Part 2: Higher Res and Sculpting

     Part 2: Hi-Res & Sculpting

    Pushed Some additional detail using Sub-D in Blender, put it in ZBrush to make sure it'll hold up. Due to lead duties for Vertical Slice, and unexpectedly getting sick, it's not where I want it right now. Regardless, I'll continue on building detail in time for the next turn in.

     Part 1: Block Out w/ Ref

    For the start of the hard-surface project, I decided to do the Smith & Wesson 625-6 Revolver, chambered in .45. I looked for as much reference and documentation as I could for realism.

    Finishing up the character, redid the sculpt, redid the topology, and made a rig and animation for it. Opened his mouth as well.
