After more than 2 decades following your career ,and another 10 years absorbing everything in your art lessons, the amount of value I received is incalculable. Starting my own indie art house and following my dreams has been a blessing I could not have imagined when buying your first workshop. I still regularly reference your workshops to new team members, or random people that ask me questions to get them up to speed. I think for the weeks you don't have a regular video to share, that having a preview montage of your box sets would excite and be beneficial to artist who have not seen or yet to purchase your gumroad content. Thank you Trent, for all you do. - Billy B.
Need any new staff? 🙏🎉❤
@@KarleeHankin not at the moment but I would love if you followed us on ArtStation or social media and periodically check in. OwlGhost Studios. ♥️🙏
I mostly come here for the motivational speeches! Solo indie dev is really, really lonely most of the time so sometimes just hearing a friendly voice telling me not to give up is really helpful. (Bonus points if there's a chill beat in the background.)
I love the twilight game videos which is like a sneak peak of what goes into developing a game and I wanted to note that in my opinion, most unique thing about your channel is that you talk about the game dev industry and what happens there, what is expected of artist from real world perspective and not just selling the dream...etc. also the unlicensed therapist videos lol.
I am honestly happy with everything you upload. Looking forward to seeing the devlogs!
I’ve been watching you for years. I’ve purchased your comics. You e taught me so much. I love your art, your style, and the way you do these videos as well. I’m very much looking forward to the release of your game. I’m hyped for you sir. Keep going.
YES, getting deeper into your gamedev would be super interesting!
I've commented before. I'm an indie novelist. I like the cool art, but I mostly come here to hear and get realigned with the pep talks, work ethic talks, real talk about what it means to be a working artist. You could call it the spiritual aspects of what you're doing here. :] I like that. It's why I'm here. I dig the positive work hard vibes.
Thanks for doing that. It's a big deal.
Tutorials are always nice but I personally find your rants and storytimes to be a unique goldmine
Hey Trent, I've been watching your videos for years now and I always appreciate your art and your chill perspectives. My request would be to make videos on the team management side of game production. Art is always a fun challenge, and I love to hear your tips on it, but I think people present far more complex challenges when it comes to taking and giving critique, setting appropriate work life boundaries and how to approach team dynamics when egos get involved. Thanks!
I'm so glad you're not going anywhere! I've gotten so much value from your videos and your gumroad courses. I honestly love just hearing your opinions, insight and knowledge on things while watching you paint and draw. It's always good to hear about your successes too! With everything you've given us I feel committed to your journey and I'm rooting for ya!
I've been loving watching the portraits come to life and the fireside with Trent chats you've been posting lately. It feels like a mate has popped round and just drops some conversational knowledge on me while I watch some artwork being created. Dev logs, more portraits, random insights into the art and concept art world. Whatever you want to drop on us is fine with me.
Hi, Trent. Game dev logs would be awesome-especially those involving art. :) And thank you for everything you have done over the years.
I took a break from the clips and recently saw this one, and I'll rewatch a lot of them. Good luck with the game.
I would love to hear more about the challenges you face during the development of your indie game and how you managed to solve those. That seems extremely valuable to me, as I just finished my video game studies and started my own company on serious games.
I love your videos and they are always so helpful and you are the reason I am trying out this career path. Thank you so much!
Always great to see another video from you! I definitely like the casual art and chat style.
I bought your hearthstone card tutorial and brush pack. I haven’t quite had the energy to tackle and understand the tutorial, I have found the brushes to be incredibly helpful in my artwork!
Also I Can’t wait to see the game when it comes out!
Trent your videos and courses really helped me, and still do, so thank you for taking your time to create content for youtube and gumroad. As for topics, I love the mindset talks, setting study schedules, meta mindset, how to approach learning art, habits, discipline etc.I know you've talked about a lot of these things before, I've watched those videos several times over, but expanding or finding new angles to approach those topics would be cool.
You've been a beacon for me as an artist for at least 15 years now.
You've inspired me to keep going and believing in myself, I also got some of your content to the extend I could afford.
Thank you so much for your time and for being an overall awesome dude.
You are a permanent landmark in my influence map. ❤
The game is looking absolutely sick Trent. Honestly I don't have much I am looking forward to in games at the moment. Other than indie games. I grew up on story driven RPGs and such and those these days are few and far between. Having a classic style metroidvania to look forward to, by and artist I enjoy, is pretty killer.
