I tried to change a bit the body according to what kryssmen said although I'm not yet happy with the form of the body. But I didnt want to go to the typical dragon. I wanted to play a bit more with the caracteristics of dragons and also give him a water looking and ferocious ofc ^^

C&C welcome

I like the serpentine face but I feel the neck needs to be elongated .... right now he seems more dog like.

yes the slaves will be Asian.
And I will work on the poses a bit in zbrush to get a more relaxed look to them. May cut back to just two slaves as well; 1 male and 1 female, have to see how time issues work out.
thanks for the advice..

ok now have my project divided into 37 sub tools and will be around a 24 to 27 million poly sculpt when complete..
wish me luck lol

shes in zbrush now and ready to begin...

Yeah, will be in the mountains, with some sakura tree

I love how you guys are incorporating their environments into the sculpts as well.
Just don't spend too much time on the environments, they can sometimes be more detailed and time consuming than the actual creature.
I'd rather you make a rough set piece that "if" you have time in the end you can go back too and pollish up then.

Heres what I've done so far.
It is an Amanojoku. Kind of small Oni.

Sadly my home PC blows my work PC out of the water... i cant do any really hirez stuff till i get it home....

Playing around with some texturing and paint. Think I am going to re do him for a more realistic look..

my wip

I like it, nice job look forward to seeing more. I hope to have some new textures and pics to post later tonight...

[karmajf]

kryssmen: Really cool men the face says it all keep it up

Farouce: looking good try to watch some anatomy pdfs, they are really helpful in giving a more realistic look. One thing i notice it's the abs, humans have a six pack but the top ones(i think) are really undeveloped

G-Luccas:Impressive work on the tree How did you do it? It's all subtools In my option I would change a bit the scale and the rotation to give a more random look Good luck

Any of you guys know how to work with maps? I'm creating the seams in zbrush, uv master to create the maps, but when I had them in 3d max, In some angles I can notice the seams :S any idea how to fix it? thanks in advance ^^

[G-Luccas]

karmajf- thank you my friend. About the tree, I've used alpha and zphere, and the leafs are one subtool. I made one, duplicated it, and merged them all together. About the tree's position, I've made some tests and I'll post them soon.


if you post some images, hope i can help you

[karmajf]

Thanks for the help G-Luccas

Here are the maps, and the problem were the seam joins, also the face looks pretty crappy xD .

oh and possibly I'm doing all wrong cause i'm self learning this

[Farouce]

Thanks, I appreciate the advice and you are correct humans do have a six. Was kind of going for a bit of a different look. If you think that it is not working I may be inclined to change it..
Here is the reference pic I was using .

update...
still playing with colors and textures..
G-Luccas got the reference thanks..
don't know that I have time to make changes for this, but will take advice for future projects..
