Hello, Time to start my sketchbook here. I am primarily a hardsurface modeller but I also do some doodles in zbrush occasionally. I would like to improve my organic modelling/sculpting skills. I will try and post the sketches/doodles here on a regular basis. Your feedback is really appreciated. Thanks! Here are some of the sketches I have done in the recent months. Rendered in zbrush and treated in photoshop. -

Hi guys, It's been a while since i worked on a project for fun and to improve my skills. This might be it I started sculpting this character some days ago. I intend to make a low poly version and also a posed sculpture, just in case I decide to print it in 3d Here's my progress on the high poly and some basic poly painting. I have to get back to detail the arms and hands and add more accessories. Maybe I will also include one of the dragons in the final piece. Still a lot to do. Crits are mostly appreciated. Thanks!

Rigoletto study Based on a Rigoletto statue located in Mantua. It's the moment when Rigoletto finds out it is his daughter's, Gilda's dead body in the sack. Sorry for the spoiler... The original statue shows only Rigoletto. http://static.panoramio.com/photos/large/61349613.jpg

Hi this is my first post on ZBC Learn to create Alien designs just play with dynamesh, panel loops, polypainting, and rendered in Keyshot, postpro in Ps hope you like it Thanks

Hi ! As promise here is a little breakdown. I used retopology/crease, with an extensive use of Clip brush/shadowBox for more simple pieces, and Panel loop + alpha for fine details. This workflow can be very fast when you're comfortable with it and give you really nice shapes. Enjoy

Hi this is my first model with Zbrush.. really excited to finally be able to bring my imagination to life! Thanks to many amazing users on ZBC for always helping me out when I had questions This model was inspired from Final Fantasy's monster - Ifrit and Metal Gear Solid's mech designs. Wanted to use this model to explore both organic and hard surface modelling. Hope you guys like it! Final Composition: If Snake was in the Final Fantasy world.. he would probably summon this version of Ifrit Close up shot: (The deformation of the polygons show but I have no idea how to improve it to smooth it out) Left / Right Views: Designed a HUD system to go along with this composition! Inspired by Iron Man, Evangelion, and Pacific Rim. Concept Sketches: Model in neutral pose + weapons

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

Hey guys, I wanted to share with you some character work for an indie FPS fantasy shooter game I am working on with some friends. The game is called Overpower and here are the playable characters so far. Ive posted the high poly sculpts, and the colored version are the game meshes rendered in Marmoset. If you want more information about the game check out our website at www.overpowergame.com

So here's the hair sculpting video. The whole thing took me about five hours to make, but the process is quite repetitive so I cut the recording to half an hour. Put some good music on while you're watching it I would add some commentary over the video but I don't really have a mic here, so maybe some other time. Also, I've recorded the whole process of creating this Joker character, let me know if you're interested to see that as well. It's very similar to my "Making of Gladiator" series. GLvLN6YkCJ8
