FotoSketcher is pretty cool
-
michalis i think you are looking too far into it. its just an experiment, theres no substitue for the real thing. personally i hate faux-watercolour renderings, its just my opinion. but a client asked for this and the client pays so it has to be done!! especially when its a WIP, cant keep sending them hand-painted images! commercially its not always possible! i would love to paint more but its just not feasible. spare time yeah....
-
LOL, I know.
My point is:
You all have some paper and 2-3 watercolour or ink or just some strong coffee LOL(it works), and a brush
Just do some mess, scan and vivid light overlay in Ps. You may find this more interesting.
Now if you prefer corelpainter, tablets etc, it also works. But coffee is cheaper.
I used the above watercolor for overlay. Just for fun. I could do it better. It takes 2 min.

Then why bother with 3D altogether? Or cutlery, for that matter?

And also, michalis, according to your thinking it would be better to hand write your opinion, using a nice piece of paper with an ink pen (real ink) and send it by post to oli, right?
LOL i'm kidding
Seriously, I think your ideas are correct and also agree on almost all points.
But perhaps what matters, as Oli says, effective communication is to try, attempting to combine the convenience and quality, especially when it comes to work.
Can not be forget that much has changed for some years now (I am part of the generation that started working with pencil and paper, this to be clear), and maybe sometimes we tend to think that working with Digital has happened that the container has become more important than content and that the technique is more of the message. But actually it's not, and will tell you more: this problem has always been, even long before computers, and not only in graphics.
Hands are important, true, but what really counts is the thought, this is my opinion.
However, this is my experiment with Fotosketcher:
-
All these are fine, I'm just saying that adding some hand writing is always a good idea, even clients will appreciate it. Psychology?
Being in DTP for many years, I remember when I added hand writing in a commercial and everybody was asking if I could share the font family. lol I'm talking about a full page document there, all handwriting. Everything is possible. Make it real! Overlay a coffee splash-wash and have fun. -
I'm just very happy with all I've learned in the last two weeks following the couple of threads about using FotoSketcher...here's my attempt to put it all together:
-
Here is mine Foto sketcher combo with PS.
Used two FS output then recomposed them in PS.Water color effect
-
I used FS which I also find very cool to turn one of my marker renders into a more watercolour-y approach. I thought I'd increase image simplification, to give it a "hazier" feel...

Nice work Anastassis.

a student's work from a couple years ago run through FotoSketcher then PS.

these are really great I didn't know you could do this so easily

from an old model...

another, from an older project

An external view of a project I have uploaded previously.
The foreground elements are all originally .png photo elements brought thru fotosketcher and edited in photoshop.
-
How would you like these ones as NPR? Was experimenting the other day... SUp, obviously Fotosketcher, and Photoshop.
I like better the one with the vertical running zebrano veneer, which is wrong in reality, but can't remember how I got to that result !
-
A monument our office is currently restoring. This is from an old photograph.
Good find, Oli. Parallels has me switching to windows whenever, too, btw.
-
Here are a few.
su modeling - podium rendering - photoshop landscaping - and last, but not least, Fotosketcher!
-
Paul - your SU>Podium>PS>FS work is looking great. You should try adding a final step overlaying in PS some fine SU linework to see if it brings the renderings to the next level: Zen perfection.
