    Designing spellcasters is a fun creative exercise, but where do you start? Monster Lab instructor, Scott Flanders, teaches you how to create a unique spellcaster by referencing pop culture figures, art, and myth to use as inspiration for your character design. You’ll then get to see an example of using those references as he conjures a Stygian Warlock with his digital shapecarving technique.

    • @ProkoTV
      @ProkoTV  7 місяців тому +1

      Scott does it a couple different ways, depending on the situation but he's usually working on the same layer. Sometimes, if he knows he's going to move or adjust a shape, he'll do it on a separate layer, though.

  • @silverblue73
    @silverblue73 6 місяців тому

    His hips appear to be totally even which makes him look stiff, I’d tilt a hip and make it seem like one leg is more forward or lower than the other. Also the tongue needs some shadow in spots to make it appear three dimensional and jutting out towards the viewer.

      he is taking away some information for the viewer doesn't focus on the less important features
      that why some artists dont draw every part of a shadow or detail on their concept.

    I learned nothing listening to this, you didn't explain how to make one's art better you just explained what you were doing with your piece. You explained nothing on why you chose the shapes you did, and what they convey. Im confuse why this is marked as a training video for artists.

    I mean great artist and all, but can we not use headdresses in art like this. It's a part of a culture not a garb for character creation. There are plenty of powerful things one can use to make their creature more powerful like spikes. I always get upset to see Plaines natives culture specifically abused because 'it looks cool'. It's one thing to draw a native with a headdress, but a whole norther thing to do so for a character. I feel the same way about people wearing these items as well for the headdress/warbonnet is sacred and every feather has to be earned. As a native I just can't there are other roots that one can take without stealing from a culture!
