25 minute sketch practices for learning purposes. Anatomy shapes mostly.

Gone through the training of Digital Tutors. Which covers modeling base mesh with Maya and sculpting high resolution detail with Zbrush. Tomorrow I’ll go with 3ds Max practices because I decided to make a little switch from Maya and C4D to 3ds Max. Wish me luck

I finally finished the first (Maya part) of my training DVD from digitaltutors.com

I’ve had problems with keeping the model in quad geometry. But decided to not to ask this on forums or mentors this time and tried hard to figure out myself. I finally learned to find faces with three sides (triangles) or more than four sides (n-gons) and cleaned them up myself. A friend of mine showed me an export plugin on 3ds max which is cleaning things up for you – also a preset for Zbrush export. But I didn’t wanted to go there. Over years I got used to do somethings automatically. Now it’s all manual. My aim is to learn Maya and Zbrush enough to create scenes and characters from scratch. So please forgive me if I post too much progress shots from lessons I’m working on.

Mesa Mastery is the QuadSpinner series that will help you become the Chieftain of nature’s mystical mesas. Exquisitely beautiful, these majestic monuments whisper tales of the Ancients to the wind. And it is the wind that carries these stories through generations.

Kicking off the Mesa Mastery series is our tutorial on Erosion. Old and weather-worn, mesas are a phenomenon caused by erosion – the whittling away of matter by the wind and other elements. This slow process creates a magnificent portrait that is ever changing in color, texture, form and size.

Remember – it’s not about learning features, it’s about learning proven techniques for practical and realistic results.

Because of the darn flu I just had time to start to work on the environment. Which will be be a temple.

Putting things together to see how they look like…

Okay here I finished the material work for my mecha/robot thing. You can visit the forum here to see my entry in progress. I hope you like it.

I wanted to apply what I’ve learn from SimplyMaya.com’s sand speedster modeling lectures. But no more time and patience to keep working on this one so I decided to put the process together and call it a day.
