Detailing a fish in ZB

Hi,this is my first post here but I visit practically every day:)
I’d like to share a couple images of some recent ZB work
I do alot of content work in Poser & DAZ Studio & with support for displacement mapping in both apps I’m finding alot more of my models are being passed through Z-Brush for that added level of detail.
the base mesh of this fish was made in 3dmax,texturing was done in ZB,rigged in Poser and the final render is in DAZ Studio(beta)

Cheers

my first attempts in ZB we’re architectural elements…very cool for getting an aged stone effect:)Column004.jpg

Bienvenido al foro amigo… :+1:excelente trabajo!

Hi Stefan_Morrell. Great sculpting! I love your fish and your stone pillors, any chance you could post the stone material ? It would be a great addition to the Zbrush challenge thread here, http://www.zbrushcentral.com/zbc/showthread.php?t=24490 :smiley:

Have happy Zbrushing!

Hi…I’m just checking out that thread now,lot’s of cool materials in there:+1:

the material on the column is all texture based though (& rendered externally)so probably wouldn’t fit the material thread?
either way it’s already set up as a Studio & Poser figure on my site ,there’s an obj and high res textures in there,

Hey Stefan and Rawn! nice to see you guys here_ like an outing of the brokers union! Excellent stuff Stefan_ well you know I think that! Like you I come here pretty much every day_ the stuff folks are producing with ZBrush is simply awe inspiring!

Stefan if you have any tips for using displacement in P5 and DAZStudio_settings/the process etc I know it would be incredibly helpful for quite a few folks. PusGhetty did a wonderful tutorial here about original Poser figure creation in ZBrush

Hey Noggin
I used to pop into the forums here about once a month…and leave too enious of what people were doing…so its about time I learned something LOL
…and now with P6 coming, it would be good to learn this displacement mapping.

Rawn

I know that feeling Rawn! Well there you are Stefan_ there’s two willing pupils sitting here waiting for any gems or insights you can send our way!

Nice combination fish and background!
