AdrianP : thanks!
deckard01 : thanks a lot. I love your work man, I added some more spec in the turnaround still pretty new to rendering and somewhat to texturing.
Thanks for the input, I’m always looking for some feedback.
About xtrm3d: I see that you’re a technical artist at Naughty Dog. You have some nice sculpting skills, wouldn’t have thought you were a technical artist, nice skills man. thanks for the compliment!
KC-Production: thanks man, still learning a lot, there a few parts on him that are hit or miss, I spent most of my time on the chest.

This is a WIP of the texture of the T-Rex I did a while back
feedback is welcome, as always

I have to fix a lot of stuff on this; re-render, fix cameras, need to re-typo and line up wire frames, fix the transparency on mermaid and render, blah blah blah. lots of stuff to fix hope you like it thus far, any feed back is welcome.
I just got done with school!

PS: I don’t know how to post videos in ZBC. If any one has a link that shows how or can explain it to me that would be a great help.

Hey, like the reel! especially first and last sculpt (the study) it looked natural to me, not the usual perfect woman which is a nice change!

8 hours of sleep in 4 days. Time to take a nap…

This is a speed sculpt that I did from a sphere. I was showing how to do a speed sculpt to a friend and made this, I like it a lot and will spend more time on it at a later date! </SPAN>
Haven’t posted up in a while, I’ve been pretty busy doing freelance work.</SPAN>

This was done over 9 months ago, when I was an undergrad. I was asked by Steve Conner to do this for Phathom, this was all done in Zbrush and Composited in Photoshop.

this is cool. how did you get the transperacy effect photoshop?

id like to appy this trick to an angler fish im creating.

keep up the great work!

thanks!,
Its was a few zbrush materials that I made (if you don’t know how to make them, then you can start off with some of the gel-matcaps and render with the transparency settings on. It took me a day or two to get the settings right.) then I comp it in photoshop, and I modeled out skeleton, muscles, vein ext. The different passes (some passes were Translucent or just outlines) were rendered in zbrush. I’ll post up more later.

im almost done with my little character. im going to retopo him then paint it.
its inteded for game use but i would love to create a translucent effect for a beauty shot.
