way cool! I'll have to check out layers for morph target animation in zbrush! :) awesome sculpt! (he does look very nice and friendly though... a friendly deamon! ;))

[Webhead]

...I think I see a little Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs.

Ha-ha! I was thinking Anthony Hopkins myself.

[Santis]

d100763: Thanks!

GrizzlyJake: Thanks a lot!
Haha yeah, I've heard that before, and when I think about he actually is pretty darn similar. Wasn't intentional though!

Patackular: Thank you! So glad you find it inspiring!

SpiritDreamer: Thank you Glenn! I'm as satisfied as the demon myself

nim: Tack! Gör så, det är simpelt men kraftfullt!

Webhead: Haha, yeah... I guess he is

[Santis]

So I finally got really comfortable using dynamesh
I created a full body character from my imagination, from a sphere



I also created a more accurate skull for the lion
Also with dynamesh:


Its' coming alive!



C+C is always very welcome

[RawSunlight]

Great character to mr fugly's face!
The expressions of your horned guy are sublime, and your skeleton is awesome!
Nice work, man

[Santis]

Thanks a lot, really glad you like it
So, as a long time fan of the series, and with the new game being released just a couple of days ago couldn't resist sculpting some kind of tribute. I don't have time to play the actual game... but I had time for a DynaMesh doodle, from a sphere, of Diablo himself



Keep in mind that it's all dynamesh from a sphere and not a very polished piece

[Santis]

A friend of mine was interested in getting a chest piece of diablo, so will take it further to see if he likes the design and look



C+C is appreciated

[Ryzzhan]

i think you did a really good job on this ? i'm going to play some more diablo 3 now haha

[Santis]

Thanks! Haha, sounds great

[Santis]

Not much time to work lately, but here's a little update on the last guy



Not to myself: Have a lowres subdivision level to UV and pose...

[Stefanos_Petras]

Looks great! As for the lower subdiv thing, I have found a way if you work with Dynamesh to make it to subdivisions.No zspheres and retopology. And it's very quick. I'll make a tutorial and post it later. If you want, I can inform you when it's uploaded.

[Santis]

Thanks!
Yes, that would be great
I have tried to copy the mesh I'm working on, dynamesh it to a lower resolution and then project the details. But the geometry is too crude to hold up for example the fingers.

[KC-Production]

really fantastic improvement santis buddy, really great creature design, a creepy face but I like it big time!
