Male Sculpt – ZBrush Doodling
Just another quick sculpting doodle…
I had some time to kill today while waiting for renders to finish, and it has been some time since I had a doodle session, so I sketched around in ZBrush for a while and created this character. Nothing special, I just wanted to brush up a bit on male muscularity….
Elly has left the building, Final Render and Breakdown
Alright, it was time to wrap this baby up. I could go on and on to keep detailing and refining her, but I felt I’d reached the point where I’d accomplished what I wanted with this project, mainly researching some new techniques for my workflow and touch some base with FiberFX in 9.6.
The final render…
Fifth and Final WIP of Elly
Here’s another update of this CG model, I spent some time with her last night. I modeled a new earpiece for her, fixed the clothing to make them a bit more fitting for her and also did some final tweaks to the skin texture and shading, which I am pretty happy with now.
But the major…
Get Ready – More LightWave Excitement, NewTek Core
LightWave 9.6 has barely left the building (released just 2 days ago), when NewTek drops the next bomb. The excitement builds up at NewTek Core. Guess we’ll soon know more about the next major leap for LightWave. They sure are busy bees over at NewTek these days, and it has never been more interesting and…
Fourth WIP of the Elly Model
Here’s a quick update to the character I worked with last week. I have been really busy, with work and also updating artstorm.net with some improved design and new features (like the turntable function), so I haven’t had time to pick her up for work again until yesterday, where I got some more things done…
It’s here, LightWave 3D 9.6
LightWave 3D 9.6… Woohoo! I just wanted to add a quick shout that version 9.6 has been released today and is available for download over at NewTek.
I’m so happy with this release, as about every quirk I had with 9.5 is gone. Actually there is over 600 fixes and feature requests implemented in 9.6. It’s…
Skin and hair updates on Elly + bonus FiberFX script
I had some time tonight to make a few small updates to Elly. It’s getting closer to completion.
Here’s the latest render test, the hair definitely needs more work…
I didn’t have so much time to work with this tonight, but since yesterday I have done a few things anyway.
I cleaned up some more of the textures,…
Resurrected female model – painted and shaded
Okay, a few hours has passed since my earlier post and it’s time for me to call it a night. Naturally I couldn’t completely finish her in this amount of time, as it’s quite a tedious task creating a detailed CG character. But I came pretty far though.
I more or less completed painting the textures,…
Resurrecting old projects – Female model
It’s Sunday afternoon, all the dreadful holidays stealing precious time are coming to an end, so what’s better to start of 2009 than by doing some house cleaning. I’ve let the axe work it’s way through my folder of unfinished projects with no mercy. It was time to kill some darlings where just too much…
Style your hair guides – ASE Spline Importer for LightWave 3D
LightWave 3D has some excellent rendering options for hair, the native FiberFX as well as the Sasquatch plugin from Worley Labs. Unfortunately the actual creation and styling of hair guides is still a bit cumbersome in LightWave, which is a shame really as the quality of the renders can be of outstanding quality.
FiberFX has done…
