Choices Have Been Made

These were chosen from the 12 designs from last week. Now we take these three and polish. 

I took these back into ZBrush to give more detail. Afterwards, the gray ZBrush render was taken into Photoshop for coloring.

I am really happy with the way these turned out. I gave them the time they desrved, and I think it shows. My favorite is "F."

Insert Brushes

"They say time is the fire in which we burn."

I pretty much doubled the time I have spent in previous weeks and still feel like I didn't spend enough time on this part. I would have loved to spend more time on polish, but the life of an art lead won't allow it. Based on feedback, I had to go back and remodel 8 of my 12 designs to follow more of the chosen concepts for our capstone. And while modeling insert brushes is fun to say the least, rework ate up a bunch of my time.

Time * Time * Time

So here they are - this week's refinement of concepts:

and the brushes:

Concepting in ZBrush - Part 2

Expanding the designs to 12, this was a very challenging week.

Here are the wireframes

I then took this base and made three other variants.

This is the sculpt made from reference

The second version I wanted to look a little leaner

The next one has enlarged head, legs and tail

And the fourth I was going for more anime looking
