How do I do scenery ? I wanna master it but I'm not sure what to practice aside from perspective. Do I just draw what I see or what I envision ? Pic related it's not me but it's similar to the stuff I wanna draw

Well first of all that's 3D so there's your first problem
Secondly the actual 2D art is better from that game than the 3D, pic related.
Thirdly you're gonna need to know composition, values and colours. Copy master paintings then apply what you learned to your own work. Here's a few master painters to get you started
>Albert Bierstadt
>Thomas Cole
>William Louis Sonntag
>Thomas Moran

In the art spirit, Robert Henri writes about drawing scenery. He says that you should first have an idea in mind, and then use the environment to convey that. What are you trying to convey, anon?

Are you trying to convey tension? Chaos? Serenity? Happiness?

As an example, let's say I'm trying to convey passion in a landscape. I might decide to put in a river and make it roar and flow roughly. If I add trees, I make them bend to a strong wind. I draw a sunset of red with stormy clouds gathering in the distance.

Pick a theme, the actual scenery is there to support and illustrate said theme.
Two people can look at the same scenery and depict two different themes. One might look at an ocean and draw the waves and their gentle lapping at the rocks. The other might draw the solidity and strength of the rocks as the waves break upon them.

THEME NIGGA, WHAT IS YOUR THEME?

>How do I do scenery ?

download the following essential software

>cloudcreator1.4extended
>skyboxdesigner3.56
>treemachine_ultra
>waterfall_toolbox_professional
>oneclick_landscape_2.0
>marvelous_rockmaker_ultra
>pixologic_grass_arsenal
>autodesk_fogmachineII

then play around with the sliders for 5 minutes, click that 'assemble and compile' button, and voila. you are done. industry standard garbage on your screen.

You can always count on bitter cunts to whine about the state of the industry in every fucking thread.

>> No.2200802

>>2200782

don't forget the additional plugins:

>leafrotator_exe
>grass_angle_definer.app
>air_particle_creator1.2b
>bluetint_filter_factory_6.55

and most importantly

>bush_texturizer_unlimited

this reduces the amount of time it takes you to create industry standard garbage from 3 to 2 minutes. just make sure you then add

>my_personal_signature_plugin

so other people can know your industry standard garbage, which is completely indistinguishable from everyone elses industry standard garbage, is actually yours.

Gotta take credit where credit is due!

I couldn't care less what concept artists photobash together, because I'm not trying to get a job in concept art.

Enjoy your failed dreams while people who can quickly produce the results their employers want get jobs.

I don't want to be a conceptartist though. I don't want to be a musician either, but I think I'm still allowed to dislike what the music industry is.

And then you can helpfully shove it down the throat of everyone asking for advice on how to play guitar or something, too! I'm sure that'll help.

what if I lack talent ? can I compensate with hard work ?

>> No.2201055

>>2201047

Yes.

Personally, and this'll probably piss some people off, I'd maintain that talent is a real thing. But it's not "bam I can draw", it's just being able to understand and grasp the concepts more easily. Anybody can do it, for some it takes longer than others because they approach or think about it differently.

Even if you don't have a 'disposition' to art you can git gud. It's a skill.

Yep. I'll get a fucking academy award in 20-30 years and I'll fucking stand there and say 'You fucking cocksuckers who started this photobashing shit... I hope you all burn in hell' And I'll drop some names too. I swear on me mum that's happening. Just gotta work on that academy award.
