Videos

Since I do much of my concept work using my ZBrush application, I’ve decided to add a VIDEO page to my website. Many of the videos I create here will consist of displaying the progress of sculpts, along with some video portfolios I am in the process of creating. You can also view these, and my other videos on my YouTube page.

“George”

Continuing with my series of ZBrush creature sculpts, I decided to create “George.” I wasn’t sure what I wanted George to be when I started, but as I built him up, I realized I wanted to create an amphibian-like monster dude.This is the my first time to utilize ZBrush’s body parts insert brush to create a body, typically I use a preset body mesh, but I was very pleased with the results — and will more than likely use this insert brush again for future models.

“Prowler”

This is a creature sculpt I created of an alien cat-like beast.

“Waldo”

This is a creature sculpt I created after drawing up a very simple sketch of an ideal I had. “Waldo” is a fantastical creature that I may use in a future illustration.
