hey all,been bit busy so updates have been really slow,..sabrewulf characters are a little further,..i'll post up as and when i get em nearer completion.

after nosing through an awesome thread on game artisans started up by crazyfool, i felt the urge to have a play with zsketch,....such a cool quick way of getting a character blocked out with plenty of evenly spaced polys .

http://www.gameartisans.org/forums/s...ad.php?t=18503

the head was a lunchtime 1hr bust from a sphere,..the zsketch > blocked out sculpt took about 2hrs,..gonna use this way for characters in future.

little more progress

[free-willy-PB]

hi all,
been working on my entry for the brawl comp on polycount, heres my latest progress. Decided to redesign lizardman from soul caliber,...the idea being to make him more agressive looking than how he looks in the game.

Hi all,

Finally got round to updating some work, Bloater is at a stage im happy with as a sculpt, i might at some point turn him into a game rez version.
Drooler got turned into a game rez mesh 6541 tri's (without the base water,lily pads and dragonfly) 1 x (1024 x 1024) colour,normal,spec texture maps

thanks for looking

[VISEone]

Awesome character design - can't wait to see more of your creatures!

[Dragon]

Ah man, how did I miss this thread? I totally love the style of this DROOLER and BLOATER. Super AWSOME (and thanks for the tute on the final render on them). I really dig this style very much. Best.

[KC-Production]

I can just concur, great character design and really digging your style
Looking forward seeing more from you!
All the best and happy sculpting,
- Kenny

VISEone: thanks , cant take credit for the design, they're concepts from a RARE game called Sabrewulf.

Dragon: thanks , yeah they are pretty cool concepts, i originally wanted to do more of the characters, but i need some variation in the portfolio.

KC-Production: thanks 'again' glad you like.


another piccy recently done. Its the lion mascot for a charity raising awareness for Cystic Fibrosis.
lucky timing with the new fibremesh brush since i used it for the lion main ,render passes comped in photoshop.
