Ben Sherman Southland WIP

hey everyone, I’ve been working the past week or so on a character from “Southland” (TNT Show) Officer Ben Sherman, played by Ben McKenzie. Heres my go at his likeness, hopefully it’s close. Still WIP so I would love any comments suggestion and critiques on my progress. Thanks

pretty good i like the face

the hair are very good for me how did you do that? i telle you this because hairs are my fear in 3d >-<

can you post other screen ?

Thanks, I’m glad you’re linking it :slight_smile: The hair just takes some patience, once you know how it’s not bad. The way I did it is I used a zsphere to start then standard and move brushes to get the general shape. For the front I used Standard and Damien Standard brushes to get the volume and rake for texture to get the strands, to spike it I used the snake hook brush with alpha 8 (or some other noisy map). For the rest of it I used clay tubes and rake. Good luck, here’s some more screenshots for you.

Right now I’ just planning to transpose him, but I am considering making a game mesh as well not too sure yet though. Hopefully I can get some more work done on him soon, please come check it out when I do and let me know what you think.
