Flash-Buster - first Z-Portrait

Here’s my first ZBrush Portrait. I’ve painted hundreds of portraits in my art career, but this is a first for me… sculpting in “digital clay”

I’ve been doing a study of Buster. Hopefully, it will result in a full figure in action pose as Flash Gordon.

Thanks to all the great ZBrushers posting on this site You are a constant source of inspiration. :smiley: Flash-bust-of-buster-bronze.jpg

I’ve been working on Buster as I’ve been learning ZBrush. Still got a lot further to go on this one. My ZBrush hi-res model has fairly nice hair detail, but I must not have done a good job getting the displacement maps out of ZBrush correctly.

This is a Carrara render with SSS on the head. The collar and Buster started out in Silo as base meshes.

more to come later

While I’m awaitng the Mac Z3 update, I’m continuing to work on my Flash Gordon sculpt. There is still so much to learn in Z2, I’ll be able to keep my self busy with projects, till the upgrade shows up.

I’m slowly but surely working on a modeling reel ffor distribution at Siggraph this year. Buster/Flash will be one of the turntables. so will my CGTalk Harryhausen sculpt of Kali. I’ve one more figure TBD.

More to come.
