ZBrushCentral - Demon's Forge-Character Art

Sometimes as a character artist you come across work that just screams mastery, mastery that comes from an actual art school. Its stuff like this that makes me wonder what potentially I could be doing now, if I had an actual professor to guide me...

okay I lied

Clown

One more test before new sculpts

I PROMISE, no more tests, just new works, I'll be doing one tonight.

DoF Adjusted 

And an elephant

some more studio renders

now we're getting somewhere

and the dwarf which needs some tweaking.

digital studio

Just testing out my digital studio

how it looks in maya

A new model and a finishing piece for an older one

so updating my thesis, left me with little time to do much else unfortunately, But this past hour I cranked out a simple model and finished another.

The new model is a cartoony aging swimmer:

And To cap of the tutorial on the actual model itself, I finished the base model of the dwarf which I wasn't happy with until now. I don't know how long this friggin tutorial is going to be, but now im onto rendering and props..haha 

Lobsterman base shading

I decided in celebration of a new Air Conditioner (installed by yours truly...with help)  I would begin to shade the lobster man, and I recorded it as well.

I'll be putting that together along with the dwarf tutorial, maybe have a few going at the same time, I enjoy working on different projects though, it keeps me busy and yet entertained.

Dwarf Shader update

Put the Mental Ray fast Skin Shader on him (the previous images were enhanced with photoshop using Match color), and tweaked in to work with the leather as well. It was two hours of general tweaking and frustration but considering, I think Its going in the right direction, though I didn't record this session knowingly that I was experimenting, and didn't have a direction, when I do record it will appear much much smoother :P 

Lobsterman

haha Idk, about a 30 min quick sketch, I actually recorded it!  Ill try and color it tomorrow, but I'll be out most of the day.

Edit now base colored, no shading yet:

line sketch

now we're getting somewhere

Like another program finally!

Finally broke into maya with my dwarf.  Or I could say my dwarf penetrated maya haha (so dirty)

anywho heres where Im at

And from zbrush

Tutorials back on track!
