It's a test. Zbrush test.If you have this dustbin (I hope it's the good word in english, I used babel fish).

Anyway, for those which have this dustbin will understand, for the others, the dustbin inspired me the mouth and after the whole rest.

A character I started from a zbrush test (you can see it in my gallery). I adjusted the body shape to get a more cartoon look instead of the realistic one I had before. I tried to design something like a little satan. I also reworked the head proportion in zbrush. Modeled in max and zbrush and all the color correction in Photoshop cs3. Rendered with mental ray. I used a lot decimation plug-in in Zbrush.

Comments and critics are welcome. Thank!]]> Mon, 27 Jul 2009 22:39:20 +0000 http://pikmin.cgsociety.org/gallery/775742

A character I did for a zbrush test. I started modeling with a generic human face and designed something else.

I took an old head I made a long time ago and I played with the proportion and find a new desing for it. All the proportion was done using Zbrush and I adjusted all the modeling in max. All details are done in zbrush again and after rendered in Max.

Thx to the new zbrush plug in, Decimation master. Go try it if you don't by the way.

All color correction was done in photoshop.

At first all I wanted is saturate color and play with hair and fur a little, so came up with this idee. I tried also to build some kind of character proportion sheet with more extrem shape than normal anatomy and in the futur build my own weird character proportion sheet and use it for a short.

A fake pub inspired by such compagny as Calvin Klein and Hugo Boss. I tried to explore the same kind of idee and pose for this kind of publicity and bring it in a refreshing way.

I used 3d studio max 2008 for the base model and worked it with Zbrush 3.1 and I used photoshop cs 2 where I ajusted all the color and added some lights.

The squid was an old model never finished. I needed some kind of a creature to put on the head, so it was perfect and I used it.

It's an animation for Beenox Activision introduction I did last year, for the beginning of James Bond Quantum of Solace for WII.The first animation I publish I think.


The animation had to be snappy. The robot is designed by Daniel Boulancher, modeled by Hugue Thibodeau, effect and render by Ghyslain Richard, Sound by Yannick Blanchette.

Special thank to Mario Greendale who worked also on this as a special effect and composition guy at the beginning of it. He died this summer in a parachute accident. A really great guy.

Clive Owen it's the name of my reel cat. I'm not a Clive Owen fan freak, don't worry, but it's a running gag we have in the animation team where I work.

It's been a while I wanted to make an living creature cut in half and it was the base idee. It's a cat used to live like that.

I done it in 3ds MAx 2008, Zbrush 3.1 and photoshop cs2. The basic mesh in max and rest of the detail and texture in zbrush. I exported the final zbrush mesh in MAX (350k poly approx) and render it with mental ray. All color ajustment in photoshop.

Hope you like it, Comment and critic are welcome.

It's a new charactere I made, a new kind of animal for kids. He look maybe a little ...humm... unhappy, but it's not dangerous... I think.

I did it in max , zbrush and photoshop. It was very fast, I did the modeling and design in 1 night. After the major part of the time I was tunning the lighting and composition. I imported the base model in zbrush and did a lot of ajustment and detail and bring it back in max. I used the skin shader from Jonas character at Gnomon, very cool.

A new character I made for a decoration I wanted for my place. I wanted something clean with vivid color. The first concept was a girl robot , but I ended up with a child look. COmment and critic are welcome.]]> Mon, 17 Mar 2008 03:38:20 +0000 http://pikmin.cgsociety.org/gallery/559076

I'm trying to focus more on Zbrush and I just discover how powerful this program is. I start this head with a really basic realistic head I did in max and change all in zbrush 3.1. I wanted to try a diffrent approch with wolverine. I wont finish it because the uv is really bad and my mesh is collaspe with too much poly :P.]]> Thu, 08 Nov 2007 02:42:20 +0000 http://pikmin.cgsociety.org/gallery/526384

I wanted to model a little baby , but after having seen Master and Commander, I was impress to see kids with so much responsability. So I change the character to fit in this movie and I look a lot stuff for reference like Napoleon painting and other neoclassicism.

Comment are welcome. Hope you like it.]]> Tue, 27 Feb 2007 02:02:26 +0000 http://pikmin.cgsociety.org/gallery/378998

I wanted to push a little bit more the type of character I make. At first, I design it with legs and arm, but I decide to erase it and try something new. On my past picture, the mouth of my character was close mostly, so I make this one wide open .

Its a mix between "fou du roi" and squid on a candy cane. I don't really know. In fact, I had no particular focus for the type of character I wanted this time, I just experiment thing. Made in max, render with mental ray and color correct in photoshop. Comment and critic are welcome.]]> Sun, 09 Jul 2006 05:35:50 +0000 http://pikmin.cgsociety.org/gallery/415404

Hi there!
I called it Killer no2 because Its like the continuation of the killer I made 2 years ago (look at my avatar ). I wanted to make a character who is proud of him with opposite kind of clothes. I try to not use any gun or anything else, just a proud pose. I used Max8 and photoshop for color correction. Comment and critic are welcome! Thanks!

Dead Harry is a desperate guys who decide to kill himself. This picture is just 10 min after is dead.
This one was interesting to do , because I just draw a side view sketch of the head and try to find during the modeling process a front view design that fit. So I try lot of different thing and I learn a lot. I remember during this projet, I was listening Gorillaz last album very often, I think the music influence me a lot.
Hope you like it. Comment and critic are welcome.
