[Untitled pig head]

Minecraft!

mematron responds:

Or is it craft mines? O_O

[Sight]

Interesting. For some reason it reminds me of like a painting image mixed with depth information from a motion capture camera.

Cyborg eyes

[mematron]

seems kind of 80s cyberpunky to me.

Like what they thought electronics would look like back then

mematron responds:

I was testing my subliminal subduction techniques by adding grain to the picture, muting the color and the specific 3/25 view to give it a look from a 1980's electronics ad.

I was around in the 80's, ahhh, i was even around in the 70's - all of the 1970's :)

It's good to see my Kung-Fu is still strong despite what a few others don't get what I'm trying to accomplish with my work.

You, guys got it. For me, concept is more important than technique. Hell, I have all the techniques down. Once you get passed that it's about applying your skills to make something new. There are a ton of really good concept artists on this board and on a few notable others, that kick serious ass but most of them are not doing it for a living. That blows excessive amounts of goat.

I don't think it's hard to find good artists. I feel it's hard to find artists that stand out from the flock.

My early college art teachers were fine artists. The rest of them - comprised of biologists, astronomers, engineers, programmers, writers, actors, illustrators, animators, sculptors, industrial designers, psychologists, astrophysicists, musicians, philosophers, architects, video editors, network engineers and the list goes on.

What I know about life. This very finite existence humanity has been blessed with, is that no matter what you do, always do it from the heart. If your integrity is based on monetary gain then you are weak. Why, because monetary systems are transitory. Your strength is tied to too many moving parts. That makes you weak because you have no center.

Nothing wrong with money. If your goal is to make a s#%*¥! ton of money and you succeed then you are a success. Some put me in that category. But, check this out. It was never about the money. It was always about the art.

If you want to be an artist, BE AN ARTIST. Be warned, art is powered by love and passion. If you are lacking in any those qualities you will fail. Anyone can learn technique. Some people are naturals at certain styles and techniques. But being an artist is perpetual. You were born that way. It's as natural as blinking. Once you tap into that nothing else will matter. You will be in the driver seat, being able to go wherever and whenever you want.

This is what's behind everything, EVERYTHING that I do.

[Catapult v2]

Looking interesting!

I wonder what you have planned

I also wonder do you use Daz3d, Poser or Marvelous designer?

I'm trying to get into making legit CGI movies and am working on learning the programs along with setting up some mocap stuff

[Catapult]

Pretty neat but the bowl still has those noticeable angles from the 3d modeller

mematron responds:

[Generic Mario Joke #1312]

I feel bad for that one cloud....

Potatoman responds:

[Coffee Shop 2]

Wow. I like the grayscale. It reminds me of Noir type movies. Are you going to color this with Piranesi?

Stuff like this makes me wish I went to art school and took it more seriously

mematron responds:

It's going to stay black and white. Textures will not be flat but actual geometry that will interact with light and shadow. I'm taking the road less traveled because that is my job as an artist. I challenge everyone on this site to take that route. Defy the conventional. That's what makes you Human, your imagination.
