ZBRUSH FORUM CHALLENGE - Show your first work!

[hitch]

Hi all, I was scrounging around my collection of backup CD's when i stumbled across somthing that brang back some memories, my first three attempts at zbrush,which were also my first 3 attempts at 3d, done back in the day(some time around mid 2000, i think with a demo version of 1.13 maybe?) I had completly forgetten that I had made these and i also apparently, had forgotten how much i sucked back then. If i remember correctly I didn't even know that there was a layer pallete when I made these.

If anyone else wants to share their first attempts at the program we all love, post them here, it might help some of the newbies realise that there is light at the end of the very long newbie tunnel.

[The Namek]

hehe , the oldest I could find arent that old , most of em were saved on another computer which I now dont have anymore :(

So this would be the oldest I still have.. but my former images were much much worse :p

lol, ever noticed how in all our old pics we find some excuse to not have to do the ears? I've used headphones, used alien ears, placed the characters hand in the way, and used a helmet to cover up or avoid doing ears. None of my old heads have ears. That griffin, is not bad :) :tu:

My first ZBrush piece,though I'd spent many
hours prior playing around and getting familiar with ZBrush's tools first.

Nice to see all your first efforts too, and seeing how you've all progressed since.
Well done :)

Hi.My name is shikuri. ;)
I am one in the first stage when this picture is existing.
This image was made from the demonstration version of ZBrush1.23. This is made of two parts which are the head and the body.
At this time, I did not know adjusting the numerical value of a polygon yet.
Therefore, neither a hand nor a leg was able to be made satisfactorily.
And adjustment of a lighting was not known, either.
And how to change the size of a screen was not learned.
The background was made from photoshop.
And while it has been poor also at my English, it is not progressing. It does not change with this time ...

[zhuzhu]

yestday,i just konw z brush,and the frist time i start to use it.i don't konw how to modeling,just use some brush do the speedpainting. i saw there are many z brush master here, i hope i can learn more.

http://www.5d.cn/bbs/uploadFiles/2003641217324725.jpg

[gummie]

That's really great painting, Zhuzhu! And welcome to ZBC. :)

I hope you will have fun modelling, just click on a sphere tool and draw it then in the Transform palette, click on the Edit switch (it's just below the first lit up cursor). Or hit "T" on your keyboard.
Click outside to rotate. Draw on the model to model.

Modelling is very simple, you just use the 4 modes in edit mode, each have their own function although most people just use Draw (the cursor +) and Move, second after cursor.

Experiment and see what you like for yourself, if you really want to see a great modelling demonstration, download Ken Brilliant's alien script. It's awesome!

You can find it here: http://www.pixolator.com/zbc-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=005141&p=

Have fun!

wow i didn't expect so many good first images, the level of talent here is pretty high, also interesting to see that not every one tried to make a head to start off with(up until now I thought that it was zbc law :) )

[manitu]

Hello,
This is my first creation,it is not finished and it was only a training for me to learn Zbrush.I Hope you like Mr. Longface. http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/uploaded_from_zbc/200306/user_image-1055333901xcy.jpg

[Dave Dunn]

Nice to see how different everyone approaches ZBrush
Ive been reading and trying and reading again
downloaded a lot of scripts though I dont do that my self yet
And now I understand a lot of nessecary elements of the program
stil I am tinkering a bit not getting exactly what I want
But I m getting there soon
Here is my latest just finished
I called it Diamond Bark
Played with the render fog settings alphas and some lightning flattenlayers is off
http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/uploaded_from_zbc/200306/user_image-1055337237nwd.jpg
And this one is with eight layers but ZBrush crashed before I could capture the nice one so that is lost
http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/uploaded_from_zbc/200306/user_image-1055337611hkt.jpg

I know they are not masterpieces at all
but it shows what you can do with just a bit of basic knowlege of ZBrush
I think it is incredible software once you
master it

Well I haven't used Zbrush for creating models... I am still learning it...:D

I used it for creating illustration.... this was the first illustration I created in zbrush ...

Didn't think I still had it! Here is my very first work in Zbrush. Back then I didn't even think I would ever be able to learn how to use this program

Enjoy Hopefully it'll make top row

[EvilSmiley]

This is the first model I made with zbrush. It's not the greatest (as most first models aren't) but it helped me learn the program.

