Know it's been awhile since i posted really anywhere on the site, been busy with an internship as of late. But This is something I was working on in my spare time for a contest over at NurbsAndPolys.com, contest ended a couple of days ago. But I didn't finish, So now just working on it for myself. Based on Harryhausens Ymir. C&C always welcome.

looks like your sculptings come a long way, you gonna make this into a game model?

[sub_roland]

most likely yeah. But who knows i may get detracted by something else.

[sub_roland]

been awhile since i posted any of my work so here's something new that im working on. Its a mailbox, the concept art was found, either here or elsewhere, can't remember where, if anyone knows that would be awesome to get the info so i can credit if i put on website. C&C always welcome. This is just the flat diffuse in maya, gonna take into UE3 tomorrow, i think, to start work on the spec. Normals are done just not applied right now.

[DeusExMatteo]

the last piece really blows the other ones away (in my opinion), nice progress! I would suggest adding some more details to your zbrush sculpts - maybe some pores and wrinkles if your doing organic stuff. I started using the noise modifier in zbrush and can't understand how I got along without it :) Maybe it's my screen but the mail box looks realy dark to me, looking forward to seeing it lit in UT. Good luck with that!

[sub_roland]

thanks Deus, yeah i haven't tried out the new zbrush yet but hope to shortly, some of the new features seem pretty bad ass. Here is the update for the mail box again would love some c&c because i plane on putting it up on my website tomorrow. Thanks

again if anyone knows the artist that did the concept art that would be awesome to get the info. probably gonna reduce polys on the skull, got lazy with it and just use decimation master.

[sub_roland]

[sub_roland]

Awesome mailbox!

[TeriyakiStyle]

[sub_roland]

ngs616 - thanks, only wish i could remember where i got the concept from to give credit

Hey waggle thanks for peaking at my shit, thats all i hope to do, keep at it and get better, fingers crossed

here's a zombie, took a bit longer because i decided to see if i could remember how to resurface in zbrush, and i succeeded at it but ate up a bunch of time when i can just use the new unified skin.

[sub_roland]

Here's some more heads time varies from an hour or two

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj135/sub_roland/SomeMoreHeads.jpg

[sub_roland]

newest for tonight about an hour and a half

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj135/sub_roland/SeveredHead.jpg

[Ged]

are you using anatomy ref while doing these? they have alot of expression but the anatomy is all over the place

[PolygonJunkD]

hi sub_roland!
I pretty much like the style of your sculpitngs, but as Ged already said, watch out for anatomy in the heads. I guess if the anatomy is correct they would kick ass! So check that and give us a new one ;)
Cheers.
Poly.

[sub_roland]

Ged-thanks for looking at my crap. i have not been having an refernce up for the most part, some time ill pull up an image of one particular thing, so i can see why it would be all over the place. i was going to start reading loomis' drawing heads in the next day or two

*edit*added* PolygonJunkD- hey thanks, i agree with you both i really need to get that stuff down, hopefully sooner then later 8)

started this creature wanted to give the zsketch stuff a go, need a bit more practice with it, but you can definitely get some base meshes out fast with it

[sub_roland]

newest head, had some reference up while working on it, seems a bit better to me, but what the hell do i know. I feel like im still butchering the eyes. This one was around 2.5 hours

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj135/sub_roland/Perez_Head07.jpg

[sub_roland]

Here's the new one for tonight no reference used again, got to stop doing that, gonna try another fat guy tomorrow

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj135/sub_roland/Perez_Male08.jpg

[sub_roland]

Here's a new one, not a fat guy, still needs a bit more work, gonna use it on a little scene that i got in my head, he looks a little older then i want him to right now, so gonna work on that

http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj135/sub_roland/Perez_Zachary_tell.jpg

[indian_boy]

some really interesting sculpting and stylizing going on here.
i especially like this latest one.
i think some of the proportions in the earlier ones were being put too far out of proportion, and in my mind, that was hurting the style more than adding to it.

[sub_roland]

As always a long time between my posts, Here's a few hours sculpt that I was working on, Started from zspheres and zsketch, Started resurfacing in zbrush was almost done and it crashed while I was saving, (not to self remember to incrementally save) so I'm probably gonna ditch this guy and start something new. We shall find out today, gonna see what kind of a result i can get with unified skin

[sub_roland]

Sorry to say i haven't been on or done much for a while. Gameartisans have that speed sculpting thread going so i did something for that today, To get back into things a little bit. So here is my "demon from hell" took an hour give or take 5 minutes. I need to get quicker and better.
