Hey duders, I just completed my first model using Zbrush and would like to flaunt it about in a careless manner!

I created the low poly mesh using Maya and then went to work in Zbrush adding high poly mesh!

It's kind of like digital clay but not really!

So....... there it is. CC or something.

    The teeth look like they're made in a plastic mold as a single piece. But this is a cool skull!

    Yeah man, this is pretty awesome! 3D just goes way over my head, though I have tried ZBrush and it is hella fun.

    Way awesome! I really like the scars and stuff you put in. Is this meant to be a human skull? 'Cause if it's human, you have some anatomical issues with the brow/nose ridges. Looks more like a Neanderthal skull to me. Also, brow ridges don't typically stop over the nose like it does in your model; check out real pictures of skulls to make them more anatomically correct, like Neanderthal one. Otherwise, nice high poly stuff. I like it a whole bunch! If it's not meant to be a human skull, I think it's perfect as is :)

    Whew Cristoval,
    this is really a cool 3D skull that I've ever see. It got like it has it won personality unlike other normal skull.
    Maybe you can offer this skull to Hollywood Studios as the Red Skull character in Captain America movie :)

    Hey noiiiccee. But i'd model the eyebrows into your Maya mesh or it's gonna look like crap when you put the normal map on, cos when you turn it the edges won't show at all.


    Zbrush is fun. c: And normalmaps are so not lazy. They're the final touch.
