Here is my very first 3D model. It is still a WIP. I hope you like it, and any thoughts on it would help. I have been watching the forum for a while now, and finally got some time to do some modeling in ZBrush. The work that I have seen on here are simply amazing, and one day I hope to join the ranks of all you great ZBrushers!

I did a little work on the head today, I have a long way to go. Here is the head before and after a little work. I look forward to your comments.
By the way I got rid of the ugly teeth!

Had a couple of hours to work on the head again tonight. I add some more details to the face and horns. Added more nostrils and cleaned out the mouth for a different look.
Wow great 1st model!!! You’ll be a pro soon!!!
Thanks Jotajota, and remcv8! I will keep working on it until I am satisfied!
I spent a couple of more hours refining the head. It is coming along nicely I think. I still need to work on the teeth, I’m still not satisfied with them.

I detailed the head, now I am lost on what I should do with the body. It is still the sameway as in the first pic. I think I should smooth the body out and start from scratch. Any help that I could get would be appreciated!
Here is where I am at now.
Here is an update. It has been a while since I updated this WIP. I have added a skin texture, and started painting it in projection master. How do I keep the colors and material I added in projection master?
121 welcome.

I am also having problems when I try to paint with different types of alphas in projection master. Everytime I try to paint with the scattered dot it doesn’t see them as dots when I pick it up. It looks like very bad pixelation. I deleted the body and decided to work on the head until I get better at Zbrush. My model is 1,675,782 polygons now. Can anyone help me?

Man…
You don’t get any love on here if you are new!
good
Hey Furron,
That’s funny what you say about being noticed when new. I felt the same thing on my first post. I think it has to do with the level of creativity on this forum. So many people post work that is simply amazing, and some of the regular stuff get unrecognized becase of it.
I think your model is great, and has a lot of potential.
But, if I were you I would forget the rest of the body and go onto something new. Sometimes it is so tough to let go of a model after so much effort, but it is better to let go and get comfortable with Zbrush in the earlier stages. I found that I continued to replicate troublesome technical areas in my modeling when I got caught up in all of the other sexier features Zbrush offered. It seems better to do around ten models, hopefully excedeeding yourself in design and feel, before trying the texturing and colors. Otherwise you get so far into a model that when you attempt another you feel jaded.
Just my 2 cents. I’m in the same boat with you.
As for your PM issue, I’m, not sure what the problem is. The only thing I could think of is that you set a low resolution when you defined the texture.
Best of luck on your z2 exprience.

Tobe,
Thanks for your kind words.
Cedell,
Thank you, and I agree with you it is hard to let go of the first. I have started some other projects, and I will get to know Zbrush (amazing program). I thought I knew it well enough, but now I realize how deep zbrush really is. Thank you again, and happy Zbrushing!
Furron
I’ll give you some kinds words…Great job!
You have inspired me work Harder!
Thanks MJR000,
for the kind words. I must work harder also, I am still new at zbrush also. I am glad I could be an inspiration to someone.
Furron
its coming along nicely - looking forward to the details :lol:
