Bennett's Sketchbook

Aye thanks! Think you're right the context cues for scale are pretty loose. Dialing that in will be my goal for the next pass. The lil traveler dude with a walking stick may wander into frame haha. I've been sitting under a lot of trees taking ref photos in an effort to get a handle on that 'under a canopy of foliage' feeling.

Wanted to share a commission I just wrapped up! Super fun spaceship modeled & rendered in ZBrush with some touchups in Photoshop.

Robo animal sketches

Experimenting with the 3D asset pipeline. My goal was to get a thing into UE5 and get a render out of it. So I sculpted a lil goblin bust, did retopo and uvs in ZBrush. Threw it into Painter then Blender for materials. Got a pretty good handle on material nodes in Blender and UE5. Made a bunch of mistakes but overall things went pretty smooth.

Workin on a character/creature idea. First pass on colors, any color help is always appreciated

I like those new designs, makes me want to try something similar too. Especially the nice skin colors.

[bennettdurfee]

Glad you like em! I've been looking at the grayscale for so long the colors feel super over the top haha

Very nice! I also like to mix-in some sculpting practice from time to time. It actually helped me getting some anatomy and rendering level-ups.

[bennettdurfee]

Thank yah! Totally agree, sculpting has been huge for me too. Building and breaking things apart in 3d is amazing for learning. Plus its really fun
