Grumpy Creature Warrior Head. (c) 2013 Michael J. Barnes.
I am still working to build up my illustration portfolio. As such, I have decided to create a fantasy warrior. I have also decided to log my progress on my blog. So for the next few days I will be sharing my progress here, as well as inviting any feedback as I go.
This project began with a very rough concept sketch (and I mean a very rough sketch that I drew up during my lunch hour at work — shown below).
A very rough concept sketch
Starting with the head, I began sculpting out the shape and features of the head. The video below shows a time lapse recording of the initial sculpting on ZBrush. Please note: This video is very rough. Fact is I am not a video editor :).
Next, I added details such as “bone” scratches and skin texture. This second video displays that process.
The next step is to sculpt the body, and I will post that process within the next few days.
