crazy lady wip

Here's a zbrush sculpt based off a sketch of mine.  I usually sculpt messed up looking guys, so i figured i might as well sculpt a messed up looking lady.  Its still just a WIP.

One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish

Here's another fish guy I drew in ink and then colored with water colors.  Its based on the skull of a red-bellied piranha that I saw in the book Skulls: An Exploration of Alan Dudley's Curious Collection.  And speaking of fish, I made a simple game with angler fish for the barfcade game jam for Fantastic Fest, you can check it out here: http://eric-spitler.itch.io/fish-food

Bedlam Kickstarter Bobblehead

I made a Zbrush sculpt for the game Bedlam which is currently on kickstarter.  Go check it out now and give them some money!  https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/skyshinegames/bedlam
When the game is funded the bobble head I sculpted will be created and given to some of the backers.  The concept for the character was done by John Mueller.

Banner Saga Sculpt Update

Did a little more work on this and rendered a turntable.

The Banner Saga Sculpt

I liked the 2d art in the game The Banner Saga so I decided to try and sculpt one of the characters "Gunnulf" in 3d.  Sculpted, textured and rendered in zbrush.

Hello N0de W0rld

There's a new collaborative art project like Substrata, called N0de W0rld.  This time its a cyberpunk theme.  I'm messing around with a preposterous future where some people are simple machines.  your tv is a genetically engineered/3dprinted cyborg-person, your refrigerator is a person, your car, and even your toilet is a person :)  If you do a good job of being a toilet, when you die, your digitized mind is transferred to another cyborg and you are reincarnated.  eventually you can become a person, and then finally you can attain nirvana and become a body-less being in cyberspace or some shit like that.  here's a drawing of toilet-man.

Shootin your mouth off

Here's a zbrush sculpt and polypaint with some touchups in photoshop.  Based off a sketch in my sketchbook.

Fishy Guy

Here's some kind of fish creature I drew in pen and ink, and then tried to color using some old watercolor pencils and watercolor paint.  I forgot how much harder it is to color things in the real world :)  Its based off of the skull of a Gray Triggerfish that I saw in the really cool book called Skulls: An Exploration of Alan Dudley's Curious Collection.  For some reason the skull looked like some kind of pompous, royal fish guy.  I might try do a similar drawing of a piranha in the book.

3 weirdos from sketchbook to zbrush

Here are some guys from my sketchbook that I took into zbrush and sculpted and polypainted.

female head sculpt again

I'm back to working on this again.  I recently started polypainting and adding fibermesh hair to her.  Hopefully its recognizable as Evangeline Lilly, aka Kate from lost.  i'm still planning on creating a couple facial expressions for her too.

Wow thats annoying, they compress the hell out of this image and it removes all the freckles and skin details. :(

updated with a less compressed image

Weekend sketches and sculpts

I did some sketches of some goofy looking people saturday, and then started sculpting some of them sunday.  all of the sculpts are still wip.   not sure how much more time i'll spend on this stuff though.
