  1. Thank you, Britain and Monkeybrain!

    I have got startet some more tweaking on the mesh in Paintmodus, the lower jaw and cheekbones still needing more love.

    Maybe, the Nose is also a little to tiny, especially the tip of the nose ?!

    Here the Pictures

  2. Hi Folks,

    dont spend to much time in 3D at the moment, but here a few things i want to show you i have done a while ago.

    @Tony Nemo

    My Plan was doing a rig for quick posing and some basic mimic, but as you mentioned the area around the mouth is really tricky.

    I still have found no good solution for this.

    @LJB

    Thank You man, youre right the Forms suffering under symmtrie mode.

    I have got started the Head new.

    Progress is still low, so in the meantime i played a little with Projectionpainting :).

    Here some Renderings C4d an PS Elements mixed with CFx

    Another Rendering tried some painting with standard brushes in 3DC, not finished yet.

    Make heavy use of LiveClay for sculpting, but in between i got some trouble with double geometrie but was able to export the model without crash and clean it manually.

    I think it starts when using pinch or move tool.

    It seems LiveClay have the same Problems like meshmixer in the early stages.

    The sculpting itself was finished to quick so there are a few anatomical problems, but was mostly fun to do.

    Maps are 4k, Baking was done in Microvertex Mode

  3. @ Arnaud Couturier

    Thank you!

    Some good points you have mentioned here.

    I've switched to LC and tried to improve this more, but still in trouble with the Volumes of the Face.

    @chris_solo

    Thank you!

    @ SYN7AX3RR0R

    Thank You, i'll keep on trying.

    Some Pictures, C4D and Photshop-Elements for the Post!

    Wish you all a nice Christmas!

  4. @Britain

    Thank you!

    @Beatkitano

    Thank you :), glad you like it, but i think their model is a level to high to compete with.

    I would be very happy if i come that far =).

    @Tony Nemo

    Thanks you!

    I have spend some more time on the head, trying to get it even better.

    Now the Front is off, so i have to carefully pay more attention to his cheekbones,jawbone and ear position.

    On the other side his profile looks somehow more like arnold :), what do you think?

  5. @alan f

    Thank you :).

    good point, i think the lower part need a rework.

    @michalis

    Thanks :)

    Render is the internal Engine of C4D, the added some new features, like new sss an physical cam.

    @gbball

    Thank you :)

    When Andrew and Raul optimizing LiveClay for lowLevel vxlmeshes , than we have and excellent bridge from vxl to surface without loosing any presculpted detail:)

    I hope LiveClay is coming for next year =)

    @LJB

    Thanks man :)

    I'll try to improve it.

    An Update, i went back to the head on a new layer and tested a different shape.

    Here's the result, 490k polygons.

  6. Welcome Arnaud Couturier,

    Nice Work so far! :)

    I'm not expert in this field, maybe u can give her a little more volume between the ripcage and the pelvis where the side abs are connecting.

    Ear needs more volume and Form, i think it's to flat.

    Keep it up!

  7. Hi all!

    After a break some new Stuff of last Sunday.

    Trying some difficult an doing a celebrity, let me know if you reconizing him.

    References were taken from Google pic

    I plan to do it nearly complete in 3dcoat, hopefully without problems.

    Startet from a ffd primitive, and than using the airbrush and scrapebrush in vxl mode.

    Around 6h so far and 1.6mil polys if i'm right.

    Critique are welcome.

    regards

    Markus

    ps: is there a way to edit a thread title when the thread is already started, or can this only be done by an admin?

  8. hi Gian-Reto.

    Did you export the mesh over the Paintroom, under file/export/export model?

    There is an option for displacement "coarse sharpen mesh",

    it deforms the lowpoly mesh so that it is representing more the shapes of the highpolymodel.

    Maybe it's another problem, so hopefully someone can help you who is more familar with 3d-coat/blender.

    regards

    Markus

  9. renderdemon i have this problem too, it's also noticeable in vxl mode.

    one big dot on startpoint of the stroke.

    btw the new build is really not bad, lots of things working better like the move tool in vxl and smoothing in paintroom without colormixing , well done! :)

    but Live Clay looks still very early to me, but promising.

    thin areas an espacially areas with low vxl resoltuion, getting bad tesselated as soon as you start with the lc brushes.

    Lots of spikes and dots, you have to do a lot of cleanup before you can work over it again.

    Deciamate feature didn't help much here.

    Also the smoothing under LC in denser areas are not optimal it feels like you smoothing with a big scaled noise sometimes.

    The surface gets wavy.

    Projecting a Mesh from LC to paintroom is a problem if your mesh is not dense enough u get all the artifacts and lower polygonareas in the projection.

    I'm no math expert, but would it be possible to subdivide the highpoly model internally without loosing your surfacedetails, so that you get a clean and smooth projection onto your retopo model.

    Something like a smoothed normal projection.

    This would be great for Displacement output later.

    Also it seems that in paintroom the option "change texture and mesh resolution" under Microvertex mode does no longer work for me,

    was this option cancelled?

    Last but not least, a big wish a feature for an surface edit mode for your projected mesh.

    For example, to been able to model the inside of the mouth for an character without loosing the current projected mesh and uv.

    Maybe an extra feature for the retoporoom.

    I know, many demands but if you get LC working that would be already very nice :).

  10. @Taros

    Thank you!

    No Website at the moment, but i plan to do so in near future.

    Have not many finished stuff.

    @chris_solo

    Thank you, yes i do using refs.

    I often searching through the web to get enough impressions and then i try to start from mind as far as i can.

    For muscle guys i prefer Bodybuilding.com, Team-andro.com, musculardevelopment.com

    Here some progress on the Body, legs are a little off.

    post-1448-0-30744200-1311339731_thumb.jp

    some quick sculpting on ghost riders jacket, to practising folds.

  11. Here a screenshot of the baseheads in 3dc, not really a good shape =) but it worked well for voxels.

    post-1448-0-12210200-1311192596_thumb.jp

    Btw, some slightly detailing on my old mans Head and a body experiment for the other guy, merged them quick together and decreased the vxl resolution for a better view.
