Interesting thread
btw, Julian_K, it wasn’t too boring

Bas Mazur - Thanks very much!

[Julian_K]

I might be wrong, but it seems the eyes are missing the extra bulge on top/around the iris. got a side or 45 view?

[Capital_G]

Here is some progress on the eye area, I’m still pushing the proportions around and trying to work out some bits.
All comments and critiques are welcome.

All the best

This head started out as a quick sketch from a sphere that I kept working on, far longer than I had intended, I will work on it a little bit more as its looking quite strange to my eye but Its hard to pinpoint everything that’s wrong with it.

I have recorded the entire process and will upload a video if anyone is interested?

A little bit more work on the previous sculpt, all created in Zbrush with some tweaks in Potatoshop.

I can upload a time lapse if anyone is interested?

Good stuff so far

with the head above: I don’t exactly know what style you were going for, but if you were trying to do a realistic head your proportions are slightly off. I posted a something that you could perhaps push towards, but if it was simply a stylized head then disregard this.

I guess is Matt Damon. Am I right?

[Capital_G]

robertofernandezxy - Haha, your are right! its good to know that I’m on the right track.

I have been working a bit more on this study, I must admit I’m finding it very difficult to get the likeness right, all the reference photos are from different cameras and change the proportions slightly, but I will push on and try to get it as close as possible.

It is very difucult on the beggining, but keep going man, it’s getting better.
I would flatten more, the temporal part of his cranium. and work the eyes a little more maybe…

Hope you don’t mind me posting but I hope this helps you.
Definitely not him still but closer and yeah the depth of the neck and brow need to really be softened.

There’s some likeness but I know that it is going to be hard to get the likeness right because Matt just has so “generic” face. Those Shwarzeneggers and Stallones are much more easier that way because they have so much more “personality” in their face features, so you only need to get it almost right and everybody instantly knows who the model is supposed to be.

I really can’t say anything else than that you chose a very difficult subject

[minastris]
