Ditch the base and make a grave yard scene instead

thanks everyone. user added image

jay - i was actually thinking of an alleyway scene, maybe with a dog chewing on his leg... a graveyard would be cool too. hmmm... user added image

gster - yeah, a cenobite would be cool - you going to make one up?

chirone - i did some final renders, but i wasn't that happy with them. https://forum.simplymaya.com/showthre...&pagenumber=15

i'll probably go back to it, but at the moment i can't really look at it. user added image

Hey this should be a ton of fun once you get it in ZBrush.

Base mesh looks pretty good!

yay zombie!

i just got done reading the basic premise of the 'marvel zombies' short on wikipedia... pretty interesting.

so yea we know you'll do a good job finishing this up, but then the real challenge begins... making him do the thriller dance!

hey - sorry for the lack of updates - have been very ill with the flu. user added image

started blocking him. feel like i should maybe try to re draw some of his typology as it seems kind of bad - thought you could do that in zbrush, tho not sure how.

also, zbrush doesn't seem to be shutting down anymore, which is kind of annoying. it just freezes after i tell it i don't want to save the doc. ugh. not a good week. user added image
