Jordy's zbrush student endeavors!

[Jordy_Knoop]

Yo!

@marrakech: Thanks for the feedback man! You are totally right, ill take it into account for the next one, or if i ever finish this off.

Today at school I had another try at sculpting a model from life. It was around 3 hours and a bit. Came out way better then last one because im getting more used to starting a model. Just have to go for the volumes way quicker than i usually do. Some areas are still really wonky like the legs and feet so hopefully next time im even faster and can get that stuff a bit better as well! I also recorded a timelapse for any of you who might be interested!

Been a while but i’m back! Had a bit of a burn-out due to game uni and just too much stuff going on in others courses that were not related to sculpting. But I’m feeling all refreshed and ready to pickup my sketchbook again. Most of my other non zbrush related courses are now over and I finally have the time to be sculpting most of the time. I’m currently specializing in character concepting and am using a lot of zbrush to do so. over the coming months i’ll be designing 3 characters from Steven Erikson’s Malazan Book of the Fallen series.

anyways here are 2 sketch pages i did beforehand!

I am now doing some concept sculpts in zbrush. here is the first one and i got 2 almost done which i will post shortly. Probably will paint over them in a Bryan Wynia inspired style.

Regards,

Jordy

Hi guys,

Did my very first Bryan Wynia inspired sketches. I love his approach (and his work) and it was really fun to do. Was doing some variations on my 2 head bust for anomander rake in photoshop. Also fun to paint again. Also a few hour blocking of the guy’s body. A bit wonky still here and there but it’s WIP want just keep posting more regularly so here ya go!

Love them all. I would go with the last from the top in the first image (flaming style hair) and from the second image I like the 3 from the second row. beard and horns! Very inspiring all of them! small_orange_diamondsmall_orange_diamondsmall_orange_diamondsmall_orange_diamondsmall_orange_diamond

Sup guys!

Bit of a random update today. First of is a 45 min doodle done in a multiple of 5 min sessions. I was at the open day of our game school and i was demoing some zbrush everytime some visitors walked by. 2nd is a 45 minute spitsculpt that is probably around an hour (shhh) heavily inspired by Leslie van den Broeck. Lastly some quick armor sketches and paintover for the armor I’m designing for Anomander Rake.

Enjoy.

So… more than 45min ey? ahah ;D
Very cool armor’s man
