I did this bust awhile back for a high poly sculpt challenge on gameartisans.org It’s not perfect. The trapezius is a bit weird, there’s some connection issues with the muscles and someone asked if he had a stroke… I guess I just like him for his cauliflower ear. One of the most important things about being an artist (I would argue being a human being) is that you recognize your mistakes and make an effort to correct them. I also think it’s important not to forget the past. So for posterity sake.

I also did an E Honda for the same challenge… in retrospect I should have entered him instead.

I was looking through some old dominance war stuff and found these three sketches of possible ideas for my entry for last year. They’re a little heavy handed but I thought I’d share.

new vids for the maxx. Retop in topogun.

I just got my shapeways 3D print of my 3DTotal yeti entry.  Soooooo freaking cool.  I couldn’t get any REALLY good pictures with my camera because of the white levels not being up to snuff but in real life this thing is beyond awesome.  This is the first time I’ve been able to actually hold a 3D model that I created in the computer.  Today is an awesome day… There is more good news today but I’ll have to wait on sharing it

I fixed the clavicles, adjusted the relationship between the pecs, delts and bicep. I added some more costume detail. I think I might be ready to retopo this guy.

I forgot to add a mouth pocket. This gives me a chance to demonstrate how well Zbrush works in the goZ work flow without the goz automation. The pieces are there for the most part for the goZ functionality minus the texture maps transferring. Either way, I love that I can hop back and forth between any of the apps I use with relatively little fuss.

feeling pretty good with where this is going.