[Blaine91555]

OK - You asked for it. ;)

This is my first head and first model in 3D other than farting around with Bryce, Vue and Poser. Using other peoples models was very unsatisfying. headexpress1.jpg The first day I downloaded a low poly head from a post. I do not remember who's it was. It was a few hundred poly's. Did the whole thing with the inflate brush and move because I had not figured anything else out yet. Way to many poly's too soon.

[Miaka]

Hi I just started out using Zbrush and I have to say !!I LOVE IT!!. Here's my first model took me a while about 6 hours (but i have definitely got the bug) and the geometry is kack, but I'll get the hang of it in the end. Cropped down in photoshop and applied quick blur filter pass as at time I did not understand fully render options. Anyhow any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

[Echo9]

After learning it in 4 days I got a chance finnaly to put together something from start to finish and I love it! As any thing ells in life I cant get better if other ppl dont give me feed back so please send me a tell and give me sugestions :)

Well since everyone else is doing it. Heres mine..I plan to fix it eventually.

Hi, this was my first zbrush job from last fall. I had tried posting it before, but there was a snafu with my login that just got resolved.

[tbsy]

Hi, this was my first zbrush job from last fall. I had tried posting it before, but there was a snafu with my login that just got resolved.

Here is my zsphere construction for this fellow.


Followed by his skin

Then lots of higher subdiv sculpting ensued leading to
a check of the polygroups

Then a surface render

And next is the core of the idea. I took a leaf I had drawn in illustrator, converted it to photoshop, loaded
it as an alpha in Zbrush, then used it as a cookie cutter
for transparency (NOTE: this had to be the last step before dropping to 2.5D as Zbrush was crashing all over the place with invisible geometry. Could not even save and load the file. It took a few go's to get geom and uv mapping just where I wanted it.) This is post painting the leaves, rendering, and background having been cleared to transparent in photoshop.

Then his first application (as a gif version here, pdf too big)

And finally his placement in the forest( as a jpg here,pdf too big. Note that the margin got cropped when I did a jpg for here. It does actually have a little white space around it.)


This was my first application of Z brush, having only picked it up in August at Siggraph 06, so any feedback and or suggestions are more than welcome!

Thanks,

tom

This was back in the 1.23b days (before Zspheres, millions of polys, GI renders).
Made with the demo, this image won a contest (the award being the full version of the program). God it seems like only yesterday but I think it was almost 4 years ago.

Megatronics: How did you get your dog ears stretched so well? I have just started a dog and I am already having fits with the ears.

Skylertonne: I seem to recognize that guy on the right too! I think I have seen him a couple of times now. And the center is looking Much smoother than your initial face! Shaping up nicely.

Dani: Interesting geometry, what do you have planned for it. Also a lovely job with the texturing!

Mahlikus: Very nice! Although if I came in with something like him, it would not have gone down so well. "Explore your dark side...And help create a community bike trail!" just does not seem to ring quite right... grin

Megatronics: How did you get your dog ears stretched so well? I have just started a dog and I am already having fits with the ears.Hi, tbsy. I started off with making this Zsphere...

Image1.jpg

Which resulted to this when converted to polymesh...

Image2.jpg

With this lo poly version I moved the points (vertex?) on the tips
of the ears up and to a point.

Cranked up the geometry then push, pulled and fine tuned...

And here's my sorry attempt at coloring it...

I still have a long way to go learning how to texture in ZBrush :o)

Like your skeleton but I think you should smooth it a bit more. :D

Heres mine still rough and im not yet good at texturing so i just did a quick brush ;)

This nasty thing was my very first sculpt and paint piece in ZBrush, on a cage model from Maya. I was amazed by the Projection Master for the first time :)
I exported the hirez model with his textures to XSI and did the final render there.

Here is my first creation....

I just began using Zbrush last night and stayed up all night learning.....

I've been scanning surfaces all around the house to use as textures, but the texture on the Tortoise is a free one I found. The Base is a scan I made from a Djembe drumhead.

Feel free to comment or ask questions....

my first work in zbrush hmm... i have a series that would be concidered my first work as a cluster of a centralized idea, my mmo.

This is supposed to be a gragantum tree at the center of a civilization

val home town.JPG

this is one that took me a long time and everything except for the egg like thing is 2.5d. it was on layers, i had barely any working knoledge of zbrush not sure if i joined the fourm or not at that time. this was last summer so it was around 5 seprate images. it was fun. i did look at some tuts but like only one, it was mostly just experimentation and a really rough storyboard idea.

