Oldman&LION...FiberMesh

[painzang]

Nice work on the feathering so far! Curious as to how you are going to achieve the look for the larger feathers as well. Are you planning on using a texture for the fibers or possibly using micromesh? I recently did a dodo bird using a different technique but not exactly how I would have liked it. It looks like your approach would better suit my bird so I would love to give it a try if you can share your technique.

Thanks and keep up the great work!

I've seen your work.
Very good.
I have tested two kinds of textures and micro-mesh.
Will be updated soon.
Thank you.

feather.. fibermesh test...
Feather fiber mesh was created.
This will be applied to the micro-mesh.
Is unnatural.. @,.@...

Beautiful. Would love to see how you did this.

Oh wow nice

whoa that looks gorgeous! I agree with Laurie, would love to hear more details
I really like your other stuff and timelapses too!

Beautiful feather! Would love to know how you achieved this with just fibermesh. I attempted one with fibermesh as well but wasn't able to get it to be quite as flat as you've achieved. Instead I created mine with S&H converted to poly. I did find though that the render times for using this method with micromesh were pretty long (8 core 3.6Ghz processor and 16 gigs of ram). You'll have to let us know the render length if you get good results.

Looking forward to seeing it!

edit: I guess it doesn't matter how much power you have since Zbrush is only utilizing up to 4 Gigs (damn 32 bit)

And micro-mesh is not suitable for the feathers.
Rendering takes a long time.
I will use as a texture.

Is how I made the feathers.

man you are a genius
thanks for sharing mate, this is great! really learned a lot from your eye material and of this, great use of fibers man!

Awesome! Thank you!

Tae-bong Lim thank you very much for the video. Right now, I look zbrush with a new perspective.

Cool!
