Wooooh peptalk!

Today something fucking awesome happened, the one and only Richard Diamant (former employee at Naughty Dog and now working at Blizzard!) replied to my email I sent him. I will ofcourse not reveal what I wrote to him, but he's fucking awesome and is indeed a huge inspiration!

That being said, I now need to study even harder and do what I love the most, even more! ;D

this is a cut-out from the full image


It's been a while since my last post - been really busy with being sick (cheers i got the cold) and been busy with fixing with my portfolio and such. Today I finally got the chance to draw again - so frekking awesome <3

The piece i'm working with on the other hand - is kinda random, still don't know what will become of it. Hopefully something cool and fierce, raaawr! Well well, atleast I have my dreams xD

sketches!



15 min ehm sketches or something, i'll keep spamming those sry!

P.S. noticed that it's pretty fkn mainstream to do humanoids with these kind of shitty designs - so my ambition is to make something unique that the community of DoW haven't seen before. It'll be a huge challenge but i'm somehow positive that something great will come out from this.

Ahem...posting something old again, sorry!

It's a car ok!




Ok, so the plan was to create and environment concept in 3D for a little 'something', well the environment got made...but I put my focus into something else instead. A long time ago I did a midpoly car (6 or 7k tris or something) - and while doing this environment it suddenly hit me . revamp it a bit and give it some justice = win. So I made a few adjustments and tadaaa it became highpoly! :)

Here's iteration 1 of the render, going to try something new with the other renders tho, hopefully the new ones will become 100x times better than these :)

late night doodle



Yeah curse lineart *bbbburrrn* - naaaaaa i like linework ;D Sooo my buddy came up with this brilliant idea - to sketch something as fucked up as a zombie (even tho mine isn't that fucked up YET). So I was thinking ....something that would make me shit my pants if it would exist in real life.....so it came out to be a firefighting zombie with huge fucking hands which ofcourse are hanging on elastic skin that enables him to hit fast and super hard! Not only that, this sucker can fly.. swinging his arm up the air and then hitting the ground sends him off at a high speed and eventually crashlanding on his enemy.

Nothing is too hard for this guy.......zombie hordes? pff, he can solo anything!

this is a skeeetchh

all this wood man...


more wood mhmmmh yes

Texturing



The progressing continues - just finished the first iteration texture for a female face. I'm well aware of the scar, i'll get there soon enough - just need to find some 'gore' references to give it justice ;D

random render


welll, it's not really a render since I just put on the ghost/transparency setting in ZBrush...nothing fancy ;)

late night producing



I sat a couple of hours on this hungover saturday semiAfk producing something that hopefullt will be usable for a school assignment (30 second animatic). It's still not finished tho, since I have to bake and merge the texture normals from the sculpted one made in ZBrush. Anyway, was fun to do! The model landed on a total of 68 tris.

creature sculpting in ZBrush


today I started my creature sculpt, and it's going really good. here's a little something that i'm doing atm - it's soon doon so kinda doing the detail pass. Later on I'll be making the texture inside Zbrush just so that i can get the workflow right, still a huge cap between the goal i'm aiming at.

oold thing that I just wanted to put up here for the world to see!

doodling

(viewport screenshot)

Done tonsssss of reasearch today, regarding ingame models, sculpting, maps - tips and tricks on different software and muuch much more, fucking love the internet. Later on I decided to doodle something, and that something later turned up to be stones/rocks (since it's something I've never done before). It was just awesome to test different stuff and shit - sure the cracks on the rocks are beyong improvised and the texture is just a plain overlay, but I learned alot that could be applied on alot more than rocks.

I still got stuff to research that would make my workflow faster etc. but I'll take that tomorrow after I've got some sleep.


P.S. On the model, I need to rebuild the lowpolys in some places - due to the artifacts I got on both the occlusion and normal map.

The hands - Part II



So I started this hand-training exercise since I pretty much got sick of being bad at drawing hands, and hopefully this will make me a tiiiiny bit better. Yesterdays training is paying off already, the shapes are easier to draw now and the pen draws just like I want it too. Perfection will take some time, but atleast I now know the basics.

Back to the drawing board!
