3D update #3: Content farming
🕑 Added 2022-06-10 16:46:16 +0000 UTCFirst of all, I've begun uploading my finished illustrations to Newgrounds. Being a boomer at heart, I did not realise that twitter will not display my works to people not logged in. All of you should be able to see the new content that way.
And boy, have I made some content since the last post! Since the models are way not ready for animation [or at least good looking animation] I tried something different. I posed and lit them in blender before painting over the resulting render. This workflow makes it possible for me to make rather detailed images in fraction of the time that it would take to sketch and paint them properly.
Here's the raw renders that I later painted over
Here's the finished images. You can also check them out on newgrounds
I am really sorry to say that I only recorded one timelapse of the paintover process. I stupidly thought that nobody would be interested. Why did I think that? I don't know. I'll be recording them all from now on.
Anyway, what do you think of the finished images? I am worried that they look too artificial, but I think I managed to replicate my painting style pretty well. I really want to try to do a comic in this style in the future [after I finish Room and Board]. I could make pages so much faster than I do now. Aaaah!
When I started working on the 3D models I was serious about learning animation... But now? I think it may be the next step in improving my comic output. Alfie will always remain drawn the traditional way, but I can see so much potential for hybrid 2d/3d comics. What worries me is that I can't think of another artist doing comics that way... At least not with any level of quality. All the 3d paintovers I've seen were... Subpar to say the least.
Next week I'll put more effort into finishing the lady model and rig. Once I have all the fundamentals more or less done, I will try to see how many distinct characters I can get out of this one frame. I am fairly certain I can easily change the face/breast/general body shape as well as hairstyle and skin texture. We'll see how far I can push it.

Never fear being the trailblazer. We got yer back!

hiroya oku does this as well. I'm glad you're enjoying discovering new artistic processes. your very good and i want to see you get even better

Looks great! do you have some advice for creators that want to start in adult entertainment, I feel like just posting on a random social platform is very risky nowadays. In general, how to promote the product and reach an audience is my concern. I have some comics in progress. thanks!

I feel like they're almost missing some flaws. They look fantastic but just a touch too perfect. Those little things that come up because the process add a nice texture to the images

Look great. I can really feel your style coming through still. Both processes work for me, so keep doing what you are passionate about.

Gantz is done in that style. 3d figures, rotoscoped into 2d
Chthonic Delirium
I find the 3D work absolutely wonderful, and love the out of the box approach to rendering. I'm looking forward to see animations one day :D
Israfel
These look fantastic!
RunningGentles
I'm loving this technique! I would love to see a comic using these images. Your story and dialogue always really pushes the whole thing up to a whole other level for me.
Eduardo
I think you're like 2 drawings far to reach the point of max quality. For the 3d paint over the only show that does it correctly is Arcane

Honestly InCase becoming a super prolific and productive CG artist, is pretty much as close to a literal dream come true as I could imagine. Like it's the kind of thing I would have always said I'd love to see but would never expect to see it but here it is!

There's a helpful thing in clip studio paint where you can pose reeeeeeal basic 3d models - at least at the stock level - on a layer and then draw over them. I know that a few artists incorporate it into their workflow. Have used it myself when drawing more NSFW poses that require some body contortion

these look fantastic! you've taken to 3d so quickly, it's very impressive. if you're still rigging these characters up I highly recommend checking out pierrick picaut's rigging course, it's a real game changer. his method for tongues and tails is very nice.
Ama
interesting to see this development! I'm a fan of yuumei's 3D paintovers
Ubermonkey
Sabu (i'm sure you've seen thier work, noteably Sex Arcade and others) does 3d paintovers (at least sometimes) and he does a great job of elevating them and making them look like original works indistinguishable from traditional art.
Mike
Pretty sure some DC/Marvel comic artists do the hybrid 2d/3d thing, though they do often look artificial. Yours seems to avoid that pitfall quite well though.

the 3d art is so good, just make sure you're free to deviate from the base image and give them some variety in the shape if you want :)
Ginger Laird
This 3D art is hauntingly close to 2D art. It's like a painting you could fall in to. Beautiful work!
Don
You done good, can see your style and it's fun too.
Hans
I can tell it's an evolution of your art style, i.e. it's subtly different, but recognizably you. I think it works!
Angela Jordan Black
I think they are beautiful and erotic! The poses and facial nuances are very expressive without being cluttered - they communicate a great deal. I love it!
Trigon Manthree
They all look good to me. Great jorb!
Nicole LeGare
Oh damn these look really good 0: And it's a really clever use of 3D renders to enhance your 2D workflow, very cool all around! I look forward to seeing what other stuff you can make with this process :3

I can do it without logging in. If I open this link: https://incaseart.newgrounds.com/art/ in an incognito window I can not see the image previews, but I can open each one to see it.

Sorry to be a bearer of bad news but you need to login on newgrounds as well to see nsfw artworks. But great stuff so far
Jack Newark
The 3d models are looking good! I think your style is transferring well to the new medium when you paint over it at the end. Makes it very recognizable imo. Im happy that you seem very enthusiastic about learning something new, and I can't wait to see what else you can do as you improve!
