Tennogen WIPs, need advice

[RazorTip]

Not sure how many folks on here use Sculptris, but I've decided to (finally) make some warframe-related models, of which I really, really hope to upload to the Tennogen Workshop to be evaluated.

Problem is, I've no idea how to make that happen. Anyhoo, let me showcase what I've made so far, they're just Works-In-Progress, as I'm pretty much a greenhorn with Sculptris and have yet to use Blender.

That's all for now, I have another render, of an infested hybrid warframe, but I'll tweak it a little more tomorrow and upload some screens. 

All feedback and criticism is welcome, as well as advice as to what I should do or fix, I'm still a newbie at this.

You have a good sense of aesthetics... Check out some of the professionals sculpts and look at the amount of detail and work they put in. First try copying them until you are sure you can make one yourself that is on that level. Also when you are making a body you cant change the original mesh. Download the original assets from their site. Hope this helped you

Thanks for the advice, I'll keep trying to improve upon my renders. I've seen some of your stuff, it's pretty solid.

i use scultptris , i find it easier then zbrush...

going from concept to created content can seem a bit confusing , ive contemplated making some tutorials as i myself have been struggling with it 

if you have questions feel free to pm and ill answer as best i can , i know it can be a rocky road

Yeah, thank you, concepts are easy to make on paper, the hard part is transitioning into a 3d model... even with Sculptris' easy to use interface, there's a lot of thing I don't know and don't understand fully. I recently downloaded the Tennogen tool, along with Excalibur's model and textures, but something's bothering me, do I really need Photoshop to help finalize my concepts?

this thread lists all the tools you might need as well as some tutorials and places to find tutorials.

Thanks, forgot to mention that I also installed Blender. Looks a tad more complicated, though.

blender is good for the UV map part

Photoshop isnt a need... you could use gimp (free) 

the main factor is understanding the application of painting to model then unwrapping the maps (UV mapping) this is were im at in my process

Made another concept in Sculptris, a helm for Banshee based on speakers and gramophones.

...don't say it's for Saryn because of how it looks... T^T

Great work, but i don't see how it resembles saryn, it really fits Banshee.

Are you planning on adding Speaker like  shapes to her head, Because i think it might look good.

"Was planning", more like. I'm making a new one from scratch, the one I uploaded looks too much like a flower. And since Saryn is all about poison and flowers...

Oh, Now i see it(man,am slow). On the bright side, you  unintentionally made a pretty saryn helmet.
