Update

Done more with the face and upper body ^^

New face

I made a new face for the Chagrian that I think has a lot more going for it, what do you think?

I did a simple photo edit to get an idea of where I'm going ^^

Chagrian progress

Here are some updates on my Chagrian Sith Lord ^^

I really don't like Dynamesh, just can't get it to work for me.

Here is the current Face.

Spent most of this evening working on retopologising the Dynamesh ^^

Old 

New

More in a day or two ^^

Four Hours in

Took a brake from the SWTOR beta to make this, think I spent about four or five hours on it this far.

Initial blocking of the head done in sculptris and the rest is Zspheres/Dynamesh in Zbrush.

SW project ^^

Design for a character me and a frieand are going to use in a portfolio piece ^^

Chagrian WIP

Hey guys been working a lot on my drawings latly, I'm terrible at color so I think I'll work on that the coming weeks.

Goblin character sheet

Made the goblin template for the short film, all outfit variations will be designed on on top of this template. I will make a chunky version to.

GOBLINS!

Incase you don't know me very well I am quite fond of Orcs Goblins and similar creatures, so me and a few friends are now making a fun and violent short film with goblins as its main characters. Since non of us are animators nor has the interest in being one we have decided to go with Motion capture. We have our own mokap and sound studio so this is going to be fun ^^

Goblins are being designed at the moment and I made this picture to try out proportions but we might try to go for something a tad more original then this generic design ^^

The last 3 weeks I have been involved in a project that I will try and get some stuff online tomorrow.

Star Wars!

Hey guys just got the release date for SWTOR a game I have been following since it was announced and I'm very exited about it ^^

So I decided to make myself a Ithorian not a 100% accurate but I made it without internet so it had to be from memory ^^

Green is BEST!

I made a goblin a few days ago and felt like making another one more similare to the warhammer 40K Gretchin.

Please tell me what you think ;)

Protoss!

Hey guys we had a sculpting challenge again today and the theme was to make somthing cute and cudly. After that I had to reeinstate my manhood by sculpting a manly and bad ass Protoss! Coufh!

The Protoss is unacurate in many ways but it is cind of hard to work from memory, No refrence used on either.

Goblins got my teeth!

Hey guys, had another quick practice today in between my other work.

Just a quick practice before bed.

Thinking about remaking the Ork model I made early last year Just a lot more brutal looking and a lot more finished. Might put the whole guy on a base to if I find time ^^

Not going to use this head.

Here is the old model just for fun to.

And finally here is some sort of Alien creature I was fideling with a couple of days ago.

Friendly Sculpting Challenge

Me and Odin decided to compete today and the theme was Mortal Kombat. I decided to do Scorpion and he made Sub-Zero. We will do more of these as they where grate fun and I learned a lot ^^

40 minutes sculpting ^^

Back to school

New year new possibility, I've been drawing some designs for the thunder people, A race for my fantasy project but not really sure when i will make a model of it.

Magne a buddy in class showed me a new program today called Sculptris, a pretty awesome small 3D program I have been working on today.

Made this Ugly Alien guy, not sure if I'll finish him but sort of like him so I think I will put in a bit more work on the guy ;)

Going to try and make a new post every Thurday or Friday from now on to show of the weeks work.

Becoming a better artist.

I've loved art since I was very young, but I have never been able to draw the way I want to myself.

I have now decided to work hard the coming school year and I mean hard. I begin now with a series of exercises I've designed for myself.

1: Draw 50 dynamic pose sketches, then pick 5 I like and make them into characters.

I'm going to try and finish this task in less then 3 days.

Blogg posts with no pictures are boring so here is some of my recent work ;)

Timelaps and Mask ^^

Here is an update for the character. I have begun making his mask, but I will not be able to work on him further for a while, I am currently in the middle of moving to my new place.

I have recorded most of my process of the sculpting so far, here is my base Mesh that I made in Maya and part one and two of the sculpting process.

Will be a while untill next update ^^

Lets get Gruesome ^^

I have been a fan of the Mortal Kombat franchise for years now and I have wanted to make one the characters a long time.

I asked what people wanted to see in a forum and they said Kabal and Skarlett.

So I started with concept art.

I started sculpting Kabal and I have recorded my process, I'll post the time lapse in a later post. 

I decided to model his whole face and make a version with and without his face covered.

Here is a quick paint over to get an idea for the mask.

More in a while ^^

The Iceman comet

After many days of hard work I am finally finished with my model, I have literally been up all night rendering ^^

I am really happy with this, it really is my best work yet.

Lets get some color into this bleak existence

With google as a resource I found several photographs i used to projection paint a lot of
the armour. Several smaller pieces like the stitching I painted with a regular brush.

In a attempt to get some meaning into his armour I wrote in English with a Rune font.
I wrote "Ice" "priest" "All hail the never breaking ice"

To pink, blue is lucky

I was unhappy with the skin I projection painted from photographs onto the model.
My initial plans where to tint them blue and add slight variations in photoshop,
But the results where poor, so i decided to paint the skin from scratch in Zbrush.

I ended up with a 4k texture map that I manged to make wuite detailed.

Finished Iceman model ^^

After making a few alphas and a lot of work with tiny brushes I have finally reached a point in the process where I feel ready to start textureing the model ^^

I begun texturing the model with photos as a base with the intention of tinting it blue to get his ice skin.

But after some testing I found out that I just lost to much texture information. I am now in the process of repainting his skin from scratch ^^

Tonight's forecast; a freeze is coming!

Hello I have made a number of changes to the character, first of all he is no longer so muscly as he was.

I have made the base mesh for his armour and I have been detailing his chest and belt.

The thought behind his shoulder armour is that it is a sort of altar that is used for prayer before combat, quite literally making him an extension of his gods will when he is in combat.

The material both his shoulder and belt is made of is a special light blue and rock like material that is possible to shape as clay once it is infused with mana, when the sculpting process is finished it becomes as hard as steel and not possible to reshape any further.

Ice to see you

Work in progress of my iceman that seems to have had a few steroid injections since concept art.

Still need a lot of work, think I will make a paint over soon.
