Sketchbook: vofff

[vofff]

Hello! I currently study Game Graphic at The Game Academy in Malmo Sweden. I usually post up my things at my blog but none is reading it so it would be better to post up in popular forums instead. It is first time for me posting a sketchbook in forums. So I can start over here at polycount. I hope I understood that sketchbook is for anything that is involved with 2d and 3d.

[vofff]

here are all the paints I did last year.

if you're not looking for crits or feedback go to the bottom of this post, otherwise read on:

pretty good amount of work so far, however to me they feel 'overly textured'
try working on your main forms and line more first to establish the content. you're rendering a lot but much of it feels like it is getting lost. try implementing points of interest/focal points in each composition.

that being said, try to put more thought into the actual composition itself as well.

the coloring itself also feels somewhat flat, despite all the rendering. try to learn more about color in general and how it works in the world. a blatant example would be the predator piece you have.. the armor is not being affected by the environment around it whatsoever. same with the warrior guy. in fact, I don't think there's any lighting in that one. establish a light source and stick to it.

I cannot recommend enough watching Practical Light and Color by Jeremy Vickery.

keep it up. I'm interesting in seeing how you progress.

overall, pretty sweet dude.

[Ferg]

your epic environments are improving a lot, nice use of photos too

[vofff]

here are two new pics I painted. The second one I competed with other students in Game concept challenge. I didnt won:( but I will not give up. Continue painting better and I need feedback to be better. So help me guys what I need to be better on:)
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/Batmobilecopy.jpg
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/mechagodcopy.jpg

[vofff]

bounchfx thx for the crits and advices. I needed them as well:) When I competed with others students and I didnt won even though I spent 24h to paint a warrior god. I felt that I need to become better than this. So what do I need to improve? Need help:)

[DeusExMatteo]

A agree that your enviornments are getting better. Like the lava mine, or whatever the huge sci-fi construction over the lava lake is suposed to be. It's allways nice to see your stuff David and it's very nice to see you posting here, hope you get some good crits :)

Do you have any advice on drawing landskapes? From where have you learned your techniques?

[vofff]

Nah I dont have any techniques to paint environment. The most important thing is to know how to use color and to know shapes. I do speedpaint always because when u have so short time u will get faster to know colors and shapes and later u will discover ur techniques. Do loads of speedpaints and they should not be more than 1h. U will sooner find out about ur true identity of being an artist:D

[A.Kincade]

Wow. Diggin your style. The batman piece was one of my favs. Don't have much critiques. All the pieces are looking great. Keep up the good work.

[vofff]

http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/Sunset.jpgI study some color with this one. And I tried to not take some pictures and texture and different brushes. So I used only round brush and calk brush. It took some time but it was worth it.

[vofff]

I managed to finish the platform. The heli flies a mate did it but the rest texture, modelling is done by me. This is one of the props I did to our shoot em up game.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/platform.jpg

[Diwan]

Man this is some awesome stuff, so far your environment paintings are the best.

[vofff]

hey thanks Diwan. Yea I started to love to painting environments but I never get tired of painting robots.:)

[Marnik]

the amount of improvement you've made on your environments is incredible! Picked up quite a few new pics for my inspiration folder =D

[vofff]

Thx Marnik:) Here is another pic I took when I were in HK. Did some paintover to this one.

http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/Exercise2.jpg
a speedpaint before I go:D

[rooster]

hi man- good progression and photo use as everyone has said :)
one question though- are they all photo comps, or are there some pieces of other concept art mixed in there too? it looks a little bit like it, and if so you'll need to be very careful about your sources.
for example, one of your robot pics looks like it has chunks of a wh40k dreadnought cut in there? and others have a sort of mix of painting styles too, maybe some transformers robot bits mixed in? one looks like a paintover of last years dom war winner.

i like the last one better, as it looks more cohesive and like you've painted it all

edit: on a positive note, you're clearly passionate and have talent, which is why it seems a shame to use other stuff as a crutch- the real exciting stuff comes from developing your own style and techniques

[vofff]

Hello rooster! Yea my previews stuff I have worked with was copy pasted things. I used too much texture overlays and was a little bit worried about my paints will look. But I have put away my fear behind me and started for a couple of weeks ago with only using round brushes. Like my teacher told me "kill my darlings" to evolve as a real artist. I will not using any photosource or conceptart for my further works it would be a little bit shame of me. Since now I know about composition,value,color it is better like u said develope my own style and techniques.

