Super informative! I would sure pay for a full tutorial or just the full video. anyway thanks so much for this, it's hard to find work process with good subdermal color theory behind it.

Superb work!

Thank you so unbelievably much for sharing this video, wonderful to see a professionals workflow. Have you any tips or techniques on how to get better at painting skin? Are there any external videos or tutorials that you could direct us towards? In any case, thank you!

My mind is blown! Thank you Adam! :D That polypainting technique has a name? I'd really like to know how to polypaint with kind of layers like veins, pores. Great job! Congratulations!

very very GREAT WORK!

great job man!

ASOMBROSO TRABAJO!

Very nice !

Love it!!

Mindblowing...

good job and Respect.

Reminds me of a minbari man, great work here!

Adam, been following your stuff for awhile now and i'm always impressed and inspired by your work. Do you have an upload of your skin brush alphas?

looks handsome!

Texturing = God Mode...

you are incredible

WHAAA thats amazing

Hi it's excellent work.Full video please.

DAMN! You're great! I've got some catching up to do....but I'll get there quickly. I've got the skill. I just don't know my too yet like you do. (watch this space).

Nice cool!!

I am literally crying T_T ....this is so good. it looks ready for a animation movie. I just came into digital painting, till few weeks ago, i hated digital painting and i took the classics, paper and stuff. I may be good with a pencil or a marker, but not with this kind of...level of digital painting. And I am weeping...because you are amazing, and I am jealous because I want myself to be as good as you. *pout* And I am just getting the basics of Zbrush...so.... :)) Keep on with the amazing stuff!

Hey Adam, love your channel and all your projects,they are truly inspiring. Maybe you know if i can use polypaint which is on the 3d model itself and not the texture, and add part of it to the spotlight, as i could do in photoshop with clone stamp tool?

Hey Adam love the work, Wondered if you could give us some advice on your hair process I am trying to find the best fibermesh preset for the job, but finding most of my results coming out a noisy mess any quick advice e.g. best preset to use for stubble/hair?

Complete!

u r master of creating realistic faces in ZBrush so please give us some tutorials. its awesome to see u replying!!

Amazing skills man, how did you do the beard and hair in polypaint....

please tutorial or complet video!

amazing to watch :) Just wondering tho, how did u tecture the hair pores on the jaw area? Did u do it in photoshop? What procedrue did u use for it? :)

great work. i was dig it. could you tell me about the beard. do you render from fibermesh or hand paint in photoshop? thanks

Hi mr Fisher Please share your process of creating the spec and gloss map for this head in Photoshop .. If possible please share your process of texturing the outfits that you used in this model

so .... i wanted to use mari for texturing but from what i just saw zbrush can do everything ! so i'll just stick with zbrush and substance , amazing amazing amazing job . i just wish u had a full tut for this , the part when u go into photoshop i just lost it , can u explain what happened ? where did u get those layers , i really need some help , please if u could just .... help me a bit .

Zbrush is good for a base, but I tend to do a lot of my texturing in Substance Painter nowadays, or Quixel Suite for a more photoshop centric workflow. I use Mari for texture projection and cleanup. In the video when I go into Photoshop, I'm jumping ahead to show the extra adjustments and painting I did on top of the polypaint I exported from Zbrush. Hope that helps

Would love to see you do some Zbrush tutorials on gumroad ;-)

I exported out the fibermesh (with black polypaint) and a version of the head (with white polypaint). Then in xnormal, I loaded both of them as the highpoly meshes and baked the polypaint to my low poly head mesh. That gave me a black and white texture with the fibermesh stubble. I set that to multiply in photoshop onto my skin texture. I also painted hair on top of that. Hope that helps

You are a master! looks great! I love Zbrush, I'm a beginner, But I want to become an excellent artist like you. How long are you using Zbrush? Where did you learn? I would appreciate your answer.

good

Can you please tell me how you bake fibermesh onto diffuse using xnormals? Thanks in advance. Love your work.

Would you ever be wiling to do a tutorial for realistic skin painting in zbrush? Or can you tell me a good resource to help me in that area? Thanks

I might do some tutorials at some point. I'm sure there are tutorials on the subject around. Here's something that I found after a quick google-- vimeo.com/28014827 it might help you out. Understanding the different colour regions of the face helps and also seeing how other artists approach it.

any sort of spotted skin alpha should be fine. Just play around to find ones you like. The ones I use are just random shapes, that vary in number and blur amount. The ones that are blurry are better for blending, the ones that are sharper are better for defining variation.

Awesome! The hair was done with FiberMesh. Did you project these onto the texture or where those repainted in Photoshop (the part seems missing in the time lapse)? Also, it looks like your resolution is pretty high. Are you using, like, a 1440p monitor by chance?

can u make a detailed tutorial for same model skin painting

how did you bake the short (shaved, 1mm) hair (I assume that's fibermesh?) I know you can "texture from polypaint", but how did you do the hair? (maybe you used it as a cage and baked it in xnormal?)

@afisher3d

8 жыл бұрын

+glitch2424 You can export the fibermesh as an OBJ and bake like you normally do in Xnormal. I baked the normal and colour for the stubble separately using a version of the head filled white to act as a blocker when baking the fibermeshs polypaint.

@glitch2424

+Adam Fisher Thanks for the reply man. I searched up "xnormal blockers" just now and I think now understand what you did. If i'm thinking of this correctly, you are left with just the diffuse and normal of the hair (after bake), which you then composite onto the head's diffuse and normal?

You can either export the polypaint at a high subdivision (providing the model has its UVs set up) and apply it to your low poly model, like I did in this video. Or you can bake it from the high poly to the low poly using software like Xnormal

@ErronGhost

ok, i just used the option GoZ to export it to Maya and while in Maya i had all my preferences. I also used the Zremesher to reduce the polycount and maintaining the textures high. was a good option too :)

@adamdavidkenyon6664

Sammy Kupniewski Xnormal is amazing! You can paint your high poly model, rebuild into a low poly model ready to receive high poly density details, uv unwrap the low poly and create a UV map. Then you can export out as .obj your high poly model with the paint on, and low poly model and then use Xnormal to bake the vertex colour information to the low poly model, whilst also rendering out bump mapping, specular, AO etc. Awesome tool.

i will totally pay for this full tutorial.if you have in mind to post it in real time this will be great.

I use surface noise to paint sometimes but it inflates the mesh for some reason whenever i press apply to mesh. Does someone know a sulution to this?

Hi Adam fisher ! , can you say, how you get the better result in bakes? for beard? you baking what? Normal and AO? and the beard you using one head white and beard black? and using multiply in PS? how you get the nice result with fibermesh for beard? thanks !

@afisher3d

If you bake the polypaint from the fibermesh stubble (using the white head geo and black fibermesh), you can then convert that to normal using ndo or knald. You can apply the beard as a multiply in the diffuse, or you could use it as a mask for a solid color fill layer if you want easier control over the colour of the beard hair. Hope that helps

why there is no character this awesome in videogames, if marmoset its able to render it. how many poligons has this model?

@samleheny1429

9 жыл бұрын

It's because when people use marmoset, they usually have only one or a few objects on screen. But if you start adding all the assets that a game needs on screen at the same time, it starts getting slow. Games could easily look this good, but the frame rate would be wrecked.
