Painter's Pets: Dash of Yellow

I figured the Painter's Pets would be 3 colors: Red, yellow, and blue. The reason is obvious: those colors are the original primary color triad. They will also represent the 3 common models you can have as pets in a RPG game: Tank (strength), Numbers (mobility), and Ranged (caster).
As you can figure now, the Blotch of Red in my last post is the Tank/melee/strength character.
This time I have the little...excuse my language...shitheads of dogs that can annoy the crap out of you. Similar to Zerglings from Starcraft or any game that has large packs of high mobility little runts (Prometheans in Halo 4...I'm looking at you.), the Dash of Yellow is supposed to represent that. With a splash of yellow on the ground, 3 dogs will form from the splash and annoy the hell out of the Painter's enemies.

I need to work on non-human feet/ human feet/ human hands/ appendages in general more.

Painter's Pets: Blotch of Red

I had some quick ideas when I was showering one day about some pets a painter character can have in a sort of RPG like setting. The Painter, along with other artists of sorts, would be warriors in a fantasy setting like what you would see with warlocks, mages, warriors, barbarians, etc.
The painter has 3 types of basic pets (Was thinking that he/she could mix paints and thus mix pets) which I have come up with clever names for :P at least...In my mind they are clever...<_<

FIRST UP is the BLOTCH OF RED

He would be the strong "tank" sort of pet. Using raw power of his fists, he would pummel the Painter's enemies into the ground...or canvas :P

100% Zbrush, messing around with Dynamesh and some Zspheres.

Next would be the Dash of Yellow...

From Ashes Part 2

It's Finished! It looks awesome too. I am proud of it. Purely Zbrush, success!

I have many other projects lined up that I have written down and am thinking of sketching and do other research and develop the ideas.

From Ashes Part 1

After the angry crow bust, I decided to go a step further and sculpt a much more complex model with one of my favorite mythical creatures of lore: The Phoenix. Using several sources of inspiration I found on DeviantART, Google Images, and a guide in The 3D Art & Design Book, I started building my own version straight in Zbrush. I am mixing different things into it such as Zspheres for the main body, Shadowbox for feathers and other small tidbits, and my favorite Dynamesh for the wings, eyes, and in the future, the flame/smoke platform.

Its turning out to be a very fun project! Just need to add a couple more feather/flame layers then the platform of smoke and ashes.

Angry Bird

For the foreseeable future, I have decided to make models straight from Zbrush. This is something somewhat new for me. Usually I go from the base model from 3DS Max to Zbrush, but for now I am going to sculpt a couple things solely in Zbrush with a few techniques I don't normally use such as Shadowbox, Dynamesh, and a couple of mesh brushes.

This is one such model. At first I wanted to make a dragon, a classic example of a sculpt straight in Zbrush. But then I decided instead to make a bird man guy thing. Angry of course.

Made with Dynamesh in Zbrush.
Used a couple feather alphas as well.
All in all, took about 3 hours.

Eureka Seven Part 2

I've been not very good at keeping up with updates lately. I had recently finished Eureka, and I'm *ok* with the result.

I have issues with the face, but thats a challenge for another time.

Eureka Seven Part 1

After Minerva, I had been working on multiple models. However as I completed each base model, I had moved on to the next. I will probably return to the other ideas in the future, but for now, I present a character from the anime/manga Eureka Seven: Eureka.

This is the base model of course done in 3DS Max, with texturing work done in Photoshop.

I am currently working in Zbrush, however, I am not aiming for realism. I am trying to keep a simple anime/cartoony-ish style this time.
