speed painting practice

a bit o' photoshop painting to test my new wacom. I've not really painted much before as I usually sketch on paper but i decided to have a go at PS and I found it quite fun. I didnt use any reference at all, as you can probably notice but it came out reasonably well despite the lack of reference, I will definitely do more soon but probably with reference and maybe colour swatching to speed things up a bit.

This is an idea I had for a ship hall and observation deck. The main concept and atmosphere is dark claustrophobic hallways leading into large open bright rooms with dark corners and expansive views of space. The hall was darker but i brightened it up in Photoshop so you can see more.

container wip

a quick container wip, mostly hand painted apart from a slight low opacity rust texture. i think i need a few enviro assets to balance out my folio so expect alot more.

hunter

This dude is a hunter character ive been working on recently. He will be brandishing a shotgun and maybe riding a pimped tractor :P

wip

decided against the vicar because the silhouette of the clothing is boring beyond belief, so i am now turning him into an old, wise modern demon hunter. im also going to give him another form in which he is part demonic.

a quic.k stylized spead sculpt,

another bash at z sphere sculpting, i like the freedom of creating a character this way. It lets me focus on the idea without having to worry about the topology and details straight away. It's only WIP at the moment havnt done anything to the legs yet or even descided what i want the body to do.

this was an attempt to create a model using just zbrush, i created the head from a zsphere then unwrapped with uvmaster and textured using the zbrush projection techniques and finally composited using photoshop.

I got a bit bored so thought id have a blast at zpheres and did this speed sculpt, its a wip but i may turn it into low poly but seing as its roughly posed i may not. its hands will be bound to its neck and they will act as its lower jaw

a quicky

just a quick zbrush sculpt from a sphere, most my bust start with a base mesh that has been modeled using reference planes, so i thought i should have a go at doing it without all that stuff.

There isn't any real polypainting on there, i just splashed a bit o' colour on real quick like.

zbrush speed sculpt

my brother and I worked together to create this speed sculpt, it was a fun excorsise to take a zsphere and create somthing without any reference, especially with 2 people working on it. I'm going to try this again soon just on my own.

general

a bit of practice with hand painting and low poly modeling, i think i could of improved his sillhouette but the clothes are quite tight.

wip battlemage

just some practice of female anatomy, her right side will be for fighting with a buckler and short sword and her left will be for magic. She will have ice shards jutting like teeth from her skin.

fagins palace wip

dodger: wip still

just a little brighter as he looks quite a bit darker on other monitors. also updates soon as ive completed him i just havnt had the chance to upload

wip

edit: added a few things like a bit of hair some purple aroun d the eyes and a little contrast to improve depth and detail plus he would be outside alot.

just created this head to see how much ive improved since uni. i will create the full body soon, ive just got a few things to do to his head.

another face using the same base mesh, ive been playing with skin tones to create fair skin. The whole idea is to create as many different nationalities and styles of people with the same base mesh quickly, this head took me about a day on and off, mainly working with weight around the face in zbrush

head sculpt

I descided to go back and have a little practice at zbrush again as i havnt used it much due to doing more hard modeling and environment stuff lately. I chose to update my old head sculpt and i think its coming on rather well soon i will lowpoly it and maybe make a nice set of clothes for it aswell.

lobby

a little environment practice for my folio, still got a bit to do like replace the trees with different types and add a few bushes, but all in all coming on quite well.

a veiw of her in marmoset

female bust

a bit of practice as I rarely create women. It was a fun exorcise and i learnt a few things, now time to get to work on the sub surface scattering shader in mental ray.

steampunk character wip

WIP of my steampunk style character, designed for my browser game. I have still got a few things to do with this character, mainly the head detail.

some anatomy practice

web browser game test

now ive got the fundamentals down with coding and the use of the engine, iam going to start work on a proper game prototype. I have various ideas for creating browser games, i dnt have a clue on which one to do. ooh the possibilitys :)

gangster

Ive been working on this character for about a day to practice my skills on a different nationality. My insparation for creating this character was seing a few images on tribes in africa and the child soldiers. I have rescently done a child so descided to do a man instead.
