We Don't Gatekeep Art Resources | A Comprehensive List

Here's a list of some of the tools/sites I currently use or have used previously for works/studies. I'll separate it into Software/Utility, Reference, and 'Other' which will be just general things that could help you map out things for your experience with art. **[Free highlighted in pink, paid highlighted in green. Blue is variable/both. Prices Listed in USD]**

Software/Utility:

2D

Krita Painting app (PC) (my main digital art software on PC for 5+ yrs)

Clip Studio Paint [PC] [CSP 2.0+ allows for 3d modelling within the painting app and a lot of other cool features] [apparently allows up to 6 months free trial]

Procreate (12.99) [iPad/iPad Pro] (the GOAT)

Artstudio Pro [iPad/iPad Pro] (An alternative to Procreate if you enjoy the more traditional art app layout) -- I find this app handy when Procreate is lacking a feature I need, or vice versa. (you can easily transfer files between the two, but keep in mind Procreate's layer limit)

2D "Collaborative Painting/Drawing apps"

Magma Studio

Drawpile

Discord Whiteboard

Gartic Phone (Pretty decent for 2d animation practice, but has a hard limit on frames)

3D

Blender [3D Modelling, Sculpting + Layout] (PC)

Sculptris [PC] (it's an old unsupported version of Zbrush, but can help to get ideas out, and functions better than browser sculpting apps

Nomad Sculpt [iPad/iPad Pro] ($20) Works pretty well if you prefer a mobile setup, but it is a bit intense on the battery life and takes some getting used to

References + Study

Magic Poser [ PC and Mobile ] Has both free and paid versions, I've made do with just the lite version before

Artpose ($9.99) [Iphone + Steam]

Head Model Studio [IPhone] A 3D head, with both a basic blockout version for angles, and a paid version with more detail

Cubebrush [simply search "[keyword] pose reference pack"], they usually have good results + they frequently have sales!

Line of Action [Good for Gesture practice + daily sketching], also has other resources built in.

Quickposes Similar to Line of action, more geared toward anatomy

Drawabox | Perspective Fundamentals Improvement modules (Suggested by @taffingspy )

Sketchfab, this skull in particular is useful, but there is other models that can help you study anatomy as well.

Pinterest can be good, you just have to be careful, usually you're better off just finding reference pack if you have the money, sometimes certain creators have freebies as well

Artstation Marketplace can be decent [make sure to turn on the Aye-Eye filter so it doesn't feed you trash], a colleague of mine recommended this head model for practicing facial blocking, there is also this free version without lighting.

Local Art Museums [Unironically good for studying old "master work" if you're into that, or even just getting some inspiration]

Brushes + Other Useful software:

I personally have used both of these brush packs before making my own

(I actually don't know how to share my daily brush set because I frequently switch between Krita, Procreate, and ASP, but once I figure that out I'll be sure to do that lol)

Marc Brunet's Starter brush pack [Technically free but supporting him for this if you like it is ideal, there's some good brushes]

Dave Greco Brush Pack [$3]

Gumroad in general is a good place to find brushes and art resources. *Note; for Krita specifically, brush packs are a bit weird, so it may require you to find different packs, or import them in a particular way

PureRef [PC] - Reference Compiler/Moodboarding

VizRef ($3.99) [iPad] - Moodboarding/Reference Compiler

Artist Youtubers/Creators that helped me improve/guide me along as a self-taught artist from when I first started digital art to where I am today:

Proko

Marco Bucci

Sinix Design

Sycra

Hardy Fowler

Lighting Mentor

Winged Canvas

Moderndayjames

Swatches

Chommang_drawing

Marc Brunet (YTartschool)

+ Observing a lot of speedpaint art by people whose work I enjoy on social media/youtube, trying to dissect their processes

If you've gotten this far, first of all, congrats, you can read a lot, and second of all, thank you for reading and I hope this helps! I'll continue to come back and update this if I find any new resources in the future, or if my processes change :)

Much Love,

[for-those-who-wait]

Oh hey you use medibang? That's awesome! I miss using it, had to buy clip studio since it refused to work on my pc after my laptop died

Amazing art, I adore how skrunkly you draw everyone!

I used to use Photoshop before I realized/got fed up with just how insanely abusive their subscription service is. I used MediBang before it and I now use MediBang after it! (The blending brushes on Photoshop were so nice but I never should have left.) It sucks your computer didn't want to run it anymore :( But any one-time purchase of software sounds like a good deal to me! FireAlpaca is a good substitute for MediBang but with rudimentary 2D animation capabilities on top of it. I actually downloaded it recently for the animation part but IDK if I'll ever get back to it haha

Funnily enough, MediBang is currently selling a different version on Steam for like 70 bucks and the onion skin/animation stuff looks like the main attraction for purchasing it (also gradient map but ignore that), which is just wild to me when FireAlpaca exists and does the same thing for free

Anywho this doodle was made in my notes app hahaha. He is eepy! Skrunkly and eepy! I hope Clip Studio works well for you :)

PSA:

**not witch related, apologies lovely followers**

I was just on twitter, and noticed a post, where someone was calling this individual out for stealing their art.

Typical. I scrolled.

Then I came across ANOTHER post by a different person, about this same individual stealing THEIR art.

So out of curiosity, I check the account of the accused.

There is art made by people I follow, my friends, and even myself. This girl is stealing art, brazenly posting as theirs, trying to sell it, and responding to any criticism with “shut up, it’s on the internet, it’s free”

DO. NOT. BE. LIKE. HER.

Point blank fucking period.

Art is expensive, i know. Commissions are expensive, I’m aware. But let me just break some things down for you.

Art is expensive because you are paying a person for their time/effort/talent/materials and usually last minute edits.

Paint isn’t cheap. Glass isn’t cheap. Yarn isn’t cheap. Hell, even for digital you need to replace Apple Pencil tips, screen protectors, software for PCs/Drawing tablets, etc etc. And that doesn’t even begin to touch the TIME.

Yes, I will absolutely charge $100+ for a drawing, because art takes TIME. $100 for a piece that took me 2-3 days alone is less than minimum wage. Let alone computer animation, 3D models, 2D animation, etc etc. I, like many other artists, know my fucking worth as a human being.

I understand with the current economical climate that finances are hard, buying art is a luxury, etc etc. But DO. NOT. steal the hard work/time/talent/materials from another and pass it off as yours. Especially to gain profit. That is disgusting fucking behavior, and I can/will fight a bitch.

Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk.

In the early 1980s, personal computers were transitioning from text-based interfaces to more visually engaging environments. Sierra On-Line’s King’s Quest: Quest for the Crown, developed in 1984 for the IBM PCjr, was a landmark achievement in this evolution. It was not just another adventure game; it redefined the genre by leveraging the limited hardware capabilities of the time to create an immersive, interactive experience that felt years ahead of its contemporaries. Technical Innovations in King's Quest

1. The Birth of a 3D Adventure Game

At a time when most games were either text-based or limited to simple 2D visuals, King’s Quest introduced a pseudo-3D graphical environment. Players could guide the protagonist, Sir Graham, through a dynamic, scrolling landscape, where he could walk behind or in front of objects—an innovation known as "2.5D."

Pseudo-3D Effect: Achieved through creative use of layers, the AGI (Adventure Game Interpreter) engine divided the screen into foreground, background, and player layers. This gave the illusion of depth and interactivity.

Character Movement: The freedom to move in eight directions and interact with objects in a visually convincing space set a new standard for adventure games.

2. Adventure Game Interpreter (AGI) Engine

Sierra developed the AGI engine specifically for King’s Quest. This software framework was groundbreaking for its time, allowing:

Cross-Platform Compatibility: AGI was portable across different systems, from the IBM PCjr to later platforms like the Apple II and Tandy 1000.

Event-Driven Programming: AGI allowed designers to script events and interactions, decoupling game logic from graphical rendering—a novel approach in the early 80s.

3. Advanced Graphics for the IBM PCjr

The IBM PCjr was an ambitious but underpowered machine, featuring:

Intel 8088 Processor (4.77 MHz): A modest CPU that could struggle with heavy computations.

