Zenoth, the alien from Jupiter

love the modeling and the textures!! great work!

Hey great work. Why topo gun and not zbrush for the retopology?

Hi there, sorry but I’ve been a little busy in the last days!
@slashpot: Many thanks man, altough I hardly see myself as a ā€œmasterā€ or as an ā€œartistā€ā€¦ It’s so difficult to define what is art or who is an artist to me, for now I just think to myself as a generalist specialized in modeling and sculpting…definitely I try to push my skills and learn from the art masters from the past but the chasm between my ā€œartworkā€ and those masterpiece is huge, not just technically but especially in the message and purpose I think.
Here in ZBC there is plenty of good works and people who look at sculpting as a way to express themselves and technically being very close to what I can call a sculptor (Patroc, Selwy, Scott Eaton, Antropus just for name the ones that comes to my mind first). As you said there is a combination of factor that makes you read their models in a special way that go beyond the mesh itsef, and this is really close to what happens to me while looking at those incredible statues in the museums. Through the sculpture, in the gestures, in little detials, in almost imperceptible curvature changing…in all this you can read a message, a statement, a way to talk to you.
This is a very fascinating, complex and interesting talk also because you miss an important piece in your vision: the work and the patrons :).
But I think this talk itself could fill a whole forum of ideas just because there is so many different point of view…
The good thing is that thankfully place like ZBC exists and the chance to get connected all over the world is priceless.
Thanks again!
@designingpatrick: I find Zbrush retopology being very good, I used it for different works before this project and it works just fine. I heard people talking very well about Topogun and so I tried out myself. You have a feeling to be in a modeling app and you have less ā€œclicksā€ compared to zb so I find it faster. In addition you have some standard modeling tool like ring connect, bridge, relax…usefull tools in the retopology process. In the other hand zb retopology workflow is very smooth being integrated in the app.

Many thanks to everyone :wink:
