3 Friends. This is a re-creation in 3D of a little sculpture which sits on my desk. [3 Friends] / [gallery]

ZBrush 3.5 Release 3 for Windows is out and this is a first very quick sculpt (4-5 hours).
Here is a series of work in progress images which show the modeling process of my new Focke Wulf 190 A8 model.
The new edition of the EXPOSE book by BallisticPublishing will begin shipping next week and I was informed a few weeks ago that one of my images, "Portrait of a Silent Man" is to appear in the book. More information about this [book] (inlcuding a picture of me and my book, looking very proud *smile*).
Right now I'm working on a new Focke Wulf plane and I have a lot of different objects in the scene. Most of them have their own Symmetry and HyperNurbs object. While I have a plugin for disabling/enabling all HyperNurbs objects at once, I couldn't find one for the Symmetry objects. And I was in need for one, because my scene was getting heavy with all these objects. Disabling them all by hand was a real pain because they are buried in the hierarchy. So I quickly created a COFFE plugin for this purpose. You can download the plugin [here]
Well, that's not an attempt on modeling the Joker, no, I uploaded a new tutorial. This step-by-step tutorial is about on how to use Morph Targets and the Smooth Tool to create Polygroup selections in ZBrush 3 in complicated areas such as the mouth. An example show how to mask out the lower lip and upper lip to open the mouth. [read it]
Finally, after a very long time I finished a new project. I spent on it parts of my free time during almost half a year now. The results can be viewed in the gallery or click the image banner above to go to the image right now.
My new webpage is now online. I changed the design and improved the gallery page. You now have the possibility to sort the thumb view by image name, category or date which means you can see which image was uploaded last.
I finally said good-bye to the good old HTML table model and switched to CSS.
Some pages are still under construction as for example the WIP page and the guestbook, but I will do my best to put these online as fast as possible.
