Hi! This is my first work on Polycount and third work in ZBrush. Care for eyes bleed!

zzMedVeDzz

Here is some ref.

zzMedVeDzz

Here is first WIP. I did body base and head.

zzMedVeDzz

Started do body. I will return to the face latter.

zzMedVeDzz

I added some cloth.

The chest/stomach area is looking a little to long. In the reference the character is about 3 heads tall. Try to get the shape and size of the head down first and then use that to figure out the proportions for the rest of the body. You've definitely got a good start for begin new to zbrush though. Just stay in the low subdivisions till you are happy with the proportions. It'll make life much easier.

zzMedVeDzz

Thank you for a feedback. I have only 2 subdiv lvls right now. I've already cut him today, looks like it is not enough)

zzMedVeDzz

Some proportion tweaks.

zzMedVeDzz

New WIP. Shoes and hands were added.

zzMedVeDzz

Added some details for cloth. Started hair job.

zzMedVeDzz

I added more details for cloth, finished hair, sleeves, gloves, bags, shoes. Also I changed material.
I will start do weapon and belt next.

zzMedVeDzz

I Did some polypainting and tweaks to armory.

I laughed so hard XD
Painting, textures and retopology are next.

zzMedVeDzz

Hi there! My first retop attempt



+ 3D viewer testing.

Some stuff still need to fix and redo.

zzMedVeDzz

Almost finished retop.

Total: 8.8k faces and 9.1k vertices

This is my first retop ever, so I dont know is it OK or not =(

zzMedVeDzz

I finished texturing. No miracle here: I know nothing about handpainted textures



I never draw textures by hand, so I must say it went much better, than I expected and than it should be)


UVs are not optimal and I will leave them as is, but I understood why people are packing their map so hard.


Here is final 3D with textures on it:

Final post gonna be soon.

zzMedVeDzz

This is it! Final post. Time to gather stuff together.

This is a highpoly model:



This is a lowpoly model:



This is a texture map:



This is an enveronment shot:



This is 3D turnaround:

This is my first 3D competition, so it is more about getting experiance. Here is some things I learned:

- ZBrush sculpting
- basics of retopology
- cross prog-s work
- game character pipeline
- basics about UVs space (>_<)
- basics about hand painting (>_<)

I hope it will help in future. About future, after this job is done, I gonna start sculpting Skullheart from Skullgirls game. Happy New Year and Merry Christmas for all!

P.S. I hope Redeemed Riven(D_Wall), School time Ahri(future-fiction), Caitlyn(Dmitry Grebenkov) or Daughter of the Sun Leona(Hellstern) will won prises
