ZBrushCentral

Edward Norton's head - first post on ZBrushCentral!

hey guys! i hope this is the standard channel to post finished works and WIPs since this is my FIRST POST EVER on zbrushcentral! OUUH! super sweet!

so yeah im new with Zbrush… actually ive discovered 3d arts when i joined the Ubisoft campus in June 2009. since then i went crazy in 3ds max and later in Zbrush and came to the realization it’s pretty much my passion! :slight_smile:

i did some small works and 2 character models that i won’t show because either there are just drafts or because they are in the uninteresting T-pose.

but here in attachment is something im relatively proud of! i’ve tried modeling Edward Norton’s head from American History X and even though it’s not 100% perfect, most people recognized him so im pretty happy! some part might feel low on resolution too, but i felt i didnt need to detail those parts as much as the others (hairs, ears…)

it’s the only temporary way i’ve found to upload video but for what it’s worth, here’s a link to the turntable too: http://shocksplash.deviantart.com/art/Edward-Norton-s-Turntable-157604884

i hope im allowed to do that kind of publicity but you can check my deviantart profile if you want to see 2 lowrez/mediumrez characters i retopologized and rendered in 3ds max from the zbrush models i was talking about earlier!

by the way is it possible to post turntables in avi format on zbrushcentral? that way i wont have to post link of external sites…

any comments/critiques are welcome! thanks!

Great work man, congratulations!!!

Of course you can be proud of this character!
Realy good job, keep going to define more some elements like hears.
I will check our deviant :wink:

I’ve recognized him. This is my favourite actor :+1: I think his chin should be a bit narrower. But it is great!

thanks all!

Great sculpt, saw it was him straight away. Look forward to seeing some fine detailing and textures! That and some assymetry…will be awesome

great work!

pretty awesome man, definitely looks like edward. Im actually working on Victoria Beckham…haha.

nice sculpt, 1 of my fav actor :smiley:
he looks like bale in the last pic lol

i’ve just edited the link at the top thread but anyway here’s a link to the turntable i’ve just added to deviantart! http://shocksplash.deviantart.com/art/Edward-Norton-s-Turntable-157604884
the quality is so-so and there is a green frame before looping but it’s better than nothing!

i totally agree he kinda looks like bale in the last one! maybe because of the angle… or maybe the chin thing cyril_but was talking about! hehehe :wink:

Demilich, i beg you to sculpt victoria before the implants :wink:

thanks again for the other comments! it’s great to be able to have comments from talented people! sounds corny but still honest…

Very good likeness! Nice model!

Hey there!

I made some modifications to mister Norton: changed the morphology of the head (skull, forhead, chin, cheeks), went a level of detail higher and added some subtle skin texture, sharpened the hair, and played for the first time with the zbrush renderer instead of taking simple screen shots! :stuck_out_tongue:

I think it’s a fairly good improvement from last one so I decided to post it! Next sculpture, my goal will be to make sharper and deeper skin details.

There’s an updated on the turntable as well: http://shocksplash.deviantart.com/art/Highpoly-Face-Turntable-157604884

It’s freaking perfect. Exact likeness. Well done! :+1: :+1:

Good work! You catch the likeness.

thanks all!

Is there a way I can download this somewhere? It looks awesome!! Im having a hard time making this myself.
