mudbox saturday sculpting wip

foreverendering

So I was going to sit down today and finish the base modeling for my pig pilot model, but couldn't get in the mood. just felt like doing some freestyle sculpting instead.

I saw that there's a mudbox sculpting comp and thought it might be fun to enter, so I downloaded one of the basemeshes, the four-armed creature. This is what I ended up with so far. Some areas, hands especially are all jacked so I'll try to fix them next time I work on this guy.



Thanks for any crits

Sweet!

On the lower arms make the knuckles quite big so that you imply that it uses those arms like a gorilla does. Also add more mass to the forearm like a gorilla.

Pretty nice sculpting. I really like the bottom/lower arms they seem to fit the body more than upper arms on the (back view). The upper arms look nice on the front view though. The elbow on the upper arm is too pointy. Looks good so far.

That's a really small loincloth. poor guy

Thanks for the replies guys, I decided to edit him a bit more to go in a different direction. It's still really rough, just figuring out the volumes right now

I edited the first post to reflect the changes

much better now

Thanks!

Here is a small update, did a little bit on the arms / shoulder area, plus my new concept for the head





Hands are still messed up, didn't get that far down the arm yet

Japhir

That some beautiful sculpting dude.

Sweet update, dude. I really like what you've done with the skin on the arms. Its shaping up really well and look forward to seeing more updates.

That smiley face is awesome man! Great perspective on that. One eye is bigger than the other though.

Oh, the model looks cool too.

Thanks for your comments!

Another small update, head redesign. Didn't quite finish the ears and the horns are just placeholders to see what it might look like. I'll have to sculpt the real horns out of mudbox primitives. I'd like to add a tongue too

Looking awesome, like the direction you're heading with your detailing. What are you doing with the back?

And he needs a big ol' schlong.

Kayamate

aaw! What a happy fellow, i like him . i too have large ears, so i really feel that i can identify with your mesh. have you thought about giving him a fat tail?

foreverendering

Thanks guys,

Eric;

I have some plans for the back but its really rough right now, looks pretty crap so once I can get around to focusing on it I'll post a shot from that angle

Kayamate;

I hope you also wouldn't relate to a fat tail, otherwise you were quite a peculiar baby

Here's some images, just doodlin around today. Thinking about giving him some cyborg areas. This is what happens when you don't have a concept heh!

I wish I could model the techy parts in max but that's part of the challenge I guess... I will definitely need to subdivide one more time + locally from there if possible

I'll get to those blobby arms and legs eventually

pior

Noice! A taaad blobby for my taste tho :P I like the way the thighs look at the moment ... readable yet not over the top - wich gives a nice feel for skin thickness. Just my 2c!

Rwolf

pretty sweet so far!

Emil Mujanovic

This is really starting to come together, dude. Stunning work.

Yeah, it's too blobby. Actually the more I look at it, the more I hate it. heh!

I'll see what I can do with it after christmas break with fresh eyes.

dom

looking good dude. can't wait to see your next update.
