Hadopelagic King - WIP 2 - Cutting the Pieces

Decided to cut all his exoskeletal plates into different pieces so they feel more like... different pieces.

Next step will be to work on each piece individualy to push things further and add more details to the shapes.

Hadopelagic King - WIP 1- Getting the Idea

Taking a break from Wonder Woman. I miss sculpting creatures so I had fun this evening. Still a work in progress though, I'm going to finish it tomorrow... or should I say later? Wow... time passed. Anyway, here he is, the proud ruler of the abyss! The most noble crustacean! The Hadopelagic King!

Early stage when he had no face

Trivia: "Hadopelagic" refers to the Hadal Zone, the oceanic space from depth of around 6,000 metres (20,000 ft) to the bottom. The hadal zone is generally known to have low population and low diversity of marine life.... but what if...

Diana of Themyscira - WIP 19 - Topology and UVs of her Hair

Saved myself some days of work and used ZBrush's ZRemesher for the topology of the hair. I might optimise it more if it's too dense.

Diana of Themyscira - WIP 18 - Modeling & UVs of her Body & Head

Here's some UV maps

Almost done! Only the hair left to model! Probably going to use ZRemesher for that though.

Diana of Themyscira - WIP 17 - Face Update / Modeling & UVs of her Clothing

I decided to go with smoother shapes.

Diana of Themyscira - WIP 16 - Progress so Far

Modeled objects in light gray and ZBrush dynameshes in dark gray

I think it's getting somewhere.

Diana of Themyscira - WIP 15 - Added Leather Strips to the Body Armor

I added some leather strips to her armor. The idea is to get more secondary movement in the final pose, so, leather strips flying around during a combat move seem like a solution. Combined with her hair and lasso, it should add dynamism the the image.

For the occasion I made more variations of my UV checker to differentiate the UV sets, so.. here some free 4K checkers!

Alright, back at this project!

The geometry was quite mind boggling on the armor.

Black Metal Photoshoot

I was wondering how I'd look if I was in a Black Metal band so I tried something.
