I guess teleportation is a good beginning of a journey. Maybe not a very new method.

[rasamaya]

This would be a great one for good rendering layers, and a lot of post work, I would love it, although the journey is a little unknown, perhaps some luggage to be beemed with!


GoodLuck !

[komsa]

I've pleased that you can see so much in such sketch!
I think there's no luggage with traveller, this is gonna be like "Birth of Venus" (I'll refuse the "terminator posture")

[komsa]

I've refuse the "terminator posture", but I would like to use a burning sphere around teleported. In my case it's gonna be a cylinder! :)))) I hope they won't sue me! The sci-fi theme seems to me like a modern mythology, so I've found more inspiration in Botichelli's "Birth of Venus".

Also i've added accident victim in the scene for more dramatic mood and "beauty and the beast" associations. So, victim is a monstrous animal, some kind of fantastic reptile or amphibia. He choose the wrong time to stand on teleport platform :((

I thought that the composition of the previous sketch is too frontal and definitely not a 3D view. So I've made a "movie-frame" with other foreshortening.

[DP]

Hello there


I love your idea and very cool sketches so far :thumbsup:

one crit though - it seems more to me that this is a "The Journey ends - picture" more than the journey begins, maybe it's corrected with the new concept, but i think you should pay attention to it. so it's clearly displayed the the women is starting on the teleportation and not arriving, thus ending the journey

just my 2 cent... hope it's useful...

[komsa]

Sorry for alien english!!!

Don't think so! The point of teleportation is your instantaneous transmission in space, this is a very fast stretch in time and you just can't realize that you are in travel in this moment. So journey just begins when she's arrive :)))

[DP]

Ok i see your point. :)

it's gonna make a cool image no matter what ;)

Concept sketches of Mo (victim animal). Lying pose and side view for modeling. Hope it'll cause no sympathy :))

Great concept, waiting the 3d modeling

Here's a first draft of the scene with linked boxes that should define a posture of an animal. And the girl :-) Let's call her Matilda :-)

Here are some new adds in scene. I've broken Mo in pieces and linked them to lay out the pose.

[se7enthcin]

Nice modeling. I like the start but I have to question the subject of the image. I agree with Dennis. You might concider adding an element or changing your idea a bit. It does seem more like the journey ends. But I like your concept sketches and setup of the scene. It will look cool either way.

[komsa]

Thanks for your interest. I think i'll defendin' my point in "ending and starting" doubts of this scene. :) Isnt' it fun to apear suddenly on unknown planet, standin' on old desolate teleportation platform, naked and surrounded by jellyfish-mushroom-like lianas and fresh corpse of monster? I think it's a good start for journey to get out of this shit! :)

There's a modeling of the corpse sticked from parts. I've rigged the clutches and i'll try to give them a writhe position.

[CryingHorn]

Interesting concept, I like your monster sketch and the modeling is great too so far

Here I've added some light to the scene to take notice of where it's gonna be discernible details. Also, I've changed the postion of the clutches.

[freddylierman]

I like the idea.
This is going to be a jungle type environment right ?
I like that stuff, lots of room for detaile :)

Good job on the modeling so far, and good luck :p

[komsa]

Thanks!
Yes, it's gonna be jungle-like environment with mushroom-jellyfish-like plants.:)

I've added new detailes in scene such as plants and model of girl in "Venus pose". Also there's a draft lighting. It will determine a fading of details from center of composition.

I've rigged a model in haste. Will fix the joints and muscle shapes now. Also here's draft shading with in-progress texture.

Vey nice modeling and texture;) , but I think her arm(left) looks a bit odd, out of proportion to me...

Here's first diffuse map of monster. Just tryin' to find colors and shapes of pigmentation patches of the skin. All done in layers so it's variable so far. Also i'll use those layers in particular for stenciling bump and specular.

some detailes to mo (no bump meanwhile) and draft coloring of the scene...

[Womgoose]

Lovely work.
Might I suggest adding some vines closer to the teleportation circle that have been chopped off and are still burning?
Or something to really show that she has just beamed in to the scene.
Charred leaves, burning grass, small fires and stuff?

but maybe you had planned to do all that anyway ;)

[CHAMPWY]

Man, I like your models... very nice... Good Luck :thumbsup:

Hey, you got me! :))) Course there will be alot of steam and smoke and smouldering and jelly leaking... uff (don't know, why i've modeled so many details:hmm: )

Thank you man! I'll surely take care about her beamening in scene!

Hi komsa, nice organis details. Your creature nostalgicaly reminds me a deathclaw from fallout, great progress, I like your image so far. Good luck man :D

There is absolutely no need to apologise.
I understood you perfectly and besides, surely it should be I who is apologizing for not knowing/learning Russian ;)

awesome detail indeed! you're brilliant at this! LOVE the guts.

[JacquesPena]

Love the forest scene. Love it. Tryng to make a forest scene myself. Good zbrushing on the creature, very detailed. Sad to see the creature in that condition, but looks so good. Great job

[bkeiser3d]

Very nice Z- brush detail. I think you need to work on the beam, the problem with is beaming in is, telling the audience whether the character is coming or going. This can only be told by the reaction of the character or other characters in the scene.

Yeah, there's no work on beam at all meanwhile, just freedirect spot with volumelight. I'm thinkin' now about adding some new details besides pre-arranged. It's parts of the teleport platform and lil curious creatures around it.

I wonder, why those job-busies now???
However, i have a little progress with texture for monster (nothing to see in the meantime) and i'm still search the pose for the girl. There's couple refs for it from classic art. Like i said before i find a parallel between "Birth of Venus" and my teleportation but the pose of Venus lilbit not in right mood so i'm tryin' to fix it :) Actually i want to add some sculpture plastic form to my model when i'm done with her pose.
Interesting to know your thoughts about it.

