Yet another human skull study

I made this in ZBrush. It still needs some refinement, but I thought I would post it anyways in order to get some feedback on the basic shape and proportions.

phanaeus Vindex

I felt like modeling a beetle yesterday, so here is the start of a model of phanaeus Vindex, more commonly known as the Rainbow Scarab. I started out by gathering as many references as I could, and then I set up the scene in Autodesk Maya 2010. Next, I sculpted the details in ZBrush. I made some final changes in Photoshop to the textures, and created a basic specular map. Finally, I imported the model and textures into the Marmoset Toolbag to render it.

I imagine that I will further modify this model sometime soon. I also plan to do a lot more traditional work, especially acrylic painting.

The Extange

I started this in the painting program GIMP last night. I might continue working on it.

WIP Roman General

I decided to make another character model for my portfolio, so I created a Roman General. Here is my progress on it so far, I did realtime renders of it in the Marmoset Toolbag. Software I used included ZBrush, Maya 2010, and Photoshop.
