Santis Sketchbook 2012

[sadicus]

I like the sea creatures!
Thanks for the zTOOL!

[Santis]

Kenny: Thanks!
Yeah, that sounds healthy, but if you ever need a skull quickly you know where to find it

coreyschroeder: Thanks a lot
Yes, it's absolutely a simplified plane, I wanted to keep it clean, but yes, you are right, it's not 100% realistic, more stylistic. Thanks for your comment

sadicus: Thanks You are welcome!

Okay, so I also now have added a obj-file to the zip, it's just a merged and decimated version of the ztl. It's only 170K instead of 2,1 million polygons

Fantastic Skull Santis! I love that it realistic with a nice touch of style, great work!

Thanks for charing... but is there any other way to download it rather than sharecg?
Would be nice.

[Santis]

daxton: Thanks man

sleepyhead: Nope, I'm sorry. It's a big file, and it's a free site, so it felt appropriate

Hi!
Two new speed busts, the first one made yesterday, and the second one today. About 1-2 hours spent on each.

[Santis]

Thanks a lot Glenn, hope you make some good use of it

So, here's yet another speed bust from tonight:



I have also started getting more serious with animal anatomy, here's my first study, the basic structure of a lion skeleton
Will turn in to a complete animal eventually!

[pabgo]

i shall await your progress on thee lion

[womball]

I love the animal study so far. Its great with the 3 different sculpting techniques. The zspheres on the spine are great, and you got the major forms hinted in the face and chest area. Proportions looks good too.

[Santis]

pabgo: And more shall come!

Womball: Thanks a lot! Really glad you like it

[Patackular]

Your artwork makes me very happy. What inspires you?

[Santis]

Patackular: Thanks a lot, that made my day!
I find inspiration in so many things in life. Obviously in other artists like, Neville Page, Jordu Schell, Gerald scarfe among many others.
Music is also vital to me, it ranges from "Death" to "Pink floyd", it depends on what mood I'm in. But I guess I'm most of the time in a more or less cynical/bitter mood...

Here's a demon I made a couple of months ago, but haven't posted yet for some reason. I gave him a couple of layers to morph between different expressions and face fat, so I animated it in to a short Zbrush movie
