Mudbox 2009 - INSECTIOD - work in progress

[smokeriie]

Nice. Which Material do you use, or is it just a standard shader with AO?

[donda2111]

Why would an insect have niples? O_O

[noggity]

@donda2111 you could also ask why it would have 2 arms nd two legs as well... besides its a cross so anything goes. beisdes which..I like nipples lol

[EntilMattt1990]

awesome

[limbdarkening]

unfreakinbelievably good. I never used Z brush before but I certainly want to start.

[noggity]

@limbdarkening it was done in mudbox

[HighBaseProductions]

nice (:

[jimbo222000]

whats the name of this song, I love it, I'v heard it before, its on blade

[chemicalBR0]

Very nice work

[SquidgyMario]

It sorta looks like a collector from Mass Effect 2, except with a smaller head and pink xD Still though props to ya man, I would never be able to make anything like that

[noggity]

@SquidgyMario pre dates mass effect 2 by a long way ;)

[Mcreator83]

great job man!

[NemesioTapia]

can anyone tell me why my mudbox lags and always craches on my mac?

my imac has a intel core 2 Duo processor, 3.06 processors speed, 2GB of memory

what could i upgrade on my iMac to make it run mudbox faster and smoother without crashing on saves and lagging?

oh and amazing artwork

thanks

[Zolbat]

@NemesioTapia because it's a mac

and macs just run great, as you see

you would have to upgrade memory and the graphics card (which is impossible in a mac)

or you just could buy a real computer for the money you would pay for the memory and have it running smoothly

[MrCrunchyMunchy]

Can you animate it with mudbox?

[Xiny0ung]

the music is something new for me ... not ^^

great job

[DJacKnifeAlpha]

looks like those Collectors from Mass Effect 2. EPIC!!!!!!!!

[noggity]

@DJacKnifeAlpha predates mass effect 2 by a long way..plsu I dont play games or own a concole

[DJacKnifeAlpha]

@noggity lol ME2 was originally for PC.

I'll have to check out mudbox then!! :D

[LoquendomichaelxD]

O_O

[plutoend99]

too much detail, unrealistic

[TheFXGuy]

At first I was thinking "Oh cool, what's the music?" Then I saw the model and was like "HOLY CRAP!  SCREW MUSIC! THAT'S BEAST!"

Just saying.

[Enes372]

wow amazing work.

[Tepicoelano2]

now this is what am talking about amazing

[livewiresrus]

awesome

[lightcache]

its a bit crap

[jhonbells]

did u use any other programs makeing this? is mudbox better than 3DsMax and Zbrush 3.1?

[chaibill]

How do you draw it all in the program? Do you make the wire frame than add skin ? Do you have to move the textures around? Are they all drawn first then added. always wondered about cg

[SpongeBobKinkyPants]

@chaibill with mudbox you basically digitally create something from clay. You start with a blob and mould and shape it to how you want and add textures and intricate detail. Takes years of practice to get as good as this guy though...

[MrHUNKDeath]

wow very cool work ! i don't know this autodesk before.

[abysss24]

Very nice :)

The blur effect makes it even nicer :)

[bluetounge]

@abysss24 that my firend is called Zdepth =)

[abysss24]

@bluetounge got it ;)

[TheSirMagus]

Song is

Rob D - Clubbed To Death

[jayeez10]

I'm Jealous

[Theicemonkeyjr]

This is one of my faves love the face

[shutzstaffel88]

could also make animation with this program?

[Theicemonkeyjr]

no, well morph targets but thats it

[gracore]

mmmmn id eat him fried...a bhuna perhaps? XD

[jefy234]

what song is that? delicious model man, thats supreme work

[Nemecys]

something on the matrix themes

[jefy234]

oh yea, crystal method i believe. thanks man

[Nemecys]

no probs dude =)

[LikeAVideo]

holy shit that is frihting nice

[brainiakbeatz]

thats tight,

whats better Mudbox or zbrush?

[zonfar]

ive barely used zbrush, but from my viewpoint im really interested in mudbox just because its made by mudbox so it seems like things would be more compatible with each other.

