In the spirit of tribal aliens....and testing Fibremesh...



...I decided to do this guy! I wanted to play around with the new Fibremesh feature in Zbrush and sculpted up this guy to do so. I've always loved the Babirusa boar, which was the inspiration for the growing tusks from his face. The hair was what consumed most of this image, as I'd never used it before, but after a little while, I got used to the settings and was kinda happy with the result, so I thought I'd share. The sculpt took around 1.5 hours and finished the piece in an evening after work with colour etc. But Fibremesh, now learned, looks to be a powerful tool!

Maker of Dreams.



Well, it's been an embarrassingly long time since I last did any personal work. This was a very rushed attempt to get something done yesterday after work to update this blog before the internet kicks me off for loitering! It was a lazy sculpt again, and not intended to be any "concept art"more experimentals of the mental kind. I decided to call him Maker of Dreams, or the Sandman.


I created him using Zbrush and Photoshop.
