I’ve started this blog about a game that I’m making and adding some tutorials first one is about som concept art in gimp! 
If someone has some feed back that would be great!
I’m gonna do some other blender to 2d tutorials as well later on.
Some great free tutorials from the very skilled artists at the art department.

The links are quite good , I think they can really help in making a laymen a. a very good 2D designer to a great extant.
Hello everyone
During my usual sweep of the darksides of the internet I came across the following series “Intro to Game Concept Art” by “General Lee” from Redditt University.
The first part is at:
Subsequent Parts are here:

If you want to be able to master difficult perspective drawings geared towards aircraft/vehicles, check out Scott Robertson’s book, “How to Draw”. Loads of fun. After going through the book, I feel like I have Blender on just paper and ink.
Go through Bart’s site (Blendernation advert page) and pick up a hardback at amazon.
Also recommend (as mentioned earlier) Feng Zhu’s amazing OCD landscape tutorials on youtube.
O.K. this is my first time visiting the 2D forum and I want to know what 2D program those tutorials are for. I have 3 diffent 2D programs I have: Adobe Photoshop, MGI PhotoSuite 95 (really old program), and Freeware of project dogwaffle.
Hi all, I just wanted to add my 2 cents. I use SketchBook Pro by Autodesk and Photoshop however, for my everyday, bread and butter sketching and experimenting SketchBook is really great. Very powerful yet simple to use.
I use it to create the majority of my 2D tutorials on The Drawing Factory.
Here you can find some examples of the nice renderings you can achieve on Sketchbook Pro using a tablet obviously, with this series of tutorials drawing the characters from Pixar movie Inside Out.

Mostly digital tutorials with photoshop, but some pencil tutorials and fundementals.
Tons of great tutorials from the guys at cgcookie
I’m working through a site called Draw a Box which lays a foundation for pretty much anything else one would be working with (tutorials, books, websites).
