Movie Designs

Thanks again guys,

billrobertson42 :
I usually get a few lines from the script, short descriptions, and go off into my cave and bash out some Zbrush stuff right off the bat.I only get a day or two to get this done!!
Most of the time I start off with a base head or body that I made in lightwave ( I have been using XSI lately, love it!) Sometimes creatures are easy-er with Zspheres.
Most of the renders are from Zbrush, but if I get time I love to use Mental Ray ( when I can figure it out!) With bits added and comped in PS.

The designs get sent off , too the decision makers ( not always the director ) and with changes ( there are always changes!) I get maybe a week depending on when the next meeting is.

when the designs are approved ( we hope) we do a full scale maquette in clay, but sometimes we go straight to the final sculpt,

I hope this all makes sense.

If the guys at Pixologic are listening thanks for making my job easyer, and way more productive!! I am now making it better as a freelancer than all my years in the shops , and it has a lot to do with Zbrush. THANKSPluto_design2.jpg

Great job man! I work in the make up FX biz, and love Z brush as a design tool as well. What makeup FX company worked on this? Are you their designer or do you work for the art dept? Just curious. J

Avatarsw:Thanks! I did these designs fof KNB , I worked there for quit a while, but , I am a freelancer now, I do designs, 2D/3D, and sculptures for shops, production companys, film pitches, etc.
This way I get to be at home more!!