[vofff]

A speedpaint 20min

[engelik]

cool Sketchbook :)
nice color work, i wont say its perfect, but it sure show a lot of potential ;)
the last speed paint seam a bit to bloby, it feel like you used always the same brush size, :p but the color compositon is nice =)

[vofff]

Thx engelik yea I agree it looks a bit bloby:D I should use another brush when it comes straight lines hehe. Here are some new paints I did for a couple days ago.
This one is also a church it took 30min
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/church2.jpg

There's some really nice progression, can definitely see improvement as you post updates :)

I can't really give much crit because I'm not very good at painting but just wanted to post some words of encouragement.

[Neavah]

I'm diggin the character, it looks really good! and I must say she has a smokin hot ass!

however it does look like her ass crack goes too far up her back. I can't see to much of the face, but from what I can see it looks like theres something funny going on with the lips.

Looks good though! :)

[DeusExMatteo]

WOW David, awesome! I really like her pose and balance. How did you start out? Maybe the background could use some more detail and resolution?

Looks really nice, looking forward to your presentation to morrow :)

[danpV]

The figure looks great, but I do have a question: what material is her head-piece made of? I'm getting reads that tell me its a leather or fabric, and I'm getting other readings that are telling me its supposed to be metallic. Its somewhat difficult to figure out.

The environment is also rather interesting! I believe, however, that working in some more damaged structuring supports would prevent that "melty window pane" look that is occuring in your buildings.

Keep posting, I'd love to see more!

[vofff]

Neavah-yes her ass is kinda off. I believe girls dont have that ass:( I mess up later after the posing. So I couldnt sculpt the face I want it. But I hav learned a lesson, and wouldnt do it again I hope:D

Matteo-I start with a zsphere and keep going on and on. I liked the zsphere a lot I dont understand why our class dont like it. Maybe they dont understand the tool yet.

Danpv-Yea I didnt thought about what material she was wearing, a big misstake though. She was wearing of some kind of light armour metall thing. It is hard to sculpt the scratch and even save the important area, I dont wanna mess it up.
The environment I did it in 1 hour quickly, I was more concentrated on the character. The windows I agree they seems to be melted, because I didnt knew what brush can make a crack alpha or what it is.

[vofff]

I need a coffee paint to get some relax:)
Here is a quicky and ugly paint 15min sketches.

like ur dragon, it seems vicious!

[vofff]

Lol its a lion in asia version.
Here is a concept for an environment a final version will be in 3d. I have 3 weeks to do it. Texured,rendered and a beauty render. It should be an asia bladerunner mood style.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/Asiabladerunnercopy.jpg

[danpV]

Sounds like a gorgeous direction! Rock on, vofff!

[vofff]

Thx for the cheering danpv.
Here is a rough lowpoly scene I did today. Just putting some dummies of how the props will be in place. Specs is maximum 15k polys. Now it doesnt look like sci fi nor asia. But I will add more shapes to the houses and put more small details to ground etc.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/lowpolyrough.jpg

[danpV]

If it helps at all, I can sense the Asian direction. So maybe that's working better than you thought! However, yes, you're right about this not feeling sci-fi. I'm actually getting a conflicting vibe of fantasy in the foreground and "ancient technology" in the background.

As you deduced already probably, a lot of this will be properly conveyed through the additional detail elements you intend to introduce. The era of the scene will probably be conveyed first through your use of artificial lights, greebling, and atmospheric perspective (smoggy/raining Blade Runner feel is a dead giveaway). You have the perspective, and you have an awesome height variation, but I'm worried the silhouette of the composition isn't as strong as it can be at the moment, but that can be easily addressed in a couple of tweaks to the background shapes.

Post an update soon, I got a good feeling about this comp!

[vofff]

Here is an update. It was more work than I thought and still it is lowpoly. I had to add a little more details to lowpoly scene. Total polycount is 12898 can I still crank it up to 15k? Hmm I can add more small stuff but I will leave it that away. Does it look like now a sci fi,bladerunner, asia food market scene maybe? Btw thx for the advice danpV but I wonder how will I fit the whole scene into 3x1024 texture maps? I need some advice:)
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/lowpolyrough2.jpg

[vofff]

Wohoo uv map is so fun!!!! Well not!!!
LOL I have uv mapping in 3 days straight. Not with this scene also another project.
It is so boring...I must admit. If it is a shortcut to do this faster and easier.
I hope I will be finish tmrw with Uv map and start with the highpoly modelling. I cant wait to texture it soon.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/lowpolyrough3.jpg

[vofff]

http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/20o30min.jpgI needed some speedies. But still working with the scene.

