P.B- well I its tough rhino produces crap geometry for zbrush. I do all my block up in modo. you can re-mesh or re-topo when you get to zb but it’s always through objs. there is no direct file transfer. drop me a line and I will help you how ever i can. [email protected]

dual- no not really the bits wont hold up to harder materials they are so tiny the wax beats them up all the time.

here are some pieces I’ve been working on lately

jmenna- thanks a million

oh I guess I didn’t explain the pieces.
first is a skullish gas-mask
then the rest are beads. designed as lanyard beads for knives and rope ends.
oh yes and the final on the squid cross.
I have an offer from a friend to mill it out of walrus ivory… wow wow

I’ll post pics of the completed pieces.

WOW!!! I’m still encanted by the skid cross very impresive!!! Cpngrats man pretty original work!!!

Great as usual… love the squid cross… what will the dimensions of the ivory be? Looking forward to the final piece…

Ziggy

amazing work man, really impressive and inspirational.

cheers

Did I see right or you are working on 51 million polys models!!! Are all of your models that dense? Again I’m impressed!!

no I usually work in the 18 to 24 mill range, because I’m actually going to fabrication all the details actually have to be there. so I’m screwed as far as mesh size. :wink:

this 5 part model and was in the 60mil range before decimation lol

Yes - I take a look through your sketchbook now and then to remind myself of the crazy stuff that’s possible with ZBrush.

Really awesome to see all the 3D designs come to life in true glory.

Mega inspiration.

Just DAMN!!

Your work is so inspiring that I always end up having to remember to close my jaw when done looking at your samples… :grimacing:

And the level of information and help you provide to others? A freaking saint is what you are! A gifted, artistic, saint with a bend to the dark side.

Keep up the awesome work, T.S. - your posts and updates are greatly appreciated.

thanks guys it’s truly appreciated.
I just think too many people get weird about sharing information.
I think thats what communities are for.

:wink:

great detail :+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1: very nice work!

Been drooling over your sugar skull ring for years. I wish I had some expendable cash for one.

I like all your stuff, but I must say that the cross is freakin’ awesome. :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:

we are talking about milling it out of walrus ivory.
niiiiiiice

Excellent jobs,that’s amazing…

hey hey been busy after my move to Seattle getting settled in and making new pieces…
here are some images of a piece we made for a prosthetic benefit auction it was palladium, 18k gold, and about a carat and a half of diamonds. I’m looking forward to a slight redesign using colored stones, the finish is too bright and needs some patination .
pictures have something to be desired as well :wink:

but not a bad hurried first test. we were the highest selling piece at the auction so that was some what gratifying.
here are some screen caps of some WIPs (woohoo preview)
I’ll have more pics of the new pieces finished soon