Спасибо на добром слове:)

Если ты работаешь в максе, в частности в editable poly, есть несколько способов: например при помощи weld (modify/edit vertices) или target weld (там же ). Хороший способ--на уровне border с помощю bridge(modify/edit borders), выделяешь дырки на обоих элементах и жмёшь бридж--он сам выстраивает пояс эйджей между дырками, зашивая их.
Успехов:)!

Don't be so sad, i think you can find a lot of live beauty in Baku :)
But of course i want my model to look alive. Maybe such idealistic manner even preclude perceiving her as a live person...

I really like the left hand 3d pose- I think it works really well,it's just the position of the head is not quite right- I think it would make a big difference if you turned the head front on, and either had her looking directly at the viewer, or looking slightly upward to the sky. marvelous work mate!

Thank you Mauro. I don't think that the hair plugin is useful in my case. The head of the girl is gonna be about 150 pixels wide on picture, so i'm goin' to model it. I want to make kind of wet comb back messy hair.

Thank you Shake! You reveal kind of interesting idea for me about lookin' in the sky. I've made a little drawing of her in such pose(in the bottom-left), but i didn't thought it over completely. I think it might point her beaming in the scene. But it will lilbit far from venus-confident pose... i'll definitely try your suggestion, thanks a lot maaate!

Give me some comments if it worth:)!

[InTerceptoV]

Great texturing. It looks very realistic ... I bet it took some time to texture this. ;)

Good luck.

[oceanbluesky]

Hey Oleksandr, really love this image -- just wondering, why the cool pattern on your creatures tail shown in the lower right render doesn't show up in any of the other renders? Hope you're keeping that interesting pattern. Good luck!

[ThomasWest]

:wise: Sgurgle... It's a little bit splatter... so much blod !!

Good luck !

[ChewyPixels]

WOW...great texturing! :eek:

I know that it's not finished yet, but perhaps the insides should look more wet...if you know what I mean. Also, add some blood spattering around the wounds.

Looking forward to your next update. :)

[gpepper]

Excellent ! Great modeling and texturing !

[theWOODman]

Great modeling and texturing. Great detail. Only one thing though, the wounds seem a little too clean looking. If the animal were attacked by a beast, normally you would see more of a serrated edge around the wound area where ripping and tearing would occur.

Hey Oleksandr, really love this image -- just wondering, why the cool pattern on your creatures tail shown in the lower right render doesn't show up in any of the other renders? Hope you're keeping that interesting pattern. Good luck!

Thanx! I'm not sure about those patches it just a draft, but i surely place a better variant there.

:wise: Sgurgle... It's a little bit splatter... so much blod !!

Good luck !

Oh, thanks! I hope they wouldn't moderate me for this blood!

WOW...great texturing! :eek:

I know that it's not finished yet, but perhaps the insides should look more wet...if you know what I mean. Also, add some blood spattering around the wounds.

Looking forward to your next update. :)

Thanks, you're right, there's no specular map yet but i'll make it from bump certainly. It's adjustable about blood, but i don't want to divert attention from girl by bright colours.., :)

lovely gory textures !! fantastic work, I can see you've put alot of time in.maybe if anything you could make the leg bone stand out more(looks too flatly sliced), either with displacement or geometry? love the skin shader too.

[komsa]

Excellent ! Great modeling and texturing !

Thanks, glad you like it!

Great modeling and texturing. Great detail. Only one thing though, the wounds seem a little too clean looking. If the animal were attacked by a beast, normally you would see more of a serrated edge around the wound area where ripping and tearing would occur.

Thank you! He wasn't attacked , he was sliced by teleportation energy post (column-like stream) But you're right, theres should be alot of scars that he got during his life..

Thanks pal! There's no displacement on this render, i think it would be looks better with it. Thanks for comment!

This is the pose of the girl close to final (lil problem with hands but it's close). I think i'm done with texture. Maybe i'll try to make hair blonder to decrease the contrast.

so how does that trick work? looks neat

so how does that trick work? looks neat

It's a skylight source that makes simulation of overcast sky lighting and brings shadows mostly in deep cavities. Hope it's would be useful for blending to detalise dark areas of the scene...

It would be nice to get some C&C or something :))

[Womball]

It looks really good! I would lighten up the darken areas so you can see all of your work a bit.

[Vedic-kings]

Looking good so far!

Like Womball said, the dark areas are to dark, lighting them up a little and you should have a great image!

[shakes]

yes, looks wonderful, but a bit dark on my screen, and I'm on a Mac.no crits on the comp- looks awesome.

[MT-Cup]

I have to agree in lightening up the surrounding area. Not much... I can't see those great flowers you made or any of the other great detail you put into your vegetation. No crits on the composition, it looks great.

[azazel]

I like the composition as well. Now for lightening it up... i'm not so sure about it. I like the dark, menacing mood you got now. But if you want to add light, maybe do it on a local basis, highlighting only certain areas. You can always explain the highlights by some sunlight peaking through. But uniformly brightening it up may not be a great idea.

Teleportation. The Journey Begins.
Is there a more perfect facility for transportation in space man ever invented than a teleporter? Maybe speed and distance are much more important than a landscape behind the window and an expectations of meeting... Further the progress breakin' through, less of space left for the human among progress achievements. Ironically, the whole power of the modern hi-tech perfect device, took our protagonist to the prehistoric stone age. She passed billions of miles, but it was a moment for her, and the real journey is only about to begin...
