AimBiZ's Sketchbook

[AimBiZ]

Got my new site done. Now I just need to do more stuff to put in.

[AimBiZ]

Threw something new togehter this evening. Might complete it.

Noticing I'm having a bit of a difficulty stating everything emediately and instead brush around until I know what to do with it. Makes it kinda messy.
Need to work on that simply.

I'm feeling more confident with colors nowadays though. That's a good thing.

Cheers!

[SMILEFACE]

HAHA your new portfolio is FREAK'N WICKED!!!! the two worrior guys an the lizarad w/ the mask RRRRROOOCCCKKKKKK!!!!!!

[AimBiZ]

Thanks Grandmassa! Now I just need to add more content!

Long time since last update and I will have to dissapoint anyone who cares that I haven't done any real drawing lately.

Been too busy finishing this dude.

No specular map yet...


I need to make more 3D stuff for the folio but I think I'll make a small brake after this one so I can get back to those anatomy thingies I got started a while ago. Making some random thingies would also be cool.

At least the texture maps are 2D work.

[SMILEFACE]

Sure, I'll do it when I get the final presentation images done! ^^

So, dominancewar is over. I didn't place in top 25. Was on two of the judges top list and got a comment from one of them but it wasn't enough obviously.

But I'm pretty happy with being in the top 75 since there was over 600 contenders. Was way better than I had expected.

I also got the chance to submit a turntable. Please check it out and the other awesome submissions!

The level of quality was insane this year and I'm starting already to get excited for next year's competition.

And back to topic...

Got started on this one this night. Might continue on it. Some advice would be greatly appreciated.

Glad you like her, though she could definately be hotter. I noticed after posting that her jaw was pretty masculine, will have to fix that.

I guess this will lean more toward stylised but I'll have to play around with light more.

Ah yes, blue and orange works every time. Use that alot myself both in 3D and 2D. Want to get away from it a bit though, or at least tone it down.

[AimBiZ]

Was tired tonight so I just did something random.

I'm kind of liking the idea, but it's helluva mess right now.

[SMILEFACE]

thats HELLA SICK' AN THE COLORS ARE WICKED'

[Janos]

Hey there AimBiz, haven't seen you around for some time.
The last few updates are nice, I like the summery colours in the last one contrasting with the uber robot.
Also , the frog is awesome and I have the same belt!

[AimBiZ]

Grandmassa: Thanks man!

Janos: Glad you like. About that belt, I got one too. ;P
The same fabric at least.

On a side note, all the fabric patterns on his clothing n shoes n all are sourced from my own photos.

Okay, so got around doing some anatomy stuff. Excuse my scanner for making it look a bit crappy.
I think I will loosen up with the line work since they're taking a bit too much time right now.
The main motivation was to do something on paper, and as you can perhaps see my line work is a bit rusty.


Here's the last update on the face before I made another variety that didn't turn out too well.


And here's a 1 hour speedie for tonight.

[SMILEFACE]

YEAH! STUDIES! the girl on the rock ROCKS!

[AimBiZ]

Thanks man.

Got started on a new one this night. Once again dunno if I'll continue on this one. Suggestions would still be greatly appreciated, also design wise. Dunno quite what to do with the pants.

[AimBiZ]

Decided to start participating in those CHOWs. Will probably not be done in time since I started so late, but what the heck.

[SMILEFACE]

the legs seem to be a bit off in both of them buti really like the ideas an design you could look for some ref fer soldier pants an then make up yer own

Yeah, I made them quite quick. Will look into refs tomorrow. Now it's sleepy time!

[AimBiZ]

Pose was boring so I decided to start over.


Wanted to make something like this.

[JailHouseRock2]

Dude everythings looking so good in here!!!

Lovin' it man! And the 3D work is just amazing!!!!

Keep at it mate,

I am so happy that I stumbled onto this thread. I have to say your Demon prince is totally mind blowing. I am trying to decide between Zbrush and Mudbox right now. Would you say that Zbrush is vastly better? Anyway you have a new subscriber.

[AimBiZ]

JailHouse: Thanks man! I certainly will keep at it.

ForScience: Thanks you too! Personally I prefer zbrush. Haven't tried all the shaders n stuff in mudbox but I seem to have a better flow in zbrush. I think there's trials on both of them so you could try them out and decide later. It's good to know both of them though.

[AimBiZ]

This week's CHOW been tough. Progress been slow.
Here's what I got so far.

[AimBiZ]

[AimBiZ]

Felt for doing Alien today by some reason. Guess I first wanted to try gigerstyle but couldn't stay away from having alot of colors.

Speedie. Think about 2 hours. Probably shorter.


I will continue on this one.

[AimBiZ]

More progress on the xenomorph...

[AimBiZ]

Moar update on this one. Still trying to figure out stuff.

Will be going away for a couple of days, so no updates for a while.

[Flaskpost]

bra grejor! stencool alien!

[AustenFM]

Cool work on the Xeno, awesome to see how you've tackled different problems like the hips and stuff. Though I think you should bring back the clear section on his face where you can see a humanoid skull, I always thought that was a super cool design point!

Also maybe try some super hard, thin white highlights to give him that slimy alien look.

Keep it up!

[AimBiZ]

Flaskpost: Man tackar!

AustenFM: Thanks! I also like that part alot as well. I wanted to have it subtle but I think I'll make it clearer. Been thinking about the slimyness as well. Thanks for the tip.
