CGAA Speed Painting Challenge 19/12/2012

30 minute speed painting with the theme of "Jack Frost's Asylum For Malcontent Snowmen"

Painting 01

I have got a really good start on the painting, I have kept the colour pallet to browns, greens and yellows. This is so it looks mutated and disgusting. I have applied a large amount of specular on certain areas (face and shell) so that it looks wet and slimy.

Sculpting finished

The sculpting process is finished for now, at first I sculpting the model to much and it looked messy. So I started it again and went for a more subtle sculpting. I happy with this at the moment and have looked forward to moving on.

Mudbox 03 High Res detailing start

Mudbox 02

The sculpting process is going swiftly and it has been an interesting part of the pipeline. The spinal pattern on the shell is giving the creature a mutated look because it's unnatural. I'm still working on everything, but soon I will be applying some skin pores and veins.

Mudbox 01

I starting sculpting yesterday and after a few problems and alterations this is where I am at. I'm quite happy at the moment with my first attempt with mudbox. However I have realised how easy it is to just go off and mould something that looks COOL! but has no reference to any previous work, so I'm trying to control myself in this process.

Modelling finished

Modelling is finished now, I'm very happy with the model and looking forward to putting it into mudbox - I'm not looking forward to UV's!

But I hope everyone likes it - let me now what you think.
