Re: WIP Natalie Portman Model
Even though i do agree zbrush has made the pipeline alot more different than it used to be, i would definitely recommend poly/box/native modeling to a beginner or someone who wants to get into character art etc. I feel that native modeling really requires a good understanding of underlying volume,mass,planes etc and it is… -
Re: Character Concept Voting for August 2014
@pryzern: could be a head band, but the color being so similar screams permanent. Maybe she's like a rabbit and has a small round tail that we can't see? Can't wait to see what won...wanna start early so I actually have time to texture if not maybe try a Zbrush run at it. A friend just gave me this book for my birthday… -
Re: Help/ advice someone wanting to buy my artwork for their ESPORTS team
Cool design, not surprised you'd attracted interest. So here's a basic formula similar to when I worked as a portraitist come street artist way back when. Now important to remember when calculating the cost of a piece is by paying yourself a reasonable rate, on top of adding the cost of materials and that becomes your… -
Re: Character sculpt
Thanks man! To be honest I haven't thought about the hips yet, but you made a really good point! Ill try to sort them out now. Also for the traps. I did have them bigger, but it seemed too much. Ill work on it too. As long as the head is ok. It did worry me a little. I' am aware of the anatomy4sculptors site, but tend to… -
Re: Migrating to Zbrush from Mudbox
Mudbox is definitely easier to get into, mainly because the UI is more similar to Max or Maya (than ZBrush) and will feel familiar to those users, but I'd recommend trying to get upto speed with ZB as I feel its leagues ahead of Mudbox in what it can do. The only thing I can really think of in terms of perks Mudbox has… -
Re: Texture Transfer (Hi-Res/Low-Res) ZBrush/Maya/Topogun
Great question GhostSmoke. You sound like me, afraid to to move forward in fear of messing something up and not proceeding correctly. I too had a question along those lines. I know Shane Olson has a GREAT tutorial on the process of taking a hires model with polypaint out of Zbrush, redoing the topology in 3D Coat($99 aint… -
Re: Sketchbook: HarlequinWerewolf (SkullCat3D)
Good for you .Definitely traditional sculpting can teach you a lot more then digital tutorials also if I ware you I would prioritize what important for me as for university schedule goes and not spend much time on "required subject" that I have not interest in (for example if you want to be character artist doesn't make… -
Re: opinions about the Cintiq?
I agree that having it on your lap isnt an option, but you can flatten it out to lie almost entirely horizontal, less than 10% incline. and honestly youd never need any more than that. The added advantage of the base is that you can spin it a full 180 degrees as you would do when youre working with a sketchbook. A tablet… -
Re: Realtime Character - "Beat"
Beat Takeshi! i think it's great, though unlike your elf that you posted, the one problem that sticks out to me (other than the teeth being a different style like MoP mentioned) is that the head seems to have a lower resolution texture than it should. with such a dark suit texture (while minimal i think it works) i think… -
