Prop practice - Epic Bow

lukazguzman

Hey there!
I started a new prop. I wanted to make some cool new prop out of some interesting concept art. So I found in a thread here this concept:

From Arixxle



I'm using it to practice some more Zbrush, and then Substance Designer (from baking to full texturing). I'll be posting the progress here in the hopes of getting some C&C!
Thanks!

great start buddy, brave to go full ZB on that

lukazguzman

Thank you!!
For me how to work it was a quick desition, basically because I felt the concept to be mostly 'organic' so I thought making the whole thing is 3Dsmax would not give me as much freedom... But now I'm spending a bunch of time flattening faces, defining lines, and things like that... so i'm thinking I probably went the wrong way?
Well... How would you do it??

retopo this sculpt and add control loops to make it a hard surface subdivision mesh ?

You mean panel loops?? Mmh... I googled it a bit and I need to look into how to use them for hard surface modelling. I'm gonna check them out..

Well, well, well! after so much work, and applying to companies, and moving, and so much to do! I finally made the time to get back to this bow! Finally I can update something in here!




Now I need to get to do the low-poly and baking! C&C most welcome!
