    Default The Hawk's Nest (Nufftalon 3D Studio Sketchbook)

    I have decided to start a sketchbook on zbrush I'm becoming more comfortable with zbrush and I am planning on doing alot of sculpts in it. I am excited to start this. I will be making alot of head sculpts only and then once I perfect that move on to torso, arms, hands, legs, and feet. I will then start doing full character sculpts and then posing via zsphere rigging. I hope to break the symmetry meet some friends and get some good feedback. I enjoy and support zbrush central to the fullest!

    So here is my first sculpt about 20-30 minutes

    go back some subdivision levels and block out the right shapes and use references
    just google for some images and try to sculpt the silhouette on a low subdivision level
    keep going!

    Thanks for the tip.. I will try to work on that I have a bad habit of jumping sub levels early on I have gotten better at it but not quite there yet. I will try to keep doing a sculpt a day and use more references.

    Ok so here is what I have so far I mean its not the best not remotely close to Rafael Ghencev's version but it is my best work yet as far as heads goes. I have alot more to learn and alot of techniques to try. I'm a bit nervous about doing the eyes but I will research that and figure the best way to execute adding eyelids and appending the spheres for eyes. Let me know how it looks. All in all I am understanding zbrush alot better now I have built this mostly using clay buildup brush I like it because it doesn't feel as harsh as clay tubes but of course changing alphas helps that again still learning. First ear I have ever done too.

    A small revision. I'm feeling at this point that I need to take a step back to take a step forward. I have some cloudy areas about what shows up on the surface and what doesn't I understand the underlying structure a bit better now maybe some facial l'ecorche will do me good.