[Willburforce]

Aw dude... really enjoyed your sketchbook! Solid sketch and 3D skills.

Looking forward to seeing how sci-fi bladerunner market place turns out. :thumbup:

[vofff]

Willburforce thx for the comment^^
Here is an ugly update. I quit uv mapping cause I didnt have enough time. And start to texture it. Deadline is next week friday morning. I have to be done as soon as possible. I will skip zbrush,uv mapp and highpoly and start with unitize. Wish me luck!
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/lowpolyrough4.jpg

[vofff]

http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/lowpolyrough5.jpg
Here is the result of rough diffuse texturing. Tmrw I am starting with cgfx shader and putting some light source.

[vofff]

Hurray I am finally completed with the scene. Here is the result, rendered in marmoengine.

[ngs616]

Great work Voff. I like it a lot. I'd like to see it with some different lighting though. At first this(marmoset shot) looked like it was rendered in UE3. I think the lighting needs a little less saturation and i'd like to see a cold version of it.

Keep up the good work!

[vofff]

hehe thx ngs616 let me see if I have time:)

[vofff]

Lol before I end with the school today I might do some speedpaints. I am so bad at paint humans but it was fun to do it anyway. Here is a sexy hot girl who thinks she is skinny and one is of course the batman. Both are under 1h work enjoy and have great weekend ppl.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/batman.jpg
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/BABEUTANTEXT.jpg

[JaySmitt]

Niiice, Batmans' face seems to be a little wide on his right side and for the hot chick her arms are way too skinny.

[vofff]

Yep I knew it:) But now I have started with a concept to my further work while doing my game project besides. I choose a violent sci fi player who kills other player he meets kinda if u have watched running man and rollerball.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/thumbcopy.jpg

[vofff]

Beside of the project I am going to compete at an event. This is a concept to assassins creed 2. The final work will be shown after 2 weeks.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/Venicecopy.jpg

[vofff]

A lot of shit to do at school. I dont have time to paint a nice picture. I am working with two projects besides and both are deadline next week. Here is a speedpaint, it has been a while painting medieval stuff.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/knightcopy.jpg

[vofff]

I suck at character modeling, not my style. I am disappointed with my work to. Doesnt seems to be correct. My work in progress will be done tmrw I hope.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/mutantplayer.jpg
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/mutantplayer2.jpg

[vofff]

Never give up on painting. I usually hold my paintings quality in standard even if I dont have time or what. To keep my brain on ofc but hard to find a space of time paint maybe before school start or at lunch or after school.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/backyardcopy.jpg

[vofff]

I got a chance to do some mattepaintings. Here is one of them to our rts game.
It is going to be zombie involved with knights at that time there is no cure.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/beautytobeast.jpg

[FlyByKnight]

Superb work all the way through. Appears to be a very strong sketchbook and it's great to see your skills developing and tightening up as you progress.

[vofff]

I like the sense of scale you get from the left painting having the man in there. Maybe the right painting could have used that too.

[vofff]

I agree with that hehe. Well well I have no choice to post this failure since this is my sketchbook anyway. This will not going into my portfolio, a total disaster lol!!

Thx Anders hehe, I hope our game will be awesome just like uncharted2 hahahaha just kidding.

[vofff]

Here is the final work of this house. Hmm I have now time to study that world machine. I looks kinda familiar with mental mill, connecting nodes and stuff.

[sltrOlsson]

First of, nice freakin concepts and paintings! I like them!

I took the liberty to do a paint over on some of your stuff. Your optimization is a bit of. Try to make every edge count for a shape in your meshes. Otherwise the tris count will be unnecessary high.

Then i saw you used crazybump for both the normalmaps and specular. Crazybump is great for surfaces and stuff like that but you allways need to be careful with how you use it and how the outcome will be. You have some normals on stuff that really shouldent, like that poster of the two girls. And then you still got some shadows in their from the diffuse.

Then if you look at the specular you've made. First of it's way to high contrast and second, some of those stuff really shoulden have spec at all. Think about the roof for example, crazy much specular on the parts that where lit in the source photo. Don't really fit into real world conditions.

