Final Render in Maya with Mental Ray.

This is a quick comp I had played with before finalizing my sculpt. Needed a bit of work with polypaint and fibermesh at this point.

Hereā€™s the final comp of Mr. Cuddles. Took quite a while to get the hang of the fibermesh settings and doing my first comp from Zbrush to Photoshop. Love the workflow, Iā€™m sure next time wont take so long! :smiley:

C&C are always welcome.

Hello all, this is a piece I recently finished. I call him ā€œThe Brainā€.

Sculpted with dynamesh and eventually remeshed to use Subdiv levels. I used a base mesh Iā€™ve had for some time for the brain, canā€™t recall the artist that created it :confused:. If you recognize the brain model please reply with a name so I can give the credit where due.

C&C welcome as always!

Glad to see youā€™ve finally started a thread on zbc, canā€™t wait to see what you turn out next :+1:

Thanks, Iā€™m glad to finally be here. Now itā€™s just time to keep working on improvement.:wink:

This is a quick display of an eye tool Iā€™m working on in Zbrush. Made the Eye in Maya and applied UVā€™s. Then exported to Zbrush and applied the textures from an eye creation PSD I made from various images and such off of google and other sites that I could blend together. The eyes are 100% rendered in Zbrush BPR and untouched in Photoshop.

**C&C Welcome as always ** Thanks in advance :smiley:

Nice work. I would love to see your render settings and materials. Keep it up!

Wow! Those eyes are fantastic. Would love to see a making of.

sexyy eyes :slight_smile: i too want to see a tutorial!!

Thank you all!!! Iā€™m glad you like them. Itā€™s still a work in progress as I want to tweak a few things, BUT I will make sure to put together a tutorial or making of for you!

Hey Everyone, I appreciate your support!!! Hereā€™s the making of workflow for the final eye. Please let me know if you have any questions and Iā€™ll do my best to help out, my email is Dvalk3D@gmail.com :smiley:

I used the same veiny texture for the Scerla to so that the color bump settings would show betterā€¦

Sorry for such a big size, just wanted to make sure the images and text wouldnā€™t be hard to see.

Share and enjoy! :smiley:

This is another render I did using a blue color for the Iris :wink:

Thank you for this. I know how much work goes into creating a mini tutorial like this. I think you have done a wonderful job. Great results. Nice, clean directions and grabs of all of the settings. I will steer my students to this thread for sure.

Cheers

Very NIce eye texture. Was it found on google, or was it made by you??

I made a PSD from a bunch of pictures from both google and stock Images Iā€™ve purchased. Not sure which ones those are now to be honest, I have so many. I cut
the Iris out of all of the photos and had a separate Scerla color, so chances are itā€™s a mix. Iā€™m sure there are plenty on google!

Wow this is so generous of you.

Canā€™t wait to give it a go.

Iā€™ll post my results.

Thanks so much.

Thanks a lot for your eye tutorial. Iā€™ll surely dig into it soon :slight_smile:
