So back when I was learning Zbrush, I had created this character (at some point last year), but I wasn't really happy with it so I decided to revisit and redesign him. It's still a WIP, but it's starting to come along so I figured it'd be worth a post! :)

This character is supposed to be a bit of a wanderer, finding different scraps of hides and metal debris that he crudely attaches and stitches to himself as armor. He'll be draped in some different pieces of cloth which I'm using Marvelous Designer to tailor, exporting to ZBrush, and adjusting there. Like the previous design, I'll probably be bringing this guy back down to a lower resolution for a game engine.

I've picked up some notes regarding the curvature of the calves and boots, so I'm looking into some of those in my spare time. I'd love any other comments that you guys have. Thanks! :)

Because Bickerstaff is an unstoppable machine...

Old but a goodie. When I got cast on TGD, and had know clue as to what the movie would look like, I did a test piece to run Mudbox through it's paces, and get to know the ins and outs.

Never did finish it, but here is a Raptor head done in Mudbox 2010, modeled, painted and rendered.

Quick-ish bust of Schlitzie, the original pinhead.

Tree Giant final

Through working on it. Not to say that there isn't more I could do, I just prefer to say that there's more I'm NOT going to do.

Marvelous Designer Workflow for Cloth Modeling

Hey guys, here's a quick workflow video I did while playing with Marvelous Designer to generate some fast cloth for a character. It works pretty well if you need realistic cloth, but don't want to sculpt it by hand.

Face colors looking weird converted to RGB (comping in CMYK), but here's the latest

Putting the Mermaid to bed

I did a little more work on this last night. Learned what I needed and I'm through with it.

Yes, the hand is intersecting the tail.
