Yeah you probably know I suck at making textures (If you've ever seen my old textures and stuff)

I probably need some tips to make my art, well, better.

So I was wondering if you (Probably) generous people would give me some tipz, that others can use if they view this thread as well.

Please put them in a list like this, (Unless you only have one tip)

1. *Tip here*

2. *Tip here*

3. *Tip here*

Etc.

Don't know if I'm offtoping here but you really have to be good at art yourself - you have to be a creationist.

Each and every art person has their own techniques and you can't get into art if you want to copy their style, you know what I mean? You have to have your own view on art, especially in Toribash, since people see the game differently - when it gets to art or overall look, some tend to think Tori's are robots, some think they are ninjas, and so on.

Want a tip? Be unique

So basically, I have to be creative, unique, and dream up something.


That, is the one of the greatest tips/advice ever.

(I'm not kidding, that's not sarcasm.)

I suck at making advanced textures XD

steps

1 - you plan what the texture looks like what force it goes with

2 - use GIMP dont rush XD

3 - use basic shapes n stuff if you are not a pro XD

Go google something like a robot.
and try to, make it a texture, and if it looks bad, go look up youtube tutorials, it helps you a lot.

This, don't concentrate on a certain style too much or you'll be stuck with it. I'm telling from personal experience.

1. practise
2. practise
3. practise

then you can try be creative and different.
otherwise its just a waste.

if you know the basic skills of using your program,

1. always check your mapping
2. don't rush, textures can take days to finish. especially sets.
3. be creative, explore more styles, 'trial and error's doesn't matter

ALWAYS ALWAYS have an full complete idea,every single detail of the head you want in your mind before drawing

Do layers and practice all the time. (Advise is 10 hours a day for 1 month)

Do everything everyday and make adjustments when you learn something new.