Yes yes, I owe much to Digital Tutors! I didn't mean to take anything from them. What actually happened is that my own personal image didn't show up in my last post, so if you go to my website, you'll see some exercise samples I've made by following some of the Digital Tutors tutorials. (They are highly recommended, by the way!) But those will be taken down once I have my own portfolio, of course. Sorry if anyone thought I was trying to be sneaky!

I'll try to post the picture I intended to show here in my first post... RegRender2.jpg

[XxDarkMessiahxX]

The title just said your first Zbrush and this model is the first I did on Zbrush it never occured to me that I was taking someones credit...and I thaught that it is known so it did nt need mentioning :( sorry Digital tutors!!
Im not trying to be anal or nitpick, its just people around here are very serious about that kinda stuff. Some people have had their work stolen & used on other sites. Ive even seen people in this forum claim they've modeled something, only to be completely disproved & called out by the original artist. Plagerism can just get ugly around here.

[MattWoods]

Plagiarism (and I'll spell it correctly for you,) is a strong word to have associated with my first venture into the ZBrush community. I would consider it a complement to Digital Tutors that their iconic tutorials are so much a part of the digital art world that some of us may not have thought it always necessary to credit the source. Like seeing someone paint themselves a Mona Lisda or something -- you don't assume they are trying to pass it off as their own original. I do see your point, and I concede that in hindsight it would have been nice for me to include credit to Digital Tutors in my *personal* website. That will be rectified. But I never posted anything from Digital Tutors in this forum, nor have I ever posted anything here that was not 100% of my own creation, aside from the use of a loose concept sketch drawn for me by my girlfriend, with her permission, for me to create this female character in 3D. (Thanks again Erin!) And it was her idea for me to post here, but now I'm not feeling so welcome in this community.

I do take plagiarism VERY seriously, as well as the implication that I may have done so. If anyone else comes across this thread, and you feel that I am in the wrong for any reason, please add any thoughts you may have. I'm hoping my initial "welcome" to this community won't be an example of the rest of my time spent here trying to interact with fellow artists.

By the way XxDarkMessiahxX, last I checked, you didn't credit the sources for those inspiration pics you've borrowed for your own Pumkinhead posting. That may be good form, considering the issue you're arguing.

[XxDarkMessiahxX]

First off, Im not turning this into an argument thread, and I apologize if it came across as though I was acusing you of plagiarism (thanks for the correct spelling) And it was definately not my intention to make you feel unwelcomed here either.

Dont get me wrong, I love Digital Tutors. Ive got 20+ videos from their Maya & ZBrush collections. Ive just seen people around here post models and try to take credit for models they've taken right off a DT CD.

As for my Pumpkinhead thread, I feel that images Im using for reference are hardly relevant, considering the only thing Im claiming as my own is the model that built from scratch. In all honesty though, I'll include google as a refrence if anyone feels it's necessary.

Sorry for any misunderstanding & welcome to the community.

[sammysmee]

First ever Zbrush model...first ever attempt at 3D modelling characters. (id dont some room designs a few years ago)

i done this like. last thursday, im a newbie!

Unluckily, I lost the model when my old HD died and this is the only image that I have :cry: .

[GulagOne]

Nice. When I finally get to doing my first work, I will definitely post it here.

[asaxon]

My first full model and texture test.

It's far from finished in any way, shape or form and will probably end up in the bin, but I thought I'd post something to pass the time waiting for ZB3.

The idea behind it? Just something that popped in my head at the time.... a kind of mutant with no mouth, eyes or ears, hence the title "See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil"

Hello guys, this is my first real 3d work in zbrush of course, i haven't used any other 3d program before,i am a freelance flash developer and i am very new to the 3D world,after seeing so many cool characters and monsters done in zbrush i thought i would give it a shout.
This minotaur guy is made out of zspheres after a video tutorial from Kurv studios.

Nice work ilusiondigital!

Here is my first ZBrush head ever (used ZB2 only for adding details to meshs from other programms), done with ZB3 out of a polySphere

Just a doodle, first work with ZB3.
Greets, Oliver

[jbakutis]

Here's mine. Of course I just took a sphere, and stretched the hell out of it. The polys in the shoulder area are like a hundred times bigger than the others. Well,here it is a year later and I'm still totally hooked.I didn't know about "AAHalf button yet"(jaggedy) may1fulldone (3).jpg

[CubePusher]

Well heres the first model i ever did, only 1 of 4 actually, could never get to grips with importing stuff in and out of zbrush but when i get paid and get ZB3 hopefully i'll persevere. :)

This is one of my first sculptures in Zbrush, still learning a lot of the program, getting my sculpting skills in the program up to par first. Please let me know what you think. I think the next step is to rebuild the topology so it is less polys in areas. I plan to do an illustration with it.

