Excellent piece. Did you do the toon render in ZBrush?

@gabo1991 - Thank you very much Paul, really glad you like it and for commenting in my thread and the heads up. :slight_smile: Yes the ToonShading Ones are created inside the BPR Render of ZBrush. Weirdly comped inside of Photoshop.
I also tried to GoZ the shader from ZBrush to Keyshot but the result was definantly not the same and imo I like the ZBrush look of it way better. I also wanted to mention because lot of people were asking if I use kitbash or any Curve Brushes.
This good night doodle was created with DynaSphere Base - Dynamesh, Sculptris Pro, ArrayMesh, Snakehook, Curvetube brush, ZRemesh.

…little midnight doodling…he’s not in a good mood :slight_smile:

Quick breakdown of the workflow:

  • Started with DynaSphere
  • Mostly Using Dynamesh combination with Sculptris Pro
  • ZRemeshed
  • Brushes used: Move Brush, Smooth Brush, Snakehook, CurveTube Brush, Dam Standard, ClayTubes, ClayBuildup <-- these are my main brushes for creation
  • No alphas used for detail creation
    -Array Mesh
  • ZModeler

Another dump of my good night doodles, we are going to start with Venom - Midnight Doodle.
Wrapping up some midniight doodles to focus on the ZBrush Summit… I made two versions of with skin layering but it should have been done more precisely.

Definantly one of my favourite creatures in the marvel universe.

Hello everyone :slight_smile:

Another Midnight Doodle --> This times its Pennywise from Stephen Kings IT!

Concept of the Head is Based by Mike Frachnicha, his work is really awesome and super creepy.
Please check out his work @mikefrachnicha
it was really fun to block this one out as a midnight sketch.
It was created assymetrical which was kind of fun but I already see quite lots of problems within the likeness of the original image. Definantly considered as a rough concept sculpt and after comping and rendering it, the shaders bother me quite a lot but well… :slight_smile:
For more images please check them out on arstation:

Also I have uploaded a Video of the Venom I did, there was an Motion Graphic Artist who made a really great version of my venom in motion and I would like to also mention his name here. Please give him a follow and look at his amazingness @laughinggremlin on instagram:

Any comments and feedback is always much appreciated :slight_smile:

This does not really fit into my Dark-Universe Thread, but I am just going to dump it into here.

Wanted to share some old work I have done in Mid 2014 for Berlin based company called “Staramba SE” (https://www.staramba.com/)

Main resposbilities was to resculpt the provided 3d print and clean it up aswell as resculpting quite a lot of bits, making lowpoly and creating textures and cleaning up textures. They were scanned/captured with there own inhouse 3DPrinter using Agisoft Software and printed 27cm/11inches tall as figurines and statues. Was a fun freelance gig work and the end quality was really crisp! These are quick screengrabs out of Marmoset with just an Albedo applied.
Staramba has updated their complete pipeline and making astonishing 3d human likenesses and scans from famous Soccer Clubs, Stars, Toys etc. with the Unreal Engine.

Creature Mech Design final submission to end the year 2018.
2018 has been a really great, rough and busy year in terms of personal life and professional work.
Moving away from London and Germany, all the way to Los Angeles with my workstation in the plane, ZBrush Summit which was a once in a lifetime experience and creating over a dozen personal sculpts, almost loosing my head not finding an apartment and due to some major cultural shocks.
I think we can succesfully end this year and start off 2019

Creature Mech Design final submission to end the year 2018.

Please check out the Artstation Link for More Images and a small ZBrush 2018 Sculptris Pro Breakdown:
Conclusion out of using a Sculptris Pro Workflow within ZBrush 2018:
Plan was to create a Production Ready Worfklow with Sculpris Pro, since I really enjoy the function of having
the control to paint in detail where its needed and paint out areas which do not need any Area of Detail.
The overall process was really creative and fun, but it sometimes slowed down my machine due to Memroy Issues.And one thing I find hard it to keep in mind you sort of have to paint in your detail areas in first, to be able to store morph
targets or layers, because if you paint additional detail, the vertex count changes so your morph is lost!
So its not really non-desctructive. But overall for concepting I think its one of the best additions to ZBrush 2018!

Happy new year everyone and stay safe and happy sculpting :slight_smile:

very cool. Thank you for posting.

.

There is no better way to start off the year 2019 on your first day back to work with a TopRow on ZbrushCentral.
I can not thank the whole Team enough of Pixologic and ZBrushcentral for the love and support. The Zbrush Summit last year was a lifetime experience, meeting so many great artists and being part of this community onsite!

There is no passionated community out there!

@Paul - Wow thank you so much this is breathtaking to start off the year like this Paul, thank you so much for the support:+1:small_orange_diamond:)
@Vijay - Thank you so much Vijay buddy, glad you like it man:)

Again happy new year off to another year of new creations and learning experiences.
