Yesterday I began creating this African woman. This is my first character ever errrrr
Will make her body next.
I’m starting everything with sculpting and will do retopology once the model is done.
Let mo know what you think.
Current status:
I agree, it looks pretty good to me. Good job especially for a first timer! Look forward to the progress and final. Keep it up! Also what Vonzaku mentioned about the jaw might be a bit wide at the back of the jaw I think that’s about all I noticed as well. Really captured the subject quite well.
Thanks guys!
So, you are right, the jaw was too much. I noticed that when I began sculpting the body, so I softened it a bit, and the neck too. Here’s an update:
As for the body, I’m going for slim and fit. So no hour glass shape for me
Unfortunately, I am slow, plus have only a few hours during the day to work on this, so my progress is not as fast as I would like.
Once the thighs are done and the proportions are right, I’ll move on to the rest of the body parts.
I finished the first round of sculpting, and I now need fresh new eyes to examine the model and tell me if the proportions are right or if there is something I can improve. Thanks!
Edit: someone already suggested I work on the proportions of the arms and fingers and improve the overall anatomy, so I’m working on that.
okey! just have in mind that this has a lot of limitations, and also that the image was lowres, for the head just use the other one as reference.
At the hand please fix the pose, it looks so unatural
Yes, there is a very good explenation for the red eyes.
As for the retopology, it didn’t go so well. Will have to repeat the process if I want to rig the model.
Hope you like this sneak peek
Oh haha that yucky stuff in the corner? I can add the shape, but I can’t promise the material will be good. Thanks for the awesome tip! I wrote a note to remember that.
Okay, so things have evolved since I last posted. I redid the retopo, which made the face less realistic for loss of details. But I kinda like it like this. Don’t think I’ll use the Multires modifier.
I placed a little something in the eyes as a reminder to Tonatiuth’s comment.
That’s it for now. More work ahead…
