Dino the Dragon

by CamillaMarinelli on 1 May 2023 for Rookie Awards 2023

Dino is a concept art made at Skyup Academy. It is my first 3D sculpture work. It was made in ZBrush, rendered in Maya 2023 with V-Ray and post-produced in Photoshop.

"Dino the Dragon" is my first work at Skyup Academy, made during the digital sculpting module. Below you will find the final renderings.

They assigned each of us students a different concept. Below you will find the reference from which I created my work.

In the following puref there are references that vary from dragon anatomy to other animals that have similar shapes or postures to the original reference (e.g. bat wings). Additionally, the pureref includes various textures of different animals (e.g. snakes/lizards) that have been used as a reference to recreate the skin and scales of the dragon.

In the following screenshots you will see the various modeling steps in Zbrush. I started with the Zspheres as an initial block phase and then proceeded to sculpt the various parts of the body more precisely. Then I moved on to creating all the little details (e.g. the veins of the wings and the scales of the body) to finish with the final pose.

As a final step, I added some green and purple lights (the first pic on the left is the photo that I took as a reference).
