The most recent Top Row thread comes from artist Ali Zafati (aka zaliti), who is no stranger to the gallery. All of the models were made in ZBrush, and final composting was done in Photoshop.

Today’s Top Row thread is brought to us courtesy of a ZBC member who goes by “jempix”. The sculpt, titled “Usual Suspects | John Doe | 376214,” was made using DynaMesh and rendered using the BPR feature. It’s excellent work and we can’t wait to see more form this artist in the future!

The most recent Top Row thread comes to us from artist aidin-crow. The thread features a book that was made for the epic poem, “Shahnameh,” written by the Persian poet Ferdowsi between c.977 and 1010 AD. The book is two years in the making, and the first time anyone has attempted to create one for this story using anything other than traditional Iranian drawings and miniatures. A great undertaking indeed! Check out the thread and the magnificent artwork at ZBrushCentral.
