nice work !!!
Hahaaa! A fan of Ozark I see…
Great series, and excellent choice for your character… That guy is terrifying!
You did a great job of capturing his features!
Thank you alf0!
I enjoyed the show indeed. It was quite dark which i happen to like and the character of mister mullan just hit me as terrifying he was. Thank you for your kind words Nunud.
Beautiful sculpt!
Much appreciated yakuzakazuya! I think i need to start learning retopo to push my sculpting a bit further though. Maybe some animated camera movements which in this case is not even possible because there is no sculpted detail behind the head at all.
I use blender for the renders of models to later paint over. Kind of glad I don’t need to retopo my sculpts for my purpose at this time
Or I just use tesselator addon for autoretopology if I need to multires for extra details.
Cheers mate!
yeeeeehaaaaa!!! amazing job
Wow, really beautiful sculpt and a great series! Did you sculpt the hair and beard too? Any textures/alphas used for the sculpt?
Thank you. I sculpted hair and beard using just the basic brushes, clay stripes and drawbrush. I started with a big brush size and went smaller and smaller as soon as the form started to appear. I have bamboo pen and touch tablet as my working gear. It does the job
For the skin and hat I used some skinbrushes and stamps:
For the rest of the scuplture i used just some noise texture with the basic brush just to calm down the shiny clay.
And btw for the lighting i used poliigons three point studio lights if somebody is interested.
Beautiful work and detail! How long did it take you?
Much appreciated Chamine. I think somewhere between 10-20h? Few hours here and there in a few months period of time. I like to do this as a hobby kind a slow.
That’s pretty quick for that level of detail! Kudos to u!
best blender sculpt I’ve seen so far
Nice work!! Great proportions and the hair detail is awesome!
I would just play more with the lights. I think there is too much shadow on his eyes, which are one of the main points of interest in a portrait.
I was looking at this sculpture https://www.artstation.com/artwork/ydEqQ yesterday on Artstation. I think it is a really good reference for lighting studies. And the artist took time to try several different lighting scenarios.
Again, amazing sculpture! Keep up the good work!
Thank you Daniel for your kind words and also your time for critique. That artstation study was actually really helpful for my learning proces and that sculpture is just wonderful.
I rebember having some difficulties with the lighting indeed. In the other hand i wanted to show the sculpture in a light that reviel it properly but i also wanted to give some feeling that the man is staring and judging his opponent in a creepy manner. Maybe there could have been some other light angle which had served that purpose better.
That is too kind of you but thanks czesiek!
