I'm working on a comic and I wanted to get a better sense of the characters. So I've begun sculpting them in zbrush to turn them around. Heres is one of the main characters I did last night, Gainer (also featured below on the cover of Gimbal). I'll be using these for reference while I draw the comic.
And I started with a sphere, That's right, Wynia, no base mesh.
... Of coarse the topology is a disaster...
Wow, really nice design. It's slightly worrying that he has no eyelids... lol
ReplyDeleteDude, Andrew, thanks for checking out my stuff. Your modeling is awesome!
ReplyDeleteYeah, you're right about the eyelids. In the comic I'll draw them in. but for the reference I just wanted them out of the way.
Your art is amazing! All these works are gorgeous! very nice!
ReplyDeleteQuick question: I'm one of those people that went for a "real job" instead of art school and now only draw in my free time when The Man cuts me loose. How hard is Z brush to pick up for digital sculpting--how steep is the learning curve for someone not doing it full time? I have no plans to become a 3D genius or rigger or animator...but 3d sculpting like your head model would be awesome.
ReplyDeleteZ-brush is one of the more intuitive 3D programs, but like any discipline it only gives back what you put into it. As far as a learning curve, I jumped right in and got my hands dirty. I was turning out head sculpts the first night. Here is my first attempt:
