Online Store ► follygon.com
The Appeal Academy ► appeal.academy
Hey all and welcome back to another start to finish ZBrush sculpting video! In this video I am going to take you through my entire character creation process, showing you every step along the way. This time around I am working on a female cervitaur which is like a centaur but instead of the lower half being a horse - she is half deer! A huge thank you to Yuriy Chemezov for the awesome concept of Enchantress from Dota, definitely check out his work! www.artstation.com/artwork/Jl.... If you have any ideas for a character you would like to see me sculpt in the future, comment below! I love hearing from you guys and I am always looking for new ideas to sculpt.

I most likely skipped over this part because I didn’t hear it at all during this XD

[@ratcheese3043]

How does he know?

[@Beweren]

It'd be interesting to see you rigging and putting it into a game-engine.

[@MellowJelly]

Sculpting is one thing; rigging is an entirely separate specialization

[@janballaz]

I'm reading this comments saying that it would be difficult for him since it's not his speciality but wat about a team project where you end up with one of your models in an animation or something, even if it's 5 seconds long

MellowJelly True, although mixamo has an auto-rig feature that is mostly accurate

[@matheusn1741]

How tf does he know the EXACTLY part that we skipped too? that was creepy

[@shadowsketch926]

predictable video format, knowing exactly what people look for, youtube gives you the statistics, and he probably took an average of that and called you skippers out xD

Matheus Lima Titon HOLY SHIT I SKIPPED TOO AND IT WAS RIGht wHERE HE SAID IT

[@VAMPZ_VAV]

Which part?

[@enzelar2755]

I got caught 😂

[@jocelynecupcake]

It's so cool to actually learn more about this instead of just watching a speedsculpt like I see most of the time. This still looks a lot of fun, though. It'd be a pain for me to learn everything but someday, I will. And someday I will be more eager to learn too. Every little detail with her face and stuff though, like wow! 0_0 now I realize why so many people in those early CGI movies and shows looked so ugly. (you know, like back at the barnyard and stuff). I always thought it's because the humans in those shows/movies weren't important enough and they wanted people to focus on the animals, but now I realize that 3D characters are hard to sculpt in any program.

[@ltsecondincomand]

Follygon: "And to to the part so many skip to" Me a skipper: "Ah, you know us so well"

[@danielschmid8530]

Out of curiosity: if you skip to the end what is it that you actually like to see? Do you just want to see the finished render?

[@theperson5205]

Daniel Schmid as a skipper, (who feels called out right about now ;( ) I just was more interested in how the render would look rather than the process of 3D sculpture-ing

[@emilysosa6703]

I think I would actually CRY if he sculpted one of my own characters, because his works are so beautiful. The process itself is incredibly wonderful and captivating, I loved watching the growth of this beautiful artwork come to life in 3D. This guy has some serious talent!! He made every detail look so beautiful I just think that's amazing

[@truebornseeker9767]

Okay then, *every type of visual artist hates hands,* got it.

[@TwoBeatle]

It's very entertaining to watch all your process and also very motivating, thank you so much for sharing it with us!

[@Follygon]

Thanks for watching!

[@abaddonarts1129]

@@Follygon It definitely shows how skilled you are when I am nowhere near that level, but the fact I understand how to get there even though I can't physically definitely helps me get inspired to eventually be able to do that.

[@jolienvsndijk]

This looks great! I've never seen anyone do this, but this just popped up into my recommendations. Just one thing that I noticed as someone with long hair; if you gather all your hair into a low ponytail, your hair won't show a middle part all the way to the back. It will be parted in the front and top of your head, but at the back all your hair will start to 'point' towards the base of the ponytail. (Not that a minor thing like that really matters, but like you said, there will always be things that can be improved in a model. So I thought I'd point it out for when you want to make another character with a ponytail.)

[@k0ncursus]

bro. Hair isn't parted all the way back unless it's divided into sections, it approximately goes to the crown. It's still a fantastic piece

Hi Folly! I have been following you since a while now and I want to say thank you. You motivate me so much! Last October, I participated to your sculptober challenge and that’s when I really started practicing on my own and working more deeply on my sculpts. I am always amazed by your work, you are a true inspiration to me, thank you! Keep sculpting 🙏💕

[@Follygon]

Hey Jessyca! Thanks for the kind words. I’m glad all the content has been helpful 👍

[@dayc_]

First off this is an amazing sculpture!! I thoroughly enjoyed watching your process. I’m an art major who’s struggling trying to find my place in the art world. I recently took a 3D computer graphics college course. We used Maya. It blew me away! It opened a whole new world for me and it was so exciting getting to learn this new way of creating digital art as I usually create art with pencil and paper. After taking that class and now watching you sculpt beautifully, it made me realize that digital sculpting is something I really want to pursue!! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@The3VanguardGaming]

I watched the whole video and I love your videos! It's so cool seeing you sculpt it and how far it comes! ;D

[@cristina.valencia]

I'm not gonna lie, I clicked on this video expecting to get bored and skip to the end, but this was super intriguing for me and I never skipped once. I'm not trying to flex or be like, "i'M a tRuE FAn whO DoEsn'T SkiP". I'm just surprised with myself because I've never really had an interest in sculpting, but I do now! Thanks, Follygon!! You've got a new fan :D

[@frogitude3106]

Whoa this is mad cool! I don’t do any digital 3D Work but as a clay sculptor I find this super intriguing. The finished project looks almost like a 2d image; the rendering is astonishing

[@adrianomaly1760]

[@DonCurrywurst]

First of all: Thank you. Started sculpting about 2 years ago and with the help of your and Shane Olsons free stuff (looking forward to get into some paid stuff next year, when my college is finished), I landed a small gig. And yes, its so true, that you always want to nitpick. I worked a week on a sculpt (next to my normal work) and after working the weekend through and was very happy, I came back and was like "wtf". So many stuff was out of place, so many weird angles. Sometimes you just need to take a step back and look what youve done...and like you said, even finished models have something to improve.

[@Follygon]

Glad I could help out 👍 keep nitpicking haha

[@kentario1610]

I think I just don't know enough about this medium to know what part to skip to, as I did peek forward and went back to the start. Fascinating to watch.