[brainiakbeatz]

how do i start sculpting on mudbox 2010?

im thoed like a frisbee, but im gonna open it up.

get at me

[ARGOSM]

really? the matrix song?

[Nappa818]

good job on the detail is this model complete ?

also it wouldn't hurt for some variation although the model looks solid its also very symmetrical

[archangel878]

klass

[Theicemonkeyjr]

man, this is unbelivable, so is this just low poly with bump painting on it?

[noggity]

Its the high res digital sculpt along wiht all the related subdivision levels.

[Theicemonkeyjr]

awsome,

[discipleofhoudini]

@Theicemonkeyjr in a few years sadly polly tech will be useless so dont worry about it

[Theicemonkeyjr]

@discipleofhoudini It wont ever be useless, even if point floating data takes over we can still model in polygons and convert. also that comment was 2 years ago lol

[noggity]

@Theicemonkeyjr no it is the sculpt and orginal low res

[TorrechiaraCinema]

My true form.

[Guitarsthatkill]

A canny lad, that Noggity. :)

[kanderso1]

wow. absolutely amazing work. how long did you spend on him?

[noggity]

about 2 1/2 hours over 2 nights as memory serves.

[soulrunner66]

Nice sculpt!

[GVFX]

what is the music?

[noggity]

Its by crystal method (I think ) from the matrix soundtrack.

[ieatcorm]

"clubbed to death" by rob dougan. from the matrix soundtrack

[xsjadoman1]

@noggity its called "clubbed to death" by Rob Dougan

[jcole60brit]

@noggity Clubbed to Death - Rob Dougan.

[nazaxprime]

@noggity Correct, its called "Clubbed to death."

[hugboxx]

@noggity actually, it's Clubbed to Death by Rob Dougan

[Gfors85]

@noggity Nope, its Rob Dougan - Clubbed To Death (Kurayamino Variation) :) Im wondering, the chest muscles attaching the arms looks abit flat and misses some dynamics, , I get the feeling with this model that its alittle too low poly and does not really help the normal map with making result. it feels kind of flat. I guess by now you should have made some real upgrades :)

[razordaplayer]

from counter strike (1.6) (background sound :D )

[TreborLightning]

omg he looks just like the mushroom guy off primeval

[Hex72]

Dude, the music is not by the Crystal Method.

Rob Dougan's your man.

[TheMasterElite]

Wort,

I'm an arthropod guy, but this thing doesn't look as "insectiod" as I was hoping for. :P

Nonetheless, its a nice piece of work, especially at 4 mil polys.

[cheshiretransform]

"haha only 4 million|" im so crap at this programs if my model had 4 million polys id be in heaven!

[DagMX]

polygons≠quality

that said, this model is awesome

[belagiorgo]

nice video card i just using right now 5750 nvidia 250mb really low that

[1mH4RD]

witch is better mudbox or Zbrush

[fleshtheworld]

iv tested both and i say mudbox is WAY!!!! better, its more artist friendly but i think zbrush runs better

[johngoundry86]

deffo mudbox......... its as easy as modeling with real clay....... as it should be

[belagiorgo]

what video card you using noggity?

[noggity]

a nvidia 9800gt (1gig)

[rabldrabblt]

How many polygons, I can't really tell?

[edmondm]

great keep on posting ....

[masterpiraka]

Man, I hate being an unwealthy hobbyist...

[triggerhappymarine]

im with ya

[noggity]

Yeah its weird how if you leave as a computer file...somepeople insist tht is not art..but pay to have the buge printed and suddenly it magcally turns into it lol. I think that says a lot about sucessful marketing lol.

But, yeah art is art no matter what the medium. Mud2k9 has realy opened up the old ideas shed for me I have to admit.

[noggity]

Its no longer in beta mate..its on general release. Autodesk have a set release schedule for stuff like this. I woudn't be suprised to see service packs or updates though.

[BpoTMHeHogu]

hi good work, this wip for somthing site? where i can find modeling progress?

[ALZeusMistajokka]

5/5 keep it up...& FAV...

[GamesByOurselves]

There going to be a public beta test with mudbox, i want to try it out now after seeing all your stuff.

[noggity]

Its already out....was released on 6th october :)
