Cybergirl
with Steven Stahlberg

Course starts 26 May 2008.

Registration: Closed

The CGWorkshops Cybergirl classes have always been popular with the CGSociety community and we are pleased to announce that internationally acknowledged, world class digital artist and Maya Master Steven Stahlberg is back to repeat his highly popular Cybergirl workshop.

Accurate and evocative depiction of female form has challenged artists since mankind began drawing - from Botticelli to Rembrandt, Matisse to Cezanne, Brom to Vallejo. In more recent years the rise of the Cybergirls, Cyberbabes and Cyberchicks has added a new genre. However the challenges remain the same, how to best depict alluring and beautiful women?

In this class, students will cover the basic elements required to model, texture and accessorize the female form in 3D. The course will cover referencing, anatomy, polygonal framing, topology, modeling, texturing, workflow, accessorizing and joint deformation.

Have a look at Steven's Showreel here and his CG Portfolio here.

“.... it's been an incredible experience. Probably the most concentrated learning I've done in CG, and I'd recommend it to anyone.”
Richard Nichols, Student

“I have said it before in other threads but want to repeat it: terrific course, very high-detail advanced knowledge you share here. I will certainly need a few months before I have worked all that into my own stuff.”
Oliver Wuensch, Student

”Thankyou for your guidance Steven! I find that your modeling technique is so intuitive that it has already become second nature for me. I'll be continuing to work on my character over the next couple of months as I intend to use her in an upcoming animation project.”
Jason Hue, Student

” Thanks Steven - This course is worth much more than the price, in fact you can not put a price tag on it. ”
Klaus Knuth, Student

” I think I learned more in the workshop than I learned entirely in college.”
