I am too if I can make the time…I am hoping to because I live ZBPainting and postwork. =)

Mahlikus, may I enter the Sarge character I was working on? I want to make a uniform shirt and straps for his helmet. I’ll just make sure my gallery entry gets in 2 days before monday to make up for the 2 days I worked on him before Monday…

This is my alternate (work) account…LOL

Though I post the challenges, it is really not my position to say yes or no so do as you wish. It is just said to start fresh so people do not post old and already finished work. Its as I said though, its up to you more then it is to me. =)

i m definetly going to have to get in on this one!

Still need some feature, structure, and hair tweeks but here is a caricature of…who? I’ll give you a hint…there is a big reason why this guys looks funny…

As for specs, a few hours work, 1.5 million polys, and made from a good ol’ ZSphere.
I’ll show references later.

Fantastic piece of work MTB!! :+1: :+1: :+1:

I love the hair, musta taken some time, but seems well worth the effort.

up close he looks familiar but a name eludes me…from a distance it looks like a young Buddy Epsen, the original tinman, beverly hillbilly hahahaa…but I am nuts so…eh :roll_eyes:

Really really great job… :grimacing: :grimacing: top shelf material I’m thinkin! and wonderful use of gi lights and mats!!

Looks like Ryan Stiles to me, but what do I know…LOL…Anyway a VERY impressive modeling job. The hair is amazing…

Dickie

RIGHT ON THE NOSE DICKIE!! He looks Funny because he is wicked funny!!..lol
Bravo…and thanks for the comments too.

Mahlikus,

It looks more like Alan Alda to me, aka Hawkeye Pierce. I didn’t recognize the name Ryan Stiles, but a quick google and yup I know him from “whose line is it anyway”, but I still think you more closely captured Hawkeye, so give him a martini!
:slight_smile:

Yeah he does lovecrafty though I would need to flatten his hair and round out the skull for him I think. I think I made Ryan’s head too long. Its a first draft anyway so its cool. I will work on him tomorrow. Must get sleep.

well im sure somebody in the world looks like this hehe.

Ryan Stiles, I knew it…Damn fine modeling job, Bro! My only 2 crits are 1. ya gotta model
his Adam’s apple as it accentuates how long his neck is and 2. his ears are a lot like jug handles, very distinctive as they stick out a lot and look like little C’s glued to the side of his head. The trouble with modding his ears at this point is it might screw up the meticulously modeled hair. So take my crits with a grain of salt, as my wife and I guessed
it was him in 10 seconds…Great Job so far…

Dickie

MTB,
That’s awesome!

Dr.,
A perfect likeness of my second grade teacher. Oh, the pain…

To M.T.B. can you share the zscript of this head model?
Please no words just zscriptÂĄ
Thanks in advance
EMax

Excellent work MTB! Great job on hair!
:+1:

DrJJ,
That head reminds me (well with the exception of the ring in the nose) of an old 40’s and 50’s American football player! Maybe even one of the first incarnations of the old Rockem and sockem robots.

like the texturing and shader on him.

Very Nice MTB!

:+1:

Great model MTB! the only thing that threw me off is the hair but other than that it looks like Ryan. that is really weird, because i was actually thinking of doing Ryan Stiles for the challenge, but i am going to come up will some one else. that guy is so hilarious on “Whose Line is it Anyways”. gotta love that show! i woud love to see a zscript of some of the early stages.
