Drawing Thread

Hey guys, so if i were to detail this, what would you recommend to do? Any tips and tricks to shading, style, grass, rocks, trees, bushes, clouds etc. would be very appreciated.
p.s the sun is on the far right hand side of the map

 

Copy spruce bcuz he is gewd

 

you are why this community is cancer

 

thank you

 

might as well, seems as if everyone is doing in now.

 

Y'all just gunna look at the thread someone gimme some help

 

delete it entirely

 

guess i'm copying spruce then

 

guess you're not smart then

 

it was a joke but you can't convey sarcasm over the internet so i'll apologise

 

It's kinda painful answering these questions because I don't know what kinda look/feel you have in mind

Just draw texture on it that seems reasonable. You can get away with doing a lot of weird things or things that don't make sense, example: http://blackhatrider.com/tracks/~565udx Lot of the line placements here are really wack and the shaping doesn't make quite a lot of sense. Yet despite this you can still tell it is a rock shape/texture. Goes to show you don't really need to think too hard on the crack and rock placements. Since it's nature it can be random and that makes it easy.

Good advice mapes

 

I don't have a black hat rider account, so i can't view the track; but thank you for the input <3

 

So I've been trying to develop my own unique drawing style, because all the pros have their own way they draw trees, grass, rocks and other aspects of a nature track (I'm only going for a nature style, not anything like what shep used on r3 or any trial stuff). I think I have finally managed to find a specific way that I can draw trees (and grass and rocks), the bark, branch placement and other aspects of a pinetree, without accidentally copying someone. Of course I still draw the same type of tree as the other amazing track makers that I hope to be one of some day, just in a different way. If anyone could give me some feedback on if it looks too copied, or too much shade, or anything- - I'd be very grateful.



Thanks for the help-and sorry this is a huge post lol.

 

looks great, keep going i reckon. also did you draw all that on ipad?

 

Yep. I find it easier to draw on an iPad (no joke) but I can't save big tracks, so I'll just make really detailed tracks with a five second run time lol.

 

Its a lot harder to be precise on ipad

 

Well then I can be the only half decent iPad track maker

 

Unless I'm forgetting someone who's on iPad and is better

 

You're forgetting me!
