-work a...things to consider when working w/ zbrush:<br />-work as low as you can for as long as you can, meaning, don't move up in subdiv until you can't improve anymore w/ the silhouette and major shapes. <br />-do not get bogged down in one area, always keep moving around the sculpt to keep consistency throughout the whole sculpt. it's fine to really define a specific area for your focus, but don't stay there for too long during your sculpting. <br /><br />things about your tree:<br />-the branches do not look too believable, they are ending too thick or too soon. take a look at this tree and how the branches thin out at the tips<br />http://www.freefoto.com/images/15/19/15_19_50---Tree-Branches_web.jpg<br />grab tons of ref for your tree and take the vital elements from them. <br />-some of your major branches remain too thick and with the same volume as they go up. branches tend to thin as they grow. <br />-roots. or at least some indication of how this tree connects to the ground. make this tree feel grounded, don't stop with it curved like how you have it.<br />-never forget about gesture & straights vs curves. even w/ that pic i linked above, there is great gesture through the branches because it has nice rhythms throughout. <br /><br />for now, keep working your silhouette before you hit your next step, which is refining the smaller textures like bark and stuff.Eric Pagtaconanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05556589196695878390noreply@blogger.com
