So it's looking like this is done for now. would be cool to pose him next and built a bit of an environment for him to stand on. It was a lot of fun making this character. Is based off a Paizo Hobgoblin, and it's a mix of Wayne Reynolds art for the head and the out fit is my design.

Still a work in progress, but it's shaping up. I really like Substance Designer, once it's done there I'm going to take it into Substance painter to add effects, weathering, dirt, grim.

Rapper Zombie

A volunteer art test for Ember Studio's in Seattle. I guess I just wanted to see what I could do, I'd been making character concept art for so long, making from back side that I didn't know how my work would turn out. I made art that could be used on a Sale Screen, you know a menu page with buttons to press to purchase game credits. This zombie has a lot of gold, which would a pick up for the game, which is why I made a Rapper Zombie, though my first idea was to make a rich older lady but I though a rapper with gold chains would read better. This was fun to paint, and quick I think I did it in 10 to 12 hours, hard to say exactly.

Working an game character. Using Zbrush, 3dsmax, and Marvelous Designer, and some other tricks up my sleave. This is what I would call a medium rez character. It's an intesting place as at this point, I could go on to make a high rez version or finish what I have here. For the project I'm working on I'm planning on doing both. I'm testing a process where I made height maps to add geo detail for the baking. This is to avoid time in Zbrush and hopefully it will save time and look good. Considering the project doesn't require high rez movies and the characters in the game doesn't have lots of close-ups I think this saving time is more of the priority.






Just added a Goblinworks portfolio. I plan on updating with some of the newer work. If you get a chance check out the game,

All my other past work is accessible on the left side bar on my blog, take a look.

Alien Female renders

I made this to dust off my 3d skill and catch up with all the new stuff that's going on with 3d. I got to learn Vray, Substance Designer and Painter, and Marvelous Designer. Substance Designer is possibley the funnest and most powerful shader and procedural painting program, I love it, Painter is great as well. Marvelous Designer was easy to learn, and for the effort it provides so much more in return than any other 3d program can for the time it takes to learn it. I'm looking forward to using it again when I get a chance.




Here was the art I did for this.
