Hey dude, thanks for stopping by to say hello. I have to say how gob-smacked I am to see how far you’ve progressed from when I first joined ZBC. these last pieces are jaw droppingly good!!! :Dsmall_orange_diamondsmall_orange_diamondsmall_orange_diamond

Thank you soooooo much! Here’s an update on the face. Next likeness anatomy then the retopo. I can’t do much more on the face before retpologizing, it’s a 5k model now.

wow

i’ve always liked your stuff and this is no different, brilliant progress

I like your anatomy experiment, some proportions are a bit of, but it looks like a great approach

[QUOTE]seems like you are wasting a lot of time trying to get to the point of a skeleton though when that is just going to end up getting covered up anyway though[/QUOTE

Anatomy practice is NEVER a waste of time. You’ve got the right attitude, Dmitrij, and it will serve you well. If you’re looking to get more familiar with body anatomy, I highly recommend doing an ecorche. I know it’s a bit academic and cliche, but they really are great practice

mazz423 thanks man! I owe it all to my highschool and academy teachers and to you guys here for helping me get to know the program

Santis thanks again! Yeah I’m not really paying attention to the proportions yet, just that everything is there and then I’ll tweak it to be like Johnny here.

Dustinbrown! Thanks! I will do it for sure when I find the time. I just thought this would be more preferable approach to finishing a one piece model.

Looking real fine there! Looking forward for more!

Cool man! One of THE crucial anatomy exercises, nicely executed and retaining your personal sculpting style (you probably knew I would like this one…)

[cherub_rock]

SolidSnakexxx thank you so much! I’ll keep you updated

Etcher, I’m always happy when you stop by, as you know I admire and follow your work.

Well I had a hunch Thank you, hopefully the next one will be better. Still having some trouble figuring some things out, but getting closer.

Thanks all!

Some of the sketches I made during the last 2 days for a client. The ones that didn’t satisfy the need of the employer, so I’ll try some more.

I think no harm in uploading these since they were rejected :)

My own designs, inspired by demons, symbols of power, life and death from all over the world and history.

Hey MayaDamien, nice to see you here! Thanks for the encouragement.

[SolidSnakexxx]

Very cool designs…I really like the tail eating dragon!

[Santis]

I really like the scorpion!

[cherub_rock]

SolidSnakexxx thanks! Glad you like it

[cherub_rock]

Hey Santis! Thanks!

[Aberrant]

Cherub_Rock this is a great update! Very cool and creative ideas you came up with. Seems like you got them finished quickly too. My favorite is probably the scorpion. Keep up the good work!

[cherub_rock]

Thanks Aberrant!

Played with this one, and turned out really disturbing even for me (I think it’s the flowers, somehow they don’t belong), but after some thought I decided to publish it. It’s the late Dr. Tuđman, first Croatian president as Ravana. You’ve had the chance to see this sculpt previously, and it’s the same one + some quick hair.
