Wink Nuhhh having trouble

K ma dawg rufus was like "o jed i want u 2 make sum parachutes 4 zombie hunt event"

So Yeah I made one animated it fully, kinda failed, deleted it.

Tried again...



(It's outline isn't done, and ignore the string)


problem is... I like it, but I think I like it more for being a friggin hot air balloon and not a parachute.

Thinking of scrapping this one too, just posting it here, to see if you people think theres a way i can improve it in order for me to salvage it :P!

I agree, This is a hot air balloon not a parachute. Hope you are using reference pictures.

What Elk said: a parachute is not a hot air balloon. The clothe part has to be cut, so it would more look like a half hot air balloon.

Good job on it though, I really like your style and your own AA by hand

I did use a reference somewhat... I seen an old war picture of a parachute that was very spherical in shape, I liked how it looked so I tried to make it.

I've started to remake it with physics in mind this time...

+

Elk I got an F in physics when I was at school, the reference was much needed thanks

and Soala, thanks too...

+

I've not scrapped the design whatsoever, it's now not a parachute or a hot air balloon. I've just recoloured it orange and gave it a face. It's now a huge pumpkin hanging lantern for Halloween

Nice parachute you got there now, Jed!
To be honest, I can't think of any way to detail it too, but it sure needs a lot of work.

lol, Thanks Soala.

It doesn't need alot of work though wtf >. As it's only a small thing.

Just it being an aired out parachute which naturally would be really smooth and curved... I just can't seem to think of a way to detail it or shade it further without losing the Graal charm.

I meant brainstorming, I can't really see myself how to detail such thing either, the design isn't obvious in my head =/

Make where the strings go up to the middle darker (1px), and then surround them give a puffing out effect.

I really love your style. Don't worry about the coin, there should be no problem looking at it if it's animated!
