Join us for an exclusive livestream event featuring Dan Katcher, the acclaimed Los Angeles-based creature designer known for his Emmy-nominated dragon designs on HBO's Game of Thrones! Dan's career highlights feature diverse projects for DC Comics Productions, alien designs for Green Lantern and sculptures for Sideshow Collectibles.

Dan provides a comprehensive overview of his artistic journey, sharing insights into his career as a sculptor and tips for becoming an expert in the field. He also showcases his expertise in ZBrush through a series of live demos. This segment centers on how to create anatomy by working from the inside out (muscles, bones, and structure to skin and surface detail) and applying scale patterns to a mesh to achieve realistic results. Dan also explores the process of preparing designs for manufacturing, utilizing Dynamesh and Sculptress Mode in ZBrush to create detailed collectibles.
