Final Caveman turntable

The caveman is complete! I had a lot of fun with this guy. He looks angry, but he's probably just hungry.

Retopologizing Craveman!

Using NexTools to retop the caveman. Retopologizing allows high poly meshes to be baked at a lower poly mesh for use in game engines and other programs that have tri limitations.

Also, quads are easier to use in animation and proper geometry is crucial. Triangles are just not gonna cut it!



Polygroups.

Masking and grouping poly groups helps to edit and sculpt certain areas without messing up previously worked on areas. Adding edge loops helps separate them as well and makes them easier to make hard edges for armor and other hard stuff.

Arm..... fail

Yeaaaaah, an arm... began posing, the fingers got all mushy and dumb. Must revisit.





Caveman update.

Added a bit more "bulge" to his hands and some eyelids, as well as fixed his spine region.

Cavemaaaaaan!!

The final caveman sculpt! I had a lot of fun with this. Unfortunately, he had to lose the white tube socks. Bummer. But! Maybe someday he will be retopped and ready to animate! Could be a fun project.

Chris "Craveman" Holton

Totally deviated from my previous ideas and decided to see how my dad would look in CreatureBox style in ZBrush as a caveman!

CRAAAAAVEMAAAAANNNNNN!

Tribal ideas.

Concepts for the tribal character sculpt. I had CreatureBox as inspiration for the design style, so I stuck with a short body, big arms and small legs. It's fun thinking outside of your comfort zone! Thinking about using the spear guy as the sculpt. I just really liked his pose, I don't know why else I would do it. Maybe it's a horrible idea... I dunno. Maybe I'll use a combination of these guys, like the head on the spear guy. Or the spear guy with the ape like dude's proportions. BAH! We'll see!

CreatureBox style, pretty wacky! Enjoyable though.

First sketch doodle thing.
