In September, at Gnomon Workshop Live, we had the opportunity to see how several 3D artists use KeyShot in their workflow. One of the talented young lads was none other than Dominic Qwek, a character artist who can work up a creature concept faster than you can carve a chunk of cheese with a meat cleaver. It was an absolute shame that the rest of the world wasn’t able to see his session. Fortunately, Gnomon has made it possible for all to experience his expertise with a new tutorial from Dominic on how to create realistic skin using ZBrush and KeyShot.
How to Create Realistic Skin with ZBrush and KeyShot
Dominic Qwek covers how to create realistic skin for his creature designs using ZBrush and KeyShot with post processing completed in Photoshop. KeyShot’s translucent shader is explained, as well as its HDR lighting features, for photo-realistic and interactive rendering.
The course is available for digital download ($49.00), through Gnomon subscription ($499/yr) and soon via DVD. If you ned a seat of KeyShot to follow along, you can download a free trial here. Note: The GoZ plugin mwntioned in the video is curretly in closed beta and undergoing additional development.
