This took me about a bit longer than a month. I really wanted to study a torso skeleton from a scan rather than traditional simplified bones. It was the hardest sculpt Ive done! Simplified anatomy would have saved my mind but Im stubborn and I finally figured out the odd form changes. I also finally got denoising to work with fine procedural bump. The key was using a .03 noise threshold which requires a lower sample level to keep render times fast. ![view1](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/5/a/b/5abbc03c90308f9ca7a094c1765595bce3815a05.jpeg) ![view2](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/f/3/6/f36fe260cca3c65c097fd506a7255e2e4d8a6854.jpeg) ![view3](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/8/e/3/8e3e0c4d6dd8eb1957ceed208aa15ed23ef0068e.jpeg) ![view4](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/2/7/f/27f87cfe44abd28eae6ea409f4c49cc9d37bffe6.jpeg) ![view5](https://blenderartists.org/uploads/default/original/4X/4/f/4/4f456576a38077c2ce139a8cb1f309d75a68916d.jpeg) ---

Each phase added more detail. And took progressive more time. First one show the scan I worked from. I had to modified the scan since it had arms and legs in an awkward pose. I removed the limbs and bridges the holes left by the removal. The sculpting was done in zbrush but everything else was in blender. I did do some minor tweaks in blender at the end though. ---

Im not 100 percent sure on the landmarks since its sort of hard to find good info on the landmarks. ---
