BeginnerAbout the Course
A good weapon concept is not just a beautiful drawing. It's a design that tells a story: about a character, his character, the world, and his role in it. That's exactly what this course teaches.
In three weeks, you will complete the full pipeline of a concept artist: learn how to analyze a character's image and deduce weapon requirements from it, assemble and structure a reference base, work out silhouettes and sketches, make a finishing line, select a color, work out chiaroscuro and render — and finally assemble a professional concept sheet.
