Water leaper W.I.P.(final texture:page 3, wing paint tutorial: page4)

Next step: texturing :slight_smile:

1st off GREAT looking model. It really doest have that zbrush look. Not that its bad to have that look, but sometimes you can just tell what it has been modeled with. But I to was working on a bat like creature but was having proglems with the wings. Can you give me a clue on how you did them. Or did you do them in a different program and bring them into Z.B.? I can see how to do it in other modelers but not with zbrush I was trying with the zsphears but didnt have luck. Well any pointers all you great artist could provide would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks to everyone here this group seems to be one of the best when it comes to helping others out! Thats hard to find!!

A little help for you:Quich help.TXT

Texture step 01

Wow thanks for the pointer on making the wings… I was trying that but I must have been missing a step somewhere?? Wanted to say thank you for the time it took to give me that help!

PS looks like the textures are looking nice… would be cool to make a hairy more bat like one… well thats what I am going to try and do… like a flying giant rat. :wink: I’ll post it if it’s worth looking @ at all

PSS… EVERY DAMN PROGRAM SHOULD HAVE A SCIPTING LIKE ZBRUSH… IT WOULD BE SO COOL TO WATCH MAYA OR MAX DOING THE STEPS SOMEONE ELSE HAS DONE AND THEN YOU CAN PICKUP WHERE YOU WANT TO IN THE LESSON… IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD PAUSE AND REVERSE THE SCRIPT IN ZBRUSH… BUT THAT MUSH BE IN V.2.5 :slight_smile:

:EDIT: I see the step I was doing that was keeping me from getting wings is I was trying to use more then one zsphear in the length of the wings… if you use just two one to start one to end when you delete it well part of it you delte when you get that ghosting look but when you make the adaptive skin it make a flat surface. like the fish fin exmple I guess. Well I hope everyone understands what I am rambling about. I am falling in love with Zbrush… big time!!

Excellent modeling and posing and the lighting is perfect :+1:

Inspiring work!

This is fantastic Qn!! I really am enjoying watching the progression on this. Thanks also on the script on the wings. It has helped me very much!

I still dont under stand them zsphears yet, I see models that others created that I just done understand how it’s done… I guess in time I will get it…

Final textured model. :smiley:

2000x1240

nice! :+1: I’d vary the skin spec on the final as my only crit

edit: ack i was looking at page 2, ok for the current final it’s much better, although still some tiny areas of higher spec over detail can go a long way
