Temple Guardians_Update

Time is running out and this fella had to be sped up, although a final combination of test renders of 4 materials proved a good combination. I had always intended to try and create a Sci Fi variant finish to the original (reference montage below,) heavily weathered and patinated Bronze, this was a fairly educated test thanks to the previous rendering mock up.

With extra time I would continue to composite by painting more detail in Photoshop, this is unlikely to happen before deadline, will get it into the scene next and match in it with a colour and atmospheric pass...

Goddess Temple_Inner Sanctum Concept Composite Wip 6

The latest work in progress of my temple sanctum, next elements to work up & include are the framing archway, guardians and Goddess deity.



Goddess Temple Sanctum_Wip Dump

Been busy beavering away on the temple environment mock up for my Goddess bust.

Took my time learning / getting the hang of the ZBRush 4R7 update, having a pleasant time putting together the pieces and mocking up in Photoshop.

My process to date has involved the initial rough sketch of the master-plan which was iterated in sketch form before the 4R7 block out and basic lighting / material render.

Using multiple 3D renders to composite in photoshop, painting and adding photographic texture, the intention being to frame the piece with the arch way from the initial concept framed with a pair of Guardians which I have been working on separately ( see previous ;D)

The composite WIPS (work in progress) shown below shows the stages from the 3D render / 1st pass to a more developed composite with photo texture and digital matte painting.
