So I did this monday evening. This is Princess Xanee. She is still W.I.P. I want to add some jewelry and maybe some paint on the face. We'll see.. C&C!

is that by any chance inspired by Jeff Unay's work here:

Hey man,

I love your Borahg model...great work!

I wanted to know if you used standard zbrush mats on that armor

[kskovbo]

Max: Thanks buddy! I watched your reel. Turned out great!! We need to hang before your off man.

Thenewpainter: Yeah, Jeff Unay's work is a big inspiration for me. Not only on that piece.

Alex Fox: Thanks, great to hear you liked it. But yes, everything done with standard matcaps from zbrush. I usually work with them as I do MR. That means I create a base metal layer, then put a shiny chrome on top as a overlay with around 50% opacity and then I'll repeat that with a colored version on top again and erase out parts where I want they metal to show underneath. I hope that makes sense. Otherwise check out Vitaly Bulgarovs tutorials HERE

hey klaus. sorry i didn't reply earlier. my english is not that good as i can explain well what i mean with lips need to be tweaked. as i saw the art of jeff unay i saw where you got that style of the lips from. i would go for a more realistic style, that was what i meant with tweak the lips.


i've got to say i like the borahg sculpt a lot.maybe the teeth could be a bit bigger, imo. greets,al.

@Al.Tintop - Okay, I get what you mean now. I was going for like an african woman lips. But I want to work more on her, so I'll try your suggestion for sure. Thanks for the comment though.

A quick speedsculpt wednesday evening. Painted over in PS.

[kskovbo]

Hey guys, been a while since I posted something. But now I just finished my year at Vancouver Film School, and this is what I produced.

The reel was created from idea to concept, 3d modeling, sculpting, texturing, lighting, and compositing. Everything is created by myself, excluding sound.

I modeled in maya, textured in bodypaint/zbrush, zbrush for sculpting, lighting in maya, and compositing in nuke and AE.

Borahg looks cool. i watched your demo. That vegetation must of taken forever to make. exellent work

[Capital_G]

Very nice! its an interesting change to the usual modeling reels out there

[kskovbo]

Thanks guys. The vegetation took around 1.5 month from modeling to finished texturing.

Here is a couple of wire frames:
