Post Your First Medium Sculpts!

I did the materials by using different layers in Medium, and then exporting and cleaning the OBJ mesh a bit. It already exports one mesh per layer, so it's easy to assign separate materials. But I couldn't get the vertex color, so I finally did similar shaders and lighting in Blender using Cycles.

Thx for the explanation. Could you please create a new post and explain it again in details ? 
Cycle is amazing

EDIT : Ho well, i just tried and it's super easy

My first blender cycle rendering of my 1st medium work, both WIP. the lightning need some works but so does the the sculpture

Really good to see Cycles renders of Medium sculpts. Reassuring. My end goal is Unreal Engine but if I can get it into blender then the job's done!

Moar zombies. Well bits of zombies anyway. Started as anatomy practice so no cheaty stamping. Hands and arms are a bit new to me and, well, I ended up with this dismembered arm and then there was some green paint and one thing led to another...

Wed for me.

This is my second sculpt.  Still learning the tools and this was the first time I played with stamps. 

This was exported, retopologized with Mudbox and then textured in Substance Painter which is where this shot is from.

Pity me for I have no artistic skill so the fact I could produce this in a short period of time is awe inspiring amazing software. I am now going to try to print him out!

Scratch sculpt #2, about 3 hours. Medium isn't everything I'd hoped, but it's far easier to get into than painting on a tablet. With time and support it could become extremely powerful.

Man Im loving these renders in blender! I might have to try a Maya render! ::)

Texturing seems like it might be a problem since i imagine the UV maps are horrible? maybe i'll have to try a robot too!

Edit: holy shit I just exported the rock sculpt and it was 1.4GB with 10mil verts

D'ya think baking would work? I was going to try this for normals anyway. Not sure if mental Medium mesh would crash blender tho. Anyone tried it?

P3nT4gR4m

Okay so I just tried and it worked. I imported into Meshlabs, saved it out as collada (as per Naomi's instructions in the Maya thread. 

Next I imported into blender, duped the mesh and ran a remesh modifier (in leau of proper retopology). Next I did a quick and dirty auto uv unwrap then baked the albedo onto that. Here's how it looks in Unreal.







Of course where the hell am I going to find the time to retopo, given that I'm currently spending EVERY WAKING MINUTE IN MEDIUM!!!

Rib-Man! 

Who is "Rib-Man" you might ask? Well, he's a homeless superhero that has a mullet and ribs for wings! Don't ask.

Learned a lot in Medium on this one. Rendered in Marmoset Toolbag 3

Click the gear on your sculpting hand and under "contraints" you'll see something that says "line". If my memory serves me right.

@vr_human nice!! what did you render that with?

P3nT4gR4m

Started off scribbling on a lowres head stamp and ended up going in some kind of Baron of Hell direction

The sculpts are just getting more awesome, think we're well beyond first sculpt now... currently green with envy at everyone who's able to render outside of Medium. Got the tools but not the skills

WIP...


Giving the impression that something is hairy, with out actually being able to draw hair, is hard! One of those quandaries of how much detail is enough.

I think I might have cracked it

Here's my first go, not really happy with the lighting yet but I think I'm going to like this. Can anyone tell me where medium saves your pictures?

FrozenPea

@Skreed Nice! Reminds me of the moon in Zelda!

you can find your photos in 'My Documents' folder under Medium
