Hi again people,
This my final project for the last Master degree I did on CICE, is... Well I dont know what it is exactly but I toke some inspiration from dinosaurs, dragons, bulls and gorilas. I must say this project was so dificult at the begining in the designing phases with a lot of changes in the way until I finally chosee the final design. I am very glad of this project once it finished and I must say thanks to Victor Sanz Fernandez (http://igovictor.deviantart.com/gallery/) a wonderfull artist who did some concept art for me based on my original designs and ideas. Thank you!
I am planning on use this model on my reel once I have finished a couple of projects more. And almost for sure, it will get some updates with some props.

About the process I followed what is startin to be my main workflow. Main blobking in Zbrush along with modeling and final details, retopologize in TopoGun, Uv Layout from Zbrush and perfectioned on 3dsMax, Painted in Zbrush, material configuration on Max, and final render and lighting.

You can see an image from the highpoly and lowpoly comparission, the concept from Victor and a couple of turnarrounds.
Hope you like it!

Hello again everybody!
I finally finished sculpting this model wich was intended to be an anatomical study as realistic as posible, and in the meantime, I´ve learned a lot of anatomy for organic modeling purposes.
I´ve mede a quick skin paint/projection test as well.
And I am now working on the clothing/accesories for him trying to make him some kind of warrior.
I hope you like it!
As always, Critiques are more than welcome!

Really nice pieces, I must say. The warrior on your last upload; great anatomy. The only thing I would suggest is maybe toning down the brachials a little? Maybe not, it might just be my lack of anatomy knowledge. Looking it over, thats the only thing I could really nit-pick, even if you left them alone its still a stellar piece. Great armor design you've got going for him, can't wait to see the finished result.

Thank you very much haz3y!! I really apreciate your feedback!
While I could agree with you about the brachialis, I am kind of liking the look that it gives to the general sideview of the arm. So I think I´ll keep it that way for know!
It´s still a good apreciation, thanks!
