lol i know that at a school in lachine u can take graph classes with snyper lol thats one heck of a class man!
One way of doing 3-D styles also is to set 2 focal points(same as vanishing point) one at either side of your paper, and use one point to construct your lettering, and the other one to construct your 3-D. You can also change directions of the letters, so some letters are on the 3-D focal point, and the 3-D would be lead to the other focal point, so you get really good depth to your style. I think this makes sense, i will try to post some examples of my art. in the mean time check out www.daim.org or www.neckcns.com.
if you have any artistic talent at all then shadowing and the 3rd dimension should come natural to you but the thing ith the vanishing point does help alot they teach it in basic art
uuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh... [Broken External Image]:http://www.strikefear.com/archives/lurch1.jpg but seriously...what everyone else said. edit: and neck is one of the pimpest 3d artists. pimpest, is that a word? :blink:
i have done wuite a bit of 3d and perspective and all the vanishing pint stuff but now i think i can do it free hand so here was my first attempt at freehanding absrtact note:i posted this in the other 3d thread: [Broken External Image]:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v412/shiftrocks85/3d/img032.jpg i'm still not grar i just wanted some help
pSY, that tuorial was super easy, i copyed it by hand into my blackbook, a reference and i got practice, thanks!
I'm not really sure which kind of 3-D your talking about but with the normal 3-D peices(not like Daim) practice making a vanishing point or something to help make your dimentions straight, then when you think you got it down try sketching a bit and incorporating those techniques into your drawings. remember whenever your drawing 3-d of any kind make sure the lines are in proportion with the letters. And don't make em too lopsided looking it looks kinda bad.
i imagin shinning a light from one top corner and like look at the shadow and i dunno just think woat it would look like
YO, ALL I NO IZ DAT FREE-D IZ BETTA DEN 2-D. 1 TYME I WUZ UP IN DA 2-D LYKE "WOAH" N DEN A FOO WUZ LYKE "JABBA JABBA JOO HIT ME FOO" "KERL UP YASELF OR ELZE ULL NO DA MAN IN DA WORLD WITCHA SELF WORD"
dude my schools art teacher is SPY, it so tight he has everyone watch graff videos and he brings in his apprentice to teach people too. His name is Mr. Norberg and he is high like everyday, it's hilarious. Edit:yes actually the SPY, the one who wrote with DREAM
