Minotaur (Tutorial Link in First Post)

Wow… Seriously awesome. :slight_smile:

that is one awesome model

I can do this in my main application…its easy…but when someone did this entirely in zbrush…MOMMYYY…HELP MEEEE…

Awsome concept…even Ironman will think twice to face this one… :slight_smile:

Okay so I’m not usually a fan of simple ā€˜wow this is great!’ posts, but wow, this is beautiful. I don’t know if you’re still reading replies of admiration five pages in, but I quite enjoyed this. ZBrush and hard surface? Believe it!

I know it’s a lot of hours and a labor of love, but can you share how you started to work with hard surface forms? I’ve got a few in mind, but at first I want to create a few dozen forms, simple to more complex, get them to interact, etc and only then go at a larger piece.

Iight cool ill def wait for that tutorial, and see some of your tips… when you get a chance maybe you can comment on my first sculpt. Im a noob, but im very confident in my Zbrush future so far with first piece. I’m eager to read what artist on your level have to say… thanks

beautiful.:+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:

cool design… but how does it move?.. that mobile suit looks like a solid piece of metal… I’d suggest for you to make joints that looked more apparent… don’t get me wrong… the form looks really cool… but the suit needs function…

This is such an inspiring piece of work. I’d like to sculpt something like this as a suit and put it on! Way to go. Post some of your frame work if you have some time.

nice job.but the material is a little Simple:p

Simple? 1) why guild a lily? 2) lets compare this to YOUR work :confused:

His work has nothing to do with his opinion.

I completely agree with him to be honest. The modeling is terrific. The texture was executed very well. However it is simple. Everything is the same from the bullets leading into the gun, to the tubes, to the screws, and all the panels. He has these great little details that almost get lost due to the majority of it being the same color, to me it’s starting to look like a statue.

Can’t a statue be a work of art?:confused:

That’s a silly question.

Maybe you should be asking, was it the intent of the artist to convey this piece as a statue?

Ah Lombo, we are kindred souls. I balked at the what I believed to be was an unduly harsh and unfleshed out critique by YUNZEE an you responded in kind by remarking that my opinion was silly. Well done lad.

ā€œThe material is a little simpleā€
ā€œwas it the intent of the artist to convey this piece as a statue?ā€

less is more ladies and gentlemen. The intent of a good artist is what we see. This leads to top row. Normally. :lol:

pakcik666 > Thanks!
vfxart > Thank you very much! Today or tomorrow I will post a short tutorial on how I modeled and rendered Minotaur.
darkdevinci > I saw your sculpture and I liked it, but I think it needs some stronger and sharp lines or volumes because as is now is a little soft,
it might be a good idea to add some spider legs for sharp and straight lines?
NGVever > Thanks!
Brunel > Joints of this character I thought to be composed of several parts which together help to move limbs, the basic idea was to realize a high-tech look.
If I did done the joints in the classic way would not have the look of high-teck tehnology.
Riverbender > Thank you very much for yours nice words!
YUNZEE > Thanks! The materials I have treated more simply because they already had a very large amount of detail from the effect of worn paint, and if I would have added extra materials would have been all too full of details.
However the level of detail may be too high, I think.
Nancyan > Thank you man!
Lombos > Thanks! The response is similar to YUNZEE
michalis > Thank you very much! I really liked your sculptures and Z4 renderingS! Keep it up!

I love the modeling, it’s great. However, the texture on the first render is amazing!

You deserve top row! :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

This,to me is near perfect…the modeling and the textures.Especially that the textures are not overdone.

Hi, very nice model. nice details and nice render.
Can you please show the base model, before you started scupting.

Cheers :+1:

W O W this is a very good example of pro level hard surface texturing very good i would love to this as a tut
