Greetings,

Here is one piece I have been working on recently. The main character was done with ZSpheres and detailed, I then rigged and posed him and re-imported into Z2. The trees in the foreground were also modeled out of ZSpheres. Rocks were made from alphas and then converted into Polymesh3d. The character's equipment was modelled in Wings3d and detailed in Z2. Finally I used PhotoShop and Painter.

Here is the ZSphere tool next to the posed and re-imported mesh.

Hey everybody, thanks alot to all of you for the great comments! :D

While I was working on this image I came to an interesting problem when trying to import the posed mesh as a morph target. No matter what I tried it always horribly deformed the model. I think I'll make a new thread on this in the Questions & Troubleshooting Forum, but has anybody had trouble with this before?

Thanks again,
Matt :)

Just wondering, but can you explain / tutorial how you do his hair?

Is that using fiber material, or just a color texture, and you made it "fuzzy"?


I have a dog and a cat that I've been trying to texture for sometime, but everything either comes out looking very flat, or very crappy with fiber....
