Kenmojr Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 "54 Looks Good in Patina" I created this image a few weeks ago for the weekly Friday art show on HAMB forum. I created this image digitally using my home built computer, Photoshop, Topaz Studio 2 & Rebelle 4. A photography of my 1/24 scale diecast was used as reference source. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenmojr Posted August 8, 2022 Author Share Posted August 8, 2022 "Racing in the Salt Flats" I painted this image completely digitally using a Wacom tablet and Art Rage. Art Rage and Rebelle are digital painting apps which attempt to recreate the traditional painting method. Everything was created the same way one would using pen and paper, except my pen (Wacon tablet), media (Art Rage) and canvas (my home built computer) were digital. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Very interesting. I never would have thought those were digital. I like the Chevy especially. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunajammer Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 These are fun. Nice work on all of them. That '54 is compelling, in that the vehicle looks so much like it could pass for a pastel. I like the variety of tone and themes on all of them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any good affordable drawing programs that let you draw from scratch? Something akin to Paint, but better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenmojr Posted August 21, 2022 Author Share Posted August 21, 2022 For free hand drawing, sketching & painting I use ArtRage which is on sale presently for $47 https://www.artrage.com/artrage/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwjIKYBhC6ARIsAGEds-LHVn6phlnUFNGq2RVgoaKcqDo3L0DzyuFYQvWY3zemON7JujsUEWwaApJUEALw_wcB I also use Rebelle 4 although version 5 is not. I used Rebelle on the 1954 Chevy. https://www.escapemotions.com/products/rebelle/about A few pro artist, especially comic book and manga artist are using Krita which is FREE. I've tried Krita and it's a nice program but I go back to Artrage & Rebelle because I know them better and not because they are better. https://krita.org/en/ It is recommended you have a Wacom tablet and stylus attached to your Windows or Mac computer. At first I did not like the Wacom attached to my Windows computer but after two weeks I would not go back to drawing with a mouse. The stylus nicely replicates the pencil, pen, brush feel depending on which tool you are using in Krita, ArtRage or Rebelle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenmojr Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Flying Saucers Attack Teenage Hot Rodder I created this 100% digitally. I sketched everything (except UFO) using ArtRage, a fantastic painting program much like Corel Painter but costs a quarter of the price. I modeled the UFO in a 3D modelling app named Groboto 3D which is now defunct as Groboto has become Mesh Fusion and part of the 3D modeling app Modo. A screen capture of the UFO was brought into ArRage where I painted over it. Further tweaks were done in Photoshop (contrast, color correction, cropping, adding signature, etc). I created this for Jalopy Journal's weekly Friday Art Show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenmojr Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 A few screen captures of the Flying Saucer 3D model I created in Groboto 3D ver 3. And also when I imported it into Blender 3.1 to show the topology... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spex84 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Cool art Ken!! I'm actually kind of impressed by the topology on that UFO...Groboto seems to handle Booleans well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenmojr Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) I have a revised version of my flying saucer 3D model for FREE download at ShareCG. It is also textured. I did some refinement of the model using 3D Coat and Blender. https://sharecg.com/v/99365/gallery/5/3D-Model/Flying-Saucer Edited September 28, 2022 by Kenmojr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPL-ACE Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Very nice art. I especially like "Competition coup" and "Junkyard Rods". I am an old computer guy but I never tried to do computer art (Yet?). I am trying to learn Blender. Difficult but incredibly powerful. I am releasing a few 50 year old drawings I did while in school. Look for "VERY OLD ART" in Auto Art forum, if you are interested in pencils Look them up in Wiki 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenmojr Posted June 18, 2023 Author Share Posted June 18, 2023 1961 Chevrolet Impala parked on Route 66. Digital illustration I created using Vue by e-onsoftware (3D rendering landscape app), a 3D model I purchased from Cornucopia3D (now out of business). Photoshop used for color correction and adding detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
