Hand Study

Doing a little sculpting in ZBrush for funzies. Also experimenting with materials and composite rendering in Zbrush.

Central Park

Refining the Block Mesh. I believe everything is accounted for and placed. Camera feels close to final. Time to start the base meshes that I will later bring into Zbrush.

Central Park

Starting in on a new scene from a photo I took in Central Park. This will be a material and lighting study.

Powerful Substance Designer. Powerful.

Learnin' How To Make Them Substances

Hey y'alls. I have been spending some time digging into Allegorithmic's Substance Designer. Here are my results thus far. Its a pretty sweet program. It's all node based and what you see here is a result of absolutely no sculpting or modeling. This is all done using noises, masks and blends. I'll keep updating.

After baking the high poly down, I created a texture cube and brought it into Unreal Engine 4. From there I used a tiling moss texture I had on hand and created a vertex blend material driven by a height map to achieve the results.

Making Some Tileable Stones

Fine tuning them skills to keep up with (or should I say catch up to) the savages in this industry!

Thulsa Doom Sketch

Take a several hour break. Drink some beers (enjoy life), spend 15 more minutes and be amazed at all the small details you missed. I'm sure there is a rinse and repeat I could throw in there but I'm just looking to sketch and move on. I'm gonna take what I have and refine. Then on to the next thing.

Thulsa Doom Sketch

The beginnings of Thulsa Doom. Need to take a break for now. I think there is a likeness surfacing but its not there yet.
