Voldemort

So, I watched a Harry Potter marathon on ABC family a few weeks ago, and I've been watching the Deathly Hollows trailer every once in a while too. So, I've had Voldemort stuck in my head for a while.

So I started up Zbrush and got to work. I also managed to save some of the process along the way. This is him pretty early in the sculpting process. You can tell because his teeth are way to pretty.


Here he is after the sculpting was mostly done and I started polypainting him. Thanks to all the screenshots from the movies I accidently made him way too blue. It worked out well in the end though, because it gave him a nice dead, veiny base color.


Here he is with his final more human skin tone.



Also as practice I sculpted the smiling model into a frown.

Some Older Exercises

These are some older exercises I found on my hard drive. I wanted to practice making a realistic face, so what better way to do that than to model my own? So I took a few pictures from different angles and kept a small mirror next to my monitor and got to work

It's still a work in progress though. Eventually, I'll add eyebrows, different hairstyles and even color.


After that I decided to have some fun with model and make my self into a super fatty. Or maybe it's me in twenty years? who knows.


I also had a generic head sculpt of a Na'vi I was working on lying around. So, I figured why not use my head sculpt as reference to make myself a Na'vi avatar?

All in all pretty fun practice.

Thesis Main Guy

Here's a bit of the progress of the main character from sketch to model to final colored version. I'm still not too happy with the colored version of the main character, so I might still put some work into those before I post the renders up.

Thesis Villain Part 2

Here is the full body render of my main villain which I've only so far referred to as the fat man, or also as "Bad Fat" as I've named him in my file names. I did come up with quite a bit of a back story for him, but the important part is that he's really fat, evil and immobile, so he uses his mechanical equipment to pilot huge menacing robots. Not the most creative villain, but I never said I was a writer.

Thesis Villain Part 1

This is the final version of the main villain for my thesis, he's gotten a bit fatter and grosser since the earlier version I posted.

For now I'm just posting the head shots. I have full body renders, video turntables and the rest of the characters coming up too.
