That Wednesday One is awesome. So for the full body (Like the arms and legs,etc) are you using zspheres or dynamesh for that; or do you have premade hands, feet, and torso basemeshes?

Good Stuff as usual…

Thanks For sharing.

Couldn’t agree more, excellent works here !:+1:

#88

selahpoetic-her body is made from spheres and it looks a lot like a ball jointed doll. I then dynamesh that once it is posed. I try to make it all new with each character so i can experiment with new shapes. I did use some hands I had made before for her. Thanks for the comments-

Thanks truubluu

Really lovin’ the light build on the Native man! Is that too Light Caps with the falloff lowered to mimic cellshading, or is it added later in an app like Photoshop or Painter?

#90

Pontan- here is the lightcap I used that that image. it was all rendered in Zbrush in 1 pass. I used 5 lights all with shadows off and specular opacity lowered to zero. While the falloff was low it is not quite lowered to zero. The trick with this technique is to move the lights around to capture the shapes you want. Shadows were made with the default light and AO.
I think I will cover this more in a video series I will put together.

Okay okay I’ll subscribe. You don’t have to twist my arm. :wink:
Every page has had gold so far, great sculpts.

#98

I remember you saying you start out with Dynamesh but do you zremesh after the sculpt to make it easier to create these expressions?

Thanks
selah.

#99

Thanks Wyatt

Selah- yes, I work everything out in dynamesh. I then use the remesher guides and Zremesher to make a mesh with subdivisions that is easier to pose.
