Thor'axyl , THE CYLOPS - added zscript

Thor’axyl was the first cyclops to give up his club in return for a peacefull life. But he was also the last , when all the rest kept on battering each other to death , he enjoyed resting in his nice little place.

I enjoyed making this one. I noticed I forgot the give him nails , but I’ll add em later on.

Any comments are appreciated.

Thanks ,
The Namek.

very kewl cyclops…only suggestion would be to have him grasping the club…other than that and the fingernails you mentioned I really like this :cool: :cool: :cool:

Too funny! Some nails, and yep, the club. Like Ron says :wink: Still, a good image with plenty of humor.

yeah , I should have modeled one hand so he could grasp the club , but I skinned the zsphere’s and modeled the detail , after a while I wanted to change it a bit but I wa stuck with the symmetry sincs I already skinned and detailed it.

This has a lot to look at. He is from an age when the upper body and arms were adapted to swing that club. He was suffering from a fungus under his nails which have caused them to drop out. That is why he was not around to do battle with the others. Now you have your excuse for the lack of nails :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :+1: :+1: :+1:

now why didnt I think of that :stuck_out_tongue:
Here’s an image of the model :

A cyclops hmmn!?! What are the chances… I am glad you decided to use my cyclops head… but you could have given me credit where it is due! Seems you must have forgotten whose Zscript you got this from!Great job on the body modeling and image!

Note: If you indeed modeled this yourself after perusing my script… you did a great job… If not I still will have no ill feelings, for I feel that imitation is the highest form of flattery! Thanks! LOL

I like the idea of the open hands. He is, after all, surrendering the club. Can’t take it away from him if he is grasping it. Great work on the loin cloth and fur boots. I also like the stream and the blue eye. And is that the skull of an old victim around his neck? Nice touch. I think some brighter lights for the landscape would help quite a bit.

I’m sorry PusGhetty , but I havent used your cyclops head and I didnt know about the script either. It’s just modeling a head like any other head only with one eye.

The thing I did forget to mention was that I used a tool for the skull. I downloaded it somewhere a long time ago I guess , can’t remember where , anyway credits for the skull to the maker of it :stuck_out_tongue:

I wouldn’t want to take him on even if he did give me his club! No, I’m sure he’s a nice guy really, very soulful eyes - sorry, eye. :+1: :smiley: :+1:

Interesting, My mistake. It just seems we are modeling on the same wavelength! I’ve never seen a cyclops model with ears and its mouth open anywhere else on the net… just seems peculiar. I always model my heads with their mouth open in case I want to add morph targets later on. I think perhaps you had been inspired by my work… Or maybe just tweaked my model into your own liking. Great minds think alike! huh!? I personally would like to see a script of your modeling techniques… is that possible? Since it is just a head with one eye, this should pose no problem!

I’ve never made a zscript before , but it shouldnt be to hard I guess , I’ll look into it and if it works I’ll post it. Are there things you have to avoid while making a zscript ? because I heard some scripts get messed up sometimes.

EDIT : I made a real quick one , because I gotta go buy some food :slight_smile:
Anyway I hope it works , Still have to figure out how to insert popup notes , it seems kinda fun to make zscripts.

for PusGhetty.txt

and 1 other thing , does anyone know how to upload images and files with Opera (program like IE) because it doesnt seem to work here , I always have to use IE to upload something.

:slight_smile: :slight_smile: Namek - thanks for the mini-tut. You’ve obviously got your very own modelling style. :} Jim

The Namek,
Well, Seems I owe you a huge apology! I’m really sorry!!
Your modeling reminds me too much of my own!!! I feel like an idiot! Please forgive me! As a matter of fact you and I have such similar modeling that I was wondering if you would be interested in doing some sort of collaberative project!? If not I totally understand… you probably think I’m a huge jerk right about now!
Sincerely,
Michael
p.s. Your work is very well done in all aspects!

I’m not really sure what you mean with a collab in Zbrush :stuck_out_tongue: , I always have problems with colabs because i’m not able to transfer files that have large sizes because of my 56k connection :frowning:
And no I dont think you are a jerk :stuck_out_tongue: , after you pointed out your thread , I can understand you thought I ripped off your Cyclops head.
greets ,
Kevin

Kevin,
Whew… I’m glad you are forgiving! ;~)
PM on its way!
