the old schools sometimes are the best my friend, or at least I think everyone should go there for a while, before choosing a different direction (I am also at a very old school and I’m having a blast there)
That last sculpt is looking great. Are you planning to do the whole body?
hi NR43,I’m not sure that I’ll do whole body.I started it from a sphere and then it became a head and then the torso and now it takes too many polygons so I hard to go on the res of body.lol.Because I don’t know the technic to make 3d model with lowpolygon before.I think I’ll look for some good tutorial for 3d and maybe i have to leave him like this if I can’t solve the problem about polygon.:shrug:
thanks for dropping by.take care:)
Hi…Thitipon…
GREAT for a first try in 3d…I think you’ll be a natural at it in no time.
Im pretty new at 3d myself, so I can’t help you out on the technical part that much…i’m using Z BRUSH,…not sure how the MUD BOX program works, and how it is diferent from Z BRUSH, but the basic principles of sculpting are the same in each program I think.
The way that I have been aproaching it, is to really get the facial planes / bones, and skull established right from the start, consentrating on the underlying bone structure, while the model is still in a low poly form, with all of those nice facets exposed…I use those facets to creat the different planes,…just like you do when your blocking in a painting, with rough forms that can later be refined…saving the details for last…Once the skull and face are established, I block in the hair, in the same manner, taking advantage of all of those nice low poly facets to creat the forms / volumes of the hair. I don’t even know if MUD BOX has those low poly facets that I just mentioned,…if not than disregard what I just mentioned…
Just my pesonal opinion here…
Your in a perfect position and place, to study some of the greatest sculptors that ever exsisted…Bernneni, ect. ect…If I were in your shoes, I would be doing alot of studies from those sculptures that surround you where your at, in trying to master 3d rather than working from photos…just a thought that crossed my mind while writing this…
Anyway,…It’s GREAT to see you posting in here again, and i’m REALLY looking forward to seeing where this 3d that you are entering into leads you to…SHOULD BE GREAT …I THINK…
TAKE CARE

hi Glenn.Thanks a lot for your reply.I don’t know much about the mudbox too.lol.but i’m it’s good to learn more about it.
I didn’t follow the step of the plane structure before the details coz i dun know anything at that time and I used only a basic tool to model.and without any tutorial so i wish i could find a way to reduce my too much polygons:banghead: or if i can’t i am ok to start another piece with no being mad.and ofcoz I will be careful about the smart step.
anyway,like you mention here are a lot of masterpieces around me and i am lucky enough to be able to see them closely.so I usually spend times outside to see.to draw,to take pictures.it would be so good if now i am already good at 3d and i can bring my computer to model some great masterpieces somewhere in town…However I am so happy here.
take care
