Creature Sculpt Stage Two...



More Details and anatomy work, I've really fallen in love with the clay brush as it does an awesome job of building up forms. Accessories and such are up next along with detailing the hands and feet...

Platyfish in 3D...

Remember this guy?
Its my concept painting for a fish I called, Platyfish. I am now building him in 3D, and I started the mesh today. I began with ZSpheres and then converted it to a mesh and have been building up his forms. Here's my progress after a handful of hours.
I'm gonna have to re-topologize him next and add in his back/spinal fins before I add any more detail...

Creature Sculpt Stage One...






New Creature I'm building, started from a base mesh that came with a tutorial on ZBrush Sculpting Techniques that I am currently doing. I've changed the pose on the mesh quite a bit so hopefully it will be quite different looking from the one in the tutorial when I'm done.

Look Who's Back...


...decided I better get back to work on texturing/finishing this guy. He was originally built in Mudbox, but since its been a while I brought him into ZBrush 3.1 and cleaned him up a bit then added a few more details and rebuilt his textures. He's on the top of my "need to finish" list now...

Alien E Concepts...



... First was a monochrome quick sketch then a color concept. This is for a related 3D sculpt I am working on. I will probably do some close ups of his head also...

Music Video I Created About a Year Ago...

Huge Fan of Ric Flair and the build up to Starrcade 83 and then of course the subsequent match that took place at Starrcade 83 between Ric Flair and Harley Race for the NWA World Heavyweight Title. First Music video I ever made. Anyway, now that the blogs have a new video adding/embedding feature I figured I'd throw it up and see how it is. It's a little over 6 minutes long and I had a lot of fun doing it. Technically I'd consider it enough of a sketch to put it up here...

Hairbrush Test...


A little 3D test I did, modeling and texturing a Victorian style hair brush in a bit of a cartoony style.

New Alien Head...



Well this started out as a test based on a new tutorial on sculpting around sub-objects in ZBrush and I was having too much fun so I kept on going and after 3 hours I have a nice base for another alien. Don't know if I'll do anything further with this one but I like how its evolved in such a short amount of time.
