First Zbrush Creature/Alien WIP (Image Heavy)

KyleJoe · Oct 2010

Hi guys, first time post. This is my creature/alien design I have been working on for awhile here. I have gone threw a few design changes and I currently like the one I have. I am currently doing some poly paint on it and I'm just about ready to bake. So I was wondering what you guys think of it and if you have any suggestions on colour and if any of my proportions are off. So here are the Images I'll upload my concepts when I get home. (@work right now)

UPDATE! here are the concepts

And here is the poly paint so far. First time using poly paint as well. So far I know that it could use some lighter colors right now its a little dark.

Is it just me or do his legs seem incredibly short? And are those ribs on his torso? If so there should be some sort of sternum in the front. Otherwise looking like a good start, somewhat blobby in parts though, could be good to sharpen it up, especially around the head piece and torso.

Thanks, and yeah the back is pretty blobby. About the the ribs it's supposed to be like carapace, but it would be it's ribs. But I will go about attaching them. as for the legs I based the creature off human size except I extended the arms a bit and made the hands larger. I'll got about the changes though.

Needs more silhouette.

Thanks pangarang! I was actually talking to a guy at work about the silhouette and that it needed some more defining features.

Hey guys just a little update. I think I'm going to add a little bit of some white and I think it will be good for a base any way. Just need to bake out and make a low poly.

Hey thanks istismario. Well this isn't my first Zbrush sculpt it's just my first character that I will complete. But as for the model I'll go about changing the calf muscles and adjust the back. Thanks for the help!

Hey guys here is another little update finished the low poly currently sitting at 8992 faces. I have all the baking done and now it's just refining the the maps. Maps are currently at 2048.
Any suggestions?
