No day without progress. Dress block out

The blockout of the character I'm making for one indie gamedev :3

Trying my hands in zbrush fibermesh, it is a mess, I'll tell you that xd

I've started to watch the anatomy course by Scott Eaton, it's been a long time coming. The course itself is amazing, definitely recommend to everyone. For now - quick sketch for torso.

Nice! I hear that's a good anatomy course.

First pass on texturing the guy above. I didn't bother with details too much, since the game this guy is made for is turn-based game (much like Heroes of Might and Magic), thus this guy will only be seen from some distance

I have no idea, why...
Just felt like doing smth like this xd
PS Right now it reminds me of Raiden (Mortal Kombat one), mixed with the mushroom xDD

Sometimes you just gotta.... Great work!

Have been busy a bit for last couple of days, participating in one local sculpt challenge, hopefully will share the results soon enough. For now: another speed sculpt practice with some kind of dude

Helluvallyric 2019-06-25 20:22:29 UTC #31

I will have to switch over from heads asap, it's getting repetitive I'm afraid :C, but another speedsculpt for practice. Added a bit more creativity

Helluvallyric 2019-07-04 09:37:37 UTC #32

Gradually branching off sculpting ONLY heads. Quick retopo and UV in
ZBrush and texturing in Substance Painter, just to be fancy. Turned out to be quite messy, but again, it's just a speedsculpt essentially.
Will continue working.

Sounds like a great way to practice the character artist workflow. Are you doing re-topo with Zremesher, or doing the crazy Zsphere method?

Helluvallyric 2019-07-05 14:47:04 UTC #34

I gave the Zsphere method a try few months ago, it nearly drove me crazy to be honest. Surprisingly, ZRemesher works quite decently, especially the new version in ZBrush 2019. If you can assist it with some polygroups, which give the idea of correct loops, it does quite well. Nothing production ready of course, but sufficient

bennettdurfee 2019-07-06 02:39:28 UTC #35

I've felt the same about the Zsphere re-topo. Haven't had the chance to do any intensive re-topo with the new Zremesh yet, but everyone seems pretty happy with it.

Helluvallyric 2019-07-06 05:54:11 UTC #36

You should try it some day. If mixed with manual retopo it can speed up the overall process by quite a margin and we all know how we feel about this tedious stage of retopology xD

Helluvallyric 2019-07-08 15:00:38 UTC #37

Another practice piece, same treatment as the previous one. Starting to feel the body proportions better.

Helluvallyric 2019-07-14 19:51:09 UTC #38

Another practice. I switched to the girl, the main goal was to make a more or less pretty face, which at least looks like a woman's one, I consider this task successful, but the nipples are slipped way too much xD. When I do this kind of practice pieces, I never plan a specific image for a character, but I add at least something that would just be interesting. This time I imagined the character to be some kind of forest elf

Helluvallyric 2019-07-15 22:01:24 UTC #39

Gradually adding elements. This time - arms

Shia 2019-07-16 09:20:16 UTC #40

Great work! For the nipples, I'd put them more centered to make it more anatomically correct.
Love the worn look of her skin.

Helluvallyric 2019-07-16 10:01:53 UTC #41

Thanks! Totally agree about the nipps, I've understood it just after I've finished the work. I assume i've just spent too much time on the piece without rest and didn't get this obvious mistake :C
