Hello everybody! This is my latest work I did using Zbrush 4 R2 in most of the process. I did the rendering in maya using mental ray. I did this work based on the art of Tony DiTerlizzi. I really want to thank Tony for his encouragement and for posting on his blog under Friday Fan Art. I hope you like it!

Hi KC-Production. Thanks for the comment. I’m posting another image showing a little bit most of modeling, because the shader used in the other image hides the details and leaves cleaner than it looks.
amazing how youve managed to get such wafer thin meshes… how was the “hair” done?
really great top row for sure. clean and super detailed.
thanks for sharing.
cheers masc
I’m really not sure what standards they use to put something on the Top Row. The works that do get up there usually do really deserve it, but then there are great woks like this that get totally overlooked. I think they should institute a voting system or something, because too many masterpieces get lost in the shuffle as it is. I love your mermaid and I think it deserves to be up top.
Hi guys! Thank you for the comments and for spending your time visiting my post.
tyrellcorp - Hey man, I did the hair using nurbs curves in Maya. I did so for later use them as rig.
Make sure to rate the tread and bring attention to this wonderful art!
