Soldier WIP - Armor and Posing Sculpting Tip
🕑 Added 2019-02-14 16:56:24 +0000 UTCArmor
I made the armor by using Dynamesh + Polish. I used dam standard to crease the armor, and then alt+dam standard to build up the ridges. This combined with Dynamesh + Polish worked pretty nicely!
The armor lines don't look deep in the render, but they would definitely show up on a print. This method of sculpting armor is more like the quick and dirty way to get it done, but it works! I will be adding fabric creases once the model is posed.
Posing
This is the posing method I hope to try! Because my space elf sculpt got a bit warped when I posed it.
1. Dynamesh high resolution mesh and duplicate it
3. ZRemesh the duplicate
4. Project the high resolution mesh details onto the ZRemesh model
5. Make a copy of the ZRemesh model with the high detail
6. Pose either of the ZRemesh models in lowest subdivision
7. Use the non-posed ZRemesh model to project the details back onto the posed model.
That is my game plan! I will let you know if it is worth it lol
