to me, what looks a little off is the nose. The forehead is also a little big.

@ic3 ( or Bo who likes to change her name which angers Twitch): That's not possible. I use symmetry. Perhaps the texture is creating an illusion of lopsiedness. I'll look into it. iGuess: I'll look into this as well, though I think the fact that she's bald does make the forehead look much larger than it normally would. I'll definitely check out the nose as well. Thanks.

I guess the lighting on the texture does obscure the symmetry. Have you ever thought of using shaders for lighting? They're more GPU intensive but they look so much more real.
Pick a name for me, pick just one and I'll keep it. (Bo is not an option)

Chincilla. I like chincillas. Or Cheetara. It would go with your avatar, which also changes every 8 seconds.
I would use a shader, but honestly I don't really know too much about how to use them. Zbrush has a built in lighting system, and you can change the direction, I just figured I'd give it a little help by sort of defining the shadows and highlights. I do know that most of the high-quality work uses a 3rd-party shader though.

I absolutley refuse to accept those names. Try again, and be more creative. :peewee:

Here is my newest background. The frame is really the art, and I didn't have anything great to put inside it, so I just used a basketball. I am trying to come up with something to put inside it. Anyway HERE it is.

He likes it! He likes it! ;D I like it too, but not quite in that way, heh heh! Really nice artwork there, VG, that does look like the front cover of a magazine there. The girl looks absolutely fantastic, very stunning. I love it! P.S: I'm halfway done with my newest picture. I got bored while I was away for the last few days, so I did a few pictures. I'm getting the scanner put into my bedroom tonight, so I'll finally be able to scan them at last! Anyways, here's the currently unfinished doodle on my part, a creature I like to call a Nebula Wyvern.

Thanks very much for the kind comments, guys. I finally got the scanner in, and now I can show off some of these pictures at last. I just have two D&D dragons at the moment, the same green one I showed not too long ago here, and also a white dragon as well. The green dragon was done with normal pencils, but edited at the end to turn green. The white dragon was done with colouring pencils, although I'm practising with these a little still... The Green Dragon Now comes in green!The White Dragon A white dragon can be identified by his sharp, intelligent-looking eyes and intense expression. His scales resemble fur, or even feathers, in places. His wide feet and sharp claws help him to walk atop snowbanks. An aura of coldness seems to eminate from the white dragon...I know I have a few features flawed, but overall, I'm pretty pleased with how everything turned out. Hope you guys like!

And here was me thinking the green dragon looked good on camera. Absolutely stunning! I don't think I saw the white one before you'd finished it, but it looks equally beautiful. Both well worth getting the scanner in for!

Both well worth getting the scanner in for! Thank you very much, eek! Aye, the white dragon I was keeping a surprise for until now, and thank you so much once again. It feels a lot better having a proper scanner now, as that webcam just wasn't cutting it. Anyways, I know I've already posted this today as webcam, but here's the Nebula Wyvern again, scanned properly. It's still unfinished, but I'm puzzled as to whenever do a background for it or not. I'd like to do outer space with a few nebulas as well, and make the creature look more at home. I'll have to decide about that... The Nebula WyvernNo need to comment again, just thought I'd show the proper image as the webcam was a little... vague.

Now I can see exactly what is goin on in the Wyvern. The white spot looked like another dragon in the picture. Extra good now.

Maybe you could mess around in photoshop or whatever to see if it would suit a background?

Eek, It would definitely make a good background, but probably better to wait until it's done.

No, I meant to see if it would look good with a background. You're right there, though.

Sorry for the delay folks, but here's a looooong overdue update on my sculpting. Link's pretty much done, I just gotta tidy up the details a bit, mainly the hair and tunic: And my newest project. Now ladies, (especially PB and TVG), you'd best be sitting down for this... it's none other than Captain Malcolm Reynolds of Firefly fame! Based on this image: Okay, so all I've done is start off the pants and shirt, but comments are welcome as always. I'm still trying to decide whether or not the armature's face is suitable, or to sculpt my own. The problem being I'm hopeless at sculpting faces at the moment!

Oooh, beautiful sculptures, eek! Link looks awesome there, and the level of detail you've put into his features is incredible. The painting does need a little work work, but overall, the sculpture itself looks amazing. Captain Malcolm Reynolds looks incredible too, and very much like his character in the image you posted as well. Problem with sculpturing faces? Well, practise does make perfect, even if it is a bit of a trial and error run! Wonderful work, eek, your sculptures are fantastic, and it was an update well worth waiting for.
