3d graphics, shock!

Eventually getting some 3d up here i do it all day everyday, so it really should be represented.

During my day job i mainly work in Maxon's  'cinema 4d', an under-appreciated little 3d program that is very easy to pick up and learn.

I am a 3d Generalist/Technical director, which means i have to do a little bit of everything from modeling right through to rigging and animation. If you can think of an object i have probably made one of them at some point.

But this stuff, this stuff is actually from a fairly new love in my life ZBRUSH. And it IS the best 3D program i have ever used, ok so the interface is frankly bonkers and it can be crazy temperamental at times, but what comes out the other side is something better than 3d graphics, it's real art, pure and simple. Perhaps even more important than what comes out though is the physical act of producing work on it puts a big old smile on my face, it's a joy, a real zen experience.

All of the images in this post were created before i started a masterclass in Sculpting in Zbrush (which i am currently in the middle of so busy, busy, busy).

hope you like em.
