Description
I thought I should post 2 versions of my Zbrushed Alien Queen, because with a slight tweak you can get very different results.
I was inspired by Meats Meier a Zbrush legend and his 'wire-frame' mini-tutorial.
Step 1 - Zbrush sphere object
Step 2 - Make an adaptive skin
Step 3 - Subdivide the geometry
Step 4 - Add grid texture and create mask
Step 5 - Remove hidden polygons
Step 6 - Smooth and inflate
...but the last step in my versions didn't quite work out the way I expected it...more practice needed !
Cheers jif3d :o)
