Your concept art videos are the best art content on yt, hope you do much more of them in the future (i know there are much of them on your channel but i watched every single one lol) .

I absolutely LOVE these two drawings! The design, the somewhat desaturated colors, the level of detail... Amazing work, Trent!

You are basically the cool uncle that gives their art nephews and nieces art tips

I love these videos, honestly if I’m ever drained or stuck on something I instantly come here and you most likely you have a video on it, which is very useful as these wicked videos really boot my excitement tenfold for my own projects! Thank you for making these!

Starting off my Friday sipping some coffee and watching this magic. Always an inspiration, thank you Trent!

Loving me up that whimsical fantasy! Honestly, writing down your own questions is key.

This is literally the coolest art video I have ever watched, thank you so much! Also, your art is amazing!!!

Trent, your enthusiasm is contagious :D . I'm at a time where my art goals are getting dimmed by the other responsibilities, but your enthusiasm is helping me not giving up on them. Thank you, man o/

Im learning a lot from you ever since i found your channel. Its not on the same style but in terms of inspiration and skill for me you are one of the best.

Woah I did not expect these drawings to be colored! O.O So prettyyy

I am a huge fan and I am following your tutorials for a long time thank you for such amazing work

Really enjoy your videos. I love how you express and give information. Your vocie is a plus+++

Awesome reminder of questions to ask during creation. I was finishing up an asset pack for a game I'm working on while watching this video, now I need to rethink some of these designs 😂. Thank you for the great content!

Fantastic video once again Trent! Just killing it.

Darn you Trent, I am supposed to rest my wrist but you're inspiring me :)

Great video and advice to be critical and really create some depth - can't wait to utilize all of this!

Awesome video. Thank you

Man, your work is so cool! Such an interesting style, and this video with your explanation behind your concept art is really nice to have while watching you paint. And what you said about Star Wars is spot-on. I've been saying the same thing since The Phantom Menace came out; the stories and lore and music all come together beautifully, but it's that used, lived-in world that makes it perfect. Star Trek is really neat, I love Battlestar Galactica (both original and remake), I recently finished watching The Expanse, which was awesome, but a lot of it is all so polished and high-tech... but Star Wars, that universe is worn and re-purposed. It has history. And even though it was a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, it has so much familiarity.

these buildings gave me maximum Grandia vibes. love your work Trent :)

This is very great! I'm now thinking more in my creating process, thanks a lot!!

Hey Trent Love all the videos and the kind of like cooooool yet wise energy you seem to emanate keep doing what you do ! ^^

Just binge watching as many concept art videos as possible for my art portfolio uni application

🙋🏻‍♂️ any artist that i can follow or paid tutorials ( courses ) to learn environment concept art ( stylized houses , objects ) , like the 1 shown in the video .

The textures are so good.

It's amazing to see how you think of the details and make yourself part of the world.. Also such entertaining videos 😃✨

maaaaan this dude. he makes my day.

After switching to an art major because I reaaaaalllllyyy wanted to up my skills instead of passively go with the flow of a psych major, watching those videos shitting on art degrees got me anxious that maybe the road for an artist was more narrow than I naively thought but your videos are so inspiring and helpful!!! I wanted to take classes so when I bring my ideas into reality, it can be aesthetically pleasing, makes sense, and accurate to my imagination, so hearing your advice gets me so pumped to cram knowledge into my brain while feeling relieved that it can still pay off (career wise? financially? idk, I just feel relieved!)

Much love brother. You are such an inspiration.

Amazing art and words

I always learn a lot from your videos thanks

Loving the intro song man!

Trent I'm deffently buying your courses. For a long time I been struggling learning on my own after college. So some online courses seems to be the best way to improve with out breaking the bank on going to a university.

MAN… SOLID video and questions to ask and think about, for certain! It makes total, complete sense. 1000%! I don’t know anything about illustration / concept art - but, I am going to learn it all. Thank you greatly for sharing your insights, brother - for real, greatly valued! 🇺🇸

This was video was helpful. Im trying to learn how to get better at this kind of art. Thank you for posting

I am not an artist but you are inspiring me to be one but your insights are very detailed and understandable. I am taking out time to draw again and implement your advice. Keep up your good work.

Great work sir, I learned alot from them Twilight taters!!

Your videos are crisp, on point and visually pleasant to look at. Very inspiring, but still so underrated! I'm currently creating some world-building illustrations and environment reels for my manga project, and I'll leave link your videos there as always as soon as I can showcase my results on social media!

No nasty comments, just saying thanks for sharing some of your knowledge from the vast pools you have at the ready. Keep putting out great videos like these that gives people like me (no art abilities) hope!

I was actually wondering about structure concept art. I've been trying to reverse engineer Pokemon Mystery Dungeon buildings to make some redesigns, and they're so magical. How do they do it? For that matter, how do you make a building? Lasso silhouette, line, render, remove lines, render more?

What’s the song you started with? I love the into song! Very nice painting btw- from the future!

Thanks! Future Game developer here. 💗

Thank you, Trent

Every 6 months he shares his secret sauce, because sauce can have many taste, you can keep adding new flavors

I like the new tune

Exactly what I was searching for :D

Yo, Trent. You're a real one!!!

you are amazing!!! thanks a lot for sharing so much knowledge

Nice

Ah yes, the humble Trent is back

How do you fit individual buildings with their individual style into a cityscape while still preserving that style? Or does the overall feel of the city supplant or abut the neighborhood feel?

Excellent as always. Thanks! I have one request but it may touch bits and pieces of this and other videos. I have been trying to write a story to create concept art around it and build my portfolio. But while answering questions that came into my head, I have gone so deep into the story that it started to feel overwhelming as the number of things kept on increasing. How do I work around that so that there’s a basic story skeleton, which also feels well established and also enough to create art around for portfolio? Maybe then in future I can come back and dive deep. Hope this makes sense.

also love new intro/background music, remind me something from Chrono Cross vibe

I can't help but think every time I watch one of your videos "he would make such a awesome Dungeon Master for a DnD campaign." The sheer detail and thought you put into story telling just for a piece, i feel like would translate so well over to DnD. I know you probably would never have time for it, but damn that would be cool. Trent hosts a Twilight Monk DnD campaign, so neat.

Trent you should do some art for new company of Mr. Morhaime! They just started new game dev company, kinda big ass news!

Just subbed to your channel your advice is really helpfull

How do you come up with those concept or design

Thanks for your advice Trent! i've got a question, as environmental concept artist how much information 3D modelers needs about buildings in scene? Should I approach it same way as a character turnaround and draw it in multiple angles? It still not so clear for me.

Its different for each company. But I recommend doing 3/4 views, and rendering it in the art style of the game. Also do research on what the game studio concept art looks like. Everywhere is different.

Who would dare write a mean comment on this! This is so sweet, instructional, and so wholesome.

Yo trent, sometimes when im drawing flora and forestery elements they can tend to look messy, any chance you could help a brother out with some advise on drawing and painting nature elements?

I would really like to see a video of time how much time do you actually spend before, during, after cleanup how much time for a particular type of piece an enviro, a character, do you spend 1 hour planning, or 2 days less or more once you start how long do you spend blocking out the base in min/hrs? how long do you "kindof" spend on detailing? How long would you take to make a flat char painting? What is the sortof normal amount of time you would spend on a 3d char to detail it? I've seen lovely things that buddy took 3 weeks on is that normal? (it's not to me, but...) to work 2-3 weeks on a single character model in 3d? a concept sketch, do you whip that out in 2-3 hours or less or do you spend more than a few hours on certain things? Think of when you were 1/4 as experienced as you are how long do you spend on most projects? Not necessarily for a deadline, but that info is cool but for real how long do you focus one one thing? and do you work on several things over time? or do you stay focused on one thing? I like your vids a lot even though I don't do your thing.

I used to airbrush and I would work on 6 things at once over a few days(long ago). I really just need to focus on one thing at a time for longer. It's hard. I've never stayed on one single piece for more than an hour at a time. Things are already looking much better for me already, I feel a lot better about what I'm doing. I'm really just a hobbyist but I have my own vid/cinematic projects and I need to stay on each one much longer. Thx. It was when you mentioned the dragon took you about 3 hours.
