I’m a bit out of practice with the Russian dolls, but working on a couple at the moment - while they’re coming along I thought I’d throw up some pics from an exhibition I was chuffed to be involved with last October.

Outer Space: World Space Week Exhibition at the excellent Sayle Gallery on the Isle of Man,  www.saylegallery.com

I was one of eight contributing artists. Many thanks to those concerned for letting me be involved!

I don’t know how long this is viewable, but here’s a possible link to a video from the Manx television website:

having a go at hard edged models in zbrush

I realise there are pre-made skeleton models in zbrush these days, but I really wanted to have a go at making my own. And maybe learn a bit about anatomy at the same time. The end goal is to have a model that I can pose in a fantasy type illustration.

After sitting through many zbrush video tutorials (mainly from Ryan Kingslien’s excellent, and highly recommended, ZbrushWorkshops site) this was my first attempt at a complete accessorised character. Finished last March 2012, it then took me a little while to figure out how to export, tinker and publish images from zbrush.
