Slimer Work in progress shots 1


This post will show some of the work in progress shots from a character I started in Z-brush a few months back. It's "Slimer" from the ghost buster’s the movie and series. If you don't know the character that well, he is a ghost that eats like a black hole and slimes on everybody. Currently the detail is allot further along within z-brush; I will make a post now so that you can see it in comparison later.

I will be focusing on the arms, hands, teeth and rolls of the body. My computer is not keeping up very well with the added geometry and subdivisions. I am in at least double the division count now focusing on major details of the hands first.

The characters arms have been replaced once to better allow for flow in the 3D anatomy of the face. The eyes are placeholders until animated spheres are added later; I created this character because I am fond of the style and would like to build a small animation loop of this character hovering for a 3D rotation.


I started with this reference shot from a toy off the internet.
