Dominance War 3 unfinished

[wdcstudios]

I started this as an entry into the Dominance War 3 contest but I wasn't able to finish in time. So now it has become a project for me to get to know zbrush better, I never had a 100% nailed down concept so I'm just winging it and trying out brushes and techniques.

I did some poly painting and brought the model back into max to do a test render just to see what things would like.

Here are some renders with the helmet and stylized facial hair. I think I may rigg this guy and pose him but I won't spend much time on him after that. This was a good learning procces but I'm a little tire of looking at him. Also I think I may need to buy a tablet I found trying to draw with the mouse pretty painful.

you got it right see this one as an learning piece! for a sculpt without a tablett it isnt even that bad you should definitly get urself a tablett as it is the only way zbrush works. having none is like sculpting with your feet in real life and probably worse !!!!:lol:

Thanks so much for the comment. I've been eying the Intuos3 9x12 I'd like to get Cintiq but it's too pricey right now.
