What? 2D is still a big thing, and it's often used in conjunction with 3d. Knowing 2d will also help you even if you are doing a piece that is 100% 3d.

There is a whole feng zhu video about this. Look for the video on 2D vs 3D.

>talking about props
>concept art is just props
I hope you don't think this. Maybe you do though, because you've been stuck for years.

>Art is just concept design

You need to know both to be good, faggot.

They go hand in hand, there are things you can do much quicker with 2D skills and things that could save you a buttload of time if you knew 3D.

this

They say they want to be a concept artist
They think they want to be a concept artist
But they don't really want to be a concept artist
And that's why they draw, they draw because they want to draw not because they want to work as a cog in a machine they don't care about.
And there's nothing wrong with that
The concept art industry sucks, get a day job and draw what you want in your own time. Maybe you'll get lucky and someone will like what you draw and make a movie out of it where some sucker will have to draw a load of vases in a 5 second scene that nobody cares about

Follow your dreams responsibly, take control of your own life

Because some faggots can do 3d but can't paint, so a 2d artist has to give them the designs that they're too retarded to come up with themselves.

Not to mention, most of us probably want to be illustrators, not work in the Chinese game """"industry"""".

>Worst if someone said they wanted an environment for a new game I would just open maya and model it. With modular pieces its really easy to kit bash stuff together.

And that's exactly why you don't have a job in concept art and no one will ever ask you to do an environment for a new game.

Chauvinism of disciplines - learn everything, why limit yourself.

Drawing as a tool of thinking, model as a tool of thinking - different mediums have different strengths and limitations.


It is immature to divide.

Its all visual communication at the end of the day, something is suited for one purpose, something is suited for another purpose.

Yet the concept art produced today has inferior designs compared to the works of people like Syd Mead, Ralph McQuarrie and Ron Cobb.
