Character Study

Here is my latest character study sculpt. Started off as a quick sculpt that I took a bit farther with exploring fibermesh for hair, eyebrows, and eye lashes.
Enjoy.

The Devil Contest

So I spent about 3 work days on this guy for a freelance contest. I did not win unfortunately but thought I would share my work here as well. The gentleman who held the contest says he will be holding more in the future (granted this contest the winnings was small, but I did enjoy the subject and having good concept to work from). The last image (colored one) is what I was working from.

Concept that was provided.

ArenaNet Character Art Test

I just finished up this project. It was a great challenge and a good start to updating my portfolio. I've submitted it for ArenaNet's Character Art Internship. I learn a lot and look forward to my next project to see the improvement I've made.

Javelin Turntable

Here is my latest anatomy study. All done within Zbrush. My main focus was the anatomy, with side work on props such at the javelin, shoulder strap, and his undergarment. I will state that I did spend what I feel was too much time on this piece, but I did learn quite a bit through the process. I hope to transition all that I did learn into my future work.

Enjoy.