One of the things i am doing is just sculpting a ton of stuff and saving the tools. i plan to have certain ones up for free use so people can play with them as they wish. I hope i am able to contribute to those that need help even though I am still learning myself.

Hi people,

here are a few of the models I have been working on.
Both rendered in C4D and modelled in C4D and Zbrush2.

First one is of a giant for "Jack and the Beanstalk".

giantzbrushed.jpg

This other one is an alien and I would like to thank my mother in law for the influence.

alienzbrushed1.jpg

I am yet to have a play with zbrush 3, it seems to slow when I am playing in it. Maybe my mem settings need adjusting. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.

[XxDarkMessiahxX]

Matasorapit, try going to prefrences>memory>compact mem and see what its set at. I think the general rule of thumb for ZBrush 2 was to not exceed the amount of ram in your system with that #... so 1 gig of ram means dont go over 1024, 2048 for 2 gigs of ram, etc... hope that helps. Also try the prefrences>performance option and see if you should be using multithreading.

[slantface]

Been meaning to learn Zbrush for quite some time. Im an architecture student during the year, but now that I have the time to learn something new, I got Zbrush 3 and have been playing with it for the last few days while watching as many tutorials as I can find. Here is my first sculpted face from a zsphere. Any hints would be great. Thanks

[ImmZ]

Thanks...:)

[slantface]

trying to learn on Zbrush 3. Finally time to try something outside of 3ds max and architecture school.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Not bad, I like the stylized head.....Keep playing around with Zbrush, i'm sure you pull out some nice work....:)

This is my first ZBrush model, I have no 3D background, have messe with Rhino... Started this skull in MudBox and then continued in ZBrush 3 as it was only made available to me a day ago...

Please if there are any DVD's available as tutorials, could someone please let me know, as our lines are poor in Namibia and download times take forever....

Thanks Ziggy.

Please comment on my model...

hi all:tu: anny good tut how to learn zbrush3

[XxDarkMessiahxX]

hi all:tu: anny good tut how to learn zbrush3
I just asked this over in the Digital Tutors forums. They said that there should be a new training video out soon that covers the new features of ZB3. Keep an eye out for Meats Meyer's new one too over at The Gnomon Workshop. Their site says it's coming out June 20th.

If you're eager to learn now though, I suggest starting with the the videos they both have for ZBrush 2. The same basic workflow still applies to ZBrush 3, just without the newer features. Gnomon's running a 20% off sale until May 31st on anything having to do ZBrush, so now would be the time to get it.

Ive got a copy of the ZBrush / Maya Pipeline DVD Im looking to get rid of cheap if you're interested.

[MSMBrush]

Andrewko grate work man

[b0dyr0ck2006]

This is my very first attempt at Zbrush, learning while i work. still hadnt got the hang of adding textures or paint effects by then.

[whoyaposan]

this is my first work in zb3 i love the new program, the texturing is great and sculpting in my opinion is a lot faster, this is a troll´s head i will be animating it in maya later on for now i´ve only done the color and part of the sculpting (wanted some feedback before i´m done) hope you´ll like it

[Adrian00]

First thing done in ZB3...Hope you like it

[mid_d88]

Hi! Well this is my first model, hope you like it!

[stove]

This is my first post on anything. I don't know what I'm doing in zbrush (I'm just starting to figure out what a polygon and a pixol are) so I can't really come up with any questions...but here is my first model. bonedude.jpg

[sebareo]

First work, learned a lot with this, mostly that there is a lot more to learn in zBrush- I Love this tool though, one of the most satisfying modeling/sculpting experiences. Can't wait to dig in to it!

[wayniac]

This piece was sculpted and painted by my 3 year old son. I of course turned off the zadd for him when it was time to poly paint, chose the std brush for him to brush with, toggled on x-sym etc, but all the brush work is his. I think it speaks volumes.

