I began by adding pore and burlap texture to the trousers. however I don't want to add too much detail in case I end up with something rather realistic and not stylized.<br />

At the same time, I have been working on retopology of this guy.

<br />
It has been a busy last month with freelancing projects starting here and there, at the moment I have 3 going on, so time is scarce to do other things.<br />
<br />
At the moment, on a personal note I have 2 characters I intend to finish within a month, The Glutton King and Horace Bennett. ( if you remember he is the one from the mixamo contest that I didnt have the chance to finish. ) <br />
<br />
However I have a few shots on the Glutton King here to share, he is at about 60% done, needing an extra pass of detail, retopology, and texturing.<br />

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghpq6iKvHyMIS8zmIJlcW2S7UTbILoR5ckdZiCUdgPJMl0OZMTfWdoEwsaQeX54RdN2H7fG24F5V83EIP9PPf5q_z2g42ZBjskT3gP7MUuiyYx2-EbhMtXjMDYHTULeTGfvckaJc9kiHg/s1600/HB_Face+Sketches.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="433" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghpq6iKvHyMIS8zmIJlcW2S7UTbILoR5ckdZiCUdgPJMl0OZMTfWdoEwsaQeX54RdN2H7fG24F5V83EIP9PPf5q_z2g42ZBjskT3gP7MUuiyYx2-EbhMtXjMDYHTULeTGfvckaJc9kiHg/s640/HB_Face+Sketches.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
With the previous drawings, I was happy with the last one. So I made him Horace Bennett,<span class="userContent"> a happy, clumsy, charming, intellectual, drunk, fidgety scholar from London.</span> <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
I then moved to design the body based on the chosen silhouette.<br />

<br />
For company Horace Bennett takes company with him, an important lifesaver rugsack, full of tools that will help him on his dangerous travel.... ohh and gather the treasure from the manuscript.<br />

I finally started to participate on a competition at the Poly count community forum. Intimidating!!<br />
<br />
The brief for the contest consist in design and model a character, then take it onto Mixamo auto-rig software and use a preset animation. <br />
<br />
<b>The Brief: <i> </i></b><br />
<i> </i><br />
<i>In the early 19th century a mysterious book, the Voynich Manuscript,
made its world debut. Written in an unknown language the secrets within
are still debated to this day. Every generation has had its adventurers
take hints from the Manuscript’s broken ciphers and cryptic images. From
the high mountains of the Himalayas, to the lost jungles of the Amazon,
from cities of gold, to buried underworlds, those brave enough to call
themselves adventurers must be ready for the challenges the book alludes
to. Help us discover the great adventures of the past century and the
world’s most mysterious book.</i><br />
<br />
<b>YOUR MISSION</b>:<br />
<br />
Starting from the beginning of the 19th century up to modern day, create
an adventurer to seek out the treasure of the Voynich Manuscript. Will
it be a 19th century scholar from England, or perhaps a German code
breaker from World War One? A Chinese medicine man or a hired thug for
the Railroad barons of the expanding United States? Will it be a modern
day billionaire, searching for thrills, or the descendant of Voynich
himself? Use the greatest adventure stories you can think of as your
inspiration and create your ideal hero!<br />

Being comedic on my character designs, I decided to add a twist my version of the adventurer and I came up with this.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
Character: Horace Bennett <br />
<br />
Age 59<br />
<br />
Setting: 19th Century, London England.<br />
<br />
<br />
"Horace Bennett , an Englishman enlighten by the discipline of the
plants, is a renowned name in the botanical world, primarily due to his
discoveries of new species of plants.<br />
Being very intellectual, when he heard of the the “Voynich Manuscript“,
he automatically knew it hid information about his beloved plants,
maybe a healing plant, maybe a poisonous one or maybe a very rare
species.<br />
After many sleepless nights attempting to decipher the manuscript as he
expected, it provided him with information about a very rare species of
plant only to be found at the very center of the amazon Jungle, South
America.<br />
Being a botanist and not an adventurer, he thought to hire a
expedition, however as the thought was formed it was immediately discarded,
after realising the lack of coin on his pockets, all spent on whiskey
which served as a company horrendous nights being puzzled by the
manuscript. <br />
Now his only choice was to grab his botanical kit, disembark in Brazil
and venture alone to the heart of the dangerous Amazon Jungle in search
of this rare species of plants, which could make him some serious gold." <br />
<br />
here is where it all starts.<br />

