[system]

awsome work ! very inspirative !

[abe_Tamazir]

very cool! i am not too fan of the rendered version though , lots of details have been lost i think from the xzbrush renders…
brilliant work though

[Aberrant]

I love your most recent renders. Very unique character and idea. Nice lighting setup as well.

[MayaDamien]

thanks for your comments guys !
@ abe tamazir ; yes i agree i think i am losing quite a bit of detail .these renders were done with a mesh baked out of decimation master ( which is an amazing plugin). i will try with displacement + nm / altering my lighting setup a bit. i am thinking more fill light , any suggestions welcome though

here is his basemesh .made very quick and dirty with maya

His big toe on his right foot was very misleading at first glance haha.

[Prosthesis]

Hey nice work…
keep them coming…

[MayaDamien]

Hey Guys,

Here is my rendition of one of my favourite characters since I was a teenager.Todd Mcfarlane's Spawn ; I have to say this is sort of a tribute to them because I may not have been a character artist had it not been for their artwork that inspired me so. I was also heavily inspired by Aleksi Briclot's work ( of which I only have some very small but awesome jpgs) This is not Al Simmons though , it is a different HellSpawn from a different era. I call him 'Kufu.' His colours are not normal spawn colours because he is ' malformed' due to the unique circumstances that he was made to become the hellspawn.I have a story for him actually hehe

The end result has been rendered completely using Zbrush Materials, and composited with Photoshop( the lightning and eye effects were painted though =_= ‘’ ‘’ , alas I cant yet do everything using only Z lol) I wanted it to look sort of like a renaissance painting.I hope you like him
Cheers,
D

[wdcstudios]

Really great stuff I really like what you’ve done with the spawn image.

[dustbin1_uk]

Seconded!

This is wonderful! you should be proud!

[marianosteiner]

whoot
the model is fantastic!
but i didnt like the final render ;x
i prefer the orange shader shots

[Disco_Stu]

Amazing photoshop work and model!
Final looks like an old masters oil painting exept for the lightning bolt
a little to airbrushy there.
5 stars

[gpepper]

Great sculpts around here !
The Hellspawn is great too but I don’t like the final render too…
Probably some things to do on him…

Anyway, great great skills of sculpt !

I really like this! Great photoshop work also! However, I personally would love to see it without the filtered canvas texture. As an oil and acrylic painter for many years, I know that paint really builds up on top of the canvas, even when painting thin. You never really see that much canvas show through. That painted build up adds a unique and intricate depth that is missing here. I’ve found it impossible to truly mimic digitally, even with Painter. Which is ok, because digital painting offers it’s own awesome unique look. This, to me though, resembles a small inkjet canvas print out, which probably wasn’t the goal.

Still though, great work!
