Here is another shot. I know there are tons of issues with the model. No worries, I am bringing it back into zbrush for the umpteenth time for repairs. Then the diffuse, specular and additional bump maps. then rigging and a final render. Then on to a new sculpt because i am getting sick of Spider-Man 
Here is a turn-around of what i have at the moment.

Before and after Zbrush. You have no idea how happy I am to finally have Zbrush work in my favor, after self learning the program for a few months now. This is the start of many good things to come!

I like the comics and how they draw his feet like hes wearing socks, but, I want to give him a little support. haha. So I sculpted a little shoe sole on the bottom of his feet and a little heel support thingy. Just a little detail…back to the anatomy refinement.[

Anatomy update. Now got to work on those webs, uggh:p[[attach=209277]180.jpg[/attach]]
Here is the last render of my spider-man model. I am moving on. render done in 3ds max and then processed in Photoshop for beautification. Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. On to the next model!

nice work, especially on that city render. My only comment, would be to revisit the muscles in the legs, especially the quads, the organization of the muscles there seem a bit wonky, but overall nicely done.
it looks like he is going out the screen…
mkk316 - hehe, the city render is a high res image I found online. I will work on the leg muscles. Thanks for the critique!
artstudio3 - Thank you. unintentionally done. If anything i think it looks like a spider-man game image. Thanks!
Here are the maps I used for the spider-man model. Hope this helps AVTPro

ur final render is looking very close to realllll
Wow! Thank you arsalanali !
Nice stuff John! I meant to post much sooner, but work has been kicking my butt 
I do think you could still Zbrush him some more though. Don’t be afraid to really push things! 
wow this is looking loads better WEll dont m8. Keep it up, cant wait to se more
FoxHound1984 - Thanks Ralph, I do want to work on it more, but Im starting a new model because Im sick of looking at Spider-man, for now. If I do push things, he looks like a body builder more than a lean muscle gymnast, so im happy where he is right now…for now. and congratulations on the new job!
Ashleysparling - Thanks! Im giving him a rest for a little bit. starting on a new model, ill eventually come back to it.

Thanks everyone! I’ll make sure to go back to the model. Im working on the Phoenix right now. i could animate them in a battle…although that would be very quick, Phoenix would just dematerialize spider-man lol.
loving the spider-man sculpt man, i’ve just gotten into zbrush myself, still learning the tricks of the trade. any tips for me?
Wow, you dug this up from the grave my friend lol. Sorry i was late getting back to you, but a few tips to know when starting out in zbrush would be to have patience, first off. take notes, that helped me. Lots of online tutorials, and coffee. If your thing is character art, it would be wise to know anatomy. reference books. Also to know other 3d software like 3ds max or maya.
wow, you’re the first person to get back to me on this site lol.
i learnt 3ds max at uni and have been drawing a lot with the help of a few anatomy books, my problem is keeping up the motivation when it comes to finishing models. yeah the i’m a big comic book fan so seeing spider-man pheonix etc caught my eye lol.
