Cubanb's (AKA Screenwriter805 on Youtube) Sketchbook

Hi guys! It’s been a while since I’ve posted any images on here… so I’m adding my latest work, and will be adding a bit from my newest piece in a bit! Hope you like it!!

The majority of the models were created in Zbrush, but the collar, eyes, and prosthetic stuff was created in MAX.

You can check out the process on my youtube page! You can find it in the Unlucky Man playlist!

Hey guys, hope you like him! I textured him using Zaplink and standard polypainting. He’s going to be exported as a low poly model for use in MAX and FPSC!

I never really got into ZELDA games… ever… but my soon to be nephew in-law asked me to show him how to create a picture he drew in 3d… so I told him to draw anything, and he chose that metrosexual looking elf of all things…

So, having researched his look, I’ve decided to make my own version with many of his attributes the same except his girly features…

I’m making him look more like a badass elf… lol.

Hi there, I was just viewing your displacement map tutorial the other day and pop you’re here :slight_smile: Thanks a lot for that one, it’s so clear :+1: On to your models, looking at the alien I suspect you’re not giving us your best :wink:

cheers
cr

Well first off, I’m glad my tut was helpful! :slight_smile:

Hope you like the other stuff. You are correct. That is not my best. Those pics are from my earlier days.

First off I apologize, English is not my first language, and what I meant was that the alien model was pretty good, best of the lot, and judging on it that perhaps your skills surpass what you’re showing/doing. Hope this time comes out good :):+1:

I think what you really need to work on is learning anatomy. Pickup an anatomy book, or sub to 3d.sk, and just work on that. Start with face sculpting practice, work off photos for reference while watching a few tutorials. After that work on your full body sculpts, that should help you out leaps and bounds.

Will do. Thanks :slight_smile:

oh specifically i was talking about link and the facial features. even though it’s based on fantasy it could benefit from certain details. I know learning the human face has been a huge help for me, didn’t mean to insult by it, just trying to offer constructive crits :slight_smile:

Thanks cherub! I’m glad you liked the alien. Are you talking about the ALIEN alien, or the creature I just created? I get confused sometimes, as they are both alien lol…

LOL I was referring to the HR Giger, Sigourney Weaver alien Alien :smiley:

Right on Cherub, thanks! I personally hate that one, to be honest, lol. I like my latest model best, but he wasn’t a speed sculpt which is probably why. I love all things ALIEN series related, in fact I think I’m going to make a newer better version of that guy.

Scooby - No harm no foul. I don’t usually do those anime kinda characters, so i get jumbled with facial anatomy that would or would not be there… I’m trying to do a blend of realistic and anime… meh… I can see how at this stage it looks pretty bleh… lol… It will come along, i promise! :slight_smile:

I edited this because I’m trying to turn a new leaf. :slight_smile:

The way it works: when you do something that other people like you get good grades, when you do something you like and is not standard you get bad grades. So you have to decide whether you want to do what others like or what you like, maybe what you like is to please other people so there you go hehe. I do what I like, and as soon as I start a thread I give myself one star because the rating couldn’t bother me less. And yeah, there are a lot of people conforming to standards, and give grades comparing your work to the trends. It sucks if you haven’t got the gut and love for your work :wink: I personally like your work, the dog and and the old man comp has a very powerful nostalgic emotion, however you pay attention to the detail, but anatomy is a bit off, so if you did a jewel collection, you’d probaably get 4 or 5 star ratings imo.

good luck!

You’re the only person who likes my work cherub! Lol. You and my youtube subscribers, at least. Lol

Concerning the old man comp… That was a piece I was asked to do, actually. It was a pic for a tshirt saying… “Could be worse… I could be addicted to Meth”

I thought it was a colorful way to make a point lol. But without the captionan I suppose it does seem rather harsh.

I appreciate your feedback because you address me very kindly… As such, I must ask, which model needs more anatomical research? I’m sincerely curious. Most of my work is inspired by pro bodybuilders. Lol. I think this guys is pretty correct… :(… meh …

Also, what do you mean by Jewel collection? :slight_smile:

Hi, no problem :+1: all humanoid models need more anatomy studying, I would suggest Sobotta’s anatomy atlas, you can torrent download it easily of course or buy the book :smiley: If you’re downloading be sure to get the scan of the book version, I got the german one, cause english that I’ve been able to find was a programmed atlas and not the same quality.

I think some kind of filigree (?) would be your fastest way to good grades, such as jewellery, I’m basing this theory on the details on the back of the head of that green alien cyborg and the alien Alien’s body, also this doesn’t require much anatomy studying. Just a thought of course :wink:

Here’s an update to the current model I’m working on… Making Link a bit tougher than I remember. lol

[![l_1e2c75632bec417496b765567049e7c2.jpg|600x450](upload://r2SKGzptFGJEIsA1AJ47a46Y168.jpeg)]![CharacterStrip.jpg|1084x375](upload://qZ2FgPSP20akSDUBCoiTyZ7XSii.jpeg)

The drawing my nephew gave me to base it off of was only fron the torso up, so sorry… no lower half… lol

Hope you guys like it. I’d hope that would get me at least another HALF of a star :/…

I’d tone down Link’s muscles quite a bit. His character isn’t really known for being ripped. I’d also make his face less chiseled and manly. I’d almost lean his face toward something slightly feminine. He kind of has that ambiguous Manga quality to him in the illustrations I’ve seen. He’s a pretty boy, not Conan :slight_smile:
