Hey guys !
I've finally decided to start my own sketchbook.
So here is the first entry: Who Is Spock.
I've started this to exercise my portrait skills with Zbrush, and decided to take it a little bit further.
So I've tried to make a Mr.Spock of our days. He could be a simple astronaut, or Mr Spock himself who came to pay us a visit from the future. You decide .
So... Who is Spock ?

[SolidSnakexxx]

Wow..really nice work...awesome render! At first glance I thought it's a mix between Spock and Jean Luc Picard

[Captain Sensible]

May the force be with you... oh wait

Very nice work! The likeness is superb. Really cool sculpt and render

[doses22]

Amazing, I like very much

[ivar_sn]

Beautiful work...
very nice render

[Nemoid]

Love it !
P.s. you may check a bit specularity map. From the image it seems like hs's sort of sweating, but other than that, outstanding work!

[Moni-Poroni]

Wonderful model, Andrei! Great work on the modeling and the textures.
May I ask which Material you used (the gray one)?

[dhasian]

wow really good.especially the skin rendering !
...i wish you were live in the same area as i do,
so i can bug you everyday and force you to teach me

[undoz]

Sweet work Andrei! That's a very cool take on the original Spock, pretty unique from what I've seen around. The rendering is particularly very well done.
Looking forward to see more works here !

[Husse]

That is soo good!
The texture and render is awesome. I really like the expression on him.

[sarakawa]

that is sick. i love the final render!

[Darukin]

Wow that's a brilliant render!
Well done, sculpt is great too, but man
I gotta brush up my texture and render skills!
5* from me =)

(Lol everyone seems to be opening sketchbooks
lately it's becoming a trend in these last two days)

[T.S.Wittelsbach]

beautiful........
as I never render anything and go straight in to fabrication (I only get as far as a screen cap), i just have to ask.

how much time do you have in a rendering like this.
great stuff

Tomas

[truthhunter]

awesome work

but mr spock is a slender straight nosed guy i think his nose is flared and
the tip need to be flattened a bit

but anyways thats a suggestion

overall its great awesome best

you lived him again buddy

as i always say keep em comin

[andrei.szasz]

Hey Guys !

@ SolidSnakexxx, thanks man, you are right he could be Captain Picard as well. Some times along the process of modeling i thought he was looking a little like Michael Jordan from some angles. L.O.L

@ Captain Sensible, hey ! may the force be with you, too , yeah i love Star Wars , too , Thanks man!

@doses22, Thanks!

@ivar_sn, Thank you!

@Nemoid, thanks ! you could be right, but i liked that sweaty effect.. don't know why.. but i guess it adds something to the skin that makes it more natural. i'd tried some renders without it , and it didn't looked good

@Moni-Poroni, hey Moni ! Thank you! really glad you like it.The material is one i've downloaded from pixologic MatCap Library, and it was done by Nick Zuccarello, and its's called just Gray_nickz, in Zbrush.

@dhasian, Thanks man, maybe we'll be neighbors someday .

@undoz, Hey Andrei , thanks man, I hope more works will come soon.

@Husse, thanks!

@sarakawa, Thank you!

@Darukin, thanks, I guess you are right with the sketchbooks, but i think that's a good think, It seams that more people are starting to work more and mor with the Big Z.

@T.S.Wittelsbach, hey Thomas, Thank you , I'm really glad you like it, your work is extraordinary and it's many times better then a rendered image, cause they get to be real 3d objects, witch is soo coolll. About the render time this one didn't took too long , just about 6-7 minutes with Vray, Just the hair pass slowed it down a bit. I did some tests with mental ray, witch came out to larger amount of render time , but no larger then 10 min.

Here is a bigger Zrender, i'll try to add some more WIP images tomorrow.
