Managed to free up some time this weekend, so decided to enter the contest. Because I’ve waited till so late to start on my entry, just going to do a character instead of a full scene, and since I’m primarily a game artist, I plan on creating a lowpoly version and normal mapping it once the highpoly work is done. I’m not much for drawing polished concepts typically, so just did a quick ortho sketch before jumping into zbrush. Basic idea is a pumpkin man/scarecrow carving his own face.

And after 3 or 4 hours in zbrush:

So far its mostly done in zbrush, based off a base human mesh I had for the body and a sphere for the pumpkin. The initial vines and the shirt were laid out in topogun on top of the body sketch since I wasnt quite able to get them how I wanted just with zbrush. And now, back to work…
