Wulf's Improvement Thread

Wulf

Hello everyone, I am making this thread in order to have a place to store most of my work as I learn 3D. Any critique available, whether it be good or bad, is always welcomed and highly appreciated.

I am currently learning High-Poly modeling techniques and sculpting assets in Zbrush.

Medieval Axes Concept by Randy Cushman

For your last highpoly work check this script:

I use it every time when edgeloop needs to be a perfect circle

The axes lack some imperfections.
Like chipped away pieces of metal, scratches,...
But appart from that they look good, I don't see any pinching or other weird stuff.

Wulf

Oh wow, that looks pretty useful. I will try that out next time. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing, that will be sooo useful!

Great stuff wulf, keep it up!

BeardyDan

Nice script!

Also High poly stuff is looking pretty tidy, especially the axes. I agree with elias though you should look at adding more detail like damage, imperfections. Make them look a bit used or like a blacksmith crudely bashed one out.

Yeah, I noticed that. I do plan to go back to them individually and taking them further like sculpting, baking, texturing, etc. But for now, I just wanted to try my hand at modeling them plain.

Thanks for the advice though!

Wulf

Starting on a new study I guess. I am going to try to create this asset based from the game Halo 4.



I started off with a very rough block-out. No where near done at the moment. I am going to try a paint-over to lock down the ideas I want before advancing any further. I am still playing around with the proportions, so those aren't set in stone just yet.

Wulf

This is how far I have reached by the end of the first day. I still have a lot of general block out to finish.

Credit to choosing such a complex and yet clearly drawn concept. Keep it going! (watching)

Wulf

Trying to work on this whenever I have time. Pushing the blockout even further before I actually dive into the details. Parts colored in white still need to be worked on. Also, a few pieces are missing that I plan to add later on.

Wulf

Currently working on a piece that is heavily based on high-poly modeling techniques. I am doing this more out of casual practice than anything. UNSC Pump put on hold for now.

Where I am at so far:

looking good mate, topo is clean as always

This is a re-post from my latest piece from the Weekly Hard Surface Challenge. Please provide critiques whenever possible. I am always looking to improve.

maybe you should leik make some kinda intersecton or raised up part where bolts and the things they are bolted to connect.