16-Color Graphics (CGA Palette): While most PCs supported only four colors in CGA mode, the PCjr's extended graphics capabilities allowed for richer visuals.

3-Voice Sound (TI SN76496 Chip): This was a significant improvement over the beeps of the PC speaker, enabling a more immersive auditory experience.

King’s Quest took full advantage of these features:

Rich Color Palette: By designing scenes with careful attention to the 16-color limit, Sierra created lush, vibrant environments that brought the fairytale world to life.

Smooth Animation: Despite hardware limitations, the game’s character animations and environment transitions were fluid and detailed.

4. Text Parser and Command System

While maintaining the classic adventure game tradition of text input, King’s Quest improved upon the interface:

Contextual Parsing: The text parser was more forgiving and sophisticated than previous games, interpreting a wider range of player inputs like "Take sword" or "Open door."

Visual Feedback: Unlike purely text-based games, the parser’s output was directly reflected in the graphical world, making the player’s actions feel meaningful and connected.

5. Disk Streaming and Memory Optimization

Given the IBM PCjr's limited 128 KB of RAM and floppy disk storage, Sierra engineers implemented innovative solutions to manage resources:

Dynamic Asset Loading: Only the necessary graphics, animations, and logic were loaded into memory at a time, minimizing RAM usage.

Compression Techniques: Graphics and animations were heavily compressed to fit on the game’s floppy disks, requiring clever algorithms to decompress assets on-the-fly.

The Impact of King’s Quest

The technical achievements of King’s Quest went beyond its hardware. It had a profound impact on the gaming industry and paved the way for future innovations.

Pushing Hardware to Its Limits: By making the most of the IBM PCjr’s unique capabilities, King’s Quest demonstrated what was possible with even modest computing power.

Setting a Standard for Interactive Storytelling: The game’s rich narrative, combined with its visuals and player agency, set the benchmark for future adventure games.

Expanding the Gaming Audience: The colorful, family-friendly design attracted a broader audience, including casual gamers and younger players.

Influencing Game Design: The AGI engine became the foundation for future Sierra titles, including Space Quest, Police Quest, and Leisure Suit Larry.

Panasonic 3DO - Ultraman Powered

Title: Ultraman Powered / ウルトラマンパワード

Developer: TOSE Software

Publisher: Bandai

Release date: 20 March 1994

Catalogue No.: FZ-SJ1451

Genre: 2D Fighting

Apparently the 3DO has quite a fair share of manga and anime licensed games. Not as much as the PC Engine, Saturn, PS1 or Dreamcast, but quite a fair number regardless. Anyway, Ultraman Powered for 3DO. The player is cast as Ultraman, a Japanese masked superhero who has to fight the weirdest creatures that arrived from somewhere to destroy everything. Some of them look like giant dinosaurs and the others are too odd to describe. This title is a one-on-one fighting game. The player has the option to fight in versus mode or story mode. Also, a two-player mode is included, to battle against human opponents. The first Ultraman game I ever played was Ultraman Fighting Evolution Rebirth on the PS2.

A little bit about me and my 3D art

Hey there 😁

Wohoo~ my first text only post! 🤪😁

Sorry for not being really active recently. As I started my account here, I wanted to be as active as possible. Boy, oh boy. I didn't expect my frustration towards 2D and 3D art slowing me down to a point where I say that I need a break. I am just writing my frustration down and a bit about me and my 3D art to give a little bit of insight.

I always loved games, since solid 20 years I wanted to do, what the pros are doing: 3D modeling. It's so insane how graphics have changed and what people can do in their free time if it's their hobby. And don't get me started on 3D printing! I would love to sculpt characters that never have received an official figure or my own creations!

I just don't like animation.

When I got my tablet PC for drawing, I was absolutely dumb af. I didn't know that tablet PCs could handle apps for 3D softwares nowadays. Just because of YouTube recommendations I got into sculpting in the first place. Dumb as I am, I downloaded the app, followed some tutorials and quickly became better. I shit you not, that I was and still living my dream and passion. Sometimes, I feel pressured regardless. 20 years not being able to learn it because of not owning a desktop PC that could handle countless polygons making me feel as if I have to learn with light speed. I always wanted to model people and everything that popped up in my mind. I have aphantasia after all, but to me it's less a problem as long it's 3D. Let me draw hands and even an AI is better. It's infuriating sometimes.

