Julien Nicolas Sketchbook

Hi everybody, after watching all the amazing stuff from some years ago, i finally decided to follow the tendance, and create my own post to show you my zbrush works.
It’s only personnal jobs i’m doing in my spare time.
I’m curently learning zbrush, every critics/help/tips will be very welcome.
Actually I don’t know how to save a render on Zbrush or how to correct the AntiAliasing, so i use screenshot…

OK let’s start with my last model, a Vick Mackey (Michael Chiklis) caricature from the TV serie “The Shield” did for the 3dtotal speed sculpt challenge. 5Hours

export it as a psd. make the resolution higher first if you want all the detail then scale it down when your in photoshop.

Awesome bust!

Thank you for the help Captkiro, now i understand how it works.

And thank you Bluespot for the kind words.

haha… coool. i like the version with the distorted glasses. it fits better with the style of the head. something feels off with the third image. the semetry of the shades dont match the character like the one before it.

wait, ok… now i see that the whole thing has become semetrical. im not sure i understand the post. but the charicature is top notch definately. if youre new to zbrush, youre comming out swinging.

Hey Many thanks mjolnir.
Yes the last image, was the original before unsymmetrical work.

Here is another caricature i did on zbrush and 3dsmax/photoshop for the hair.

Hey, nice job on Lee. I would be great to see a full body.I would add more detail in the color map. Add some highs and lows in the face.

Marvel_Modeler your critic are completely right thank you! i take a break on this model to work on some others projects, but later i’ll do this change. :wink:

Here is a new character i’m creating, more to come probably next week…
it’s a full body character, i colored it just for the render, no details for the moment, well it’s just a wip.
