very nice model , some parts seems to be welded ,3dcoat ? :thumbsup:

[StephaneD]

looks great, feels very natural
there is something strange to me in the proportion though, the upper body seems a bit narrow compared to the lower body
keep posting :thumbsup:

[PascalR]

:welcome:here Leslie,

what a lovely sculpt! I love it, feels very natural :dance:

What applications did you use? Any wireframes to show us?

Keep posting please
Cheers

Thank you guys for the nice comments and critiques!

@stephane: I think you are right, really the hips are very large. It started as a freesculpt of just an upper torso but halfway through decided to tack on a lower body as well, and probably miffed the proportions a bit in the process. Sculpting in pose is trickier for me, so in the future i'll definitely pay more attention to this

@tomaya & pascal: This one is all maya and zbrush. I think zbrush makes it appear as if its welded because of the way its shaded. I could post wires, but its just a modified mudbox basemesh (to remove all those poles in the face topology)

@pascal: Thanks and there's definitely more coming :)

Great sculpture, great pose! Beautyfull. :love:

[BrettSinclair]

Gorgeous! Love it all.

[rasmusW]

beautiful and very natural looking model.
i noticed the proportional differences, but actually just thought it nice to see some more soft/natural forms.. hehe -didn't really think them to be off.

anyway, looking forward to see more from you.

I did also wonder if the proportions might be a little off, but great work! I love the fleshynsess of her hips especially, makes me want to grab them. :rofl:

[Tomaya]

For me , the proportions are very realistic in fact , that girl is just a bit "ronde" as we say in french , a bit like the 'renaissance" painters models ...
Very pretty ....

[tonytrout]

Very lovely, I like the slight proportion weighting, makes her seem more real. :thumbsup:

[drummermenco]

she's a beauty! great job!

[collings]

lovely sculpt the forms look just great :thumbsup:

[Intervain]

lovely gesture - I feel the distribution of fat would be a bit different on a woman with more form... the hips would not grow wide just sideways like they seem to have on your model - there would be a quite a bit of fat on the lower portion of the belly [the front of the body] that would not stretch up even though she has her arms lifted... just a thought

[leslie.button]

Thanks guys for all the great feedback and kind words! I was indeed going for a rounder feel to her, because I find that sexy :)

@intervain: thanks, and your observation noted. I'll keep this in mind for the future, I think if I had used a more solid reference and not just winged most of it, I wouldn't have 'idealized' the forms as much (giving her wide hips and no belly to go along)


Here's a work in progress, couple ideas for a dress. This is the poly model, except the hair - that's just a sculpt for now

I' m a fan , very nice ,great clothes !:thumbsup:

[Intervain]

sweet - always great to see clothes done well - I really love the flow of the first shirt - looks real

[drummermenco]

that's awesome! how did you do the ruffles? I'm working on something similar but I'm not happy of the model...how is the geo?

[PascalR]

wow beautiful models indeed. Clothing looks great in both pictures, hard to choose which one I prefer:love:
Well done clap

[leslie.button]

Hey thanks guys! I'm glad you like both of them, they are still WIP but its good that the designs seem to work

@ Pascal - I couldn't pick my favorite either, that's why I ended up doing both :)

@ drummermenco: I simply lofted two nurbs curves and then tweaked the shapes a bit so it wouldn't look like a loft. The artisan brush is good for this, if you use maya. During the making of this I discovered an easy and very quick way to add lace to even complicated cloth shapes, I'll add some pics below to explain

Glad I could share that trick with you guys, it's certainly made my life easier!

[ZippZopp]

awesome sculpt and clothing! thanks for sharing your workflow

[Tomaya]

hey ! much better than some tests with ncloth !;) very good trick :thumbsup:

[drummermenco]

amazing trick, great stuff! thx for sharing! I looks so good, I shall try to use the curves next time, polygons for this kind of stuff can make it really slow. cheers! :beerchug:

[nghia59]

Great work man! How long does the entire process take to make the folds and get the trim to work? Is there a bit of fidgeting with numbers back and forth?

[StephaneD]

beautiful work! I love both dresses
the process is very interesting, thanks for sharing
