Hi guys,

It's been a long time I wanted to do this character designed by Keun Ju Kim in 3D, but I always have been intimidated by it so far. But I feel it could be the right time now, so let's try it

Here's the concept :



And here's a blockmesh :

Funky Bunnies

ooo subscribed, looks great so far man!

Tits

That's pretty fancy aldready, looking foward to see more!

Guedin

Thanks a lot for the support

Here's the face, with a quick polypaint, and some test for the hair, which is still super WIP

Guedin

Hi guys,
I tweaked a little bit the head, and I worked on the arm :

fatihG_

Sexy stuff man, I feel like the character could be a tad longer though.

seth.

damn Guedin, this is going to be ace! from your blockout I think that the body could do with being a litytle more waif like, thinner shoulders and a bit less on the hips....face is looking ace and the early hair test is excellent though....if you ever feel like sharing any tips on that then I will be first in line

Guedin

Thanks a lot for the input ! I'll try to fix the proportion before the next update

@Seth : I did a quick tuto for you, I don't think it's the best way to do this but I hope it can help you :

seth.

You are a star

I will give it a proper watch in the morning cos I'm crashing, but I wanted to say thank you as soon as I noticed it

Edit I'm watching it now anyway

EDIT 2 lofting along a spline....much much better than the way that I was doing it....thanks again for the tut

Sculptaur

Awesome work Guedin!

And thanks for the hair tutorial, time to switch back to 3DS Max I think...

Guedin

I'm glad the video has been useful
I tried to tweak a tiny bit the proportions, I hope it was for the better :

subed

Guedin

Thanks a lot

I worked on the torso :

spiderDude

Nice and clean!

Guedin

Hi guys, I'm almost done with the upper body :

X³²Lapis

Great Job so far Guedin! Awesome detail work!

Tits

This is looking amazing as usual, so much attention to details!!
Looking forward to see more awesome!

Fnitrox

Sir, you never ever cease to amaze me... the care and detail in your sculpts are simply a joy to look at.


Would it be possible to see you streamin or recording your process for say a piece of clothing or even a weapon or prop?

KristaW

Very inspirational. And I second Fnitrox on the process video. That would be amazing.

Fingus

Jesus christ this looks amazing. What is your process on the armor detail? Do you model it out in a root program like max/maya or is it all zbrush?

One thing that doesn't look to great though. The arms are really gnarly looking. I realize that they are pretty rough in the concept art, but I feel maybe you've taken it a bit too far and lost some of the femininity. Particularly they look a bit too thick and muscular even on a toned woman.

wow, what are your bpr settings? thats an amazing render

Guedin

Thanks a ton guys !
I forgot to set up a livestream for this but I promise I'll do it soon I the meantime, there should be a 8 hours workshop I did that will be available at zbrushworkshop soon, about my workflow to do armor stuff. I will keep you up to date

I also a did a quick gif to explain my render, I hope it'll help
As CurtisWS mentionned it, my custom matcap can be found there :

Leb

Thanks for all the info on your workflow! The details are amazing. Very inspiring.

Guedin

@Leb : Thanks, glad you like it

I tried to record myself while sculpting a piece of armor, but I deleted the file instead of saving it (Yep, that's how dumb I am )
So the only solution for me was to record it using the undo feature in zbrush. I hope it helps a little, I'll try to record myself again, and this time I'll pay more attention what livestream is trying to say me

0_0 the detail on the shirt is just fantastic. so clean

Guedin

Almost done with the sculpt, I'll just have to redo the arm and ears

ILLMATICC

Amazing work Guedin, can't wait to see it textured! I can already imagine its going to look fantastic

spiderDude

Nice! Very clean.

Popol

Yay, thanks for recording yourself while sculpting! It's always very interesting to be able to see someone's sculpting workflow, especially when it's that good haha.

gandoza

These look fantastic!

Suba

You sir, are awesome. That's impressive.

EmJaeR

Freaking sweet!!
I'm assuming the hair isn't finished yet? Also I know the hands are supposed to be demonish and they are wicked, but I feel it is feeling a wee manish. Anyways sweet work!!

