experimenting with Zbrush

 ok, if you saw my earlier posts, you might have thought that there's a bit too much of blues and grays. Well, that's what I thought at least :). Anyway I hope it didn't bore you too much, because now I think I managed to find a solution for that , hip hip hurrah :).

I've tried to sculpt something without any sketches , just pure imagination :) and voila...
