This is an older monster I'm dusting off to donate to the Bad King monster brush pack.  Bad King is an Australian artist who has put together some great resources for the zbrush community. If you have not checked out his site, and you like Zbrush, then do yourself a favor and click this link now!

Spent a little time in the Zbrush hanout last night, actually using Zbrush!  As usual, the people in the room were really cool, and we had a great time.  This is what I made:

Another pass at one of the gramps sketches. Itching to get back to the sculpture now. The music is again by Ms. Lauren Hill from her unplugged CD. Don't bootleg it, buy it. It's too good not to have IMHO.

In trying to push this concept forward more, I want to start doing some modeling on the character, and continue the design in three dimension.   I will upload sessions of my progress to this post.

Session One: Blocking in the face

Session Two: Torso block-in.

A small update to an older painting.  A lot of fun to do, but man it's a struggle.  I have to paint more.  A.B.L. = Always Be Learning.

Visualarium final assignment

Share on Tumblr

So,  this semester we had three character assignments.  The first was a video game character (see last post).  The second was a cartoon character (see two posts ago) and the third is a visual effects character.  This is my visual effects character sculpt.

The idea with all three characters is you're not making the production model, but instead making concept art which drive the look of the production model in 3D.

*EDIT*** I started adding some simple polypainting in Zbrush.  Rather than make a new post, I'll just update this one. Click the image below for larger view.

In the previous post, the old man was from the animated film character design project. This character is from the game design project. It was fun to make.

Man, it's been a while since I posted anything!  This is a quick bust I did using Zbrush 4R4.  The new retopo tools are pretty neat.
