The Silver Hammer

ZBrush Artworks

Hello,

here is a new part of my silver armour (still w.i.p.).
I used ZBrush and 3ds max.
Hope you like it.

The next part will be the breastplate.

PS:
It is part of a full ceremonial armour.
Please have a look at the other parts.

Mario said it all. Great WIP! :+1:

#4

this is super , i love the texturing and detailing.Your modeling skills are very good
:+1: :+1:

#5

wow !! maybe the black matherial of the hammer is not so good as the other…

anyway, I like the work :sunglasses: :+1:

#6

Great work!!

Why is it 3D studio max and zbrush work so well together?, and other programs (cinema 4D exception) cock things up. In Maya without renderman its no good, in softimage Mental Ray no good and Lightwave…lets not say anything at all (love the program but it needs updating). Am I gonna have to learn 3D studio, Cinema 4D or wait until PMG make Messiah more stable? Sorry to digress its just the quality you have achieved makes me sooooo jealous

Great work:+1:

Thanks for all your nice comments.

andreseloy:
I´m not very good in explaining things, but i will try to do
a “making of” for my next piece - the silver breastplate.

Drummer:
Yes, the black material is not so good - i will replace it :slight_smile: .

ZedHead:
No problem - i´m also not very happy about maya+ZBrush -
that´s why i use 3ds max…

Hello,

here is a small update.
I changed the lighting a bit to give it a warmer shade.

The head of the hammer is now made of blue crystal -
not very useful, but it looks nice :wink: .

Hope you like this version too.

Beautiful job. Any chance you could share the material used for the glass or crystal hammer head?

headbirth:
Here is the material you wanted - but it is no ZBrush material.
You need 3ds max and finalRender to use it…

Deus: I’ve been watching this for a while and I like how it’s turning out a lot.
My personal preference with the two latest is the cooler lights with the crystal hammer. The warmer lights don’t let the pieces stand out enough IMHO. The crystal shows off the silver wirework on the hammerhead
very well. The filagree in the bracers is just SOOO sweet. I dig the chain a lot too. Al in all an excellent piece…:+1:
