>what do you think of this construction hack?

is this csp?

>>4169546

well I think it's reasonable for rigid objects, if I was to draw a gun, I would find a 3d model and trace it

>>4169546
it's not a hack. For some one who never uses 3d maybe.

>>4169546
since when did photoshop have 3d?

>>4169572
>>4169562
Photoshop CC I think

>>4169546
It is not a hack, it is called "using your tools"

>>4169556
its gonna hurt their fundamentals if they neglect their screwing

>>4169546
the "how to fuck up your perspective even with 3d ref" hack, very good

shows that fundies still are important, at least in this case

>>4169546
>tracing
Maybe it is good as an exercise, but it should never be done for something you're going to claim to be your own work.

>>4169546
>he STILL fucks up the perspective
based

>>4169546
It's OK as a guideline since you still have to draw all the bumps and/or asymmetry, the way OP drew it looks pretty awful ngl.
I'd either use a 3D model of an existing gun or draw the whole thing from scratch unless it's an important prop, in that case sketchup gives you a better reference.

>>4169685
But it is just an extruded version of something you drew. Thats like saying drawing on top of a sketch you made means you cant claim it as your own.

>>4169736
no, it's not.
putting something in perspective is something aside from the initial sketch, whereas drawing ON TOP of a sketch you made is by definition not aside from it.

>>4169744
No 3d render can be not copying then

>>4169736
when you draw over a sketch you made you're not changing the perspective.

You didn't really draw it unless you pulled it out of your ass. Drawing isn't about producing a good image, it's a kind of masochistic performance art. The means justify the ends.

>>4169546
This debate can only end in one way. OP post their work

>>4169772
Oh that is not happening

Wait... are you telling me ""people"" need a filter just for doing this?

>>4169546
Poor use of their tool and still struggles with perspective.

>>4170327
Of course. Haven't you seen it on Maslow's hierarchy of needs? It's right between esteem and self-actualization.

>>4169546
Seems like a lot of bullshit to get around not being able to do basic construction.
Doing things in a way that isn't particularly faster, in exchange for a result that's noticeably worse. The contemporary artist way.

>>4170344
this. Based.

>>4169546
>>4170327
based

>>4169546
redjuice and huke abuse this method a lot.

>>4169752
So what is the difference between doing this >>4170327 and using extrude?

>>4170768
extrude is way faster, same end result but the process is a lot easier, you always want to use the least amount of effort if you can get the same result

>>4170788
oh sorry I thought you were this person >>4169685

>>4170327
its way more work and you wont get the right perspective and/or other viewfinder perks, but alright newbie.

>>4169546
I think the method is based but the design is shit, looks like SVD's autistic daughter

It'd be easier to just use boxes, at least then you can fix the perspective issues.

>>4169685
Why not?
