Awesome work Randall!
That's some dedication you have putting that level of attention into each piece.

Very inspiring stuff!

Looking forward to the next update!

[brokencow]

MacTire - It's kinda cool hear people say that. It just keeps getting deeper and deeper with detail the more I do these. That said, I never really show off the 100% view, and it was all for web before. Just hoping that I would get the best amount of detail doing it as big as I could.

I'm looking forward to completing this more so because I have a lot more interesting paintings I am going to live stream. Lots of concepts, and lots of environments! It should be very interesting! Off to work, look out for a livestream tonight.

So here is my own 3d model of a head now. Still some things wrong with it that I can't even tell what is going on to fix right now. Have to finish up some things like the ear and then I'm going to drop it in zbrush and try to finish it up. Then it's off to hair and the body, clothes and all that stuff. but for now i'll have to get back to real work :/

[brokencow]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v412/brokencow/art/mayahelp3.jpg
Got a problem of no ear going on, so I've stopped till someone can tell me what's going on here.

[brokencow]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v412/brokencow/basemesh.jpg
My other base mesh was wack and had no topology past the head. This one is more simple and has edge flow. Anyway. I'm ready for clothing, not sure about how to do clothing right now.

[kyubisharingan]

stop with the 3d :(

we want some traditional 2d art ;)

[SageTso]

Nice 3D models!

[alex_86]

Well... that was an interesting hour and a half. Thank you for the entertainment :)

Oh but do try to get some girl sketches in here, you know, to balance things out :D

[brokencow]

LIVESTREAM!

http://www.livestream.com/RandallWhiteis

Come see how I start a sketch?

[^_^]

kickass 2d, if topology is getting you down then look up a tut on zspheres and use them inside zbrush. I find they can produce a much more organic starting point than beginning with a basemesh from an app outside it. Plus that way you need not worry about the many problems that may arise from the base's topology.

[brokencow]

I will give that a shot on my next model, that sounds interesting and I've looked up more on it.

Put clothes on her, now I gotta fix them up along with proportions and ya ya ya

[Ivan Turcin]

uf... what a sketchbook...

[feeesh]

nice work as always, and cool to see you playing with Zbrush. I think her knees are a bit low though. :-)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v412/brokencow/art/shit.jpg
and I guess I can show this too. wibble wobble sketches.
Going to have an update on the zbrush model soon. I redid it from the ground up, yet again. At least i'll have a good workflow with creating these things if I get a job!

Going to make a lot of models and sculpts out of zbrush. Still learning the whole program though, so it's a bit slow. I got a head start with maya since I learned a lot from it in school, but pretty soon, i'll be doing renders and getting out of control!

[brokencow]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v412/brokencow/art/starcraftfanart.jpg
starcraft 2 fan art! This is just a quick start to it. I'm not sure if I posted the other sketch I did of it. Right now it's all low res and in black and white, I just threw some color on it to show the start of it. It's going to be a long time till this one is done. I've gotta get the bg done, the middle ground, the nydus worm, then all the zerg units coming out of it. Going to be crazy. I might have some other units in the mix fighting in there. I just want it to be epic and beat the hell out of all the other SC fan art out there :)

[fionkell]

Duuuuuude even your pages of studies seem to flow together seamlessly. Girlz.

I confess I am not too familiar with Starcrafty things but looks like it's off to a good start!

[aLDoDarK]

what a crazy work.. I loved your sketchbook! I'm just wondering how many hours you paint in a day?

[brokencow]

aLDoDark - I don't paint enough actually. Lately, not even once a day. I have a lot of problems with time. I don't get to work on things I'd like to for long enough because of either work, or stress that comes from working for so long. But at most, I ususally work around 4 hours on one painting. But I still can't finish anything in that much time.

[B-Ren]

This is the first sketchbook I ever clicked on when I first found CA over a year ago and I thought it was awesome and have been looking for it ever since. Fantastic.

[brokencow]

that's awesome to hear B-Ren!

Here is a thumbnail set for the portfolio I am going to create for 2011. Needs to be done before that time.

power was out for almost 4 weeks. came back on so I started on this again. Changed a lot as you can see.

[brokencow]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v412/brokencow/zombiegirl.jpg
had to draw this character out real quick to have something for ref on the model.
Still a lot of work to do on the model :/ so slow and new.

[Lyno]

15mins each

Playing with mudbox, it's amazing how face you can sculpt and get around.

[brokencow]

http://www.randallwhiteis.com/misc/bodyturn.mp4

more sculpting in mudbox.

[Dana_T]

Intense. Especially that black and white piece. I'm pretty much in love with your realism.

[Aveh]

How did that sc2 fanart turn out? I was pretty into it back in the beta.

[brokencow]

http://gorillaartfare.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/dirtysunday.jpg
quick image for dirty sunday.

aveh - still working on it. I hear there is a SCII fan art contest, if I have time I might finish it for that!

[brokencow]

http://www.randallwhiteis.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/asianlady.jpg
finished this lady finally. It's going to be in a book. So I hope it's nice enough.

[oma]

wauw.. ur work is wonderfull.

i like those last 2 images a LOT!!

[zhiao]

Beautiful work.

As far as zBrush goes, have you tried modeling from primitives or zspheres? You might find it to be a bit more intuitive.

[MaFeng]

Super interesting work, I like all the millions of different beauty I'm seeing.

[brokencow]

http://randallwhiteis.com/misc/BasemeshModel.jpg
http://randallwhiteis.com/misc/BasemeshLowRes.mp4

I'm working on adding subdivisions now and then adding all the details. I have a few more things to add, but I'm going to add then as I go. This is a much better basemesh than the last model I was using. I was also going back and forth learning at the time, so this new model is - I think - a lot better than the other for sculpting and as has a simpler base mesh geometry. :)

[brokencow]

Are there any mudboxer here that can help chat with me sometime?
I need to talk with someone who knows what they are doing for some speedy solutions to some problems I've been having. Searching endlessly online doesn't really help :(

[donalfall]

I wish I could help. You're still bringing it. These look awesome.

Meh, gonna finish this sketchbook up and repost later when I get all my freetime actually free'd up.

[Joyvenn]

Uhm…i'm a big fan of your work, but see to not subdivide/smooth too much your 3d models, else they look horrible losing their nice line work.