[zhaxen]

hi everyone,
glad to be here. very fine community with pro´s, semi´pro´s an whatever, respecting each others.
after weeks of waiting for my new comp (although i bought zbrush, but had no time to work with it at work) i started yesterday with my first steps (not to mention my really first try. i forgot to save as a tool and away it was..:-) ).

i started with a standard zsphere. doodling around with the basic tools to get a feeling for the handling. i always try to do following points when starting to get a grip on the model:

the big form influences the small form.
try to make a "logical" model ( mostly skeletal logic)
try to get the right expression.
avoiding patterns (i missed it. i used the horny horns^^).
try smooth out the proportions

took about 15min for this sketch (time for getting familiar with the tools not included. thx at this point for all the great tuts here and at the zbrush-wiki)


//edit:
minor update:
that prog is like swimming in an ocean, no shore in sight with all this tools and options^^.
just working on the details, between all those tutorials and infos i have to read. experimenting with brushes and shaders.

//edit:
time to leave that first work as it is.
the main handling of the basic modelling tools is no problem, but i still have probs how to handle subdivisions, distorted parts of the mesh and texturing.
was fun and now it time to dig deep into zbrush and the tutorials again
to get a proper workflow.

I've wanted to do this for so long but I have been overwhelmed by the great quality of artworks posted. :D This model was an example I've showed a friend of mine just to demonstrate what can be done in Z-Brush with a little bit of creative juice, I made a sketch and followed it but it was never finnished


Oh! :rolleyes: I also like to tell you guys about what happened to me lately. A point of change in my life when I've got accepted in UCLA for an MFA in Animation. But most of the samples I've sent were drawings.

[Silverleaf]

Greetings all, I am quite a new member to this forum and quite a new user of Zbrush. But since I started to use the program I have learned much. The very first model I created was somekind of test-rabbit. I tried almost everything starting from symmetry, mesh dividing, colorizing and so on. But at the end I was satisfied and here is my first model:

myguru.jpg

[aaronindhouse]

this is my first actual try at using zbrush. Its a little out of proportion here and there because i used zspheres which im not quite used to. I went for a kinda cartoonish looking old guy.

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e303/aaronindhouse/oldguybust.jpg

[zhaxen]

cant get rid of my first work. i worked on more texturing and skinning.
its still hard. i dont like the big horns so far. maybe some update later.

[Disco Stu]

this is my first model besides spheres to dig on. its a old lady stripper! Yeahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! never finished it the micky mouse hat was supposed to be the hair someday

[steevols]

My first, and I mean FIRST, attempt at a ZBrush model. I've got experience in trueSpace, Carrara, and Blender, but ZBrush blows them all away for organic modeling. 45 minutes of work on this. Quite proud of myself, really :)

Used Std brush, tweak, inflate, and a medium sized rake.

[mrmcpicklestein]

First ZBrush model ever. I created this samurai lookin face dude in about 35 minutes. I have a feeling things are gonna be getting interesting, cheers!

Hey all, I come across this forum and thought I would share my very first creation in ZB3. Actually, this would be my very first 3D Model made from from scratch ever! :D I have played around with Poser and Bryce a little but never really enjoyed using someone elses models and even though I have made some interesting things...it's just not the same. :cry: If I can't make it all from nothing then why bother; right? :D
Anyway, here it is, I hope you enjoy & thanks to ZBrush....I am excited to learn more!
Thanks! Comments are always welcome :tu:

Hi, this is my first sculpting whith ZBrush

This is my first attempt at sculpting. First model in Zbrush. First time using it. I have fallen in love with it!!!

[brazaman]

Never tried any 3D programs... ZBrush 3 was my first I learned some things and made this head just yesterday... Exceptional program, very intuitive and easy to use!!! Love at first sight... needs more pratice tought.

hmm I wonder if it'll let me post this time. lol. My first work was actually a 2.5d drawing just playing around. kind of a nature scene with trees, plants and rocks. zbrush 1.55 demo actually. Unfortunately I lost the image when my hd kicked the bucket. Oh well.

First model was done in 2.0. it was actually a skin I revamped for the now dead Sonique2.0 beta. all I did was make an alpha of the old skin and import/make3d. added a couple materials and voila. Still looking for an image of it. Will edit post when I find it. MTB(Mahlikus the Black) was actually one of the people that influenced me to get zbrush in the first place when I saw what wonderful skins he was making. I've stopped playing with zbrush and finally got serious about a year ago with making my own basemeshes. I've also been using zb3 so much that poser, vue, daz|studio, have dust growing on them. lol.

so until I find the sonique skin, here's my first Z3 work. Not too fancy. hair was done post in cs2. FaedrahCol.jpg

Well, I didn't know why the last time I post it didn't go through.
Anyway, I started this head from the original human DemoHead in Zbrush alone with 6 hrs of work.

[Sigmund Hentze]

I really think those six hours were well spent... happy ZBrushing!
