Hi everyone!

im just woundering why there is no 2d forum here.
Its a important to have nice sketches when you model in 3d
so i cant see why there is nothing about 2d here.

I second that.

EDIT: They would probably consider it part of the WIP forum, since most all 3D art starts out as a 2D sketch.

I seem to remember there being a Simply Photoshop being advertised a long time ago, or was that just my imagination.

If it still exists, that your ticket Anglad.

Simply Photoshop died about... 7-8 months ago.

A 2d forum would be could just to post ideas and sketches, hell even do a sketch a month and the best one is used for the challenge!!

Concept is always good, it helps you understand volumes of objects be them organic or hardsurface. A speed modelling forum would be good to as that helps improve your knowledge of 'form' too.

Yeah, I agree with Jay and Angalid - I think a 2D forum could be cool - it would be good to have a place where we can show concept sketches or even some of our other work.
