Title: Sierra style art
Post by: Construed on Mon 20/02/2012 01:09:02
Looking for good tutorials on sierra style art, Mostly quest for glory style stuff.
I hear alot of it was done by scanning oil paintings and reducing the colors, but I'm intrested in all techniques.

Yeah, that tutorial doesn't look too bad for a beginner--but if you really want to get a nice-looking, textured painting, lay off the Smudge tool.  In fact, never use it EVER.  It's a crutch that makes everything it touches look like blurry shit.

Second those hugs. It happened to me once and was annoying enough when I had three backups in place (because I'm a paranoid git)

But sadly I can't draw for crap so can't offer you any real help  :P

Thanks guys,
Haha jared, my names jared too.
I'm going to try to start a new game hopefully with some bgs and characters from nightfable, sort of a medevil village woodsman adventure,If not for her offer to contribute some images i probley wouldnt do anymore game design.
The crash was a hard blow taking away many days of hellish coding that i wish never to do again in my life.
But perhaps something fresh and not so copy-catish will inspire me to continue game dev....
