Hello everyone this is one of my personal projects, a demon lord, I try different skin shaders and more colourful texturing. This artwork is also featured in digital art masters

Hi guys, finally found some time to move forward with my hobbit sculpt the concept from Vinod Rams that inspired me: I wasn't so fan of my last render, so I gave it a try in keyshot That fellow haunted me for months, I needed to see how it would look like in color The above render is built in Photoshop with polypaint and multipasses in Zbrush, no additional painting BPR breakdown coming soon Hope you like it

Hello Guys,since i'm going to do these for a while, i think one thread for all of them is much more effective than creating one every time So... I'll post my SpitSculpts here and if you want, i can create some progress shots or timelapse records Maybe if there is some interest, i could even do a tutorial or something Enough talk... These are the first of the SpitSculpts all 45min each and about 2min in Keyshot, in the future i'll maybe start polypainting them!Hope you like them! BTW. For some of the older SpitSculpts you can visit my Deviantart Profile http://t-magnus.deviantart.com/ Alternate Godzilla Disco Stu Alien Concept Bark Face Mushroom Head Tribal Guy Thanks for looking C&C Always welcome

Hey gang! Been lurking a while, but I just recently joined the community. I work mostly in 2D as a webcartoonist so 3D is a fun new challenge for me. ZBrush has totally opened my eyes! So here goes! Working on this selfie thing to get more familiar with the program and all that. Lots of dynamoooshing! Based on this silly sketch. And I recorded a timelapse: uPDevCk8z7Q

I grab some wip images when I was sculpting, I used these images for this Making Of, maybe I need apologize for my English first, I hope you can get what I mean with my bad English The first thing I was doing was searching references, I googled a lot of De Niro's pics and evaluate which one will be the best for DeNiro's look, first time I saw the black/white one I knew it was the one I was gonna do, I think it has a very fascinating express and can capture people's eyes quickly. Also I needed more reference especially at this age, it's not possible to find nice enough pictures on internet, so I decided to find a movie of him , Righteous Kill, and grab some very nice pictures of him ,especially the side view of him, and it's very close to his age in the black/white picture. For My experience, you should select 1 or 2 or 3 pictures for the main reference, and other pics just for finding forms and shape connections. 'cause pictures from internet always have very different focal length, and may lead you to the wrong place. In this case , I use those 3 for my main references. Next I was going to start to work on it. After the head was good, I started to wok on the hair. I used maya hair system for hair. The method I modeled hair was base on layers, first I did a general shape of hair with some polygon planes. and then I started to split those meshes to more detailed hair planes. I analyzed the photo and found that at least he has 3 different kind of hair, 1 is black, 1 is grey ,and 1 is white, so there's at least 3 layers. After this I added some messy hair, and some little hair at hairline area. You can see the main layers of hair I did: By the way, the hair shader for black and grey were Vray hair shader3, but the white one is default hair shader. I found it's hard to get "white enough" look by Vray Hair shader3. Next is texture. I didn't spend much time on texture, 'cause it left little time there. The shader for skin is Vray Fast SSS2 shader. The last thing was lighting . It was simple setting, see blew: That's it Hope you like the work. PS, here's a Gif of my sculpting process. I have a Chinese version for the Making Of that I shared with my friends on my blog, if you're interesting in it, check it: http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_88763aa90101h9wy.html

Diablo: Thanks Interlude Notes 01: Inter-Galactic Credit (metal coin) I've been working with ZB for a long time, but I still get astounded by the speed of its tools and techniques. This little project consists of 5 coins (actually the same coin design with 5 different digits) that are to be produced as actual metal coins for the Among the Stars game by Artipia Games. I think they will be also offered as a stand alone item for other games, like the Netrunner living card game. This is a super fast way to produce 3D assets.

I have been cleaning up my old backup drive and I found and old concept part of a series I was doing called “lost creatures” and I decided to do another take on it and this is what I came up with. hope you guys like it! model: Dynamesh, fur: fibermesh, render: BPR, compositing: PS

Hi Guys, Here's my latest work, De Niro,I did this one for CGFeedback's Mini Challenge(likeness sculpt), and got lucky enough to have the first place. Also I did a little Making Of for this piece after I finished it. will post it later. Ref VS Render

Hi everyone, I made some adjustments in my anatomy study...Next I'm going to work better in hands, feets, the arms and the lower limbs. Any suggestion?

Study on monalisa painting. not an easy stuff to do because I have to imagine how to translate a painting into 3 dimensional view. need to tweak more. C&C are most welcome

Greetings all! First attempt at creating something in Zbrush. I'm absolutely loving it! Always been a hard surface polygonal modeller and always strayed away from organic modelling, but this just seems so accessbile and most of all fun (once you get past the layout that is). Anyway, here is what i've got so far. No prizes for guessing what i'm attempting, but I won't hold a grudge if you confuse it for a duck. I spent a couple of hours on it and thought I was getting nowhere for a while, but eventually the shape just ended up on the right track. Any advice on how to progress would be great. There are few specific things i'd like some advice on. Firstly, the side view looks off to me, I just can't figure out what. Maybe the entire head needs to come forward a little? Also, i'm having trouble hollowing out the mouth. What would be the best way to do this, and how to mask off the specific areas in order to get to it properly? Finally, as well as how to touch up what i've got so far, general advice on how to progress would be great. Maybe the teeth? I'm dreading the eyes. I haven't got the best eye for detail and haven't the slightest clue about anotomy right now, so i'm hoping I can just capture as much as I can from reference. I'm aiming more for the original movie style (and that's where my reference has come from) but i'm not going for pinpoint accuracy so bits can be off here and there as long as it has the same sort of feel. Finally, be kind, it's my first attempt remember. Cheers, Col
