Yvan… un-employment and my business going down the drain due to the crazy affrimative action and BEE laws forced me to do something, so a blessing in disguise… at least I am not begging, stealing, protesting etc… just look at the news.

Blessed with a PC and ZBrush…

Go Well! and remeber to always enjoy what your doing no matter what the challenge may be… I skipped out on University due to our crazy War back then, but even that had lessons and learning involved… my bothers in arms also supply me with constant projects…

Great job, congrats! :+1:

Very nice work!

I think Modo’s splash-kit would have helped immensely. It would have probably shaved production time. And I think it’s rendering would have looked even more awesome, light refraction and all.

But Zbrush is definitely indispensable in work like this, no doubt.

5 stars!

Just a little workflow of the horse render!
concept.jpg
as per the last ad, this was the sketch supplied!
image-04.jpg
asways bets to just rough out a shape or something to work with and impoort into z, from there its
quick to rough out anyshape with zsphere’s and get the pose down!
image-07.jpg
this was the final shot we used for the advert!
image-09.jpg
we liked the horse posing in this picture and worked over it to keep that dynamic run cycle,
using zsketching to start filling out the horse!
screen-grab.jpg
adding much more detail in the horse and thinking about the water direction and drops of the surface, always using real water reference images to scuplt from!

using a rough render of the horse just to position and sketch out what we thought would work for the BG! once that got approved, we started sculting all the elements in maya and detailing in z!
image-13.jpg
this was the first test render of where we were headed!

building all the elements in the BG! wip

Jip Wayne… one has given up when you stop learning… Never stop learning, my motto…!

Great post, lovely. I really like how you’ve harmonized and equalized the tonal range between models and virtual set.

Good to see sum work from SA …

#37

Awesome works…! Looking forward to seeing your render setup, shaders for this one. I guess a lot of post work in photoshop was done as well to get that nice breakup in the water droplets that would be too tedious to do in zbrush
