pencil-head sketchbook

[pencil-head]

Just started learning 3dcoat. Thought i'd give my self a little project to get used to the app. Having fun so far, these are the results.

[Greg]

Wow! You're doing great for someone new to the program. Be sure to keep posting, and welcome!

Greg

Thanks Greg. I'm new to 3d coat, but not new to sculpting. But yeah it's been pretty easy to pick up 3DC and run with it. Credit to the programmers.

quick render to see if my texture maps are working. I may have issues with uv smoothing around the borders but I think its good enough. Calling this one done.

blender with some dodgy photoshoping

Nice start here.

You already involved with blender sss too. Go for multi pass render, compose them via nodes. But try to export one render at a time, compose them via layers in gimp or Ps. Blender nodes have some known bugs, when asking for blending methods like screen etc. Try to avoid this rubber like or plastic toy effect.

Nice look. I love the tattoos big fan of geometric alien tats.

[Rich_Art]

Yeah I like him as well.

Peace,

Rich_Art.

Thanks guys.

@michalis: i'll definitely spend some more time on the shaders next time. I just slapped on a crappy shader coz i was more interested in seeing how the textures were looking rendered.

@LJB: yeah i totally riped that of google. I can't claim credit for that.

This was an old model, started in zbrush but I've converted it to voxels and done more work to it.

[Sandro Borg]

very nice sculpt pencil-head.

i really like how you've done the muscles and form.

i like the lighting/shading too - was the render done in 3D coat?

and do you intend on animating it too? i think it would would look great

i'm new to 3D Coat too,so it's very inspiring to see all this great work being done with it.

btw,i love the alien head you posted in this thread too - very cool.

[pencil-head]

Thanks Sandro. Yeah, it was rendered in 3dcoat. Nothing special going on, just used the "default" material, 1 light with some AO. I mite do a little animation if i ever get around to it.

Long time no post.

Here's a timelapse sculpt i did recently.

[Garagarape]

Cool monster! I like its melt cheeks.

What do you use to capture your videos?

I know only Fraps but don't have much experience with it.

[pencil-head]

Thanks Garagarape.

I used CamStudio for the screen capture. It's free and easy enough to use.

[Garagarape]

Pencil-Head,

Thanks for the tip.

I'll have a try when more confident with sculpt.

Waiting for your next work (Or may be you will texture this one?)
