    For random junk piles, rock piles etc, create a group of say 5 objects for each small, medium and large junk and then before you start drawing just rotate the page to a random angle and switch up the sizes, this has worked great for me

    9:40 You were talking about how to make junk piles a little more random or natural. What if you lay or dumped junk out on the paper and traced the shape it formed. I've seen people trace rice piles to make their D&D maps feel more organic. Maybe you could do it with beads, scrap, off-cuts, failed builds and other junk and leftovers from previous projects.

    Ooh the final line work was really nice to watch. For your junk piles what if you made a texture roller? Roll out some cos clay, jam some greeblies in it and when you take it out you have a press mold texture. You could then just ink/stamp as is or maybe bake it to a paint roller? This is just something I've seen sculptors do recently so i haven't the foggiest if it'd work for painting. Cant wait to see more of your work!

    @artistpoet5253 3 месяца назад

    for piles of cutter just start off with the main masses like you would a figure or vehicle or building. then rough in a few key, semi-recogniseble objects like radiators, cans, pipes, fans, doors or whatever would be thrown in to the pile. Spread these around and use them to anchor those main masses. Final bit is to just scribble in smaller shapes that tie all the other larger shapes together. 'Negative' space in the form of shadow is excellent and most of all, try to avoid patterns and use heavy lines to guide the eye to the subjects of the drawing.

    I really enjoyed this one and I really like your art style. You say you are just a concept artist but you are selling yourself short. You definitely are an artist and I would like more painting videos.
    Another neat trick for watercolor is sprinkling salt on it when it is wet. I would do piles of stuff by blocking in colors with irregular/ natural sponges and then use waterproof ink to draw things out of the blobs. With some nice granulating water colors it will look interesting and things will just jump out at you. Kind of like looking at clouds and saying that one looks like a dog eating spaghetti and that one looks like a rabbit..
    Really looking forward to Skirm. I am the same as you and love lore books and cool illustrations. It would be really neat if it had some single player options like 5 Parsecs From home.
