I absolutely love your interpretation of the sketch. The angles in the mesh for the nose and brow are fantastic and realy bring the characters emotion to life. Great job.

Strike, Once again, I'm just awestruck at your work. Excellent image. I love the hard yet translucent feel to the skin in the first image. Almost a mummified skin appearance. Great work as usual.

I've not attempted it in ZB, however I have done a few in Lightwave. I did some test renders in ZB using some skin shaders I found in a thread here. See the first image below. Eventually I'd like to...
I've added a little more detail and just started doing some texturing with PM. Here is an update.

I've finally gotten the time to start using ZB2 and this is my first model. Created from Zspheres and then details added to the high res adaptive mesh.

aurick, thanks for the reply. I really appreciate it. I'm using the latest 1.55b rev of Zbrush and TM rev G. I've had ZBrush for a couple of years, but must confess I'm not as familar with it as I...
Hello, I've been having some problems getting AUVTILEs to play well with Lightwave and found this thread doing a search. I tried the method for generating my auvtiles outlined above by aurick, but...
Hello,
I've been out of the Zbrush loop for quite a while, but with the advent of the new displacement and normal map capabilities in the next version I thought I'd get my head back in the game....
The main drawback with Livemotion for me was it's inability to do shape tweening, which Flash does very well. I think this is still true for the latest incarnation of Livemotion.

Thanks Mentat7. In the absence of documentation for the moment many aspects of lighting in ZB remain obscure. This will definately be a help.

DMerchen,
Thanks. Yes thats my attempt at a woodgrain texture. I too my digital camera into the backyard and snapped a few photos. One of the base a palm tree and a few of the fence between mine...
I've been playing with Texture Master and think I'm beginning to understand things a little better. Here is a textured version.

Finally had a chance to over the weekend here to attempt something starting with ZSperes.

Ken,
Once again you continue to amaze. Do you live in front of your computer?

Thanks for the replies. I did some more playing around and think I have a handle on it. But I have one more question or point I would like clarification on, just to make sure I'm understand things...
Great job SkullCowboy. The textures look awesome. I too use Lightwave with ZBrush. I upgraded to 7.5 earlier this year and love it. The 2 programs compliment each other very well. I you want to see a...
Hello fellow explorerZ,
Until now I've primarily been using ZB for modeling and porting the model to Lightwave for surfacing and rendering. Since getting 1.5, I'm determined to get a handle on...
Thanks SC. Funny, in today's world we've grown so demanding for instant gratification. Patience has almost become non-existant. It probably stems from repressed memories of being a kid and sending...
I don't know about anyone else, but I would sure like to see a script showing how ZSpheres can be used for head modeling. With the limited time I've had with 1.51 it seems like the amount of detail...
Just thought that while waiting for 1.5 I'd post a WIP of the latest ZTOOL that I've taken into Lightwave and rebuilt a low-res poly object. Order if the pics is, ZTOOL w/basicmaterial, ZTOOL w/dots...
Now that we've had the anouncement, I'm wondering if the non-disclosure is off for the beta-testers. Might we see some more of what can be done with 1.5. I need some nerve tonic to get me through to...
I'm always scouring the web for reference material related to my latest project. The other day I came across a site thats one of the best I've found for reference photos. You can find it here:

I can see the whole set of Canisters being sold on QVC in the near future. :D
Mentat7,
I just sent you the file again. Let me know.

Hanuman,
I believe you sent me a private message with a request for the PDF. I sent it. Did you get it?
