Homo Erectus Head

I’m kind of an evolution buff. I got a good profile pic of an erectus skull and looked at a lot of chimp pics. I want to paint it in ZB, which I have never done so I am kind of dreading the process. I wanted to give the eys a shine, but couldn’t figure out how to assign a different material to them than the skin. Anyone know how to do that? All C and C’s are very appreciated.

Very nice modeling! You have a good eye for anatomy, specialy a character like this that has chimp and human characterisctics.
For the the coloring, what you can do is start with a color texture that you think it would be perfect for the base color. When you have that base color, you can go from there adding different types of skin colors, textures or patterns. Projection Master will help a lot with this process. Also the Zapp which is great for taking your color map to photoshop, edit it, and then bringing it back to Zbrush.

Ok have a nice day!
