Hi This is my first post to Zbrush central
Actualy this is my first work in zbrush.I'm a little bit newbie in this program.This is my work i made for Fameous Thrash Metal Band Megadeths design contest.It took something like 1.5 week because i had to try so many things in zbrush to understand the possibilities actually im following zbrush since 1.55 but i had so many questions to ask. ok i speak too much letme upload it.Then i'll tell how i did

megadethsubmission.jpg (http://javascript%3Cb%3E%3C/b%3E:zb_insimg%28%27%27,%27megadethsubmission.jpg% 27,1,0%29)

i made backgroudn pipes in photoshop first and i took plane3d and made a poly mesh 3d i simply took it to projection master (deformation) and added soem cylinders in the same size with pipes in the image.So? image became 3d

ive imported a skull model and add some details after dividing.

Visor is made with zspheres.

Head piece this engine like thingie made from a cylinder and you can see Ring 3d pipes on it.
Chain is made with ring 3d too.

Some tutorials really helped me, like zlights by southern and zcurves really made me understand zspheres abit more.Ive realised so many tricks from Dino texture tutorial.


Well whatever if you tellme what do you think ill appreciate

First of all as an old metal head from the mid 80's who loves megadeth maybe you'll want to take my comments with a pinch of salt. :lol: The cover fits in perfectly with their recent album covers over the last decade or so, it's a good looking eye catching design that helps to convey the image of the band.
the top part of the head where the tubes are coming out maybe could have done with a bit more variation in color, but thats a personal taste thing only. 5 Stars for the reason that I like the image. I remember meeting the band years ago, they say you should never meet your heros....they certainly got tha right. Mustain had just come off heroin and was a right depressing bugger LOL.:lol: Still I bet that cover cheered them up a bit.

Looking really nice. Just that the band as it is today needs a cover with flowers or dolphins.

Thanks for comment Wayne i think you are right i just didnt want to disturb the general look i was already thinking of making some extra wires but they cover the background too much so i didnt like it. i agree with your idea
i should change its color or i should make a multi-texture like half rusty half wire kind of
Thanks again
