Thanks a lot for sharing! :slight_smile:

Cheers!

Hey guys! Just a quick update on the “clay-render” tutorial. I am taking some time to do this because I am trying to reproduce the look and feel of my “clay sketches” all within zbrush BPR so you don’t really need to use an external render. I feel I’m getting pretty close to something that I am happy with, so here is a quick render of a ball of clay with the material applied. (I am setting up the material so you can customize the “wetness” and colour easily).

Hope you’ll like it!

Dude can’t wait! I definitely think that there is a lack of good rendering tutorials here. This is much needed and appreciated!

Looks cool.

Those dreads looks so real I can smell’em! Thanks for the info :slight_smile:

Looking forward! :slight_smile: :+1:

Hey guys! Another update on the clay render tutorial, the good news is I am almost done with he materials I am working on: clay and Plasticine so I should be able to start putting something together soon.

I have also done some quick sketches with Dynamesh to test the materials and to standarise a bit the rendering/compositing process and its looking promising. I tried different styles with the sketches so the material can be use more as a presentation material with a variety of styles:

Also I recorded a couple of the sketching session but I won’t include them in the tutorials since it will be PDF so it you want to check them out, here they are:

They look awesome!! Cant wait for the tutorial!

Hey Guys! I have been quite busy lately and just moved into a new place but I will continue with the WET CLAY tutorial from next week.

to give you an update on that, the materials are 99% ready to my satisfaction so it shouldn’t take to long to put everything together in writing and also I have an awesome surprise for you (its confirmed) and decided to extend the resources I will be sharing to Wet clay material, wet clay basic, “waxy” clay, sculpy flesh, sculpy flesh translucent, sculpy wet, grey clay, grey wet clay, plastiline and wet plastiline. so you will have plenty to play around with.

in the mean time I felt like doing something different with colour so here are a couple of sketches, I hope you guys like it.

Both sketches are very interesting. I tend to prefer the first one because it feels more natural. The second one is quite visually overwhelming, especially since different color patterns are mixed together. Really like the sculpt though !

Really like them both, I prefer the second. I love to see the untextured sculpts, it really inspires me to keep learning. 4 days into my ZBrush journey :slight_smile:
