Hey everyone! Thanks for the great comments, I'm honored and I'm glad the image comes across as intended(heavy as it is). TribunMaximus - That means a lot to me, you have no idea Rory_L - Thank you, and I hope for the best for your boy majid_smiley - Here is a screen grab of the zbrush setup. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. I'm hoping to do something of a breakdown soon.

Greetings ZBrushers, I would like to share with you the status of the upcoming ZBrush 4R7 for Windows and Macintosh systems, both 32-bit and 64-bit. We originally planned for this release to take place before the end of this year. As it turns out, due to the sheer volume of development involved in creating the first ever 64-bit versions of ZBrush for both Windows and Macintosh, it is taking a little longer than expected. There are effectively four versions to test -- twice as many as in previous releases. With that in mind, I feel that we should take the time to fine-tune and deliver the very best possible capstone to the 4.x series in order to allow you to gain the most benefit from the new features. We have therefore decided to postpone the release of Z4R7 from December to January. Please bear with us while we polish ZBrush 4R7. We are as eager to have these new features in your capable artistic hands, as you are to make use of them and reach higher levels of creativity. Have a wonderful Holiday Season and a Happy New Year to all! -Ofer Alon

Hey guys! Just wanted to share a zbrush render that I worked on last night. Testing out its capabilities, but it mostly served as a proof of concept before running the model through Maya. Lots to work on. Have to finish making the costume and giving her some hair (Princess Leia). Sorry for the creepy "no eyes". Just focusing on the skin. If you guys are interested in the full resolution of the image, please follow the link below. =) https://www.artstation.com/artwork/carrie-fisher-wip-722a49ac-c5ac-4e17-8331-7e637ee393e1 Here's some other views of the model along with some detail shots. Hope you like what you see!

FourtyNights - thank you! Morganza - thanks! clwnface - Usually I'm using the references cos I believe this is the only way to be accurate unless one making really stylized stuff. Sorry but there is no way to buy models that was available some time ago. Cheers Eugene

Here is the latest. I also did a pose cause I got tired of looking at the same boring T-ish pose. Zbrush crashed just as I was saving the image. I am thinking its because my model is so dense at its highest levels (cant wait to see how Z64 handles the model, tired of crashes, expecially while I am saving the model). I did however figure out a nice trick. Once I had the Zbrush is not responding do you want to wait message. I waited about 15 minutes (which was not easy to do) and I still had the error. Since I only did the pose for fun but didn't want to lose the image (or time spent), I took a screenshot of it cropped it in PS and fixed the contrast/brightness levels. Its not as good as the full res version but at least I got what I was looking for which was just a different posed image to add some personality in the art.

I opened a new thread to post some of my works for 3D print. I'm working on a mini series right now. the name is "Victorian Angles" and its placed in the steam punk genre. Vicky - Is a 3D printable model. I planed her to be the first of the "Victorian Angles" Miniature series. I'm sculpting this as portfolio pieces. I plan to print her as a 80mm model later this month.
