SSTRiKERR's Sketchbook

[SSTRiKERR]

Hello, I need to start posting on this amazing site. So i made a sketchbook!
enjoy

So right now i have some 40-60 min sketches. fun to do for warm ups



And im starting this silhouette practice thingy, just coming up with silhouettes and making sculpts from them. They are really fun. I'm trying to stay in 40-60 mins tho.

Ow I love that idea of sculpting from a silhouette ! Very nice sculpts indeed.

[Julian_K]

good results too

[SSTRiKERR]

Welcome to ZBC.
Great work... lots of character in your pieces!

[SSTRiKERR]

RawSunlight - thanks for the warm welcome buddy AND im glad you like them.

Alright so i dove in some realistic head study and this took more time then the speedies......i mean it is a STUDY i guess so check it out CRITS are VERY welcomed

[SSTRiKERR]

Did another sculpt today........ yea, dont know what went wrong but, i ended up with an overweight Hitler that ever happen to you? enjoy

[SSTRiKERR]

im going to do a more serious sculpt so i did some concepts and a background story, check it

This being was forced against his will to be the guardian of the most sacred door. He protects the most precious gap, " the Door of Answers". Answers to love, curses, cures, fortune and salvation reside within it. Though, lives on earth would be no lesson if humans were to have access to this piece of heaven.

The bad spirit that robbed him of his vision and bound him to this sanctuary forces him to do the unforgivable, slaying anyone that dares get passed him to the Door of Answers. Any one that wanted to pass through would have find the impossible speed and strength to defeat him. He lives off sound and vibrations alone, as the victims or animals that trail by his domain are slayed and eaten as his meal for his survival. If he is taken lightly, you will see a formidable foe.





did some variation, not to big but some. tell me what you guys think or suggestions on combining some. after that ill paint the final decision

[goast666]

combo of 1 and 3 would rock.
the thicker gloves help to push the upperbody weight, which is already a rather large focus of the image (small legs n all).
The straps around the feet well...just cause it looks cooler than peter pan shoes :P

Can't tell you how many times. Every time I etch a sketch. There he is, staring out at me with those fat, mocking eyes.

5 stars on this thread, btw.

[oofnish]

awesome models, and looks like a terrific exercise -- what's the workflow you use to go from a silhouette to a ztl?

[SSTRiKERR]

goast666 - thanks for the suggestions man, but im going to choose another concept. I needed a more BOSS feel. im still going to make that character too

EricShawn - hahahaha i know right! tell me about it. wow thanks a lot! <33

oofnish - thanks! i sketched up quick silhouettes in alchemy then went to zbrush for the sculpting lol thats pretty much it.

been a while since i updated, i started a new boss and have little time!. ill show what i have so far. STILL LOTS TO DO!

[GX@W]

nice creature but for a boss, this does looks not very intimidating. Though who says all bosses needs to be bulky?

[SSTRiKERR]

EXACTLY! lol

[SSTRiKERR]

hey, im back with a pose! i wanted to get this done asap. i made a pedestal too. Its a hill hes walking up. still stuff to DO!

And plz does anybody know how to do the depth technique in zbrush???

note to self : veins, depth tech., make dirt build up at his feet.
enjoy!
