Thanks Elar! Couple of plans really, since I can pose him however I want, I was thinking of doing a full statue print of him in several poses.

I also want to offer the head as a headsculpt to the people on here (if they are interested) including the bio etc.

Last but not least, looking to have this guy animated soon!

Thanks Ecko!

I was feeling ballsy last week, and I posted an {older) WIP on Steve Wang's (Creature Creator/Stan Winston's Protege) wall on Facebook. And he replied yesterday!!! Totally awesome!

Here's what he said:

Steve Wang - Creature Creator Hi Ralph, I think it's looking cool! It just needs to have more details which I know you are working on. The dreds could probably be dispersed back a little. It feels like it's bunching to the front. But keep going, it's getting there. Thanks for sharing!

UPDATE:


Awesome news! Big Zbrush update today! Allowing me to do lots of cool new things with the software! Here's a quick example:

No photoshop involved in that image! It was all rendered natively. Craziness!

[Ralph_Sutter]

lol Thanks Elar!

I was having so much fun with the render that I did, that I decided to turn it into an illustration. Now to actually finish the damn model Should be a while before I post any updates.

Here's the result

[Ralph_Sutter]

Hey guys!

Here's another update!

Messed with his proportions quite a bit. He's now quite a bit taller and lankier Also, the dreds are now more sparce and fall a little more naturally.

Let me know what you think!

 

[topknot]

Ralph, is this the biggest project you ever worked on? Man I have been playing with zbrush and 3ds max and it is some hard stuff. Hats off to you on such amazing work. He's getting there, and I can't wait for this to be done!

 

[Ralph_Sutter]

Hey Topknot! It definitely is one of the biggest ones that I have worked on so far

 

[Ralph_Sutter]

Here's a big update to his paint, proportions and gear:

 

[Mr. EcKo]

Geeeezus Ralph. This beast just keeps looking better and better. The paint looks awesome