Not been watching as much as I had been sadly. Though your videos have helped me tremendously and I've been putting more time into projects, Using a good bit of your wisdom and knowledge I've found in some of your videos.
Seeing how you developed your game would be great content for sure! Mostly interested in your process and thoughts on story telling and world building in this game specifically.
I actually am taking some courses from your gum road, the beginner pack. Skipped out on the fundamentals so I'm teaching myself them. As someone creating a game right now, I would love to see your progress in how you've made this one so far, that's what we're about to do!
Videos and insight to the creation of games, assets, art, directing etc would be absolutely amazing! Thank you for doing all you do!
For me the most helpful things I've heard from you (and keep coming back for) it the practical approach. To think what you draw, for who do you draw, how much time you want it to take. And second - the game! So, if you keep that then I'm all in
Hearing insight to work life balance and changing times and all too is huge, anything you offer I feel is very valuable
I am old (67) and started to really learn to draw about 3 years ago for a hobby going into retirement. I took Trent's Easy Art lessons and learned a lot of the basics. I highly recommend them, his easy going style and depth of knowledge will give a good art foundation
video games are almost like movies, or even indie is to enjoy, or make sense of an artists visions, books, or scripts, or etc
Loving these vids you are making and posting, they are helping me immensely! I’ve started trying out Environment and background design….for some reason that really captures my imagination and creative vibe, so I’m off to check out your gum road offerings!
I watch your videos for a long time and I would love to see more videos of your painting process and how you approach art styles for games. Also it would be nice to see more devlogs of your game
It would be nice to see the development of other areas like Level Design and 3D Modelling! :)
Would love videos on: Your planning and workflow.
Tools and tricks you use in photoshop the most.
Tools and techniques for creating fast and a lot.
Tools and techniques for creating slow and detailed.
Your favorite secrets, tools, techniques.
What you should be doing when trying to get your foot in the door.
Thank you Trent!
I believe he's covered all 6 of those things already but I know he's covered #1-4 and #6. Definitely check out his other videos and his GumRoad channel.
I recently got into making comics after falling into making games after stumbling into being a full-time voice actor... creating art is a fun, winding journey... Trent, thanks for being there along the way for so many of us just starting out, finding our way. 🙏❤️
Hi Trent! I always find your content very helpful, especially your perspective as an artist in the game market.
I’ve been working joining game jams for fun, but also to hone some skills as a concept artist. Any suggestions when working on designs and in game art in such a condensed time frame? Jams normally go from 3-7 days and having a good idea of what’s most critical to the project could really make the experience an exceptional one.
Keep on doing all the wonderful work you do!
Hey trent!
I‘d appreciate more videos in which you explain how you use light and shadow on your paintings.
I know you already talked about that in your workshops, but i‘d enjoy to see you explain your thinking process with even more examples.
I really like and appreciate the “amateur psychology” videos. Like “When everything you’re making brakes”. They really helped me a lot.
I like the draw and talk videos you've been doing for the past few years.
I would love to see a video about what it's been like publishing something. Both with publishing indivially and as a company deciding on a publisher.
Yes, devlogs ! As a hobbyist game dev myself I am obsessed with them.
I'm sure you've done a video on this sometime somewhere, but the thing that's snagging me right now is my physical to digital conversion. I can do the circles and the snakey lines and all that, but no matter what everything I make digitally looks like something I would've made 15-20 years ago physically. I can be satisfied with my physical art and make notes of improvement on the next one, but every single time I pull out my drawing tablet, it's a failure and I have not improved. I've even tried using vector art programs and scanned my physical artwork to just trace and fill them in, but even that looked horrific. I feel like I'm missing some kind of simple detail, possibly something about how lines work on computers, that just isn't clicking like it did when I went to college for physical arts.
Another video I'd love to see is on sprites. How do you determine their proportions, what details do you carry over from the main artwork, how do you plan them out, are there multiple varients such as Overworld and Platforming sprites being different or are they the same, do some minor characters get made as sprites and then drawn in full later, what methods of animation are there for animating 2D sprites and what determines when you use spine or frame-by-frame for Twilight Monk? Stuff like that. I find it very fascinating because 2D art can go as detailed as it wants, down to having UV maps, or pull back to be more simplified. Love to hear more on it! More the creative and big decisions than a tutorial, if you will.
Always appreciate the videos and gumroad stuff. Thanks for sharing your industry knowledge, and lowering that barrier to entry!
