Hi Folks!!!

Wow, I got the Top row, I didn’t expect that I got, which is great hounor to me.
and your comment was absolutely hounor, I would like to say “thank you for every one” who gave me a comment and star.

this Top row has lots of meaning to me. it hard to tell about the story but it’s like you say " I’m going to right way during past." so, I’m very happy what I got .

I will try to make reply every single comment. so don’t hesitate to ask me
( but can’t answer about deep question regarding company tech, hope you understand )

and again thank you so much everyone

PS. my website got very low limit for streaming ( 500m for a day )
so it’s down 3times already since I post it in zbrush central. I’m working on back to normal. so if you can’t visit my site, plz come back later. :slight_smile:


Teyon : I didn’t do the concept art for this character but he’s wearing kinna togo which made by stone. because he can use the magic spell :slight_smile:

atin22 : thanks you so much!

jaganar : yeap you’re right, he is the magical creature during the combat. he’s crystal make hime stronger. I’m glad that people like what I made thanks!

Beneto : wow thanks, it’s honoured comment, someone decide to play the game because of my art work. thank you so much to do it and hope you like it! I will work hard for next.

alphagsv : thank you so much, thank you!

OctoBoom : thanks! hope that you got great thing from it.

nero5150 : usually less than month, can’t tell more deeply

DBriggs : I’m glad that I got lots of question from passionable people. shale is very complex creature from first version of concept, as a creture modeler should redesign it for 3D. I had lot of meeting with animator and rigger ( animation limit, attack animation, magic animation etc ) all of the animation should work without problem so you need to do those job for them.
and the high dragon got more poly limit than any others but the number is depend on the engine, so lots of conversation with enginner as well. as you see the modeler is not just making model who should have lots of responsiblity what you made. hope that you got right answer.

Griever : wow it’s honour that you got inspiration from my work.

adio38 : I didn’t do the trailer which made by blur as I believe ( might wrong ), I love the High Dragon trailer even if it’s got a slighty differnet concept. Luv it! thanks for the comment! I will try to keep up better work!

TheHAwk4 : thank for the comment, wish that you’ll have great time with game. not much of company do the creature but I love this job. Unfutunatly, there is no shortcut and answer only thing you can trust is yourself. no one know much about you, so ask youself if your mind say “not enough”, shouldn’t stop to practice, that why I’m still practice zbrush.

mjolnir : thank like my work. wish that you’ll have fun time with.

wayniac : thanks for the comment, I was working on him with Zbrush 3.1, I don’t have great brush like 3.5, if I had it it will be great for time save, only thing I can say zbrush flat brush was great tool for him. and the render in 3Dmax. sorry can’t tell more in detail.

real nice work on the dragon, good looking details and scales… keep em comming.

Just…amazing… Thank you for taking time posting these.

Incredible stuff man and what a shame that the game engine/game assets dont do your work justice. I bet you could have even spent 1/3rd the time detailing this work to bring it to the level of detail that the game actually is able to show. Next gen, DA isnt.

Fantastic work! I actually started playing the game a few days ago and kinda hooked hehe.

I’m currently working on a bunch of games models, but am not sure whats the best way to create games characters. For these models do you make a base mesh for zbrush, then sculpt it in Zbrush, then import it back to max/maya and make the game mesh and then bake out the maps from there? If so, do you have to optimize the sculpts mesh so it doesnt crash max/maya. Or do you do it a different way?

beautifull design and skill… you got a lot of imagination! Congratulations for the top row!

Excelent job! Inspiring work! Makes me wanna become a monster!!! :smiley:
