Been a while since I’ve posted anything online; figured it was about time to remedy that situation. Here are some projects from the past year; some for others, some for fun; will try to turn this into an occasional sketchbook thread when time permits.
The story behind this one; I was visiting some friends a while back, and two daughters (one about 5, one about 13) and a friend of the older daughter (also about 13) were drawing at the dining room table. I asked the youngest if she’d like me to draw something for her, and immediately the older friend piped up and said I should draw a dog… and the dog should have a giant squid in its mouth… oh, and the squid should have a bazooka. Did a quick 3-4 minute drawing for them, and later thought it might be something fun to do in 3d. Modeled in a combination of 3D Coat, 3ds Max, and Zbrush, rendered in Zbrush and Pshop (first real attempt at a Zbrush render).
Here are a few more pics of the work in progress, showing the polypainted models, the plain geometry, and the initial sketch.
