Really like her cloth! What is your process? Great job

@guillaume_depaepe Thank you! I've been making bases in Marvelous Designer, then bringing them into Zbrush for refining and soon to be detailing. One of my main goals with this project was to get a better grasp on Marvelous Designer. I'm learning a lot!

I tried a new, slightly less busy shirt design, though I just noticed I forgot to add the lace sleeves back in from the old shirt, so pretend those are still there. I think I'm liking it better, but I'm not 100% sure yet. I'll have to rest my eyes and come back later.

Hey guys. Not much to report here. Incredibly busy lately. I want to make sure not to stall out on this project, so I'm posting anyway.

Hopefully the rest of the week and next week will be much more productive on this front.

Hello again. Sorry for the absence, I've been quite ill. It took some of my working time away from me, but hopefully I can still finish in time. Here's where I am now:

I think I'm going to do a small pass of high frequency detail and then call the sculpt done so I can move on to retopology, hair, UVs and textures. So much to do, so little time.

looks cool! a sword or sabre would be nice. hehe.

Thanks! A sword of some sort is definitely in the plans, but I want to make sure I finish her up first - just in case!

After taking a step back to analyze and evaluate, I don't think I can make the deadline with my schedule without massively rushing to the detriment of quality. At this point, I think I'd rather take my time and finish the character strong for a portfolio piece.

So with that, I'm officially conceding the competition. I learned a lot from this and will definitely see this project through to the end. I'm now infinitely more comfortable in Marvelous Designer and I picked up a few new tricks in ZBrush too! Huge thanks to CubeBrush and the sponsors for the opportunity, as well as the community for cheering each other on! Hopefully there will be more contests like this in the future!
