Hi there. I recently finished this digital sculpture of a warrior horse for a workshop running on CGSociety named Animal in Repose. As i have used zbrush extensively for this, it would makes sense to post this here. Here is the link to workshop
Animal in Repose

I have always admired the classic artist’s studies of their typical exaggerated anatomical interpretitions of humans and animals specially horse. Like those of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Geo Stubbs, have always tickled my thoughts to learn from their style and adapt in my own way. Looking at a similar sculpture here in Melbourne inspired me to start my own version of it.

Here are few images of the Horse model that is almost finished. I am working on his rider at the moment and will keep posting the updates. Hope you like it :slight_smile:

great work. love the veins, and the pose! keep it up! it may just be me, but the veins seem a bit to large. I’m probably wrong.

alexleia: i love your clay sculptures
skulll_monster:thanx mate wud be nice to see it there :slight_smile:
nerveink, Webhead, Lucky_1, monstermaker thanks
[email protected]: ou have some really cool sculptures on your site
tpendl20: your right it looks large in clay renders but when its rendered with stone shader they are not gonna be that prominent. i always tent to exaggerate details a little bit as in final renders it gets washed away a bit.
Giantsun: matcap is so much fun…one you get hang of it you can really get some nice looking renders directly from zbrush.

intervain: you probably are right about this not 100% being repose but as i said on cgsociety forums, my idea for this being in repose was as its representing a Sculpture statue, hence making it a still life subject. thanks anyways :smiley:

thanks for all the comments from fellow great artists. There is some really good works produced here. I’m working on the Rider now and will soon post the images.
Ciao’

Thats a beautiful horse sculpt harshdezine but don’t neglect the base your making. I hope it gets some more attention, the stretching brick texture could be mapped a bit better, give it the love you gave the horse :). Can’t wait to see the updates.
