Manimal Submission

Giraffe Queen submission for ZBrush Club.
Done in Zbrush 4 and finished in Photoshop.
7 or 8 Render Passes in total.

Marine Iguana Montage

Thought I'd put together a nice start to finish montage of my iguana with all these process renders I took along the way. Very glad I did this! I'll most likely be doing something similar for future sculpts!
Anyway to my handful of followers please feel free to leave comments or critiques!
This will most likely compress the hell out of this wonderful high res video I made, so if you are a friend on Facebook I would suggest just watching it there with their high res player. Thanks for Looking!!!

Lizard Submisison!

Started this guy on Monday night. Finished with Compositing late last night. Im really happy with this submission! Looking forward to Zbrush Club later Today! Galapagos Marine Iguana...

Been Busy!!

With the newly started Zbrush Club at AIS, I wanted to post up all the projects we work on this quarter. The first project or "Thunderdome Challenge" we did was the Primate challenge.
I chose to sculpt a Mandrill...or Ribbed Nosed Baboon. Their fangs are known to grow larger than adult male lions!
Had a lot of fun with this first project, but ultimately I think we all struggled trying to represent fur in digital clay. I just went for a more traditional style of doing the fur rather than photo real. He might get so REAL fur put on him in Maya 2011 if I find the time!

new hair...I need more clayyyyy

Im back...

Kinda fell off the planet as far as this blog goes..but that doesnt mean I havent been busy! Heres something new I've started. Highly inspired from the new Tomb Raider reboot cover article in GameInformer Mag. I already had her look in my head but the magazine has some great reference images for what I needed! Anyway here's her progression so far.. I will update as I get further, have some pretty cool things in mind with the sculpt and the female form is soooo challenging!

Logo project wk4

Been working on this idea for a while and Im finally getting comfortable with where its at! Still some small tweaks to be done but the overall look is there I think... Still have to Do a High Res Render with multiple layers so I can easily tweak things in Post (AE CS5) Plus I'm still planning on adding a camera shake as the second text fractures the ground, to give it extra weight.
