Hey,

I figured since I keep jumping between projects I'd create a thread to keep it all in.

Recent renders of old high poly models. I ws playing with rendering settings and got some interesting results.

Recent mud stuff that I am working on, all subject to change

mikebart · Apr 2007

nice, are these all mudbox? the first one is especially cool

Gav · Apr 2007

Cool stuff man, always inspired when I look at your work. Especially love your monsters.

good to see you get everything under one roof, so to speak. i enjoy the figurine-type renders, though they ever-so-briefly tricked me into thinking you had gotten some 3d prototyping done of your old DomWar beastie, which would be awesome

hope you get some more goodies up here soon!

conte · Apr 2007

cawbra guy is awesome, really tight detailing.
Also godfather looks cool, but a bit unfinished.
Merg is cool, really nice face.

Spark · Apr 2007

Awesome work man, love the new stuff. Keep it up, and lets start up that thursday lunch modeling thing we talked about.

Kickass work Tim. Inspiring!
The guy with the huge horns and bone hooks for hands is my favourite, I love what you've done with the muscles and flesh surface.

spacemonkey · May 2007

Been doing some reworking of the texture on this guy. I wasnt very happy with the way it turned out first time around its a simple way for me to practice balancing things out more.

Thanks guys
gauss I'm thinking of getting one done for my birthday, either that or I get some latex mask making equipment!

conte yeah the human face is early.. I always feel less motivation to work on humans - I think because I do so much on them at work.

Sparks, maybe a sunday speed doodle ?

andym12 · May 2007

That's a freakin awesome character, the texture looks a little bland... but cool. Reminded me of cyberdemon from D3 a little, certainly a good thing.

Xaltar · May 2007

Looking good as always dude. More!!!

Kevin Johnstone · May 2007

love the superzombienazi and merg!

spacemonkey · May 2007

thanks guys, fixed up the shape of the head. I wanted to make sure I was considering bone and muscle and fat as I sculpted. I killed a bit of the nice detail on teh damaged side of the face but I'll be working to bring that back. Lots of roughness still.:)

Emil Mujanovic · May 2007

Awesome work as expected dude!

hawken · May 2007

about the scarface guy;

he's looking amazing currently. Although scars like this would have made mincemeat of his muscle tissue, causing the left hand side of his face to sag a lot lower than the right hand side, especially in the eye and jowl area.

If you look at famous people who have had facial injuries (like Takeshi Kitano) you can get a good idea of before and after. He suffered injury to one side of his face in a car crash, and as a result the reconstructed surgery left him with very lazy features on that side.

great work keep it up

spacemonkey · May 2007

Thanks casey,

Hawken yeah I'll look in to that!

It need the love

Ruz · May 2007

Good stuff as usual.I like the scar face guy , but the 'belly teeth guy' is the best IMHO

spacemonkey · May 2007

thanks Ruz

So two roughs of ideas I'm playing with. Myself and a few friends at work are considering putting a prototype together and I wanted to shape a generic zombie soldier out.

Pavel · May 2007

ohh...very cool style...i see in second concept some nazi uniform elements....i like this....

andym12 · May 2007

Oh man, that second one brought to life would be amazing. Very cool style.

conte · May 2007

nice zombies, i like paintings, Tim.

Honolulu_Ninja · May 2007

Nice, nazi monstrousities can never go wrong

They remind me a bit of worst case scenario

Pavel · May 2007

HOlyyy!this links is cool...thanks...

this movie really coming In 2009?

mvelasquez · May 2007

you never fail to impress sir!

spacemonkey · May 2007

Thanks guys, not nazi zombs but I certainly like the german uniforms - way more style to them than others

I need to crank out some other idea's, I feel these are very safe yet fulfil the criteria we need for out prototype, but it never hurts to explore more ideas.

oh yeah and I have seen the trailers for that film! I hope they can make it.

Sa74n · May 2007

wow that is all sorts of awesome! as are the nazi zombies.

spacemonkey · May 2007

Thanks Sa74n

well slow times, but I was planning on doing more work on the old Brood and a low res version of superzombies face.. but theres a new cgchat comp that Askhat was made me aware of

Its a head/bust sculpt so it should be quick and painless fun! weeeeeeeeeeee

RazorBladder · May 2007

Soul is lookin rough these days...

Joao Sapiro · May 2007

Awesome stuff tim ! really inspiring

simplyrude · May 2007

These are awesome Spacemonkey, I love the design. Great work compadre!

spacemonkey · Jun 2007

I've been pretty lazy, didnt do anything for a while.. till todaY!

nneds plenty of work, the whole belt thing is too low.. buts its a concept sketch so its all about figuring that stuff out

MoP · Jun 2007

Woot, Sarge!

Snowfly · Jun 2007

that's cool spacemonkey, i should look into concepting like that. even for a casual gamer like me, i recognized the guy straight away!

conte · Jun 2007

haha yeah, sarge indeed=)
kinda from arshlevon's base?

spacemonkey · Jun 2007

yeah man arsh's base is a primitive in mudbox

hah, never fire up mud without it!

still figuring it out

D4V1DC · Jun 2007

Looking good, keep it up...
Sarge owns ju!

Your mudboxing is eye candy... shway sexy! (translation: Love your work)

The_Synj · Jun 2007

You really need to send ID, or Epic some calls. You have a great talent for horror creatures like in most of their games. I would love to see you make a small animated short using some of these monsters..perferably a animated horror

struve · Jun 2007

Oh yeah

, Sarge FTW!!

spacemonkey · Jul 2007

still mo to add, I want to make plenty of detail in max and then take it to mudbox for extra. I lost some of the yummy small/mid shapes... might have to push them back into the mesh

Ferg · Jul 2007

comin along great man. I can see how that 3d concept would really be helpful, I may have to try that for my next model. Great ratio of large/medium/small details on the armor. Fitting the tiny ultra-complex small details in while still having nice big readable forms. Very good sir.

Only crit so far is he's got some pretty hardcore crotch folds.

diZzyWalnut · Jul 2007

looks nice , I'm always fan of a stuff like this.

spacemonkey · Jul 2007

Also if you want to check the workflow watch Ian Joyners Gnomon Dvd's. They gave me lots of cool idea's!

MoP · Jul 2007

frickin' awesome Tim, this one is going to be great

Yeah , I know this DVD of Ian Joyners , I think that I'm buying this one as a next.

Last week I've bought this 3 DVD , realize by autodesk
with Arman Akopian from UBI SOFT.
I've found all what I've needed ( for this time)....all is under 3DS MAX, that's why Ian Joyners's DVD is next to see some workflow with ZBRUSH.
