"Bloodsport" Jean-Claude Van Damme fan art likeness

ZBrush Artworks
#1

It is a fan art project, based on the 1988 American martial arts film “Bloodsport” starring Jean-Claude Van Damme.
It started as a head likeness but i ended up sculpting the whole body as well as creating the set (not very detailed but enough to show as background for my shots).
The whole project took about 3 years to complete and 3 months to render on a Z800HP with dual 5650Xeon and 24G RAM.
I wish i could render it with a bit higher settings to avoid some noise and anti-aliasing issues but my hardware is old so i would have to render forever smiley .
It has been a very demanding project, and i learned a ton of stuff through the whole process.
I will soon post a “Making Of” with images from start to finish, timelapse videos and info.
I hope you enjoy watching this artwork as much as i did while creating it.
Thank you very much!

Awesome job on this. That takes some stamina to take 3 years on a single project. Can you give some info on the render engine used, and shaders?

Well Done.

I had the pleasure of following part of your production on FaceBook.
But I did not know that you had already invested so much time in the project.
And surely paid himself.
Keeping your breath on such a long project shouldn’t be easy at all.
Clearly you have taken your time not to miss any details.
I spent some time with my friends watching this work, we watched the video a few times, and were impressed and very motivated by it.
Fantastic work.
It’s amazing to see something like that, and it reminds us that it’s all about the journey.

Congratulations.