Guedin

Thanks a lot guys
What do you think about the new proportion of the arm ? I tried to shrink a bit the forearm and make the finger longer

AtticusMars

I prefer the original version personally

I think you really need to do something about the shirt design though, the way the criss crossing pattern just linearly fades out looks bizarre

spiderDude

The new hand feels nice, but the new arm seems off to me...I feel that the old arm proportions fit better.

NyneDown

Wow, this is looking sick man! Looking at the ref, the upper arm is fairly thin so the way you have the bicep and that area in general right now seems a bit inflated and thick. Also the way the bicep meets the forearm right now feels a little too masculine. Softening that up might help. I think once you get that rabbit fur on her elbows, it will help sell it better.

Keep it up man! Thanks for posting those videos. That hair demo is awesome.

beta_channel

I've got to go with AtticusMars on this one. I prefer the old arms, the extra bulk made them feel...well, all demony. Granted, adding the fur type texture will probably bring back some form.

Are the nails hidden or is there another reason why you ditched the nails?

Guedin

Yep I think it makes sense, thanks for the help, I'll try to fix this for the next update ( although I'm not sure I'll change the fading pattern on the shirt, I like it even if it makes no sense at all )

@beta_channel : The nails are in a separated subtool, I just forgot to display it again after I tweaked the hands

timgrossmann

Wow, your work is truly amazing...

Hope you don't mind me asking but in the video of the sword handle there is this jump from kinda sketchy to really clean and hard edged at about 5:30...
Could you please explain what you did there ;D ?

Also, do you have some tipps on getting clean sculpts ?
My sculpts always look sketchy and i just can't get some clean work

Thanks, looking forward too more of your amazing work

PyrZern

Guedin, she looks great and awesome. And pretty complex too, with wristbands, belts, straps, guns and all that. Could you take a screenshot of how your subtools work ? An exploded shot will do. I 'm learning ZB, and I have problem determining if elbowguard should be same subtool as sleeves and/or if the shirt/jacket should be same subtool as the torso, and all that.

Thanks.

Guedin

@timgrossmann : Thanks man, For cleaning the mesh I used the hpolish brush. I love this brush ! About making clean sculpt, the claybrush is the brush I'm using most of the time. In fact, I tried to not use the smooth brush ( shift key ) too much and use the claybrush with light pressure instead and alternate with add and sub. I found that I got more control of the shape this way, and avoid bumpy issues that you could fin while trying to smooth a too high res mesh for exemple. I'm using the smooth brush at the end, when I need to polish everything.

@PyrZern : hey Pyr ! I wouldn't try to use the x-pose thing as I'm almost at 35 millions poly with 102 subtools I don't think my machine would like that.
All I can say is I'm using the most subtools I can. For exemple the body is sculpted nude and then I build the clothing and accessories around it in different subtools

Guedin

Alright guys, I tried to shrink down a bit the upper arm. I hope you'll like it better

crazyfool

She looks stunning!!! I think the issue is the bicep is running into the forearm when it should end before the elbow. Maybe balancing the forearm muscles could help aswell. The slimmer arms are looking really nice, maybe a bit more shape to the legs will look good too but upto you. Looking awesome

How do you make the smooth timelapse? Mines always really disorientating haha

PyrZern

I have a feeling her forearms should be a tad longer, so her wrist could be the same level as her pelvis.

Ps. You could take exploded shot with less subdiv level *hint hint wink wink*

Guedin

@Crazyfool : Good call about the bicep, I'll fix that thanks. About the timelapse, honestly I have no idea I feel like I'm lucky I guess
@PyrZern : The xpose worked finally, I hope it'll help

PyrZern

Sweeet. Thanks. That really drive the points home.

JacqueChoi

^_^ awesome work nick!

I get the feeling she would look more 'young' if her head were larger.

Not sure if you're trying to match the concept, but I think the eyes should also be wider apart with much larger pupils (the Tear Duct doesn't line up with the nostril in the concept, so it looks more 'anime'.


I preferred the limbs more 'girth'. But it looks good like that too.

Wishie

I feel that the hair could use more work. Just sharpen/polish it up a bit. It looks blobby in some areas. Every else is really well done with some lovely detail and the hair looks unfinished to me.

Loving how this work of yours turned out.

Scythe

I already said it but your are a beast man, love your style
