Machineflesh 2D Challenge Entry: Aaron La'Gere


#14

I use a logitech mouseman dual optic, no tablet. I use photoshop cs. If you look at teh edges you cna tell I make up for the lack of fluid lines by accessive smudging. Despite that I would say I have one of the smoothest mouse hands I’ve ever seen.


#15

Heres an update.


#16

oof Sorry for the horrible spelling and grammer before I was temporarily retarded.


#17

Just wanted to come show my support for your entry. :smiley: I think this is looking dope :thumbsup: Your mouse skills still amaze me. Cant wait to see the finished image. Keep it up, Aaron. I look forward to seeing the updates.

GL in the contest.


#18

Thanks Kar0…It’s going pretty slow right now but I have motivation with that cintiq to hurry things up.


#19

I suppose it would be a good thing to have a lower half on the body.


#20

Hey dude, COOL metalic surfaces!

I visit your site, congratulations, very cool!!!

well,

I keep my eyes in your job!:thumbsup:

Keep this good work!

see the TEMPLAR project


#21

whoa nice pic there. I think you should hurry it along :slight_smile: challenge is ending soon.


#22

Yea I know, I just have so much other stuff to do it’s hard to fit time in.


#23

I think it’s about ready for the next step, I may have to go back and change a few things or add some but that isn’t a problem.

I’ve decided to wait until the final image to give the story behind the image.


#24

oO i think it looks much tighter with the added lower part. it’s looking real good. :] i knew you’d wait until the end to give us the story… building up the suspense aren’t ya? lol :stuck_out_tongue:

anyway, looking good. :thumbsup:


#25

Well that plastic render could be very cool if you had details, at this stage it’s a bit blurry.

good luck


#26

Plastic Render? I’m not sure what you mean. The details are there but the image is extremely shrunk down, when I start working on the second layer of custom textures the original details will stand out in contrast.


#27

:hmm: perhaps bonestudio is thinking you used that plastic wrap filter thing that PS has ?? or maybe I’m wrong, and misunderstood what he was talking about. :shrug:

anyway, your mouse airbrushing skills own. so, finish it already! lol.


#28

Maybe, but I doubt it given the context. I have 6 days off work starting now so I should be able to get most of it done by then.


#29

You can’t see from this shot but I have tightened up the areas and have started the coloring process.

I am working on a few highly detailed textures for the skin and mechanical components.


#30

Just figuring out the skins worn look.


#31

:slight_smile: I really like the feel of your sketches and colour WIP .

great style …especially with the addition of the latest skin textures - really compliments the softer feel of your earlier WIP

keep the good work coming:thumbsup:


#32

I have to have the texture and feel of the skin just right.


#33

I don’t want to ruin the final image by making the final color the same since I figure the final image and the final color to be about the same for most.
