My baby wip

Set out to do my daughter, got carried away tonight, should not have started ont he texturing because I was too tired, but just had a play and here is what I came up with. Understand its just a quick mock up. Also my first ever zbrush model.

Help for a better skin texture would be great, because babies dont really have skin pores, and same with the light set up. Help me improve, comments welcome.

You have made a great start. I have often thought about doing my children, but it is quite a task not to and up with Chucky… if you know what I mean!!

I am no expert in skin texture but you are welcome to use mine as a base… of course I say mine when really it belongs to the forum, since I think most people have had some hand in it.

Sophie looks great so far. :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:

Looking forward to more.

been busy with my daughter ironically enough, so here is my latest update. BTW, how do you get rid of the jaggies around the edge of the face?

Hey,
When you Export(save) your picture, make sure it’s set at “AAHalf” -it’s for anti-aliasing, and looks better.

thanks for thar. I have just done anoher render. Now I need to get on with bump map, specular, diffuse etc. Anyone give me any pointers at to what these maps should look like and how to create them,

What you guys think of the render?firstsss.jpg

Sophie’s looking great for a first ZB model! well done Magician :+1:

I don’t know about your daughters ears, but have attached some ‘baby ear’ reference which might help achieve a more ‘fleshy’ feel…

I checked my sons ears, but he’s a little older than her, I think :slight_smile:

thanls for that ^^^. IU was going to modify the texture at a later stage, but will use the ears.

If anyone can give me a resource for bump, specualr etc creation that would be great.

Have a look at Loïc Zimmermann’s maps for his Yatoer model

update,c & c welcome.

If you could give me any pointers as to how to improve the lighting, as at the moment I have a 3pt lighting set up. Any help appreciated.

pleazsse give feedback and help with lighting, eyelashes, borws etc.

Ei man, that was totally great, we could see the enhancement of your little sophie. We loved it. Well, you should add more hairs to the eyebrows, well a little bit… balanced lightings… and please be aware for the unwanted colors in the texture. Guess that’s it for now… but, i’d say it was so great! Well wait for the next update.

This is great! It already radiates ‘life’.
