TIE Fighter style cordless speaker heads

[Despot]

Modelled these yesterday in Groboto, further modelling and detailing in ZBrush then textured and rendered in KeyShot - wasn't going to post them as I'm ill at the moment with a virus of some sort (I think)... been puking my guts up all day long.

Anyway, at some point I might finish them off with stems and stand. I'm not a product designer, so don't look at these from that standpoint... they were just the result of an hours playing around in the sandboxes that are Groboto, ZBrush & KeyShot

The cross-ply bamboo texture is mine so is the hull plate texture on the main body. I had to physically restrain myself not to distress or damage them in some way in ZBrush, it's quite a departure for me to leave something clean 

No post whatsoever, just a tiny bit of bloom added in KS

Thanks for looking

p.s. Do I need to worry about ILM/Geordie Lucas  ?

Sorry to hear about your stomach virus, but wow! Those images are hot!! Can't wait to see more of these when you're running on 100%!

Very nice J - Shame about the wood texture messing about, otherwise excellent stuff mate. Get well soon

Man, these are sick!  Oops- not the right word!  Stunning!  I'm not familiar with the modeling apps, but if possible, you can map the wood surfaces (any colors work) in such a manner as to align the grain in KS.  Keep 'em coming, and get well!

love it, love it, love. Really makes me want to try Groboto. You may  inspire some stylish new drone design
