Gen2 Rollout

I started rolling out a few of the gen2 sculpts starting with Reaper II, followed by Demon I and Angel II. Eagle was next but it's getting scrapped due to glitches in the wings and tail. I will continue with the rest and circle back to fixing the Eagle later.. Y-Y Shit Happens. So much for releasing all 10, I get to go back and fix a few.. I might try yet another approach to the feathers when I go back for repairs. The Feather technique used in Angel II was also used for Eagle I, but the feathers can get glitchy, I got lucky on the Angel. I thought 10 feathers per Prim was good, but Inworld tools can do better then Zbrush in that area so I might turn to them for a little help on this.

Gargoyle Update

This remake was one of the first examples of something I really tried to hand-sculpt the detail on. It's not too bad for a first-ish attempt. The gargoyle was one of my first statues and I wanted to give it a modern makeover. I can't believe it's already been about 3 months since I actually completed it, but left it sitting around in my inventory along with some of the other updates. Being too busy to actually take pictures for the marketplace and update the listing? Ayuki please..

Cobra Update

Back when I first made the cobra, I didn't know how to use any other sculpted primitive type besides 32x32. So I couldn't make a long body like what's possible with a 16x64 and as a result, it's body was split into multiple sections. That has always bugged me. I decided to rework it next knowing it was simple enough that it wouldn't take me longer then a couple days to do. I gave it a base to sit on and textured it with a golden material that I came up with after combining a few different substances together for some depth. End result = SHINY! The idea to make a gold one came from Ancient Egyptian themed statues and artifacts.  

Dragon X Update

Dragon X is now version 3! With smoother geometry and a complete beard, it looks more like the subject material that first inspired it. It has better normal maps and nicer textures, as well as a few other Oriental-themed material sets, Jade and Gold! I wanted so bad to make it Jade when I was first sculpting it, but I had no idea how to design my own substance materials back then. I also didn't know how mirror mesh models without flipping the normals, turning the model inside-out, and causing upload errors so only the sculpted version was mirrored. Now I can safely upload mirrored mesh models and Dragon X was the first thing I updated with that. Cheers to mirrors, and substance-material authoring.
