(Nudity Warning) Hello Zbrush, I'm Cherub rock, pleased to meet you

[cherub_rock]

Hehe, thank you so much!
I have it test-polypainted here, but wasn't able to get a good rendering result of it so I've rendered it with color but turned it to greyscale. I would very much like to render it realistically with color in Z, but my attemps till this date showed that I'd better stick with b/w

Cheers

his eyes aare perfect, very similar, good job

[cherub_rock]

Thank you AdrianP!

Some render experiments in Zbrush using lightcaps. A reminder about the Aragorn armor models culpted in Z retopoed in 3d coat and details in Z.

Hey all! I was very much inspired by the recent bodybuilder in top row, to do one myself. I find the subject great for anatomy study and am having a lot of fun. Here's the blocking stage. Very simple mesh in 3ds max for the body, and a polysphere for the head. To be continued.

Oh, that's cool. Gotta love Arnold right?

[cherub_rock]

Thanks Dragon! Yes!

Here's an updated LeChuck and a new render from keyshot. I've started on the retopology and sculpting anew.

What Storm said- Man, I am starting to see lots of folks using KeyShot (And it looks to be an amazing piece of software). Now, if only I could afford almost a GRAND for a Render Engine (or make enough off my art to Justify that amount of money or find a surgar moma-) Think I will stick with LightCap/BPR/PS (when I get ready to render-). Best, Dragon.

Very cool ! Love the angles and crisp quality .

Very nice render! What materiel were you using in KeyShot.. Can you share with me? (Yongkiatk@gmail.com)

[cherub_rock]

Thank you so much all! I'm really happy you like him. Keyshot is the only rendering software out there so far that makes me want to render, so I wish you all the best for accquiring the funds for it (even if you use it for something else hehe)

SolidSnakexxx, it's the standard material that comes with keyshot 3.1 Pro, and it's called Hard rough plastic - forest gre #1

Hey! i have always loved this character and i like a lot what you did with him...maybe just too much stress on the pants folds, id prefered a much stylised folds for both pants and arms...but thats just my taste...anyways i like it a lot.

Keep inspiring us so much

[cherub_rock]

Pescao, thank you very much for your kind words. About the folds, the reason I amde them as they are was to make a marriage between the stylized and real, hence I overdid them a bit

You make me wanna cry- Seriously, that KeyShot software looks AWSOME. Again, love the sculpt. Best, Dragon.
