I guess I'll have to jump on the bandwagon and pick up zbrush finally. You convinced me.
zbrush is fun.. this could replace my sketch pad.. so made a little goblin type dude..the base mesh is really simple i started with a really neat FREE procedural face creator called..Facemaker uk.. here be a link.. http://www.scriptspot.com/scripts/web_upload/Bruce Forel/facemaker_uk.zip
its really nice because it makes a base mesh with so few polies and pretty much all quads..prefect for zbrushing.. and the edgeloops are in pretty good places..
so here is my starting mesh..i tweeked it a bit out of facemaker just to give it stylised proportions..
and here is the Zbrushed one... 3 1/2 hours for this dude...
Nice litte script.
2 1/2 hours start to finish.. that includes the tweeks to the low..
here be the wire..
and here be the Zness
Also, I applied to work at mythic a couple days ago.
Also, do you happen to use msn,aim,gtalk, or anything else? I'd like to talk to you about your zbrushings if you dont mind.
ghost, just go to http://www.scriptspot.com and write "face maker" in the search bar, top right. Then you will find it.
That is the most awesome thing for Max I've seen in forever.
I nearly poo'ed myself.
tell me or I will send you some pee in the mail and then you will have to smell it again.
lucus when you have your model in max take and break teh uvs up in chunks, these chunks will be your quick select sets i zbrush, the way you make this work is take and place one chunk in the normal uv area (inside the lil box) take the next chunk and move it over outside the box to the left, place the pieces tiled like shown in this immage,
this should split your model into colored quick groups you can ctrl-shift on a pieces and hide everything except that pices,
so as for your eye question, you just hide all but the eyes, then ctrl drag a maxk box around the eyes, ctrl shift click on the canvas and it will unhide your model, now you can paint without having to worry about messing up the eyes,
it seems you have to tunr of the mask before you can sudvivide you model
hope this works for you if you have any questions,, just wander over to my cube in the morn
if your eyeballs are seperate meshes when you export then..
just go in your Tool rollout.. and then goto polygroups and then hit Autogroups... now any seperate meshes are different groups in zbrush.. done!! then do you can hide them or mask them or whatever..

that big goofy tooth in the middle is going to be offset in the final piece.. when i do my asymmetry pass..
i've often wondered where did brocks head go when venom opened up his mouth like that

I always just assumed it was, ya know...a comic book. A dude is covered in a living alien costume..so why the hell am I worried about the realism of his misplaced mandibles?
Arsh: Awesome stuff. Im having loads of fun with this plugin & zbrushing some heads!
I think he could use some more jaw-muscle/tendon definition and more/more-voluminous folds around that huge "grin" of his.
N30, me and sam have the latest laptops running 6600 cards and pentium M chips. They blow away similar desktop systems. Sam's is clocked a bit faster than mine, but I can handle 2-3 million tris before it starts to chug. Something about the great architecture of the new laptops with the pentium M that just scream with high poly models.
Venum is looking pimp man. How are you coping without the cintiq?

He actually merges with the symbiont, that is his head. I'm such a dork.
Looks great!

I think you should re-read and apply this critique.

Why's there this assumption that it's Brock also? The symbiont was also part of Peter for a while first. (yeah, I'm a dork also)
i dont know if i wall go back to venom.. if i do i will definaly take the crit into consideration
i smell multiple chins :?
