You can recreate this easily after watching a (paid) 18 hour tutorial on ziva, posing the character, running the ziva simulation, and then doing further sim with marvelous. No need to sculpt and only get one pose. Use ziva and do it right and get unlimited, accurate poses.

Really, the hair is the worst part and doesnt belong.

If you can't recreate the human shape by heart in an aesthetically pleasing way no amount of simulation will help you. The simulation there is to cut corners, not do the work for you. It doesn't matter how fast your car is, you'll go nowhere if you don't know how to drive.

How can anyone become a character artist without starting as a junior? Environment art is a different field, you can't just transition to a senior character artist from a mid environment artist. Also, Zbrush is used heavily in environment art as well.

I'm not a character artist though, I assume they either work on smaller pieces of characters, or on less important NPCs. Or maybe they get tasks like animals and sculpted human statues in the world?

If you mean being able to sculpt anatomy to become a junior character artist? Then yes. Your pic is decent, but not top tier, but you don't even need to be that good to get a junior position. Anatomy is like baseline level of acquiring a job and it doesn't have to be perfect, you have to show you can do the rest of the pipeline too. For games you'll also need to show some level of design ability.
>talent
You could sculpt like this in 3-6 months of dedicated studying. More/less depending on previous artistic background/experience.

>>881214
>>881246
>>881280
This is not what a character artist does. They have to understand and be able to sculpt anatomy, because they'll need to be able to sculpt all kinds of shapes, sizes or even creatures. You're not just posing daz models at home to take screenshots for fun.

ZIVA is an advanced muscle sim, with the purpose of having realistic geo deformation when animated. You will still need to build a model, then a skeleton, then a rig, then fit the muscle sim. Presets aren't a magic button, you will have to do a lot of manual adjustments, even sculpting on top of the sim or adjusting your skinning (weight painting), etc. It doesn't perfectly simulate every pose either, it's just close enough. For specific poses you still have to do manual work on top. It's unironically much faster and easier to manually pose something in zbrush and then sculpt any adjustments, if all you need is a pose or two.

There is literally a dedicated job for this in the industry, called Creature TD, it has nothing to do with being a character artist.

and what is an animation? A collection of frames.

>You will still need to build a model, then a skeleton, then a rig, then fit the muscle sim
I dont think you understand ziva. You build your model in reverse. First the modeled bones, then the modeled muscles, then you shrinkwrap a skin. You literally have to do everything in reverse. You would know this if you took the masterclass.

>Presets aren't a magic button, you will have to do a lot of manual adjustments, even sculpting on top of the sim or adjusting your skinning (weight painting), etc. It doesn't perfectly simulate every pose either, it's just close enough.
What presets? Again, take the masterclass and get back to me.

>It's unironically much faster and easier to manually pose something in zbrush and then sculpt any adjustments, if all you need is a pose or two.
This is all covered if you absorb the tutorials.

>There is literally a dedicated job for this in the industry, called Creature TD, it has nothing to do with being a character artist.
You are just sweeping my take under the rug in order to fit some label that has no place when you're a single artist doing everything at once aka a one man act. Once I got my shit together and got a ziva license and purchased the unoficial training a lot of things opened up for me. I did have to write a ton of python script and ive been programming for over a decade however.

Do you even do any 3d work? You seem to have an extremely limited understand of how or why anything is used. The whole discussion is about sculpting characters, and you think someone should learn rigging, skinning, ziva and scripting, all so they can pose their character for a turntable? Do you realize how autistic that is?

The reason I bring up the creature TD position is because we're talking about getting a job as a junior artist. Rigging and simulations are completely separate disciplines to character art and are not part of the job description. Sure, if you wanna work on some realistic solo project and you wanna have some nicely animated creature/animal with all the jiggle physics, then do what you like. Just hope you're not trying to do literally every aspect yourself, because it's gonna be dogshit.

>the masterclass
First of all, nobody knows what masterclass you're talking about because you literally don't say. Also why would I take it? I model and texture at work, this is literally useless for me.

Don't you guys get sick of the rat race? Constantly comparing yourself and doubting if you're good enough for this or that studio is exhausting. I'm not even in a bad position, but I don't work in ILM or something like that and I still feel bad about it. Wish I could just throw all of that shit away and create my own thing, like that guy from another thread who's making $$$ on Patreon with his stop motion 3D shorts.

I'm also starting to realizing that MAYBE having a goal to get into more of a management type of role isn't actually bad. I've seen artists that never wanted to do that jump because they just wanted to make art, and I somewhat shared that view, but at this point I'm actually not sure anymore if I want to grind on (slightly more complex) props day in day out when I'm in my 30s and 40s. Doing it for myself - sure, but for some commercial project? I don't think so.

Rigger here: The modelers I see at work have similar ish work to this, but in the end modelers dont only sculpt. You need to know UV, sculpting, topo, and shading. We do however have distinct teams for hard / soft surfaces, but our media team is about 40 people compared to larger places that can afford to have niche depts.

The mistake you’re making is comparing your work with assets in the final game, that had to be heavily optimized which ruined their quality. And then they were rendered with a shitty renderer From software is using. Makes no sense. Compare your rock with high poly sculpts you can find on artstation.

>a heavily optimized rock
you're losing the plot. if anyone at a game studio spent more than seconds to 5 minutes on a rock, they'd be out the door. nobody fucking cares, go look at any big budget video game. they randomly generate some bullshit, slap it in the world, miss the terain 40% of the time, and collect hundreds of millions in revenue.

Clueless as fuck. Go ahead, copy paste your post and send a message to this guy who made some rocks for God of War.

Since you're so confident about this, surely that won't be a problem, right? Might as well teach people something. Open his eyes and make him realize he wasted months, if not years of his life on something that can be done in 5 minutes in blender.

the problem is you're framing this guy as the "rock guy", and not a 3d generalist. meanwhile, here's what his professional rocks look like in game. like every other low resolution rock in every game released in the last 10 years.

I already said that you should compare your skills with those high poly renders and not the ones in the game for a shitty weak console that had to be crushed down both in terms of texture resolution and tris count. It may come as a surprise to you, but most of the game assets usually look much better than what they end up looking like in a game.

Compare your shitty generated rock with Nanite rocks in Unreal 5 then. I agree rocks in games suck ass compared to what they look like in high poly renders outside of the game engine, but those assets themselves are still high quality and can look great in other renderers because the detail is still there. Your rock doesn't have any of that high poly info, it will look shitty wherever you render it. Obviously you wouldn't get a job with it.

And don't frame me as someone being obsessed with rocks, you started this discussion and a few of us are just saying you're undermining the works of those artists and it just isn't as simple as you think.

And how is your comment any better, praising someone's "flawless" work like it is some objective truth? He has the right to state his opinion and criticize things, that doesn't make the board low quality. It's posts like yours that don't have any arguments and just call other people names ("bumbling fuckwit") and putting them in positions you can't prove ("who couldn't model a crate").

few minor alterations to the face anatomy wouldn't go amiss, that browbone and eyebrow is quite a bit too wide as is the frontol bone of the forehead unless intentional design i'd be inclined to narrow it a bit, because it doens't look natural, i have further minor nitpicking things but aside from that it looks cool to me.