<br />
I am surprised in a positive, The program has a clean layout, with the essentials tools, the brushes are used in a more traditional way, and often tricky. It has a lot of little tools that help your workflow, Such as tracing or reference tabs, where you can stick on your painting something to refer to. The menus are neat and user-friendly, but not as vast and detailed as photoshop. I am impressed with the program which I will be using from now on.<br />
<br />
Here is a my new caricature painted on it.<br />

Just a quick update with the final portraitRuben Martinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13223060769840243732noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-204452100761940284.post-41403270856386034092013-05-08T22:41:00.001+01:002013-05-08T22:41:57.725+01:00Work in ProgressI just wanted to quickly update, my blog with some more work I have been working on.<br />
<br />
Firstly, I decided to get the Beautician Character sculpted, so here I share few renders on the bust ( the body still needs rendering). I have used Zbrush for rendering purposes, as I have been looking into it.<br />

I like that thus far the character is communicating, a vicious, cruel disgusting and fat character.<br />

Next on the list is to create a Portrait, similar to those depicting Kings. A good piece of concept art to help me add some details.

<br />
Firstly, I have finally found a place in Portugal, a great flat that I share with Ivana, it has been quite a hectic month of moving, settling and feeling comfortable. i have now a division in the house which is my studio, as well as Ivana.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Secondly, I have a new family member, ( no baby on the way, no!) rather a artist-friendly beautiful kitten. which ironically or not is called "Snow". Because her mixed siamese breed.<br />
<br />

<br />
Thus far, she has controlled a lot of time in our lives, but the house is now kitten-proof. More than an animal she is a great companion. Damn, Ivana you turned me into a cat lover!<br />

<br />
Professional life has gone fine also, I have been a few freelancing projects where I have applied my character design, modelling and texturing skills. For my freelance clients I have been using Freelancer.com, which so far is going fine apart from their fees.<br />

Finally, I have also improved my sculpting skills and applying what I am learning on a more realistic version of my beautician character. Here is the progress on the head, it is only the arm to resculpt.<br />

<br />
I have began a new character inspired by the place I now live Mafra, Portugal. The character is a Glutton Imperial King, who is very cynical, cruel and disgusting. I will be posting some more progress so far here some initial sketches.<br />
<br />
<br />
Finally Atom Pancakes project has been fine, and I can't wait to present a few characters I have been working on for our new animation, as we intend to have a launch day for the project we intend to release everything in one go in a few places, so you need to wait.<br />
<br />
Until next time.

<br />
Things are pretty busy here, trying to get the creative juices flowing and being pro-active nonetheless... I will update you in a few things in my life.<br />
<br />
Unlikely other countries in Europe, Portugal is snow free... yay!! ohh and it is carnival so nothing better to dress up as your favourite character. <br />

The re-topology was done so this is getting closer to the final sculpture but with no clothes. I am using this character as a means of improving my modelling skills.<br />
<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, things have been cooking at Atom Pancakes, and we are happy to inform that we are pre-producing a new short animation. Things have been quite over the studio's blog, but I will update you when new work surfaces, featuring some of my designs.<br />
<br />
I had finally the guts to enter CG Society's forum and ready to get some feedback, I have also entered a mini-challenge to start things up.<br />
<br />
Here is the thread: <br />
<br />
<a href="http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=208&t=1093480" target="_blank"><strong>HCR Modeling # 37: Femme Fatale- Catherine Zeta-Jones as Marshal Jed Cooper</strong></a><br />
<br />
<br />
In terms of freelance work things are going well, but not able to post it here. <strong> </strong><br />
<strong><br /></strong>
Also while learning sculpture, I found very helpful to learn anatomy, to improve my character work and sculptures. I will post here the sketchbooks thus far.<br />
<br />
Finally I would like to say, blogger for me has been a great platform to share my work however I have moved to use facebook, because it fast way to share stuff. So if you want to follow me on facebook, you can either befriend me, or like my page at<br />

With this initial sculpting and with the topology not really in my favour I decided to begin a new process in my pipeline. Retopology, it means having a dense polygon mesh and change the topology to better accommodate the details. While the first time I have done this process I used Zbrush own retopology tools, I decided to have a go at using topogun for the same end. </div>

In terms of freelancing work, It is going very well, with the character pretty much modeled, awaiting some texturing, and all the mechanisms to be animated ( Skinning and Rigging). Unfortunately,, I am not able to share anything, for the moment. You wait. </div>

My aim is to learn a more effective way to get my characters quickly to 3D with a better result. Therefore I have been looking into sculpting the character first, retopologise it and then bake the maps onto the character.<br />
<br />
So far I have been playing around in Zbrush sculpting the character. I have to say it has been amazingly funny.<br />
<br />
here's some progress: <br />

