Man these are great! I used to watch a lot of Jet Li back in the day-- Once Upon a Time in China, etc and these characters fit that theme perfectly!

Thank you @orvb ! I am slowly working on a wuxia story taking place in the Qing dynasty and these are some of the characters. I am a fan of Jet Li movies and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon as you can tell hehe.

Here’s for you!

Wow you have a keen eye! The face is indeed a mix of Vincent Zhao and Andy Lau. Makes for a very handsome kungfu master I’d say :grin:

Ahh now that you mention it, I see the resemblance with Andy Lau! This is giving me nostalgia and I wish I still had my old VHS tapes / dvds so I can rewatch all those old movies while I learn how to sculpt haha.

Anyway, love your work and I’m looking forward to your updates! Cheers!

Thanks @Vonzaku

I love looking at other sketchbooks to inspire me!

Finally a somewhat decent clothing sim. Used the Garment Tool addon.

Can’t sculpt nudes forever, right? :sweat_smile:

Garment Tool addon is great. Getting closer to what I pictured in my head.

Moderately complex folds are now achievable. I could always sculpt in smaller folds if I feel like it.
