Now Im having fun

[hendrik_F]

I guess you’re right. I remember, when it got too weird, I always switched to the Fiber Brush and did a few strokes with a nice color and it got all nice and fuzzy again

Oh by the way, I would set the background color in this picture back to black. you can see the gray background shining through in the lower right corner and it kinda breaks the illusion a bit. Other than that, I like it a lot

Hi Mealea

I like your latest explorations…Visually exciting and pleasurable to the eye…

Above is a link to an artist whom I admire alot for the same reasons…You might draw some inspiration from the deep well of his imagination…I don’t know, but in any case, …I think you might enjoy his works…Enjoy

Hya Spirit Dreamer!
That is some interesting stuff, it reminds me of something I saw a long time ago but cant quite remember who it was!

Cheers!

Having gotten frustrated with retopologizing… gak I cant spell that… stuff, I desided to invent my own way of doing it, my way make maters worse but is much more fun and so I did another dead thing. If I keep "retopo-ing this it will have skin eventually.
This started as a plane in Sculptris but got attacked by ZSpheres in Zbrush

This on the other hand was mostly just a lot of fun with Zbrush: This too:

more fun with goo, Greebles and or Zeebles and random other doodles. The Greebles and Zeebles are in a couple of cases made in mockery and in fact out of famous paintings/prints from and artist named Albers, he drove me up the wall when I was a kid and now I have my revenge.

The rest I did, for some odd reason…

I’m going to alternate using these as my desktop backgrounds.
Very organic, very real. The coloration is amazing .
Great creations MealeaYing:D

Just popping in to see your latest…Always a pleasure to see someone daring to explore their unexplored frontiers…never know what to expect, or what’s around the next bend on this path and journy that your on, but luvin and enjoying all that has passed so far… Keep the adventure alive…

[MealeaYing]

@ Cw06: That is more than flattering, Im thrilled! Thank you! I had a look at your website and in my opinion more people here should do the same, your monsters mutants and mutilations are the most disturbing, perverse and in a few cases disturbingly erotic of just about any thing I have ever seen AND THERE ARE SO MANY OF THEM!!!

@ Spirit Dreamer: Thanks to you also! Your latest stuff has me intrigued and I’m watching closely. I learned a lot about composition from the Emilio series, that was very very cool.

Here is something Aurick taught me how to do:

Some screwing around:

I love it… Would be even better with a colored background I think.

So,… would you care to share, and explain how you did it…really really curious, and I can’t figure it out…

[MealeaYing]

@ Spirit Dreamer:
I do these a lot, they are a great way to recycle a botched model. (and calm the hell down after botching it)
So lets see…

1. Make a person, an animal or some other obvious shape. It can be quite rough or highly detailed, your result is not totally dependent on that but it can influence the result to some extent.
2. Append a Zsphere as a subtool, (it should end up somewhere inside your first object)
3. Make your brush size VERY small, (this is variable, small being less than 10 or so)
4. Hit SHIFT A (to put your Zsphere into sketch mode)
5. Set "Unified Skin Resolution" to something high like 512 or 1024 or more.
6. Scribble Zspheres all over your model, be sloppy, scribbling is fun. Make a point of going out side the lines, it can lead to cool stuff.
7. Hit A for a preview (this can take a while cause of step 5)
8. Hide the other subtool(s) and see how it looks.
9. If it is good sub divide it some to smooth the polygons and attack it with the deformation pallet, if its too sparse unhide the other subtools and add more Zspheres (or delete some if you need to.

you can do other things with this like encase whole objects with tiny Zspheres, you can also do this to 2.5D and make things that look like fossils, its very interesting.

If I missed anything let me know, Im a bit of an airhead.