Although I wont be able to inform you too much on the project, I am able to tell you for what company is and a few keywords for the project.<br />
<br />
The company I will be working with is Doremi Sounds, a music company which specializes in music for babies, which boost their interactivity, imagination and mood.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The project revolves around the words babies, cuteness, learning and colourful worlds. So as soon i can advance with showing some work, I will post it on here. <br />
<br />
On another note, I have been trying to broaden my knowledge in different software to facilitate my character pipeline and to achieve better results. So lately, I have been playing bodypaint 3D, a great software for texturing, in a 3d view and also Topogun, for re-topology of meshes that have been sculpted in a sculpting program like Zbrush. These 2 programs, definitely will improve my works and completely change my workflow. <br />

I have to say that I have been highly motivated lately to produce work, therefore I have a few projects I am working on.<br />
<br />
Firstly, I would like to say that I am waiting for this CG test for a company so I can possibly be employed by them. Meanwhile, I feel the urge to be highly active, therefore I have been doing some 2D and 3D work, so my skills improve.<br />
<br />
On the project side I have continued working on my personal project, The Master of Animals, producing some character sketches for it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZqVdBdeA3Zdkp5NQlXHJCqrVhojFP5JHJvuh_Z31W9tBN0pkttkJr5panUw3PHIUjILTte63QO2JPk3bXQQyytY4IhctdbvVC4DudUOjjghoVRX9D2pbPZyQzk2UanWPZFIXfAEAUFRuc/s1600/MoA-Alchemy+Sketches.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZqVdBdeA3Zdkp5NQlXHJCqrVhojFP5JHJvuh_Z31W9tBN0pkttkJr5panUw3PHIUjILTte63QO2JPk3bXQQyytY4IhctdbvVC4DudUOjjghoVRX9D2pbPZyQzk2UanWPZFIXfAEAUFRuc/s400/MoA-Alchemy+Sketches.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
This sketches helped me loosen up a bit and get back to character work.<br />
<br />
Alongside this work, I have been working on my Zbrush Skills, therefore I have been modelling the Beautician Character I have designed a few years back. <br />
<br />
So far I just created a base mesh for him with Zspheres.<br />

One last update is on Atom Pancakes, we have began a new project for a competition. Although I cannot give anymore information, I can assure you when we have significant work we will be posting it.<br />
<br />
Ohh and I have added a link to my facebook page, It has been up for quite sometime and updated more often than the blog. So take a look and drop a like.<br />

<br />
For quite sometime I have been planning with<a href="http://blog.ivankak.co.uk/" target="_blank"> Ivana</a>, a life changing moment. Therefore, We decided to change airs and embark in an adventure. Unlike Carl Fredricksen, we didn't go to Paradise Falls, but we have moved to Portugal. It was a mutual decision in order to slow-down our rather frenetic life in Britain.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://0.tqn.com/d/cruises/1/0/B/L/3/lisbon008.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://0.tqn.com/d/cruises/1/0/B/L/3/lisbon008.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
With a few job interviews on my way for a 3D generalist position, I'm hoping for life to go smoothly on this life changing opportunity. But Ivana will also look to work on her own area, Illustration.<br />
<br />
The first few days were great to see family, rethink this life choice, now with my things arriving tomorrow shipped from Britain, and the first job Interview next Monday, I'm more than ready to face the destiny.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, all my works in 3D are in a stand by mode, because all my hardware and software are still not here with me. But as soon as I receive my computer, I will enlight you on a very interesting project I'm working on.<br />
<br />
Any more news I will post on here.<br />
<br />
I leave you with a photo of a place I visited yesterday, Quinta da Regaleira, a magical place not far from my house, which you can explore all day. It has beautiful gardens, a palace and a few caves. A concept artist Playground, enjoy!<br />

<br />
So here is the last post showing the progress on my bug sculpture.<br />
From where I left it last I added a few more details, by using either zspheres or primitives within zbrush. These primitives proved very useful to create a variety of shapes, based on a mesh created.<br />
<br />
Firstly, I created reins out of zspheres...<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then added more details... for the saddle.</div>

<br />
Firstly, I added the mandibles and with power of the zbrush plugin, Subtool Master. I was able to mirror and group it. within the same subtool.<br />
<br />
Then I moved onto creating the antennae, where the same technique was used. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Finally, I created a saddle to make the insect rideable. this done by once again by drawing the topology.<br />

Only now I have been playing with it and getting to the drawing room more often.<br />
<br />
So here is a couple of random animal sketches in preparation for my next personal project.<br />
