Love the Chinese lion, how did you do the texture/shaders?

[dtschultz]

Man, I love your work. Such amazing character and sense of detail. I am curious how you made those detailed alphas? They have such nice gradients, and I’m just curious if you made those by hand? Or found them?

[xuzhelong]

The alpha was made by ZGrab function with a isolate model that I created.

[dtschultz]

Oh, wow! Ok. That explains it. Man, that alpha that says dragons4 must have taken some time. I wonder, how did you break that into pieces to make your alpha? Thanks for taking the time to answer!

[NelsonAnimation]

Thank you so much for showing your alphas and that’s some spectacular work btw. I wouldn’t have thought of using alphas to create the hair swirls. Much obligedsmall_orange_diamond:D

Hi Zhelong

I love your work! You make the sculpting seem so easy when you break it down in the one image tutorials. Good job!

I’m also starting to use keyshot. what material did you use for the ceremic lion? It looks incredible!
