Does anyone use the 3d models?

[Beatrush]

TBH not really. Now the first screenshot there is no way all those lines will make it on the page.

If you look at this page

Gun+Blazer :: Ch01 - Page 05 | Tapas

This background on this page was also made using 3D. Just pick and choose the important lines to highlight and ignore the rest

Blender is a great! it's100% free! I may be able to help you create some locations in blender. Although I'm not a expert with blender so I'm not sure if I really could...I still consider myself a beginner.

Hey! I'm totally open to the support! I downloaded it and was LOST!!

[mariusthered]

i use poser 10 but this thread got me interested in blender, i was poking around and found lots of useful tutorials for it on your tube if you take a look.

My god, my comic would be much uglier if I didn't used 3d models. Basically nearly every frame have some 3d element in it, used either to sketch or line over (characters and props), or to insert unchanged (background).

[marvelescent]

Yeah, I think the big problem was the current version kept shutting off on me, cause of some who knows techy drivers reason. So I downloaded the latest beta, which works well, for now, but the new layout doesn't work with the tutorial . Some stuff I could find and figure out, but the rest I'm STILL lost. All the work I'm putting in to learn it, I might at well just draw what I was trying to create ‍♀️

[mariusthered]

i got it today, when i have learnt how to get around with it i will see what i can do, no promises.

[mariusthered]

dont mean to bug ya, thought i would share this it's using the latest version and pretty good.

I use Design Doll by Terawell when I'm really struggling with poses. I find it's a bit awkward to use at times, and you can definitely tell when I've had to rely on it, but I'd rather that, than sacrifice a scene I've had in mind just because I couldn't work out a pose.

Downloaded Blender this morning. I hope this is a fairly easy program to create some 3-D model stuff in...I dont wanna spend almost a month creating things for certain shots in my comics.

[mariusthered]

this was made in blender, think my pc might have a melt down if i tried this level

[marvelescent]

Haha fr, that's some next level occupational stuff. The time and effort man

[marvelescent]

Probably not, but I did see there models on places like free3d.com and some models are blender files. idk what to do though then after, but maybe you can position a model there, if you figure out how, and then save it as an .obj or a .fxm( I think this was the file type, you should google it). Those 2 can be imported into clip studio. Haven't tried it completely myself, besides the save as

I use it sometimes to see how to draw some specific situation.
For Example: In my last episode I draw a cafè scene with three people. So I model before three people around a table to see how I should draw the interaction between them from various ankles. I only do it in (for me) pretty hard to draw scenes.
I also like reference photos. But I usually don't have the time or don’t find people that like to pose for me.

There is actually a netflix original movie made entirely in Blender, that's actually awesome to see a free based program to get a bit of recognition in the industry

It's actually a pretty decent story, my nephew and nieces love it !

[marvelescent]

oh hey, I seen that advertised, I'll have to check it out!

[mariusthered]

check out my very first blender model.

i now have a 3d bucket in clip studio. Don't know why the eyes messed up so if anyone can tell me how to sort that id be grateful

[writercynknapp]

This kind of thing is also an option.

Blender gives me some really amazing results. I was never artistically inclined outside of film stuff, but I've been having a blast testing out what can be made in a free program. Honestly, I think it can be a huge help for environmental work, especially when you are working with tricky perspectives. Its tricky to get the shading right to make it appear "hand drawn" but that shouldn't be the goal, its far easier to use it for creating references for backgrounds or character poses that might be more difficult otherwise.

I have a lot of fun in it! (Bottom two were made following tutorials, but are good examples of environments and using a frame from a physics simulation for scenes with complicated motion!)

found this from a fellow tapas creator , it's three years old but might be helpful

and the comic mentioned is here

A Fool's Deception :: Antimage (4) | Tapas

additional. looking into this a bit more i discovered blend swap is now a dead site. however this vid could still be use to teach you how to make line art from your own 3d scenes.
