Gorgon

[mattybyng]

This is my new WIP. He will be a gorgon:
Greek Mythology. Any of the three sisters Stheno, Euryale, and the mortal Medusa who had snakes for hair and eyes that if looked into turned the beholder into stone.

Now, I am aware that a gorgon must be female; so being aware of that I want to make the character male. I don't see a problem with it.

Anyway, the character will have snakes for hair, like Medusa...

hey matty,

check out zbrushes fog ....it has some cool things in its submenu in rendering like the ability to add a texture or two to accentuate depth and or add masking too.

those effects in the eyes could be done in zbrush too by exploring some brushes..

no need to leave zbrush! well maybe but the more I explore it the more I find myself not leaving it for texturing etc.

Hey Aminuts, you were right. The effects of Zbrush can do just as well as Photoshop. All you need to do is experiment a little. Well here is the Zbrush effects...

I thought I'd show you lot the actual textures of the gorgon's head and the progression of the snake.
