Sketchbook One & WIP_by sleepyhead

[sleepyhead]

Hi everyone and thanks for the great inspiration we find here!
I'm a little bit shy in front of the amazing talents here but...I'm here to learn and develop my skills so...let's make the final jump and create a sketchbook.

the first one is my really first attempt using Zbrush. Already posted here but I wanted to put that in one and unique post. Hope you won't mind...

1st Try on Zbrush / 1st day :

3rd day / Still a work in progress with some bugs...

[sleepyhead]

the new monster:
I mostly work on the back and arms of this one. Still have a lot to do to improve it... C&C are welcomed of course...















more stuff later.
Keep up the good work!

Is it that bad ?

a little update

[jtruthnick]

Impressive sculpts for your first foray into zbrush sleepyhead! wish my firsts were as good as yours....what's your background? you must have SOME sculpting experience...If not, my hat is off to you! The backs of the lumpy dude's arms look odd to me, but could be you're adding extra lumps cuz he's a lumpy dude? the triceps look rotated out from the back of the arm a bit much, doesn't align with the elbow properly, but as I said, he's a lumpy dude. Good stuff man/lady whatever the case may be!

Thanks Jtruthnick!
No special background in sculpting... I just wanted to try Zbrush so I jumped into it. I'm still a newbee so... still lots to learn and mistakes to correct...

As for my background, I am a graphic designer and used to draw a lot.
And this forum is a really good help with tons a very talented artists. So I try and learn and do my best to improve my sculpts...

Will try and fix and finish this guy and post some new WIP as soon as I can :-)

thats some really nice anatomy. looking forward to seeing some more

[0bz]

I really like the contortions you apply to the anatomy. Very creative without sacrificing identifiable forms of anatomy. Super cool

[KPtoons]

Amazing work! I love your treatment of anatomy.

KPtoons > thank you
Obz > Thanks
LeoAMD > thanks too. Will try and post more often and correct some bugs.

Another try. Still very WIP too. Started from a Zsphere. Worked few hours on it.
C&C welcome, of course.
