Videos!

Here's some turn around videos for the current batch of projects!  We have a turn around for the mortar, the final animation that I've been working on and a zbrush turn around sculpt.

Low Polygon maya asset turn around

Maya animated short!

Final Maya sculpt

Final model with lighting and other photoshop edits.

Final Render of environment

Well, it all comes together in the end. Marmoset render of all Maya created assets.

All compositional elements point toward the center.  Dark object on left, light object on right with the most colorful in the center.  Everything else leans or slopes toward the mortar. 

Figure- Reposing

After resculpting several parts, making edits and proportion changes, I reposed the figure using a zbrush rig and gave him a dynamic pose.  The pose should tell a story, and that will help be expressed with the environment that will be added in later.  Until then you'll have to trust me.  Next I created a few simple primitives in Maya and imported them in as .objs.  I could make them in zbrush but that work flow was faster. Here's progress so far.

Sculpting the body

Muscles and skin.

Sculpting

20min sculpt and noise experiment. Must remember to turn on back face masking.

Portrait- revisions

The last 10% is the hardest 10%.  Getting there.

Portrait- polypainting

More work in progress.

zBrush fun

30 min of zbrush shenanigans.  Learning the new things.

Character: Everyday hero complete

My first low poly character reaches completion! 2500 polys. 1 2048 for skin and 1 2048 for clothing. Started the poly painting in zBrush followed up with photoshop. Modeled in 3d Max, rigged and lit in Maya.

zBrush- Polypainting 3

More done. Worked out my color pallet for the clothing (cloth leather). Still have to work out the metals as the tests didn't go well together. Unsure if the gems will stay that color as well since I want them to glow.

zBrush- Polypainting 2

Bone done! Onto the skin!

zBrush- Polypainting

It has begun!

Character Modeling: Rig

Rigging has started! Also, the finished polypaint.
