It's gotta be the hand held probes they are holding.

Here's the final of the Wendy Wildstar piece:

I'm doing a lot of work in ZBrush right now. Some of it might lead to animation projects in the future but at the moment I'm using 3d meshes as a base for 2d images. This is an example, with raw geometry on the left and post work on the right:

I totally love your ZBrush work, BW! The only thing that is bugging me are her teeth. The bottom teeth seem to be too big/wide to me. But I totally LOVE her eyes and shiny mask!! And her nose is just right!

Keep up with the good work, BW! You are definitely getting better and better with each project!

Here's more work on Kitty's assets:


The hands and ears are really just roughed out and the strands of hair are a temporary mesh to help me visualize where I'm going to place things.

'Dem assets is lookin FIIII~IINE gurl.

Thos assets apparently rubbed someone the wrong way and the image got removed from Photobucket, lol.

Here's a posed update:


Moving things around messed up some of the detail I had sculpted earlier but it's coming along.

Two more views. I think I will be moving on to the 2d postwork next.





The second one could obviously be lit better but I think I will be going with a medium shot for the layout of the piece.

No tail on the kitty?

The tail is usually something I put in last after I've figured out where everything else will go. I'll draw it in Photoshop along with the hair, etc.

Here I started doing post work on the base render in Photoshop:

Finished image:

That turned out AWESOME!!

Thanks! I was trying to go for a rock and roll poster kind of vibe.

I can totally feel that. Mission Complete!!

(And trust me: I live in a college town, so there are always band posters all over the place. I see more than my share of them.)

That turned out pretty neat, BW!

Here's the color version:

Wow! Very nicely done.

Ok so I was working on an image for the sketchbook. It's the one of Vivace on top of the giant...rooster. In the process of working on it, I made the rooster robotic/steampunk and kind of tapped into a Wizard of Oz sort of vibe with the emerald city in the background. So Vivace would be Dorothy, the rooster would be a stand in for the tin man, and I was thinking of putting in two other cox characters to be the cowardly lion and the scarecrow.

Any suggestions? Doesn't have to be gender specific.

Oh, Idea! Wouldn't Airhead make a perfect scarecrow? =D
