HARDCORE MODELING!: 80's Cartoon: MOTU Clawful model

[SteveTsang]

Hi peeps,

A quick update of work done in zbrush. I've mostly been working on the head and torso at this point. I've been finding the head a bit of a problem and have restarted it already but hopefully I'll be able to find a something I'm happy with. I plan on doing the teeth seperately.

very nice base mesh and sculpt, so far :thumbsup: I must learn Zbrush :)

Thanks SNoWs, Senseicapi and REZI for your words of encouragement.

An update for Clawful so far:

I've started working on his arms and touched a bit on his legs. I've also made the armlet that goes on his left wrist and some general tweak with his chest and strap. The head is slightly different from before as I've been trying to get an even distribution of points on his head so I've retopologised it. I've altered the pose from the original base mesh so the model matches the original pose of the statue better and also stretched out proportions but this will be on-going till I find a better likeness still.

ooo! That is some nice zbrush eye candy. The model looks flawless to me so far. Cheers!

Really good work here Steve, you've nailed the art of Zbrush very quickly. I will use you as a source of inspiration. Keep it up, I'll be checking back often. Should be a fantastic piece once finished... Now make sure you finish it :wip:

something I seem to fail to do when it comes to personal projects. Doh!

some of the proportions aren't quite there yet, but, as you said, its still a work in progress.

keep it up ..

Hi peeps,

Thanks waterlilly, simjoy, scottiman and wev for looking at my thread and posting the supportive comments, much appreciated :) Hey M477, how's it going?

Took a few days off work (holidays needed using) and have been busting my hiney with trying to make progress on the model so here are some update screenshots. I've made some changes to the porportions of the model with the use of the transpose tools to better match the original sculpt, this included bring up the head and trap muscle area and making the body more narrow. The legs have also been tweaked slightly. I decided to change the right claw from the original sculpt as it wasn't really making any sense for me - I took some crab references to help reshape the claw.

What happened to all the images?

Cheers!
