Hey Meatsi have to say that when i first saw you work i just could nto figure out how you did it, and was once again floored at what Z2 could produce in the hands of a skilled artist, kudos. I was curious as to when your training DVD's would be available for sale.

[Sebcesoir]

Amazing work! Could you post some screensshots or video about the way you work to create such relief?

[chadtheartist]

I like the one with the faces in the eye sockets best. Very cool stuff there Meats! Always a pleasure to see your work.

Thanks everyone!

Obiewan - The first batch of Zbrush DVDs will be out sometime in December, I'm not sure when exactly, although....

Steevo - That's right, I have the Zbrush one week course coming up soon...nice to hear that you will be in the class - should be good!

I've included a few of the models that make up these heads that I am mixing and matching to produce different images:

Base head (geometry that the rest where produced from)

wow Meats, these last ones put me in the way back machine!!! They remind of doing sculptures with wire, wire hangers and some fun stuff called Liquid Solder. It makes me wanna run out and try to find some now!!

but it's cold out there so I think I'll let zb be my liquid solder.

I have a question for you meats. How much of the masks are alpha? What I mean is what are the percentages of custom alpha to hand painting mask. I am assuming it is a little of both?
Other questions if you don't mind.

To PM or not ti PM?...hehe.
Percent of furthing modeling as mesh and/or to pixol? I am assuming Pixol due to speed.

Oh yeah, one more. Are you using Hi res alphas/textures?

Thanks you for sharing this again. It comes at a perfect time when I have a project coming ahead on the geometry/abstract representation of the human form and condition. I hadn't the faintest idea were to start. Now a path is clear (too bad I have little time to play...mybe tonight). Thanks again.
