Our most recent addition to the turntable gallery has provided us with seven images to feast our eyes on. Jason de Loos is a young artist just starting in his career, but he’s well on his way to being an industry giant! He definitely has an eye for anatomy and has an knack for putting his sculpts in dynamic poses. We look forward to seeing more from him in the future.

Take a look at all of the images in Jason’s Turntable Gallery and follow his artwork at ZBrushCentral.

We would like to extend a warm welcome to Guy Labbe, our newest member of the Turntable Gallery. Working from the front wheel back, Guy improvised as he went using the Shadow Box function. With the freedom to create as he went, the tricycle began to take shape. The end result is pretty fantastic and we can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!

See Guy’s tricycle in the round at the Turntable Gallery.

Our newest member to the Turntable Gallery, Joe De La Tore, has provided us with two of his sculpts to see in the round. The base mesh in his first sculpt, Remi the Werewolf, was created with ZSpheres and then retopologized using QRemesher. He continued in ZBrush, utilizing the sculpting and texturing tools, as well as FiberMesh for the fur. And the final render was done using BPR. Joe’s second sculpt, Swamp Thing, was done in very much the same manner.

View Joe’s artwork in the round at the Turntable Gallery, and see more artwork and his work in progress at his User Gallery at ZBrushCentral.

Our latest Top Row nod goes to artist Miroslav Petrov. The anatomy in his sculpts is incredible, and his textures and renders are inspirational as well. He has a way of balancing imagination and technical skill, which is what catapulted him to the top row. This thread is worth keeping an eye on since he said he would be posting a video of his process within the coming weeks. We can’t wait to see what he’ll come up with next!

Our newest addition to the Turntable Gallery comes to us courtesy of newcomer Maxime Dauphinais. The character, “Renekton,” comes from Riot Games and is inspired by the Egyptian god Sobek. The model was created for a sculpting contest where Maxime came in third. Although he was formally trained in Maya, Maxime uses ZBrush for all of his personal works because of the ease of use and the time saving features.

Take a look at Maxime’s “Renekton” at the Turntable Gallery.
