For a beginner like me, your retopo video really useful

[@jeremiahtaylor8337]

Just stumbled upon your work really great stuff. I'm going to try and make my own.

[@RicoCilliers]

Great! Good luck and don't give up

[@akuu131]

wow I have seen this dragon before in Cg was Amazing i just wonder how you make this texture in cg I Hope that you can Make tut for this kind of texture Good Work

[@Relivino]

DId you use any addon for the retopo?

[@RicoCilliers]

Nope. pretty much just the tools in blender.. You can check this video I made about that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKTJcpKvnbKkZrM

[@digamio2951]

neat-o but why not poly pain the layers inside of zbrush to get a faster and more easy low poly count then just bake the high poly as a bump map for your low poly it makes it faster and keeps more outline, i could be miss understanding re-topology but it looks like a process that could take less time, but i love seeing someone also use blender and zbrush those are the 2 programs i use i feel as if people strongly underestimate the power of blender.

Hey Rico looks like I'll be getting the rig done ahead of schedule

[@RicoCilliers]

nice! good luck with it :)

[@amritanshurana4000]

how much time did it originally take you to do it

[@RicoCilliers]

probably about 4 hours in total

[@aleph-tav]

How did you texture this dragon ? how did you get that crystal effect?

[@lucasgnr1001]

how did you the normal map?, what program?

[@RicoCilliers]

The normal map was baked in Blender :) You can see my normal map workflow in the beginning part of this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmaaeneAg8p3abc
