whoa, insane! awesome! =D
what techniques is it?
Ty =)
That is pure CG. The Enki it self is sculpted in zbrush and everything else is made with Photoshop (colours, background etc.). Basically i made a 3d black and white object that had only light information. Then i exported it to photoshop and tweaked that to look good (fur, etc) and then i coloured it and made that background. Tools i used in photoshop was: brush, colour dodge, colour burn, blur, smudge and leaf-like brush to make those leafs.
That technique it self should be quite easy for anyone...and quite fast. But for me it took quite a while because i am still learning and i have just learned the basics only (and my computer should be used as an anchor, if the good of human kind is in mind).
If everything would have gone like in the movies that picture would have taken around 3h-6h to complete… I used around 20h (6-8h in zbrush, rest in PS)… a week if considered that first I learned to sculpt…
I am quite pleased my self with that picture… But I am quite worried that I just got lucky and that’s the best I can do… Though I am making a new image, I have modelled it and photoshopping is on its way. Hope to get it here within few days =)
Edit:
Now i got my image somewhat ready...

Not so good, in my opinion as that last one… at all… but i hope u like it. It's made with same method as the last one: character shadows / lightning in zbrush, everything else with photoshop brushing. (if there is anyone who is interested to know how that was done..

)
Edit2:
First i thought i dont post this second version, but then i thought this way i can get some feedback what u think about it. I like those shadows more, but it still lacks something.. dont know what. And now, it is too dark... Well, hopefully next one is better...