I wish good luck for upcoming Twilight Monk. you are a self-taught artist so you must know a lot of books that help you get better in drawing. Could you share us some of the books helped you getting better in drawing (especially the ones about environment drawing)?
I teach you everything I know in my workshops. Www.gumroad.com/trentk
I would like to hear more about how to market yourself as a creator, whether that be freelance work etc. I personally struggle with finding the places to get well paying commissions at a key word "steady" rate. Looking for a stable art career, as a 'nobody' without an audience
I want😊 1 hour long you talk about mindset,ary, industry things related
I'm so excited for you Trent! Looking forward to seeing more gamedev vlogs 👍
aaaaaaaaa I can't wait to play it -- too much teasing 🤯
I'm always hype for all your content. I started to know you from the motivational speeches last year because I needed to motivate myself to keep practicing my art, and nowadays I've a handful of regulars that like to "hoard" my style or something lol You helped me a lot with that and I'm always on the lookout for more content on your channel, whatever it is, even if you do a cooking recipe episode! 😆
Always there Trent to cheer us up, or motivate us even more. Your videos are great, thank you very much
Game looks RAD Trent - can’t wait to play it!!
Thank you Trent... your videos give me the itch to keep on drawing! ñ_ñ
Me personally i like videos like this, you drawing and just chatting.
Ty man I will absorb anything possible 😅
Congratttssss!!!!!!
❤
Hi trent, hope you're having a great day.
I really liked it when you reviewed artbooks of various video games, i was wondering whether you would do that again.
Id love to! any suggestions? Which game art should I look at?
@@TrentKaniuga well, actually I really like monster hunter univers and I think there are a few artbooks for it's games so I think your professional reviews on it's designs( monsters, weapons, outfits, locations, etc) would be awesome.
Hey Trent, I know you already made a video about AI
But recently I seen an update that now AI can even do "speedpaint" they don't look as genuine as real speedpaint yet, but I'm sure within a few months or so they will getting better.
So I wonder what your view about this and near future possibilities of AI?
Even though we all agreed that AI will never replace human's craft, but common people outhere often can't recognize the difference visually. Previously it's proven by showing the speedpaint, but now that AI even able to do that. I just... don't know anymore
Trent, I think Flash games are making a comeback with something called "Ruffle" on Newgrounds. Could you please make a "look back in time" video on it?
I was never really involved with the flash games community at newgrounds. It’s fascinating, but I’ll have to research it.
@@TrentKaniuga Thank you!
Your game looks beautiful.
if only the Twilight Monk game was a topdown rpg with a height traversal system like Crosscode.
Great video, love it
I want devlogs!!!
I've been watching your video's for a while. However what tablet should I use to sketch and what software goes well with certain sketch pads to produce really good digital artwork................ especially for video games, it's all very new to me.
The game looks amazing, well done! One question though: are you concerned at all that the name of your protagonist is, from what I see in the video, typically associated with the Legacy of Kain series?
I never really thought about that. You could ask if the Legacy of Kain series was concerned with their "Raziel" character being associated with the bible, which is where the name originated from.
@@TrentKaniuga I don't disagree, nor am I implying that you stole the name since it is not copyrighted and yes, it's from the bible. I was genuinely curious if you thought about that and decided your character had to be named like this anyway, because the legacy of kain series is an already well established IP and raziel is a very memorable and special character, both in design and name..I could make a game and name my protagonist Snake for example, since that name comes from the natural kingdom, but I would worry about my character having less impact on the public(since kojima got there first 😛), while using a more original name could help him stand out. Anyway, I wish you the best for your game, it looks really awesome!
What are good entry level jobs to get into concept art? I’m currently a university student. I’d like to be a concept artist after I graduate, however I’m concerned that I won’t be skilled enough even after I finish university.
the game is looking great!
✨👍✨✍️💫
I would like to know how to do a comic project and how i can properly monetize it 😢😢😢
I'd like to know how you render your artwork if you haven't made a video on that already. ^^
It’s covered. Extensively in my hearthstone workshop. Www.gumroad.com/trentk
@@TrentKaniuga Thank you! I'll be sure to get it when I can ^^
why dont you make a portfolio review series?
It would be expensive, and not many people would watch, unless I really made it entertaining, which would just be at the expense of the artist, and not productive.
❤first 🤭
trent im so happy for you!!
Hi Trent! Found you on LinkedIn. Do you have any tips on how to present a published piece to help in getting jobs? I wrote and published and illustrated my own book. How can someone use that to gain employment? If at all.
