Hi all,

Just wanted to share a work in progress with the ZBrush 1.5

The Z A N E S H A model is primarily made of body parts created with ZSpheres. The head was modelled from a high resolution sphere and the arms from an old ZSphere model that I had saved in ZSphere mode (a useful tip for all Z artists, keep your ZPhere models as well as the finished meshes)

I used only four layers in this image, the body on one, metal/rings/snakes on the next, the back drop shape on the third and a 3D plane on another in the far background. Fog has been applied but only to hide the distance. The document size was 2000x2000 (small for me). I took the test render and changed it to 200 ppi giving me a print size of 10 inches x 10 inches which turned out quite well at output.

The base render was done with only two lights, both suns, with GI Shadows and high ray counts and a low apature size in best render.

The colour version is a COLOR-TEST only and a lot of the post work was done in Photoshop. I am going to go back and spend time on the image to complete it in ZBrush now I have a good idea of colour preference.

Best regards,

Glen

hi Glen.

my favourites are test renders top left and bottom right.

The composition is great, and the detail immaculate :) See, you DO have the motivation to engage in "grandscale" projects.

Very Nice! I really like the bottom right one. Not sure how you lit it up like that, but it looks excellent! :tu:

really great work , Glen , the only thing I have found for criticism is :
- you seem to have blurred out the transition of the 3 arms on the left in the grayscale image , but in the colored version the transition is still visible.
