Smokin'Souls

[zephyrchef]

Hi Guys,
Here is an illustration I have just finished of a demon smoking the souls of the fallen.
Created in 3DS Max, Photoshop and sculpted and textured in ZBrush. Post work in Photoshop and ZBrush.
Hope you guys like it.

Nice character, I like it! Would have been nice play with the spec variation to get those lips and gums feel more wet than the rest, and maybe more subsurface there.
Are the hair cg or painted?

Good stuff! :beerchug:

He He, nice. I especially like the smoke and the mood of the piece. :thumbsup:

Very nice image. But I'm also curious about hair, do you used some hair system or painted? If I have free to give some sugestion I think you could give more flesh appearence to the skin.

Good work

Cheers

Hi guys
Thanks for the comments
The hair was first rendered in max using Hair and Fur just for a guide.I then painted over it in Zbrush.
Yes there is a whole lot more I could have done...tweaked here, tweaked there, but I got tired of it. Might go back at some point and try and improve on it but thats doubtful hehe....I need to move on
