Some Thesis Preview

I haven't posted in long time, I haven't had much finished pieces I haven't put up yet or interesting process work until now.

This is a small preview to a portion of my thesis that will be done in zbrush. I'm still gonna have plenty of other stuff that will be painted and Illustrated.

The head isn't done yet, I still have to add the hair and play with the skin painting a bit more.



I do have some more random stuff that I haven't put up yet that doesn't have anything to do with thesis. So those should be coming soon.

New Business Card

Redesign for my business card. I wanted something more eye-catching and vibrant than my old one. I'm also using this color scheme for all my stationary as well. It's a bit less jarring than the plain black and white.

Next step is finding a good print service place with decent prices.

Bronze Brock

So, this is one of the versions I planned out for the final of my Brock Samson piece. I originally wanted to do a full out painted Brock with skin texture and some rendered bloom lighting and maybe even some kind of scene. But I also knew I was working on a tight time limit and plus I'm still learning the program so I needed to have a back up plan.

And this was it. It's bronze memento immortalizing a fallen friend.

I still have alot I plan to do to it. I still want to tighten up some areas and learn how to do poly-painting and fancy lighting and rendering.

Brock Samson WIP 2

Here's some more progress shots of the Brock Samson sculpt. I've been running into problems here and there, but nothing too impossible.

I have a lot more process shots from earlier steps. But it would be too much to be posting them every other day.

In the end I'll choose the best images of each step and put together some kind of time lapse picture.

Brock Samson Progress

So for Illustration they gave us an open assignment and I wanted to do something a little different. I had already been playing around with Zbrush, so i was wondering if i could pull off a final piece in it.

My idea was to do something similar to the scene in the first episode of The Venture Bros when Brock kills Speedy when he's all shot up full of tranquilizer darts. I didn't want to do Samson lieing passed out on the ground choking Speedy like in the scene, I wanted to spice it up. He's still going to be riddled with darts though.

This here is a test model of the face. just to see if i could make it recognizable and accurate. Also wanted to see if I could keep some of the cartooniness as well.






And here's the actual pose coming along with some progress shots.