Maybe you've talked about this in class and stuff all ready. I know how fast things happened on KY-educations (: Hälsningar från PSQ (:

BAD :P
GOOD

Olsson I thank you for the crits and finally some good crits too^^
Yep this work is very old I already did a presentation of this for a long time ago, well not long time but. Yep I kinda only focused on the bloom and forgot the important thing and the house is quite off a bit. It wont happen again:) I dont know If I can go back and correct the scene, we are building our first level in UT-editor and working with our game-project. I wish I had time though:( But thx for the crits anyway it really helped me.
Btw how is it PSQ?

[vofff]

haha, i like your way of painting, ruff and kinda sporadic and still it turns out really cool! :D Fun to see the process.

The tempo is crazy fast up here and i guess it's no different down in Skåne (:
We are about to finish up our first game-project, i'll try to put a presentation up here soon. We are working completely in our inhouse engine Tengine. It has it's ups and downs.

Gonna be great to see what you guys will come up with in you first project! (:

[FlyByKnight]

Loved the speed painting vid and the finished result looks sweet! :)

Inhouse engine? Hmm never heard it before. Well I think you are missunderstanding a bit hehe, We have done several projects now I am studying the second year now:) I should had told you I am doing the second game project for this period hehe. I can spoil a little, we are doing a RTS strategy game it is going to be hack and slash zombie game. If u want to check our previews game visit our schools website. www.thegameassembly.com (http://www.thegameassembly.com)
What kind of games are u guys working on?

[vofff]

Loved the speed painting vid and the finished result looks sweet! :)

thx Flyby^^

[sltrOlsson]

aaaha :P My mistake, sorry for that (: Ge, how many all and all? This is my first period and all and all we'll be making three game-projects.

The inhouse engine is done.... Inhouse :p It's created by Tension and used by Tenstar, aka the company behind PSQ. We don't have any editor, everything is done in Maya and then we export it true Tengine. Then our programmers solves the rest :D

We are working on a game called Eggnappers, silly name - silly game :D It's all about stealing eggs of your competitor. It's meant for some kind of TV-console for we emulate it on a PC with xbox controllers.

Just found a little preview of the characters :) Sets the style.

LOL! Is one of them you? They reminds me of our first year learning Maya, we learned from a book, called Maya Fundamental and the topic theme is the pinguin from the animated movie "Surfs up".

[sltrOlsson]

Haha, no i'm sorry to tell you that all of them are pretty random picked. :P We realized that their was some 3d penguins done all ready and tried to stay away from them (:

[vofff]

Haha, no i'm sorry to tell you that all of them are pretty random picked. :P We realized that their was some 3d penguins done all ready and tried to stay away from them (:

Lol ok:) Do u have something to show? Or it would be good if you start a sketchbook or something:D

Here is our progress so far, we have a lot of work to do to our game hehe.
So far so good I think. As you can see all is ugly right now I am going to change it later after check up tmrw.

Just did a presentation of the game today and a little movie is up. I'm gonna stop stealing your thread now :D U can find the thread about the game here http://boards.polycount.net/showthread.php?t=68463

I think you really could benefit from adding some resolution to those tree/leaf textures and maby ad some more different vegetation. Are you guys planing on using splatter maps for the ground? It would really help breaking stuff up (:

Yes we are going to use splatter maps. And with help of world machine we could really get realistic environment just some few connections with nodes, its like Mental Mill. Have u created ur thread yet? Still wanna see your progress:D

Is the level textured and modeled by you or is it built with UT modules? Sorry for being a little noobie here.. Never spent a single second with UT.. Looking good though (:

A actually thought of staring a progress thread/blog. And i think i will, first a feedback thread that's kinda panic, then a real progress one :P

Well we were currently free to use UT modules since we are noobs and we got 2 weeks to do it, besides our project we werent so focused on UT than our game ofc. But it was quite fun doodling in UT editor you should try it sometime.
Starting a thread is very good there is nothing to get nervous on. Its a progress and ofc a blog.

I am modeling some buildings to our RTS game. And here are the latest work I did recently. I did this in 3 days, kinda slow but I cant help it after christmas holiday:/

[paulsvoboda]

Been taking a look throughout this thread and I have to say, the improvement you've made is really great. I love the speedpainting style and in general your colour schemes have become a lot more subdued and relaxed which have really helped out.
That Assassin's Creed concept and Matte Painting for the zombie level are my favourites.
I would really love to see more 'finished' paintings, not saying speedpaints aren't finished but ones where you really spend a decent amount of time on a single piece (because the ones you've done like this are brilliant).
Keep it up man - I'll continue watching this thread.

[roosterMAP]

u, sir, are very talented. I can only hope i can reach that level of skill. good job!

