Hello! Like several of the other artists here, ThunderCats was one of my favorite cartoons as a child. I especially liked Cheetara, she was Hot! My work is unfinished, although it was still a lot of fun and quite a learning experience. I've not spent much time with Zbrush, and this was the first time to REALLY use the program.

This process was a combination of 3DMax, Photoshop and a little World Machine thrown in. Hope you enjoy it.     READ MORE
