers are paper drawings so they are already pretty fleshed out, I was looking for a worse one cause I know I have it
willow rapids
rancid carbon
I also still suck so most of my sketch layers are fundamentally flawed and thus an embarrassment even moreso than the one I posted
runic linden
Let there be colour
runic linden
Tbh if it were he'd have a hole through his head the very next second
rancid carbon
heh
buoyant crest
lol
rancid carbon
no yeah I start by chunking my idea out kinda like that
I just add a lot more to my sketch layer
so stuff gets erased and covered
prob a habit from paper drawing
buoyant crest
actually, these are two sketch layers; the face detail is a seperate layer so I didnt have to struggle with the base for the face as well
carmine jolt
tutorial says to break down drawing into simpler shapes
follows
drawing no longer makes sense to me
buoyant crest
F
runic linden
makes abstract art instead
rancid carbon
do you use a pen when sketching?
I cant stand pens, pencils make it so much more forgiving lol
buoyant crest
4 for background, 4 for the person, 2 for general test of shapes
runic linden
i get lost in *4* layers
should name your layers
rancid carbon
bob, doug, carol, and kalimoire
runic linden
buoyant crest
drawing ended here
carmine jolt
"Layer1"
"Layer2"
"Layer3"
"Layer4"
"haha yeah"
buoyant crest
just use folders
rancid carbon
yeah names mhm
left wind
Unholy amount of layers
buoyant crest
Colour, foreground lineart, background lineart, foreground sketch, background sketch
carmine jolt
yeah names mhm
livin' on the edge
buoyant crest
or actually, all line art is grouped, group 1 is a reference grid now I look at it
rancid carbon
Redlining, as you might say
buoyant crest
I should redo this drawing tbh, it is a quite cool sketch
carmine jolt
is it a bad thing i tend to have less layers as possible
buoyant crest
is it a bad thing i tend to have less layers as possible
not at all
runic linden
I mean less layers means you dont get lost but it can be harder to correct some mistakes
carmine jolt
yeah i guess that's the downside
runic linden
My advice is that for each article of clothing on the person's body, that is a layer itself
buoyant crest
it has a lot of ups and downsides; in the end it comes down to preference and what makes you comfortable
I know people who do a new layer ever other 4 lines
runic linden
for example on the above image I have a layer for the vest, a layer for the mask, helmet, scarf etc
rancid carbon
idk ill have to hear from the big wigs
I tend to chunk by delicacy I guess
Ie clothes are massive so their shading/ coloring gets combined
while facial stuff gets more individual layers
but I actually have no idea what im doing besides some youtube vids and intense staring at the screen
carmine jolt
if you have no idea what you're doing, you're doing the right thing
runic linden
oh good so Im not the only one looking at google images the whole time
carmine jolt
everytime i think i already know what i'm doing it ended up looking fucked sometime later on
runic linden
the trick is to convince yourself that in the end itll look good
buoyant crest
This is how I tend to do my layers. I actually tend to put the colouring layer (in this case layer 15) on top and use a 'darken' layer option, but that did not work well with the fact I ahd a convoluted background going on
carmine jolt
fuck i need to know how to color like that
buoyant crest
also, layer blood is wrongly named, and is a composite layer
runic linden
Colours like half the solution, the rest is up to shading
buoyant crest
it is the actual colour layer
runic linden
you can just add a base colour and shade away with shadows and lighting
carmine jolt
lmfao mistaking layers as another layer. a classic blunder
runic linden
Oh mein gott yeah
rancid carbon
the two things that kill my sanity
drawing on the wrong layer
and drawing with the wrong color
buoyant crest
it is quite easy, just colour in with a flat, then use clipping masks to add shadows
carmine jolt
screws up on color
tries to erase a portion of it
lineart also gets erased
mfw
buoyant crest
and then a cliping 'overlay' layer on that with all the colours
rancid carbon
I swear to god it looks black but surprise red was at 5
and you can tell
heres some better org on my part
carmine jolt
wait wtf how
rancid carbon
clip at layer
buoyant crest
clipping masks
rancid carbon
buoyant crest
and layer settings
two most important functions of digital drawings
if you know how to work these, you can basically make anything
it takes a lot of experimenting, but it really improves your digital art
buoyant crest
lol
carmine jolt
goddamn digital art aaaa
return to pencil and paper
buoyant crest
It looks scary at first, but it actually takes few effort to learn it well; with pencil drawing it requires you to do everything by hand over and over again, while this takes just one drawing and some clicking around
carmine jolt
i remember my pinkie finger and my middle finger on my free hand suddenly twitched when i made a mistake on paper
carmine jolt
got fucking pavlov'd by digital art
carmine jolt
and it allows to digitally colour your drawings as well
yeah digital has the convenience of not buying shit and having a second chance of unfucking color
rancid carbon
I hate digital honest
buoyant crest
using filters to clear my drawing, then adding a fix layer, then a group with all the colours on multiply
runic linden
If you can’t draw a hand, just pull a Walt Disney and draw gloves on your guys hand
carmine jolt
a small price to pay for quality
buoyant crest
dont look athe quality of line art, was an experiment lol
carmine jolt
don't get me fucking started on hands
rancid carbon
hands arent bad until they are
idk how it works
like sometimes they are fine
and then other times hells gates open
and say you shall not hand
buoyant crest
my entery for the first foxhole art contest was digitally coloured
runic linden
I don’t even bother with hands
runic linden
I even used to not draw the whole outline of the hand so it looks like the guys amputate his hands by the wrist
carmine jolt
my entery for the first foxhole art contest was digitally coloured
when was the last art contest held
runic linden
Two years ago I think
buoyant crest
not last year sadly
carmine jolt
well
