Hey 3dEE,

Nice work! Especially this latest one. Really cool!

And the time lapse video is good too, will help allot!
It looked like (in the video) that when you wanted to adjust the falloff of the Soft Selection tool, you manually edit it through the tools options. You probably know this, but you can adjust the falloff by simply holding down Ctrl and scrolling the mouse wheel.

Like I said... you probably knew that

anyway, great work!

hey thanks steve. glad to hear the vid might help.
yeah i know about the MWheel/CTRL+MWheel, it's just that it's bugged up in ortho views so i have to either go to perspective or use the tool options.

anyway, i uploaded the vids to Veoh. the quality there is better, you can see the Status Bar Messages for the latest tool used; and the brush pallete is now more visible to show which brush is in use.

wow... this work is amazing.
Is it possible to ask the light setup you use... it seems cool to appreciate the volume....

thx

Great Style!!!
Nice material.
Zivio!

lovisx - tx. watching these videos i realized how much and why i prefer sculpting in silo2 than Z3 (even MB).
lorembolo - this is a software rendering in modo. i did some post in PS also. there's a PontLight, DirectionalLight, and GI. i guess most of the setup is software-specific, if you have access to modo i can give you a sample scene.

i got some time to continue on the latest character. the updates are on youtube and veoh links from the previous posts.

3dEE · 09-28-2008, 03:19 PM

i made a couple of final tweaks on this character and i'm calling it done, finally LOL. this last session was mostly arround the eyes, and by the end on the whole shape of the head, just tweaking it a bit and going away from the sketch concept.
the whole recording is approximately 70 min long, it's a x4 timelapse. other than the first 5 mins of sculpting on the level1 that i lost, everything is recorded. any time i'd open the file, i'd start capturing.

RogerKnightly · 12-16-2008, 04:29 PM

looks awesome, my only gripe is his lower lip, which dosnt read very well to me. maybe make if the space between the outline of the lips and top of the chin was concave it would read better.

3dEE · 12-21-2008, 05:05 AM

hey thanks on the comments guys, danke leute.
daniel, roger | that's just the lip. you know this tick some people have when they're engaged in something they curl their tongue through the teeth and down the lower lip, it should be something like that. i was thinking of taking this one further, do some hi-detail sculpting and maybe have a go at texturing it. maybe it will read better once textured.

3dEE · 01-17-2009, 10:20 PM

i've played a bit with some skin detail on the propellerhead. here's a screenshot from zbrush.

also rendered a quick turntable to get a feel of the volumes.

Nice work, diggin' the extreme caricaturization, that shading test looks great as well, looks like realistic clay, keep it up

Teyon · 01-29-2009, 04:12 PM

Can I just say, "I adore your new stuff"? Well I'll say it anyway... I adore your new stuff! So much fun and character in them. Keep going!

3dEE · 04-04-2009, 04:14 PM

_S9_ thanks! i've become a big fan of exaggerated caricature, glad it's seeping through my sculpts.

Teyon, hey what can i say to that. thanks a lot dude, coming from a modeler like you it's a huge compliment!

i've started a new character last night. i've just ruffed out the main forms for now. 2 subdiv levels, brook's base.
the concept is too 2d specific with undefined forms and it's a bit harder to translate so i'm taking liberties and shaping it up as i go along to not make it look akward in 3d.
