HOW TO MONSTER: poll for AUGUST (HTM11)
Added 2020-07-24 20:38:27 +0000 UTCwhat should my next HOW TO MONSTER tutorial be about? you can vote for up to 3 options!
• monster tails can sometimes be a relatively overlooked feature, so i'd love to talk about how we can design tails in ways that range from wrapping things up in a cohesive way, to being a veritable statement piece.
• the same goes for monster ears. you rarely think of ears as *the* most important part of a design, but they can absolutely look super cool and say a lot about your character.
• monster eyes are sometimes two fairly regular eyes that sit where eyes usually sit. other times, they're numerous and eldritch and play a prominent part in the character's design. regardless of which, a tutorial about eyes would be full of ideas for us teratophile visionaries.
• a guide to concepting and generating ideas would focus on finding inspiration, coming up with neat concepts, and figuring out how to convey them visually. (it would basically be a more cohesive walk-through of the tips and tricks i share scattered throughout past HTMs and in my MOTM design commentaries.)
• an HTM about drawing and painting fur would focus on rendering different types of fur, but would also include design tips on choosing what your character's fur should look like.
all $10+ patrons can suggest topics for future HTM polls - check out THIS post! what aspects of concepting, designing, and drawing monsters would you like me to make an HTM guide about?
this poll will end on august 14th and HTM11 will be released no later than august 31st.
