my Zbrush (Sarge and Orc Bust)

Nice work on the Orc head…I like the pores and details you put on him.

I agree with the brow for the most part im loving the idea, can wait to see the finished product. Keep it up man and think about going all out with it I’d love to see it as a full body model but the bust is coming along.

It’s like, if that guy from prison break met bruce willis - and they had a baby. And then, meanwhile, that crazy master-chief by kolby jukes and sarge from quake III met and had a baby. And… by some miracle, those two babies met, and ****ed - This would be the **** that they birthed.

-tightening up this model for my portfolio, I’m posting it for critiques. Originally he had a cigar in the mouth, I can’t make up my mind. The idea is a newish version of sarge from Quake III.

I poly painted him for fun.

i painted an eye in photoshop and composited the zdepth with reflection and a gauss blur.

nice work man ,i like the details,the last one reminde me of Kolbyjukes bust:+1:

Loving the detail on both characters expecially the skin on the human character (definitely want to ask a few questions about your process :D)

keep up the excellent work :+1:

thank you guys very much.

while sculpting i found the kolby jukes bust and looked at it all the time, im glad somethings spilled over. I don’t know exactly why but I think that might be my favorite sculpt ever.

ZedHead- I’d by happy to answer any questions you have, and I’d like for you guys to point out some things you think could be better.

thanks again for your comments

Kolby Jukes is fantastic inspiration to draw from, but you are skilled enough that your own creations really stand out. great job. :+1:

Simply amazing realism on the skin texture! What did you use to get that fine grit texture? Is that done with alpha maps?

thank you Tristikov

im not sure if you mean tactile texture or color texture

but his skin is all zbrush alphas, the dots one scattered and a standard with noise. there is one alpha i used at the end to break up the the loose wrinkles under the eye the forehead and nasal labial fold and that was a leather texture i got from cgtextures.

the color is polypainting but when i rendered it within zbrush at “best” and it adds an uneven noise to the shadows which is nice but it wasn’t intentional.

also, one more sculpting bit - i very much like to go over the skin that slides around like the forehead especially and the brow and cheekbone with a big blobby alpha and the opacity scatter brush on a low level to get an uneven lumpiness. it makes the skin look less fatty and more used and really breaks up the form, even going over the nose and chin. places like cheek and around the mouth i intentionally make smoother and fatty.

thanks again for your comment.

These turned out great :+1:

hey man, really nice work! How did you get sweet renders like that in zbrush? any tips?

very nice.
cant wait to see your next sculpt

Love the sarge guy. Very nice work!!!

The Orc’s eyes look a little too fishy for me. They are very glossy and don’t seem to fit with the character you described.

Tone down the gloss and bring his brow forward. Make him seem more like a caveman that evolved into this deep cave dweler.

Just a few suggestions. Keep up the great work man!! I’m excited to see more!!!

Hi truedeja! Me, again. Cool worx on this thread man! Don’t know how you got the 2.50 average rating :evil: ! I’m giving you 5 stars to even things out a bit!We should hold off rating on sketchbook and wip threads until ZBC allows us to alter previous votes… . Lookin’ forward to your next worx! :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: !

Hey truedeja, sorry for my double post but I felt my previous reply wasn’t clear enough: I think your Wips are worth 5 stars. The fact that it ups the thread rating wasn’t the prime reason for the 5 (it’s a convenient “side-effect” :slight_smile: ).
