This thing is getting addictive. Zbrushing is quite a fun thing to do. The only problem is I’m still not quite familiar with the whole software. But at least now I can make simple models by utilizing zSphere and buildup process. This time around I learned how to texture map on a finished model (Although mine’s not quite finished due to the lack of time to invest to fine tune the mesh)

Here are the steps I took:

1. Develop simple zSphere with all important parts (Nose, ears, eyes, etc)


2. Start sculpting and keep checking the wire-frame of the mesh


3. Pre-render the model with simple plastic material


4. Develop some sort of texture on the model itself


5. Begin to use projection master to create the look I need


6. Finished render from another angle


7. Keep rotating and see the rest of the model


8. A closer look at the texture that wraps around the model


Next Time I’ll try to merge the face with previously created armor (Not sure how that would look though).

Spent half an hour more and redid everything from scratch in the attempt of getting a better understanding of the program. This is what I got.

I decided it's time to combine the 2 pieces of models together; the head from this entry and the armor from this entry.
