Faceplain-my first sculpt

Hi Seavannah!

It is SO cool to see your first works, and you are doing just great! :slight_smile: Way out ahead of me, that’s for sure. I’m still plodding along with zspheres, and slowly finding my way. Haven’t had much time to learn trying to get things done outside while the weather here is still good. When the weather starts turning, there’ll be PLENTY of time for ZBrush, that’s for sure.

Congrats to you! You are doing wonderfully. Keep it up!!

:slight_smile:

Hi Seavannah! I agree with Brett: can you post a bigger image? :wink:
So I can view your latest wok… :+1:

Hi all sorry about that. I had made these images in the scared silly contest, but was unable to complete the final image:cry: and I worked all through the night until 11:49. Had completed the batgarg but didn’t get to posing them just the cave garg. I decided right after posting this image that is was very large and tried to take it off the recent uploads until I made my web site on yahoo. I guess I wasn’t fast enough and you guys are. lol…anyway here it is but no one get mad at me cause it is soo big will update it very soon though so maybe not so big and I hope to finish the final pic even though contest is over. Be gentle on these guys they are my first full blown textured models even though I may have to do them over at least some things for during the contest I had just learned

  1. rigging 2. topology 3. mesh extraction 4. Poly Painting 5.rigging and prob more but my brain is fried lol. and in learning all this stuff realizing I still had sooooo much to learn. anyway thanks brettSinclair, Morbius, piz for posting and getting me back in gear. Morbius I am glad you are still going at zb keep it up. Take care all.

BatGarg
made base mesh using zsphere’s

cape and mask made using topology and then mesh extract to get thickness

boots, gloves and shirt made with mesh extract

bat logo- photoshop for alpha and textures

polypaint with a litle PM for all textures on character.

I am having a prob posing him. He is many subtools and I can’t seem to make him into one. I even tried make one mesh plug but it tells me there are no subtools and the project all button makes it go really funky so today was looking at other threads to see if I can fix it.

Hey now i can see him :wink:

Well done your learning a lot! Cool looking little character. I’m afraid i can’t help with the one mesh issue. I try avoid posing all my armour and stuff in zbrush. Because it doesn’t move all of it. But maybe one mesh isn’t working because you may have a high polycount? I don’t know hehe.

Keep up the great work. If I may say, try find some anatomy books or pictures. I use them as often as I can. I’m still learning :smiley:

Cheers
Brett

Thanks brettsinclair. Yeah it was for the zb contest for Halloween and you had to do the majority in zb so I tried to stay out of max and ps as much as possible but (after countless hours trying the tuts for zb) I found that some things in zb3 don’t work or broken. I was a little dismayed at that especially when time was so scarce for me and I had already done so much I couldn’t go back. I wouldn’t go to another program even though I knew I could fix it there. As far as anatomy I am still learning and have lots and lots of pics from 3dsk but these guys were supposed to be funny so I disregarded it to make them funny and more gargoyle like. One day will go back and fix them all the way. especially if pixo fixes some of this stuff.

p.s. been looking at some of the threads in zbcentral and some issues have been worked on by other users. Will take me awhile since some of the threads are 40+ pages long lol.
