Hy Pusghetty THIS ONE IS SUPERB¡¡¡
EXTREMELY BEUTIFUL AND ELEGANT¡¡¡
ALL THE POST HERE (I AGREE WITH RHOM¡¡¡)
ARE JUST FANTASTIC¡¡¡
CONGRATULATIONS
Excellent dragon P-man!!
This one got a little out of control…I went zif happy on it. I thought it looked cool but d@amn is it gonna be hard to edit the mesh! Not to mention pose it!! I am crossing my fingers and hoping the new version will have enhanced features to help with this. Otherwise it’s off to the Island of Lost Wips with him! Muwhahahaha…

OH MAY GOD!!!
Gwot I told you Mentat was going to take that method and TEAR IT UP!
Didn’t I tell you! I TOLD YOU! MWOAHAHA!
Lonnie…your a God buddy!
Oh yeah…I forgot to mention…I hate you now…LOL. 
Okay everyone, Gwot and Mentat have raised
the bar…who is up for a week extension on
the challenge to continue harnessing the
power of Zifs…?
I am…anyone else?
The WIP island?!?! Are you mad!?!?
Hell, send it to my house…its more then welcome!! SPOC or no SPOC Geez!..
My god I can’t stop staring at it…
starts grumbling at mentat
…I need more practice…
edit
Alrighty Trout boy …two things:
In Pix’s Dino walk cycle thread, he posted this…
Furthermore, any time during the modeling/texturing process, you may move ZSpheres to a new location to gain easy access to other areas of the mesh which may be blocked by these ZSpheres (such as moving the arms further away from the shoulders to gain full, unobstructed access to the chest).
Second, what is the membrane setting on that bad boy?
LOL! That is just totally insane!
Incredible work mentat!
Can’t wait to see the detailed version of that dragon PusGhetty!
Lol…thanks yall…lol…
I wanna know who’s writtin the rules for godhood…PeeWee Herman? 
LOL
No preview editing here…it is just plain zif work.
Mike the membrane curvature is set to 100. I remember what Pix said about moving the spheres and such for editing in the next version. What is concerning me is trying to move all the “armor” stuff with the body parts since it isn’t attached to the same links as the arms, legs, etc. An animation nightmare to be sure! 
You hate me? LOL join the crowd LOL!!! hahaha There are only two people on this planet that love me…My wife and my momma. And my momma ain’t in my will… lol
/Mentat slaps MtB in the head with a large rotting trout.
snicker… /me gives a chinese half clap to Ma’ Lord Lonomatic…lol…Mtb…we need to take yer temperature bud…lol…first it was wrinkles in my face now you have given me massive lol Lines…
Seriously though…great looking models everyone. And you have my vote for another week of this madness…seems like everyone is having a great time doing these. With that said I throw in another contribution I was just working on…no where near the bar of excellence that is being achieved by my esteemed peers on this thread but hey…like I preach…have fun and practice practice practice…and that is what I am trying to do…so here ya go.
One piece…Big Head Alien Chick with go go boots… 
Goodness guys where do you find the time! Great stuff.
Damn Mentat, I nearly wept when I saw the Zsphere version. That looks insane Really cool model
So many cool entries, Pushgetty love your dragon, RAMSESIIV really like your style with this one and Stolen_Goods super neat displacer beast. And also congrats to everyone else, great entries
I Doubt I’ll have time to do anything. Maybe in a couple of days.
oh mentat, yes that really great. but should be a texturing nightmare, in case you try
you are right about the green and pink, was in a strange mood when i chose those, but then next day, i could not change because of auv tiles. it was so much drop and pick with tm, that i did not want to do it again, just to change color. is there a simple way to do so ?
mtb, yes, i definitely would like to extend the challenge, as the next days i will not be near zbrush, so cannot try to catch up mentat. i mean there is no hope to come close, but would be fun to try.
could not resist to zspheres after reading bonecradles tut.
my big thanks go to bonecradle, who lifted with his tut my emotional blinders wrt the x-res, y-res and zres sliders. these make it infact possible to make with zspheres more mechanical type objects like this crazy wagon. (sorry, it does not fit the topic really and has to many polys …)
great looking zifs ,
and damn lonnie , that mouse looks awesome , how about a cat now and make em do a sword fight
Hi Kokoro,
I haven’t tried this yet but I have been thinking about it. Try opening the texture in Photoshop and converting the colors to Indexed Colors. Then do a color adjustment on the Greens and then the Reds (Pinks). You may also try selecting by color and adjusting that way. Not sure how difficult it would be but it may be worth a shot.
hi mates!
very thanks for the inspiration(al work)!!!
thanks again!!!
greets!
Hey Froyd! I don’t know exactly what that thing is but it sure looks cool! You have given me an idea too…
Really wicked model froyd!!
…
Oh no…Lonnie has more ideas…
runs away to hide from the coming nightmares
well I am definitely getting some much needed Zif practice in here…and its addictive once ya get started…yall’s work is very inspiring for me not to mention fun to look at…
