Definitely seeing a marked improvement with every piece you do. Good job!
I think your absolutely right about trying something different every time and not getting into a rut. Experimenting can quickly lead to new ideas and to different ways of doing things. Not only that, it also never gets boring. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Zber2! I’m glad you like it.
Afternoon progress.
Test posing.
I photoshopped a couple of dozen Japanese/samurai related alphas today, so if anyone needs or wants them post here and I’ll be happy to zip them up and attach them.

Interesting way to use fibermesh. I’m certain someone else has done this, but I haven’t seen it. The streamers coming off the polearm are fibermesh.
Hi Gary, I like ALL your experimenting (heck lot more than what I am doing-:o). This is cool. It’s a mixer of old meets future. One thing though, ‘I think’ that your intensity is just a tad bit too strong when you put in the designs??? Also, an ‘edge’ to the armour would really help tie it all in (the cool designs you used look lonely without some kind of support-;)). And I agree, great use of the fiber mesh!
Thanks, Dragon! Yeah, I’m gonna go in and smooth back the engravings a little bit. ON looking back, I should have used inflate balloon instead of inflate. Oh well, if I don’t make at least 100 mistakes per sculpt I feel like I haven’t learned anything.
A little progress today. I still need to figure out what I want to do with the left arm (first priority) and then add some more armor pieces and decorative doodads.
Umm… does anyone else ever sit at theiir computer after uploading a pic here and start clicking on the picture constantly trying to figure out why you suddenly can’t rotate your mesh?
Nobody does that? Good! I don’t do it either… really…
Not really a “first attempt” on this one, but something I haven’t tried for quite a while… An actual full blown organic sculpt. /gulp
I won’t say what it is for the time being. Hopefully it will become self-evident as the sculpt develops… at least I hope it does…

Good one voodoodad! “Little Shop Of Horrors” comes to mind.
Thanks Blue! Hehe. The comp was more or less a throwaway. Five minutes in photoshop to mask the area for the title. It actually took me longer to find the poster in google than the piece took to create lol. The Sculpt was about an hour of actual work and 3 hours sitting staring at my monitor deciding what to do with it.
I’m reworking the Joker sculpt I attempted when I first started with Zbrush but I need advice. I realize that since its a comic book type image, the proportions won’t be anywhere near to a normal human being, but even taking that into account it still looks off and I can’t figure out what to change to make it look a little more “realistic”. Tips are most appreciated.
