Editorial

welcome Editorial

Welcome

To Issue 12, and a whole year in business!

Our sister magazine 3DCreative hit its irst

birthday earlier this year and now 2DArtist has

reached the same milestone. We hope we

have managed to get this far because we are

providing the magazine that you want! We are

always open to suggestions and critiques for

improving the mag and we read every email you

send us! Keep ‘em coming in and we hope not

to disappoint in the new year when we unveil the

new look-better-bigger 2DArtist magazine.

Tutorials

This month we begin a new era of tutorials at

2DArtist. We have so many quality tutorials

planned for next year, it’ll blow your proverbial

socks off!... Or tights... Or speedo’s.... Depends

on the individual really: Colouring in a Cartoon

Style with Siku, entitled ‘Cornelius’; Digital

Painting Concepts, or Tuc-Tuc as we are calling

it; Part 1 of a 3-part series on Painting Armour,

this month: European Knight & Medieval. Then

we have 3 Project Overviews by Sam Lamont,

a huge success and this year is

gearing up to be even better.

About us

Zoo Publishing is a new company comprising

of a small team here in the Midlands, UK.

This magazine is our irst project which we

are hoping, with the support of the community,

will build into a great resource and a highly

anticipated monthly release. The ‘support of

the community’ is an interesting point, where

a ‘magazine for 2D artists’ is not an original

idea, but the marketing and distribution of this

magazine, as far as we know, is a irst. It follows

the principle of traditional magazines that are

sold on news stands and in many outlets, but

being a digital downloadable mag the many

established web communities on the net are our

outlets and news-stands. 2DArtist is supported

by 1DCafe, 2DValley, 3DKingdom, 3DLinks,

3dm3, 3DPalace, 3DResources, 3DStudio.

Jean-Marie Vives

After a few years as an Illustrator,

I worked as a matte painter for

ten years, painting glass plates,

digital matte paintings. Now, without however

abandoning the cinema, I have turned towards the

include a book & animation ilm in 3D.
