COMGRAP blog

COMGRAP, or Computer Graphics class, is all about how to use Photoshop and other tools to create art assets. Being a total noob with Photoshop, it was pretty interesting and fun to learn about all the different things you could do in Photoshop.

We started with photo manipulation, then went on to blending, photo restoration, and a lot of different things.
We also touched on using Adobe Illustrator to create lineart.

So here are some of the work I was able to save / post online.



This is my attempt at creating basic pixel art. Hahaha VERY basic pixel art.
The colors are horrible! Oh my! LOL


So, tracing is considered art right?
I did this with a mouse btw. Everyone was using a tablet, but I'm a badass.

So this was the original concept for my Final Plate, but then my friends told me it had to be Front and Back
I totally did this on the hour of submission. I swear. It looks pretty damn realistic. =))

Overall, I really liked COMGRAP class. It was really fun, and I learned a whole bunch. I now have a deeper appreciation for digital artists now because it's not that damn easy. Hahahaha. PEACE OUT.

BASPRO3 Project

So the idea for the project was a Worms 3D style turn-based artillery game, where the projectiles were affected by wind and other factors.

But after working on it, we decided to simplify the concept and turn it into a bullet-hell style dodging game.
The main character has limited movement between 3 lanes, and has to dodge bullets coming from the opposing side.

This is the first prototype we made, using a simple model loader script we learned in class.

Update soon.
