Sculpting the Torso - Part 3

Teaching how to sculpt the torso and sculpting the torso in a real life scenario look a little bit different. In this video I demonstrate how I might approach sculpting the torso for a personal project.

Sculpting the Torso - Part 2

In this lesson we finish off the front of our torso by incorporating the muscles and fat pads :)

Sculpting the Torso - Part 1

Hello!

As you should be aware I recently made some changes to my Patreon. One of these changes is to switch to "Subscription Billing" (Patreon are pushing all creators towards this). What this means is that Patreon now behaves kinda like Netflix - you pay a monthly subscription and gain acc...

Posing the mannequin

Today I rigged the mannequin and tried out a few poses. I also added a few background elements to give me an idea of how the final image might look.

While useful, it has made me realise that having the ability to fire out some thumbnail sketches would be much more efficient, so that's som...

DannyMac3D Art Challenge - May 2024

In case you're not part of the discord community (which I strongly recommend), I recently announced that there will be a (hopefully monthly) art challenge for my patrons. Each month a new theme will be revealed and the goal is to create a 3D character / artwork based on that theme. I explain all ...

Little late sharing this as I had to get clearance for the (sponsored) YouTube Video

Was a really fun piece to make as I used VR for most of it! I was a bit sceptical at first but it was actually a lot of fu...

Tinkerbell Scene Files

Hey!

I was a bit reluctant to share the tinkerbell scene files because after posting I was a bit disappointed with the result... buuuuut, a few of you seem keen to get hold of it so I have prepared it and attached it to this post. Hope it's useful! :)

Nani!

Hi all, sorry it's been a bit quiet - there's a lot going on beneath the surface!

Just wanted to share with you the final render of Nani and let you know the scene files are now available on Gumroad! https://dannyma...

Discord Link

Hey!

A few of you have been having trouble getting into the Discord server. I think there's an issue with the Patreon->Discord link as well as how the billing works. So to make things easier, I've added a link below. Please don't share it about as I would like to keep the server for you ...

Next Lesson - The Torso

Just a quick update to let you know in the next lesson we're going to be looking at the torso.

At first I had planned to approach these lessons similar to the head course - by building up shapes step by step - and we will! But as I started planning out the lesson it occurred to me how ...
