Sorry guys, I don't know what the hell did I eat, but I'm not really in condition to do much of anything. Keep your fingers crossed that I'll post at the evening

Having both ill stomach and a fever while 30 degrees hot air goes around your flat isn't one of the greatest feelings

@pandowaty, you can pose even the greatest poster, but it will end up as shit if the colors won't work together. It isn't a problem here though, not by a longshot. These colors go so sweet from red to blue from the corners and saturation is hella juicy too. You even made his tie fit what's in the background. These Battlefield sparks are a neat touch that keeps the picture from being a bit bland with content, gj.

more models for everyone
They all have every attachment in the game

this isn't my entry for the week just wanted all of you to see it so you know its here
comissioned by me, Arachnit did em, i just worked with him on textures and made some reskins
@Piggo, spicy models, but link no work

@Pict, drawing by itself is good, but all that blur around the edges makes it really shine. Feels kind of dreamy and I really like that. All I can really say, is that the sand that's below the guy could actually be expanded to the right, as it feels a bit empty imo and left without much detail. Still a goodie tho,

@RGB, just publish a comic book already, jeez. A minus for for stretching your logo so that each letter is in a corresponding color on that TV there. Seriously though, the guy could have a bit less passive pose, but it's not bad as it is. Really hot otherwise, love it

@Dudu Fadende, looking quite well, just like some screenshots from a game. By that I mean that they are really well action packed, and together paint a neat little briefing of what's going on there. More directional lighting and some closer camera angles would've done magic here though, these scenes feel a little bit unfinished. This one is definitely the closest to what I'm talking about, nice ratio of shadows and lit areas, as well as a well done framing. The one on top is my favorite, well done with these particle effects.
As for the second post, that red is a little bit too aggressive. I'd perhaps replace it with something grey-green-brown'ish, anything lighter.than the background, but in similar colors. Goodie otherwise, especially on the posing part, that grey dude is looking cool af
Good work man

@Neythi, as @Danny said, a little bit plain, but has a neat STALKER vibe. First off I'd change the framing on this one, as what you have here doesn't really show us much of anything. I take a wild guess that you want to show how alone this guy is. In that case, the scenery you have here is very much enclosed and doesn't really give the viewer any feeling of emptiness. It feels more like he'd be in a big room. Empty - yeah, but it's still a room which isn't as spacious as, let's say, empty fields. I bet that if you'd turn the camera around, you'd be able to see a lot more space that could be filled with emptiness, and occasionally some mutants so it doesn't look too bland. Camera placed somewhere in the likelihood of two meters from the guy, get him to stare into the distance, maybe put a cigarette inbetween his lips, and you've got a good old sadboy vibes of a man that's alone in a wasteland. Try something like that fam, hf


Beep, boop, gold: @Antloin and @Elan, both for obvious reasons. You guys simply rock, love your work

Bleep, blap, honorary with love from my heart: @The Sad Boy, amazing balance of blue and orange and real fine camera placement as well as that blur. Keep 'em coming

Only four more super specific request images to go before I can do my own work, including lovely poses and exciting angles! I'm hoping to do some concept art pieces when I get about to it.

As it is right now I'm shackled to what people ask for and surprisingly a lot of people want 'em pretty straight-on

Guys I'm going to be leaving for a job down south this Saturday so I've literally got one last day to make something great.
Please give me an idea, I want to leave off on something truly spectacular.

See that's the thing, I love to just make really generic military crap. It's only every once in a blue moon that something awesome strikes me. I only made that pic of the transhuman space marines because of a suggestion so, I really want to make something outside of my comfort zone. That's why I really would like a good suggestion, because like I said I literally have one day left before I'm gone (possibly) for good out of the Gmod creative sphere, so I can't rely on inspiration to just strike me overnight.

Haven't posted anything in a while so decided to give my light photoshop skills a go.

Some say you're lucky if you hear them coming before you see them.
But what if neither are sensed?

Hey, it's been a slow week so imma let the "winning vote" be "awarded" at the end of this week instead, to allow for more entries.
For the sake of criticism though:



Nice simple and composed set of screenshots, use of default animations kinda make it look like a gameplay thing which I kinda like though I think some of the scene remains a bit empty. You got a bit of bloom coming through the trees on the left side which can usually be disabled in console or camera settings on SFM. Nice entry point to the posing way of things though, hope you make another thing soon :^).

I like this kind of comic strip vibe going on, with different times for this character going from civ to rebel or something like that. Kinda has a rugged photo look though? Kinda like it kinda don't, looks like it needs some perfection but that's just my opinion. Nice work my guy. If you want real feedback: guys hand in the first pic is totally wack, work on hands x.

This is nice but it DARK my dude, when you're working with something you want to be majorly dark I would personally always highlight the only thing in the bright just so it can be understood. So say the guy sat with the cigs on the left, shoulda upped that lights brightness a bit and maybe have it cast a shadow around the corner to the soldiers in the back. Pitch black is ok, but to really make a readable pic maybe just have a small bit of ambient lighting so atleast some of it is seen. Keep it up :^).

Cute round baby kitto in the dirt. Didn't even see the second one in the back. Love it, this is the half winner of this week purely for cats.

Will see you next monday, with hopefully more submissions or if not - enjoy your summer holidays.​