Hey Paul thx for the comments I really appreciated it:)
I 100% agree with you at some point maybe I should spent more time on only one paint. Right now I have no idea of what cool painting I want to do. But after seeing Avatar I kinda have some inspiriation so let me see what I can do hehe.

[vofff]

u, sir, are very talented. I can only hope i can reach that level of skill. good job!

Everyone can reach that level if only practise ofc:)
Here is a speedy I got bored of listening my teacher today so I painted a random stuff here.

We are some students up here that thought of joining up and try to learn the editor. We'll see how that will work (: Hehe i stared a thread just for a character i'm currently working on, it was posted in panic, not out of panic :D Feel free to check in (:

I really like the little house, but thought of the pixel density and scale of the grass. Maybe something you should look over.

[TheWinterLord]

Its good seeing more swedish students here posting! keep up the good spirits! :)

[vofff]

@Olsson your character is looking good so far. But I dislike the phong u have but you will sooner later add the new texture soon I hope. Yeap I know hehe but it wouldnt matter in a RTS game I blame at progg they complain they cant crank up the quality of texture or the game will size up.

@Winterlord yes there are few of my classmates posting some stuff here.

Hey, about the problem displaying transparency. I had this same problem for a long time, and there is a setting that fixes it, or at least it did for me.

Go to the shading drop-down in the viewport and make sure "Polygon Transparency Sorting" is checked.
That should do the trick, I think.

[DeusExMatteo]

http://i646.photobucket.com/albums/uu183/DeusExMatteo/paintoverdavid.jpg

Hi David! I like the overall style of your tiles, but noticed some details that looked weird to me :) Took the liberty of doing a quick list of those details.

1. imo. this edge looks crazy sharp compared to the rest of the scene and really screams CG-graphics, in a bad way. I would consider a bevel or trim of some kind.

2. You should try and move this piece up a little bit.

3. Bend these (the pointy things on the door) in maybe, so that they fit the wall?

Good luck with the game :)

[vofff]

hELLO MATTEO ops caps lock. Thx for the great advice, I looked the problem and didnt seemed to find the problems. I think I moved the walls not fit the quite proper right but dont worry because they will put into the editor later. The third point they are only a dummy. The most feature is to get the wall finish until deadline until friday:D
Here is an update, the color isnt the major we will have.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/walltile4.jpg

[vofff]

hello again! I left the wall and let it be that way. Now I need to concentrate on the ramp tiles. Here is some simple lowpoly, I am working with texturing now and following waskers concept.
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/ramp1.jpg

[vofff]

An update before I get some sleep, oh these are handpainted, and first too:D
http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv345/vofff/ramp2.jpg

[sltrOlsson]

The texel density of that wall piece, compared to the door, crazy of. How faraway will you be from the wall ingame?

The floor modules looks cool, keep it up! :D

Lol I know hehe I forgot to crank it down to 1024 when I exported them out 2048. It will be so close that your weapon will touch the wall. The programmers will fix the density I hope.

lice lighting on that last painting, needs a bit more detail though :D besides being a speedpaint, i think you should spend a bit more time on it, might end up looking wonderful.

meh, the last paint was from my ipad. Yea I heard so many times saying I should spend more time. Speedpaint is only exercise for my brain. Besides I dont see difference between spending more time on each paint, as we paint something our brain start to develope no matter what crap we do. Its a learning process baby!
Here is one as you requested and others, as I have spent this for like 3 days? Without any texture or crap brushes all are from oldschool. I partly agrees with u saying. There are no shortcuts just take the pen and paint something.

again I still like your enviros
the ships look nice but they seem a bit to de-constructed, maybe you should concentrate on big shapes, interesting silhouettes more
an interesting design comes from playing with big volumes not from details
I received the same advice myself since I also tend to get carried away with details and neglect the overall form

[vofff]

Good thing I learnt something new, I am no good at ships but I will soon reach it.
Hmm I started with black silhouettes, maybe they werent clearly enough.
Ok here is an ipad sketch I did for fun, took approx 3 days.
Step by step, yes tutorial!

[Alismuffin]

Some great stuff here! Some of your works (Mainly earlier ones) remind me of Andrew Jones

[vofff]

that dude?! You mean Android Jones? Nah my stuff are not good enough yet. His stuff is kinda abstract art but cool though.

[Alismuffin]

Yeah well Andrew/Android Jones ^^ (Android is his nickname)

But yeah his art is amazing!
