Sinister hands

This project has been made while taking Jared Krichevsky’s Creature modeling and sculpting class at Gnomon School of VFX in Los Angeles. Every week, Jared was providing us a theme to work on for the following week. This time around the theme he had picked was Abomination and since the class is mainly about concepting I decided to create something that would be as beautiful and deranging which is a contrast i’m interested in. The Hands are creating this harmonious shape of a dancer following in a sense the muscle and tissue flow. The torrent above it, is in a way pulling back the harmony. For this concept piece, I utilized 3Dscanstore scanned arm, duplicating it and modeling multiples iteration manually placing them (took forever, yes) over on a sculpt of a dancer I did previously trying to follow the harmony of lines. I mainly used Zbrush in which I also used Arraymesh to create the torrent of hands. Many many thanks to Jared Krichevsky (https://www.artstation.com/jaredkrichevsky) for his amazing lectures, tricks and technics. I can’t recommend him enough. I also want to thank Tran Ma and Miguel Ortega for being a pair of amazing artist, above and beyond instructors. Merci !

Thank you Melissa ! Im glad you liked it :black_heart:

Awesome concept! Must have been such a challenge to pull off!

Thanks a lot ! Adding every arms manually following some sort of logic took a lot of time but thank god you guys invented Arraymesh features! otherwise it would have take me another couple of month to create the “torrent” above the figure. Haha
I really appreciate the support from pixologic ! Being on the front page mean a big deal to me.
Best,
