For a really really long time I was so overly stressed about being "right", how I shouldn't "Cheat", if I wanted to do an environment it would have to take meticulous planning. Of course I couldn't do much. Nowadays I'm much more free, and I'm far more interested in just getting to where I want to be, rather than worrying how I got there. I wish someone had told me years ago, haha

don't cheat bro

@CoffeePot 4 жыл бұрын

You kind of misunderstood my comment. I mean using things like images, textures and 3D to get to where you want.

I totally understand what you mean and agree.

@demiurg999 4 жыл бұрын

I believe that before you start "cheating" you should learn how to create it without "cheating", and after this you are free to do whatever you want to speedup your work process.

Although the giant rock does sit at the centre point of the composition your eyes will always follow the steps to where the character stands .... that's where the interest lays and it just works. I absolutely luv it ... great work!
