This one was real fun. But at the same time a pain in the neck (sculpting the fur). He was done in ZBrush from a very simple ZSphere base mesh. Thanks for watching and C&C are welcome.

I was busy with an demo part for a "Odol med 3" animatic. It was lot's of work - much back and forth - but now it's done
I'd like to share the mouth stuff (It can not give away the plot). The teeth and gumms are improoved versions of the ones from my earlier post - done in ZBrush. Man I was happy to have this application... so real in such a short time!!! Textures and rendering is Cinema 4D.

C+C are welcome and Thanks for watchning

Lately I was asked to do some stuff for an "Odol med3" (toothpaste)animatic for consumer tests. Just some demo parts. I used a basemesh from Alex Alvarez from http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com

So thanks for that, Alex.

For the short amount of time I had, I'm really happy with the result. For the final animatic the stuff was textured and rendered in CINEMA 4D.

Thanks for watching - C+C welcome!]]> Fri, 13 Feb 2009 03:06:46 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/729705

This one is for practicing reasons. I modeled her after great reference stuff over at 3d.sk! The model's name is Iva.

Hope you like it ]]> Fri, 13 Feb 2009 03:26:46 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/729704

This one was for fun and to test out the 3D volume shader for wood inside of CINEMA 4D. So far I'm pretty happy with the result. This is all done in CINEMA 4D - no retushing or post in Photoshop on the wood. Only the Background is an image.
Hope You like it

This one is for a title on a Henkel - Folder / Flyer. I did modeling and rendering in Cinema 4D and added the layer of the actual R 740 in Photoshop + some tweeking for the caustics.

This time I wanted to focus on shading skin, as you can see ;-)
It took me quite some time to finish, because I found the light situation and the relationship between for-, mid- and background rather tricky this time. Anyway I did have fun and I hope you have, too.

C&C are welcome as always

There is war upon the new elfking. To protect the women and children he and his army headed toward the enemy at the borders of his kingdom. His wife stayed to defend her unborn child. The king left his mighty dragon to protect them both from infalling intruders, who were send from the dark forces of the enemy, of course. This time the queen and her guardian were victorious - but there are more to come...of course.


Ok, at one point during the process I feel the piece is finished. Whether it is or not. This time it's the background ;-) I tried more detail, but to me it ruined the scale. I wanted to concentrate on the feeling. I don't want to see the room and all the fallen orgs or what ever. I wanted to show the lonleyness and the lack of hope and the temptation of giving up. Which she wouldn't and the dragon could not But they grow more tierd each day.

C+C are most welcome

The Pelikan fountain pen is modeld, textured and rendered in Cinema 4D. Very littel color correction and adding a very little bit of grain was done in Photoshop. The Backgraund is a Photo from fotolia.de. Hope you like it and C & C are always welcome.

This is a Head I built for an animatic. It's for consumer tests. The agency was Grey Woldwide in Düsseldorf, the client was Odol Med 3a toothpaste. It is where the demo part of the animatic will take place. The Head is form my old Stahlberg Model. The inner Mouth is completely new. The Head is not ment to be seen as a whole so I skipped the hair ;-).
It was a tight schedule, as usual. Its quick & dirty, but I like it...
Skin textures started from fotos, and are refined in BodyPaint. The tongue and gums are procedural shaders out of Cinema 4D. I did sketch the gums in ZBrush but in the end it ended up all in C4D.

C + C always welcome! ]]> Fri, 25 Apr 2008 13:09:33 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/575583

This is my attempt for my X-Mas Card this Year. It was inspired by a most famous Perry Pin Up. But I haven't had the heart to send it to my agency clients ;-)) So I share it with you all!

It's modeled and rendered in CINEMA 4D except for the hair and the wings. They are PhotoShop since I don't have hair for C4D. I do hope you like it.

C&C are of course welcome]]> Fri, 21 Dec 2007 14:05:24 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/558379

This is no big deal, but I love the pureness and the peace of it. Actually this was a test render of a soap bubble shader. Hope you like it such as I do... lighting is only a HDRI from Dosch Design, jou see in the back.]]> Tue, 06 Nov 2007 12:43:36 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/558351

This was one of the last test renders for a price fight challange. Unfortunatly I was not able to finish the contest :(

The background is a mate painting I made for it.

But I liked the characters alot and still do. I may pick up this to finish it...

crits / commands are welcome of course ]]> Tue, 06 Nov 2007 11:21:00 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/558346

Long time no posts from me

This image was made for Henkel, Germany to intrduce a new product, wich would make less dust than the everege...
The job was to create the room and the dust around the models, which were shot in the studio. I also modeld the cable. This way I had more freedom in setting up the scenes The lighting is a HDRI + one parallel light. The background is an image from fotolia.de. The floor is painted in PhotoShop with help of some free textures on the web (Mayang's).

Commands/ crit welcome]]> Tue, 06 Nov 2007 10:45:20 +0000 http://klausknuth.cgsociety.org/gallery/482067

This is my cybergirl character from Steven Stahlberg's CYBERGIRL V Workshop, wich we recently finished (BTW: demanding but HIGHLY recommanded!!! Thanks again Steven. She is inspired or based on the model Erin Wasson.
I did all the modeling in Cinema 4d. Her skin textures, minor details and of course the hair was done in PhotoShop. There is some geometry hair to cast some shadow.The backgraund is an image from Forolia.de.

Her name is Erin Wagenfeld. She did study architecture on the eastcost of USA for some semester, but switched than to design and photography, I believe in Austin Texas. Her childhood she spent with her parents in the midwest. Due to her german roots (Wagenfeld = an architect who imigrated in the U.S. in 1932) she seams to be a bit cold or untouchable and people think they couldn't get through to her... but that atract them on the other Hand. She knows that and plays with it - and this is also part of her success in job. She is busy all around the world and we catch her just in such an occasion...

Comments / critiques are most wellcome...

sincerely
