Puertasaurus Reuili (model/animation)

Hi

it’s been awhile since I lasted on Zbrushcentral, ah well, here goes :
This is a model and animation of Puertasaurus, a huge sauropod dinosaur from back in the day. I’ve used it mainly as a pitch for an animation project next year.
My personal goals were to get in touch with Zbrush again (it has been awhile…first time Dynamesh/Zremesher user, it rocks!) and to learn Maya Muscle.
Modelling in Zbrush, Texturing in Zbrush and Photoshop, Rigging,Animation, Rendering in Maya, compositing in Nuke.
I’m especially amazed with both the Dynamesh and Zremesher features with which this project skyrocketed as some point in quality (compared to my previous sculpts).

cheers,

Beautiful work :+1:

Had another go at the Puertasaurus model during the christmas break. Updated are especially the animation, model and textures.

Damn…those are NICE!

And I just STOPPED collecting 3DWorld magazines a few months ago, I switched to 3D Artist (namely for the free dvds which 3dw stopped giving out). Oh well, guess i could look for the online version.

Absolutely stunning…thanks for sharing
