Description
- Well you guys asked for it, here he is. With a whopping 31 or so votes, the Death Lord. I'll be doing some more from the first page of thumbnails soon, and also have many more pages of them to upload!
Doing all these these thumbnails has been such a rush, and also a hugely eye opening experience for my process. I'd highly recommend it to anyone struggling to come up with ideas.
In the past I've left sketching to my sketchbook and done the finished pieces in Photoshop, but doing these quick little guys digitally has been a great reminder how fast and essential thumbnails are to churning out ideas.
And that's what's at the heart of concept art: ideas.
It is easy to get into the habit of just taking random sketches done in spare time all the way to final cause you already have them, but being able to create loads of ideas is at the heart of coming up with good ones - the more you make the more diversity and range you can get.
The idea behind a concept is the most important thing - if the concept stinks at a thumbnail stage - it's bound to stink at a final stage, no matter how many hours you spend rendering it.
All of this is pretty basic stuff but by getting the basics reiterated to me through those Gumroad tutorials I've been watching I've really had a look at my current work and process. I'll definitely be doing a lot more thumbnaiing in future - I've already done about 6 more pages of them, so much more on the way!
Will post the next page of thumbnails later today, really pumped to show you the rest of them.
As always, have a good one and cheers for the support!
