#2024年自分が選ぶ今年の4枚
I drew a lot in 2024 but mostly for work 🥹 Though there are still plenty of areas I need to improve on, I'm really happy with the progress I've made this year. Hope to draw my OC and fanart more next year like I used to though..
The town of Ngadzekiitsa in the upper areas of Takura forest.
It was the de-facto captital of the Takura Korkins before the liberation of Takurium.
It is built just south of the Old Takura Temple.
@MirrorNells yes, the ones i shared up there are the normals for miqo, but this is the normal (1) and mask (2) for male viera face 2 per example, you can't draw outside of the mask areas (blue), it's limited, unless you make a custom sculpt and stuff and i don't have that kinda knowledge
@ponkosei Lighting in cell shading is simplified, no smooth gradients, shadows are mostly just hard edged areas on an object.
Full rendering is moreso where it actually tries to emulate more realistic lighting.
The typhoon seems to have disappeared, although some areas suffered disaster damage!
Perhaps nothing worse will happen. We are relieved.
The following is a general summary of my personal philosophy regarding painting. It is a verbalization of my own research and standards for areas that I did not understand well before, and then I actually tried it out.
SHADOW OF THE ERDTREE REVIEW
I arrived at Gravesite Plain and felt a sense of elation and eagerness to start my adventure, the music started easing in and I was on my way.
I explored new areas and met new characters, there was much to do if I was to uncover Miquella's plans.
drawing in a good simpler style is so hard man my brain goes straight into adding lil details and rendering areas that no one will see😭
going thru style crisis rn im gonna bounce back trust me!
[ 🇯🇵 JP TRIP 2024 ]
Just landed a few days ago, gonna be staying in some areas of Japan for 2 weeks 👁️👄👁️
Will post some cool pics & nom noms if I remember under here ⬇️
@WKonig0 I would like to ask a question, is this what you mean?
Just as highlights move depending on the position of the person (camera) looking at them, reflected light also changes its bright areas depending on its position.
In other news, ready to work on this commission.
Made a new shader as well, so hopefully glossy areas will look better and behave like in-game.
i colored in the areas where i started painting first and i think this perfectly encapsulates where i focus on lmao
@bug_png I'll use my model as an example - all of the red areas gotta be covered on Twitch so that it's TOS friendly
I have been so out of touch with Genshin content news I didn't realize they were adding whole new Liyue areas
Oh yeah, if any of yall care, this is KINDA how I draw hair. Since I always change how it looks in dif drawings, it may differ. And I also sometimes use the characters skin tone for areas closest to the face
