Concept - Human Survival suit - WIP
Hi guys! As one of the masterclasses are about creating concept for production, I decided to try to create a suit which the humans need on the planet if they want to survive, as the gravity is much stronger on this planet, which I am not going to talk about now. However, Quite happy with the result, so far, and I really enjoy this kind of work. Where I try to create something new and still trying to solve the puzzle if it will actually work. No, it won't now as it still in the concept phase, but you know, have some faith!

Not sure what to do with the legs, but here is a quick concept of what I think I might be going for!

African Male - Update - WIP
After some feedback from friends, I realised that the skull was just to low and my african male looked more like a neanderthal which is a pre extinct dead guy.. Race.. Anywho, so here is the change :) Still open for feedback, but I think I'm closer now than earlier! I have not gone into creating details, only the big shapes and overall form, just to mention that.

Homework - Facial muscles - African male
Quite satisfied with the results and progress throughout the day! For the muscles I used zsketch, were yesterday I used curveTube insert mesh brush. They have both pros and cons, but I think the zsketch workflow wins, as it was mych faster! Anyways, here are the result :)

Face Muscle Study - Masterclass homework - WIP
Here is a quick render presentation of the muscle study. I am far from done and this is only a speed study. The tools I used are dynamesh, zremesher, standard, move, curveTriFill and curveTube. The two last brushes was used to create the muscle mesh.

Alien Concept 1 - A step further
Used zRemesher to retopo and uwMaster to unwrap.
The map I used are: normal map, diffuse, spec, ao, emissive and detail. I rendered the model in Marmoset and then some post in photoshop.
This is only a couple of hours work, and I am really pleased with the results. Also, I know where I can shorten down time and be more effective. As I tweek alot in Marmorset today and tried to render out displacement maps. Which took forEVER! And in the end I ended up NOT using it... Anyways. here are my results! :) (sorry, it seems the pictures are a bit darker in the browser then in Photoshop... Can't seem to figure out why!)
Hope you like it! And feedback is always welcomed!

Concepting for Production - materclass with Justin Goby Fields!
Doing a masterclass with Justin Goby Fields! Where he teaches us a workflow where you draw some silhouettes and then mess around with them in Photoshop. After I have finished the 2D concepts, I den start out with a sphere and start to concept in zbrush. I try to create similar 3D concepts in zbrush, however, I didn't use the 2D concept as reference, as much as I should. So I only got the inspired of it.
Model 1 is the first model I modeled, and the second and third are snake hook versions off the first one.
I got really happy with the result, and these are the first concepts of many to come! I have learned much about the process and workflow already, and the class has barely started! :)

First Homework - Masterclass 1
Doing a masterclass with Kris Costa ( http://www.zbrushworkshops.com/master-workshop/character-creation-with-kris-costa )
The reason for me taking this class, is to get to the next level in 3D and sculpting.
The first homework, was to create three different skulls. The reason for this, was to understand where and how much of differentes there is in a skull. Its so easy to think that a skull is the same the same, however, this is not true. The general proportions are generally the same, however, these can also vary. As you can see in my result, the differences is quite big between the african male, asian male and female!

Learning new ways of using Zbrush!
After seeing Ryan Kingslien's live Hangout session today, I learned about how I can use zbrush in a more artistic way. He showed us how he would go about creating a rose, where he used, primitives, radial symmetry, panel loops, polygroups, subTools and couple of more tools.
This is my result! And It was really interesting to create something entirely different that I usually do :)

Mech Police
Wanted to learn couple of new techniques about concept art, where i make a hybrid between 3D sculpt and Photoshop. I sculpted first a mech in Zbrush, and rendered out several passes as used blending mode and draw on top of it, and this is the result I got :)
I wanted to learn more about photoshop and how i can use it in my workflow. I used between 45 and 60 min on the sculpt as I had no idea what to create and as I don't have any experience with mech sculpting.
However, got really satisfied with the result and want to continue this workflow! :)

Iron Man
Update on the Iron Man, forgot to post the final picture earlier as it has only been on my portfolio page, however, decided to upload it here as well. I wanted i learn about hardsurface modeling/ sculpting inside zBrush, and choose the Iron Man as my personal conquest. This is how it turned out and I am quite satisfied with it!
The model is modelled and textured by me. Used zbrush for modelling and dDo for texturing. The renderering and lighting however is done by a really good friend of me, Jørgen Herland (http://herlandgraphic.weebly.com/).
Together we did this wonderful piece, and for further work, the idea is to make new uw's and use multimaps, and not just one as we have used now.

Samurai Update - WIP
So after couple of weeks, the samurai is finally taking form. It has been a hassle, but also incredible fun!
So what have I learned during this process? Well, I have learned more about the insert-mesh-brushes and how to use them efficiently and not killing the computer in the process. And also how to create my own insert-mesh-brush.
Anyways, here she is (yes, the idea was she is supposed to be a girl/women, however, she looks more like a young asian boy...)
