Articles - Daerone

Hi I'm Daerone. I have for years watched people use WoW models in Warcraft 3 on the site Warcraft Underground, and always been fascinated by it. After 2 year of watching other people modify and change models, I began to learn how I could become a modeler and 2D artist like others. I started out by making icons for Warcraft 3. These icons where picture I would have taken of the models where I afterwards Photoshop the picture so that they may fit into icons. This started my knowledge of 2D graphics. I soon began to make skins for the models, so that they would appear different from what they started too look like. This gave me a huge knowledge about the colors and their value on the model. Also i would learn how to set colors together so that the colors would harmonize. I then soon learned how to work with 3D models which was what I had dreamed of ever since I had seen the WoW models for Warcraft 3.
