Thank you Vahid! I very much appreciate your encouragement! 
It took me a few moments to realize that those things weren’t eyes. It is still eerie though, every time I come across a group of these creatures.

Can’t neglect sharing this here now, can I? Haha, gonna try making a series of creatures recorded as mock journal entries. Not sure how that’ll turn out but it’ll be fun

If I had a vice it’d be this, making grumpy old men. It is however, very satisfying 
Experimenting with re-purposing old sculpts into something else. Part as a challenge to see if I can make it indistinguishable enough and part as a challenge to see how much time I can save with this workflow.

hello brother whats up? wel all missed you here bro
very beautiful worksss my freind and thanks for sharing
There you are, I was wondering where you’d got to?
Lovely to see some new posts.
A sweet continued exploration of style
@Vahid Ahah, missed you guys too! Can’t wait to see what you do with the new additions to ZBrush 2018!
@Boozy Ah Thank you! I decided to take a break from social media and most digital stuff for awhile, hence the absence. It was refreshing and allowed me to focus solely on my traditional art skills for awhile. But it is good to be back on this side again, I certainly am addicted to ZBrush, haha 
I tried the sphere challenge with Sculptris Pro Mode in ZBrush 2018. And O_O
I was addicted to ZBrush when I had Dynamesh. And now I have this. Goodbye everything else, Hello ZBrush! Haha,
As far as rendering goes, the grey clay renders are from BPR and the colored ones are from Marmoset Toolbag 3. I’ve been experimenting with it a bit. It’s pretty neat to be able to mix up different materials and lights and post-processing effects much like the BPR system but, in real-time! 
A’righty, still reading? Excellent, below are my notes on how I’ve been working with Sculptris Pro Mode, in no particular order.
- Set one of the pen-buttons to "\[backslash]" if you can spare one or assign the toggle button a different hotkey, preferably on the side of your non-dominant hand. It is likely you'd want to toggle it on and off a fair number of times, having to reach all the way across the keyboard to the other side slows things down.
- To selectively control the amount of polygons in a masked out area, either use the Smooth Brush or the Tessimate Panel.
- Backface masking, Mask by PolyGroups and partially hidden meshes - these do not seem to be supported when in Sculptris Pro Mode.
- Linking back to the first point on this list, if you like me use the Pinch Brush a lot, having the shortcut easily accessible will come in handy. It's one of the brushes that doesn't produce desirable results when Sculptris Pro is toggled on.
- Polygroups, if you don't already use them, well, get started already! It's super helpful to mask out areas and/or save masks for later use so to speak.
- Both Project/Insert primitives work really well with Sculptris Pro, The eyes and nails of this little dino here were made using those.
- Adaptive Size: It might take a while to get used to how this works, but my personal preference for now at least is to leave it on.
- And one last thing. Not quite a not as much as it is a remark. Switching between areas of detail and working on larger forms is so much more organic, almost like sketching something on paper where you start detailing out a tiny bit and the grow things out from there. It makes the whole ideation and iteration process that much more fun!
That is all for now. See y’all on the next post!

As I recollect you also have a thing for fish .
May I therefore recommend the perfect synthesis i.e sculpting a dog fish?

@boozy Haha, did not notice that Scooby Doo has seeped into him until I read your post. Makes sense though, I grew up watching that show
A dog fish, why not! That could be a fun chimera, I shall give it a go!
