I did the 1st pass of texturing on one sub tool, hand painted with poly paint. Did a test render with Zbrush***8217;s BPR. I used Photoshop for the Comp. I like where it***8217;s going, feedback is welcome as always.

Digging the texturing, try adding a bit more blue'ish hits to break up the red / pink, adding some irregular specular hits will also help break it up and give it that slimey look. idealy the guts would have a stronger and smaller spec highlight then the skin.

Did some texturing, all by hand with poly paint. I think I need to break up the texture some more or add more colors. ... something..... open for wisdom

: thanks, i will try that out. I haven't messed with the spec that much its just skin shader 4 in zbrush

AdrianP : thanks!
deckard01 : thanks a lot. I love your work man, I added some more spec in the turnaround still pretty new to rendering and somewhat to texturing.
Thanks for the input, I’m always looking for some feedback.
About xtrm3d: I see that you’re a technical artist at Naughty Dog. You have some nice sculpting skills, wouldn't have thought you were a technical artist, nice skills man. thanks for the compliment!
KC-Production: thanks man, still learning a lot, there a few parts on him that are hit or miss, I spent most of my time on the chest.

This is a WIP of the texture of the T-Rex I did a while back
