Brun - Caveman

Update! So I finally managed to finish my caveman! It's been a fun ride, learned a ton, but it's time to move on to new projects. Meet Brun, the caveman who found some old caveman drawings of people bowling. So he decided to carve out his own bowlingball to see what the fuss is about. ZBrush, Maya, Vray, Photoshop.

Caveman old

I went back in ZBrush and played some more with fibremesh. I love it! I did however export .obj´s of the hairs instead of exporting curves driving a hair system in Maya. Need to look into that. So he´s aged a bit since last time, but I think it suits him better with his current build and details. Next stop needs to be the cave!

Caveman haircut

He's got some hair! First pass with fibermesh... Still a little too 'groomed' for a caveman, will need to rough him up a little.

More to come!

Caveman texture

So I went back to texturing this bad boy and gave him a complete overhaul. I think I'll work from here. Texturing is first pass so more details will surface... I also changed the camera framing so it will be clearer to tell my story. Next thing we'll be it's environment. Quick comp:

A little update on my caveman. Still sculpting, but doing test renders as well... Work in progress:
