It's hard to believe five years have already flown by since I started working at Dreamworks Animation. Back in 2009 I had no idea how much I would learn from all of the talented artists that I'm lucky enough to call co-workers.
Here's something I finished recently, a pre-pinup era "Ziegfeld Girl", probably from the late 1920's. I've had the idea for this project for a while, and decided to go for it as a way further my experience with Zbrush. Later on I plan to do some lighting and rendering. I'll post an update once I do. ![]() A little history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziegfeld_girl "Ziegfeld Girls were the chorus girls from Florenz Ziegfeld's theatrical spectaculars known as the Ziegfeld Follies (1907–1931), which were based on the Folies Bergère of Paris. These showgirls followed on the heels of the "Florodora girls", who had started to "loosen the corset" of the Gibson Girl in the early years of the twentieth century. These beauties, of similar size, decked out in Erté designs, gained many young male admirers and they became objects of popular adoration. Many were persuaded to leave the show to marry, some to men of substantial wealth. The Ziegfeld Ball in New York City continued as a social event of the season for years after the last production of the Follies." |
