Little Crab

 

A little dynamesh sculpt, started from a sphere I did a few weeks back. Based on a design I found on the charming blog of Katie Hargrove 

coffee shop sketches from last weekend

LampPost Sculpting

Skulls and ropes added, now on to the lows!

Lamp Post!

Started this one to figure out a good dynamesh workflow, really happy with where it is going

Weekend Sketching

Spent the weekend visiting a friend in Toronto, started my days with a little sketching

udk update'n

finally getting back to this scene, I am pretty happy with the core of it but I am struggling with the lighting and post, will probably take it back to scratch and have another go at it.

Buddha Sculpt

A light sculpt from sculptris to zbrush. I am pretty happy with the results, still a bit wiggly in spots but I am done with it for now. Here is what I was sourcing from. Sorry for the formatting but blogger refuses to accept my uploads tonight :-(

fin

detailed and done, off to something else :-)

Trying to make a hi poly fire hydrant from scratch in zbrush, looking to practice the hardsurface tools/workflow. Some parts are working, others are a bit soft, but I am learning a lot. Now on to the fun stuff!

WallFace!

Found some interesting ref on flickr and started this one as a lunch project a few months back, really wanted to see it through to "somewhat" finish, loose in spots but I learned a lot. After getting halfway through I realized that straight up sculpting probably wasn't the best approach to get clean results. Switched to extractions and masking for the square sections, they came out nice and precise. Well at least I know for next time.

Still Figure Painting

Just realized that I haven't posted in like two months, I am always working on something but never seem to think that my pieces are fit to post, which kind of defeats the purpose of this whole thing :-) So anyways here are some paintings from a few weeks back, going to sessions ever other week seems to work best.

More Life Drawing

Super quick post here, just tossing up some drawings from last week. Starting to get a little bit of a workflow down, we will see how tomorrow's session goes :-)

Udk Scene Updated

Here is the current state of things on my UDK project. The scene is moving along, got everything into unreal and cleaned up modelling wise. The roadmap is pretty clear: Textures need tightening, make proper specs and start painting out lighting ideas. The end is in sight!

In an attempt to hide the fact that I haven't been to life drawing in quite a while I am posting the results of my last session and a few sketches. Really digging Cs5 for painting, wish I had switched earlier :-)

Udk Away!

Put in some work on the weekend, have a rough mesh in UDK and I am trying some stuff. Still so much further to go!

New Year, Old Art

Over the break I got the PC all organized and ready for the coming year. Please find below more life drawing strugglin and a little sketch of Katrina Hemming's shiny new swing, pretty sweet :-)
