And to let those of us who have no cleverbridge email yet in on the fun!

[gpepper]

Good idea !

[jarrett towe]

It's ok to post youtube videos in this thread!

I guess ill be the first to post an image here. Nothing special just learning how these newfangled zpheres work.

also played with the noise curve on the ground.

when i make a plane and then apply noise to that plane i cant deform the outer edges of that plane without creating a seam line. not that its a big deal just something i noted

[jaystein777]

Sweet, could you post some tips or mini tut somewhere?

[ahtiandr]

Really awesome idea))) I would really like to see some real human sketches)))

[Darukin]

Nice work Evan Gaugh!

I too agree with ahtiandr, wud like to see human sketches using ZSpheres 2 annd how those turn out! ZSpheres 2 look really amazing for concept and modeling and creatures / volumes / forms etc, but for human heads and faces... well let's say I'm curious

@jaystein777

check out the ZSpheres ZClassroom videos, they're like tuts on their own and will explain all the main things u need to know.

Thanks, I guess I'm too excited and haven't had enough caffeine to think clearly.

I already love ZSpheresII!



Seriously, for some purposes (like building maquettes for illustration) it might not even be necessary to convert the ZSpheres into a poly surface at all.

[Aberrant]

I too am "curious" to know not only how these will look with human figures but more on how well the forms hold from zspheres to an actual mesh. I have not seen any adaptive skins yet from the new z spheres and I am hoping that they translate well.

[GabeM]

The forms hold up as well as you want with the slider options.

The mesh it self isn't really what I would want for a final, a lot of poles show up. I'd do what I can with the Zsketch. Convert it to skin, sculpt on that a bit and retopologize for a nice topology.

The sketch spheres are very helpful though, a great improvement no doubt.


[edit]
Adaptive skin topology comes out much cleaner.

A copule of doodle (pretty addicted..)

[TheGreenMachine]

omg, the models look soo cool, like the fact there are faces made.

I can't wait to get 3.5

[sasquatchpoacher]

These are cool and all but how do you convert them to workable/usable meshes?
or do they always look like balloon animals?

[phat]

unified skin ... will make a mesh out of it ...

and then you can start sculpting on that mesh .... you keep it as a baloon or whatever you like .
