  1. My newest type of art: Runescape Papercrafts

     

    These are models edited in Metasequoia, then "Unfolded" in Pepakura.

    Templates can be found in my DA page if you want to make your own RS papercrafts :)

  2. Glad you guys liked it, I may make more if I find more free time :P

     

    Riemis - Metasequoia is a 3D modeling program that helps with "cleaning up" complicated models and Pepakura is specifically designed to "unfold" 3D models into 2D shapes you can cut and glue together.

     

    Trojann - Thanks, maybe a paper Dagg King will happen someday :P

     

    Dire - I'm surprised Jagex doesn't sell models/figures of their game, people may like those more than the T-shirts lol.

     

    This papercraft took about a weekend to "unfold", and a few hours a day over the course of 2 weeks to put together.

  3. Been a while since I've made some art, mostly due to being busy, but I felt like trying something new this time: Papercrafts

    This papercraft was designed using Pepakura and Metasequoia, and put together with paper and glue. He stands at roughly 40 cm tall.

     

    Credit to Jagex for Jad's origins, hope you like this one. :)

  4. Thanks everyone, I wish I had had more time I pretty much had to draw this over 1 entire weekend lol.

     

    Tripsis - Digipainting is very close to pencil drawing which is cool, so I'll keep making art that way. I'll still try to find time for some pixel art tho :P

     

    Sir - Thanks, I agree I'll try to make a funny pic sometime :)

  5. My entry for the Runefest Gallery competition for RS. This is my first digipaint, glad Jagex liked it, hope you do too. :)

    Congratz to all the winners and everyone else who participated, it's always nice to have these contests to push me to try new methods. I enjoyed digipainting this, hopefully I'll find more time for more digipaints.

     

    Program: Gimp

    Tablet: Wacom Bamboo

  6. Only recently read about this, took a test and got the result as an INTP.

     

    The description of INTP's was pretty damn accurate about me, specially the part about not requiring a lot to keep me happy, and always had trouble with small talk. Reading the descriptions of other types has helped me understand why others are the way they are.

  7. Those are real good, you're very talented at shading, specially their hair which imo is one of the toughest things to learn to draw.

     

    The only feedback I have is I suggest trying to add a background to a piece in the future.

  8. I interpret maturity as compromise between seriousness and humor. Life's short and it isn't going to be fun to be serious the entire time. However, this pretty much depends on how much respect you have for other people, so you'll know how to act in any situation accordingly.

     

    In OT, maturity is fairly existant, immaturity tends to be dismissed or ignored in order to let the poster know his attempts at attention fail.

  9. Well it's only been a few days since this update, one can only speculate about the future, best thing to do is let things run as they are now and see what happens in the long run. Worst case scenario, Tipit drops the deal and we go back to the way things were.

     

    Jagex needs this more than Tipit does. Not like Tipit ever needed advertisement on the official game website to successfully attract players :P

  10. I don't visit other fansites much but for the size, content, and community that Tipit has, I was surprised it didn't recieve "platinum" status. The one advantage to this is that it'll keep the community focused on really wanting to make this the best fansite of all. Perhaps if we did earn platinum right away, we may take our victory for granted and lose that drive that keeps us wanting to be the best. I'm sure the admins want the best for the community with this decision, we will see what comes up for us in the future in terms of content from Jagex.

     

    In the end, I'm pretty sure most of the Tipit community members are confident in their own fansite to know they don't need a "title" or "rank" to prove how great this fansite is. Jagex can rank the fansites as they wish, but the players will decide which is the best purely by which fansite helps them the best way possible through content and community.

  11. Thanks for the comments everyone, glad you all liked the new sig. :P

     

    I'm always open for new ideas and suggestions. The funny thing is that I already do own a Wacom Bamboo tablet (b-day gift from family), I tried it a bit with Gimp but didn't get into it that much. It's tough to get used to the interface, it's different from regular pencils and from the mouse lol. I don't see why I couldn't do some digipaint with it and keep doing pixelart with the mouse, what'll take me the longest time is gonna be learning all the buttons and menus of Photoshop and Gimp lol. I see what was meant tho - you can add more detail to a pixel art signature by digipaint to truly make it "high definition", but my aim is to keep my signatures strictly "pixel-art" and just improve their quality in that style.

     

    The tutorial idea - I've thought about it a few times but I'm not sure how effective I can be at making one. In my opinion, it's best to try to develop drawing through practice and learning from mistakes and criticism. I'd say half the work is just being observant about how the world works in terms of dimensions, perspectives, proportions, shadowing, and so on. Once you notice those properties in everything around you, you can plan an artwork better and the details tend to be the "easier" part since they just finish up the mainframe of the artwork. I'll see how I can most effectively make a tutorial for pixelart while still leaving the viewer room to develop their own style/techniques and learn how to improve on their own.

     

    So I want to keep making some new pixelart but depending on free time I can't say when the next one's coming. I'll just post it here when it's finished I guess lol.

  12. Thanks for comments everyone :)

     

    Felix - Good idea, I did just that :P

     

    Soa - I worked on this sig a couple hours a day over a week or so. The first sig took like 1 hour lol.

     

    Tripsis - Thanks :P I do feel like making more pixel art these days.

     

    Dark Aura - I saw pixel art from other people like Jeppoz and Your_Mother and thought it was a cool concept to make RS scenes through MSpaint. Since I had previous experience drawing IRL, I figured it wouldn't be too hard to "learn" to draw with the mouse. I enjoyed it and the requests for signatures inspired me to keep improving on my pixelart.
