Mac 'N' Cheese - Zbrush progress

thanks, we did in fact graduate with this short!
bedankt dave!

The control pass contains a different type of shadowing in each channel, R=hard shadow (ramp + surf lum) G= soft (,) B=AO. Also a mask pass with 2 different facing ratios were put out. We use the seperate channels to color correct the diffuse color pass.
So basically no shader, just surface shaders with some ramps. All done in compositing, hand painted textures are the important base.
The environments also have a slight minimax - median filtering going on. (I use this instead of lensblurs for painty effect) and to creat paintstroke look for the stone. Hope it helps! If we have time and if theres enough interest maybe we’ll fix a short making of.
thnx guys!

Loved the design and render, very similar to Team Fortress 2. You guys rocked!

wow!! THIS is fantastic!, great painted “effect” on that environment.
congrats guys

Really sweet work! Bravo guys!
:slight_smile: The music and animation was awesome!

I have a Q. Did you deform the terrain mesh or you did it in post ? (im talkin about when the skinny guy got the drug) ?

We deformed the mesh :slight_smile: That’s why the background was so high poly as you can see in our previous post!

I love it all! :+1:

Very nice style. Good job

This tottally looks like something form pixar if they weren’t so kids oriented ;D What is there to say, i had a lot of fun watching it ! Also the mdoels themself kick ass !

thanks a lot guys! glad you enjoyed it!!!

It’s lovely work, but I think a little tip of the hat to the guys behind “Meet Buck” would be a decent thing to do, as the work they did on that short clearly laid the groundwork for this one. Impressive stuff though. Great sculpting.

Howdy captain, if you read the full description with our video you’ll see both Meet Buck and TF2 were a great inspiration:D
thanks

Cool, I didn’t want it to look like I was being a tw@t about your guys stuff. It’s really nice work, something you should all be proud of, just wanted to point out to the people on the forum the other cool work that uses a similar, fantastic look.

no problem! Thanks:D