I am sculpting for about 6-7 months now, I made so much progress, understanding, learning, and there is still so much to more learn. But I can't and it's driving me nuts. It's only because of these damn hardware issues. At 5 million polygons, my program could crash. At 7-8 million polygons everything slows down and could crash. I can't even save a picture of my progress, since it also crashed by just saving it. It's insane. 😮‍💨

If you ask me about low-poly art then my answer is no. It's not my cup of tea. I would rather do manga, furry and semi-realistic. Of course also NSFW, because I don't mind modeling nude male, female or in between bodies. Perhaps some creatures if I have an idea for it. I love how a simple sketch can turn into something you can turn around. Things like the G-Virus from Resident Evil or the cat with the Tetris stones are things I really loved to sculpt. The cat took me 3 days because, I was constantly sitting in front of my Samsung tablet PC which isn't suited for sculpting like a hermit!😅 If I would have known earlier that it is possible for a tablet to handle 3D things, I would have saved more money and then I would own a tablet PC that could handle more by now. But since I was living under a massive rock, I of course, didn't know better. It's s simply frustrating when you cut or increase the polygon count and suddenly the program you love crashes and everything is gone if I am unlucky. At the moment it's so frustrating, even opening my 3D program feels forced because I know, I'll never be able to do all these crazy stunts and let characters and creatures look realistic enough that even I am satisfied. I am opening my software and I already know, at 6 million polygons, I have to save the shit out of my file and hope that for example fabric like textures don't look too bad when I scale them down. It's because I don't have much possibility to do good retopology to reduce the polygon count and baking. Of course I still have to learn a lot, but I can't really learn it. There is a program explicitly for so-called retopology, but it isn't available for Android users. And my PC? Not possible. I tried with Blender already.

And if you have read so far, let me say thank you.💜 In case I need longer with uploading a thing, it's because I was foaming (silently) again, not because I was lazy. Then I simply took a break, watching more sculpting tutorials and pretending to not be a hermit. 😁

Essential Tools and Software Covered in a Game Design Course

Embarking on a Game Design Course opens up a world of creativity, equipping aspiring developers with the skills and tools to create captivating gaming experiences. A well-structured course ensures you’re proficient in industry-standard tools and software that serve as the backbone of game development. Here’s a look at the essential tools and software you’ll encounter.

1. Unreal Engine 5

Unreal Engine 5 is a cornerstone of modern game development. Its advanced capabilities, like Nanite for detailed modeling and Lumen for dynamic lighting, allow developers to create stunningly realistic games. Many courses, including specialized Unreal Engine courses, focus heavily on this engine to teach students how to design immersive worlds, craft engaging gameplay, and optimize performance. With Unreal Engine 5, you’ll learn both the technical and creative aspects of game design.

Another popular tool covered in a Game Design Course is Unity. Known for its versatility, Unity supports both 2D and 3D game creation and is ideal for developing mobile, PC, and console games. With its intuitive interface and robust asset store, Unity provides an accessible entry point for beginners while offering advanced features for seasoned developers.

3. Visual Scripting and Programming Tools

Modern game design often involves visual scripting, allowing developers to create interactivity without extensive coding knowledge. Unreal Engine’s Blueprints is a prime example, enabling students to design game logic visually. Additionally, courses introduce programming languages like C# and Python to empower students to write custom scripts and develop unique gameplay mechanics.

4. Design and Modeling Software

Courses often include tools like Blender or Maya for 3D modeling and animation. These programs are essential for creating characters, props, and environments that bring games to life. For 2D games, tools like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator are typically used.

5. Project Management and Collaboration Tools

Game development is a collaborative process, and tools like Trello, Jira, or GitHub are integral for managing projects and teamwork. Learning to use these tools ensures that you’re ready for real-world game development workflows.
