Naahh!!! im not that good looking.... :p

hello everyone!

have been doing detailed observation of anatomy these days...and a bit of necessary touching of my body.... ;) ....let me tell you this.....it works!

Base mesh was modelled in Max...detailed in zbrush..
its in its initial stage as you can see.....but i couldnt keep it to myself....

the ear came out better than expected...more work needed on nose...

what do you think...any major changes needed before projecting?

p.s. i have found 2 skin shaders in the forum...both from antropus da great! :D ..and am looking for somemore....well...i have gone through almost all the threads...but mostly the new ones....does anyone have skin shaders they may share please?


and oh yeah!....can anyone please tell me how you guys do your lip texture..they look so real!

btw....i learned today...that if you just "goof off nad play" in zbrush..you wont get anywhere.....but if you experience and try to have fun...youll get nioce results......


thanks alot!

does anyone have skin shaders they may share please?

It's a funny game :cool:

Check out Kris Kosta's video tutorial on this address:

http://pixologic.com/zbrush/class/artaction.html

That will show you how to get those lip textures.

Use Sokars skin shaders (couldn't find the original thread):

I also suggest you add some wrinkles and pores (Rimasson and Antropus are masters here - just search the threads, especially the 'artists in action' series)

All the best, Jit.

Looking good, bud. Keep at it.

well...heres a quick peek at the texture underway...wanted it to look complete so i put eyes on him....

i have taken all the critiques in consideration and changed it accordingly..however..i am not completely finished......

well..this is what basically it will look like....with better texture...a SSS type render...shadows and all kinds of stuff...oh yeah...facial hair too! :)

take care everyone!
btw....is there anyway to get the pictures antropus used.....
