@voodoodad - Thanks my dear friend, glad you like it LOL

@kokoro - Thank you so much for the great constructive feedback, really appreciated it, that you are taking your time posting on my thread with this amount of details. Glad you are liking him a little, I will definently rework the pores on the forehead and subtle down the overall layer of the skin pores. You are right aswell on the mouth area, did not look very realistic! It's really great hearing feedback from you, because I always learn from it to look more often on my details and take more time to refine the model. Thanks kokoro

@JasonJbotBasse - Thanks buddy glad you are liking the expression! Means a lot to me. Yeah the inner of the ears

Constructive criticism is always very welcomed

@magbhitu - Thanks for the stop by and taking your time! Glad you are liking it and you are right, I had the pores on a different and will definently reduce the intensity of it. Aww I made a big mistake with the wrinkles on his forehead, used a crosshatch alpha with colorspray

that's crazy but thanks for telling

@ViktorHD - Thanks man really nice that you enjoy him

@beholder - Thx for the stopby mate and commenting on my thread, haha well I didn't use Mr.Roosevelt as a reference

@SpiritDreamer - Thank you Glenn buddy, great seeing you in my sketchbook! I really did'nt take Mr.Roosevelt as my reference, but thanks for giving me a great reference, I can definently see his skin detail and when I compare it to my sculpt I am totally off, thanks for telling and showing! Really means a lot to me getting such great concstructive feedback and advices, I will definently rework on the following problems which were mentioned! Thanks for letting me know

@FairCat - Thanks FairCat my dear friend for the great support, really glad you like it

@potakli - Wow cool thanks for taking your time posting in my sketchbook, highly appreciated

@davidness - Thanks a bunch man, really glad to hear that. I am really trying my best to study as most as possible

@Voivode - Thanks for checking out my sketchbook mate, really glad you like the expression and render, means a lot to me!

@tomfogo - Thanks Tom buddy for the stop boy and for your kind feedback! Really means a lot to me really!

@maqroll - Great hearing from you and thanks for taking your time and for your great feedback. You are so right, I should've devinently blur the hair are more, as the look a little stiff! Thanks for telling man!

@muchlove106 - Hihi hey whats up mate^^, You are way too kind, for sure man let's do some sculpting sessions man!

It really is a honor for me hearing such kind words, I really appreciate that and you all give me even more motivation.

Here is third WIP of my Hindu Priest of the Apocalypse and here is a quick shot of what I've got about a week ago and could post a final image aswell, but thought I get some advices from you all and feedback to it before I do, so maybe I can make a final change still a little time left. that would be great and highly appreciated

had some problems, I overwrited a file after dynameshing all and now I have a body with 6million polys and its hard to resculpt the bad antomy, not really digging his body proportions but I think I'll leave him like that. Tried to duplicate it, tried to dynamesh again and project on a lower version model..well that didn't go that right. One question to you all, could anyone recommened or knows any advice on sculpting waves made of rock, for example there is a statue of Zeus with underneath him Water and Waves, hope you all know what I mean^^
All the best to you all and happy sculpting!

**Jason jbot Basse** · 04-21-12

looks cool! The proportions, head and torso look good. The arms are foreshortened so its hard to say... They look fine in your composition. The oblique muscles and the abdominal muscles look sort of rumpled and I think need to be defined.

Im a zspheres guy not really using the dynamesh for the exact reason you describe, way too many polys in the beginning. So the only thing I would suggest is retopo and re-project. Sounds like you tried that though? No idea why that wouldn't work unfortunately. Anyway good start, the skulls look cool on the neck too!

**Voivode** · 04-21-12

Thank you for the kind words, your work has definitely inspired me to delve deeper into Zbrush, I will try to post more work soon!
