What are you working on? II - Page 34

Today's sculpt - I'm going to try for an hour sculpt per day.

Staying kinda generic while I get the hang of stuff. Went for a bit of a wild west theme purely 'cause there's a Call of Juarez disc sat infront of me. Also tried to work a bit of asymmetry in.

Bit more progress.

The obligatory noobsculpt - a wrinkled old man!

Tomorrow it'll be a hugley wrinkled monster thing! (I keed, I'm gonna try something stylised, I think).

working on this guy atm

Today's sculpt. Weighs in around an hour thirty - had some trouble working out how to make my basemesh more feminine in form (cheers Florian for the crits!).

Ears are a mess, ignore them, needs more geometry there to work well

Rick: Cool creature. He looks very, very thin, though. I'd imagine that his arms/wrists would be almost as likely to break as those large claws. Might be worth making his default pose a little less rigid, too.

His slender design is mostly coming from the main inspiration behind him, the praying mantis

. Ive been looking at different creatures with hardshells/exoskeltons and there was something about the mantis slim design i liked, so went with it.

Im currently beefing him up a bit though, purely to make his silhouette more interesting. i had him thinner than showen above and it just wasnt very interesting to look at, making his muscles and some features more defined has helped a lot.

Have a look at this guy, theres something majestic about it. Cant wait to get to work on the high poly for this, should be fun.

Nice stuff Talon, I'd been hoping to do an hour sculpt a day...I got sidetracked though :S I look up to you for doing it

Are you doing these from references?

Talon · 22-01-2008, 12:11 PM

Cheers, dude. No refs, it's all from a basemesh I made (it shows, badly XD).

Today's was a bit of a flop, only got 10 spare mins at lunch (crunch time). Hopefully I can get some more time tomorrow lunch time.

Maybe next one I'll get a ref to sculpt from, heheh.

Yesterday's sketch, from a sphere again. I was trying really hard to get into this idea but because i lost a much better file from the day before (crash on save) it just wasn't happening, so i stopped here. At least i have a screenshot to show for this one..

Todays will be better i hope.
