Homer J. Simpson

ZBrush Artworks
#1

This is a project im working on. Im trying to create a model of Homer Simpson from the TV Show “The Smpsons”

I worked for about 20 minutes to model part of the head. Its no finished yet but i slapped a default material and some colour onto it. Heres what i have so far.
I still need to smooth out some wrinkles around his nose and neck.

(no eyes yet)

That’s Homer if he were real–good likeness and a cool start!! :+1: :+1:

#3

very good likeness I second the motion…I recognized him immediately on the thumbnail…keep us posted on his development :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

#4

Really good start! Can’t wait to see an update!

#5

Yep! that looks like him alright. Good job!

I will be watching for the update…

A little wider head says the guy who has all but 4 or 5 episodes on BETA tape format… :smiley:

Great start!!

an awesome homer!!! :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:

#11

Thanks for all the replies.
Im testing out some material on him. Im not sure if I want him to be cartoony or 3D.

Heres a test with some material and i added some eyes. I need to get the eyes positioned better.

I also slightly widened his head. It look better now?
I think that once i get his head just right, the rest of his body will fall into ZPlace
(by the way: anyone have any tips for making a collar on a shirt? his folds over kind like this |_//_| and im not sure how to do that.)

#12

When I needed to do a collar for my Tail 'Gator image, I used a cube which I had flattened in the ZAxis in the deform pallette. I then tapered it and then did a smooth bend on it. I then did a little more editing using transform mode. Voila! A pointed collar.

I hope this description of my process for that was clear.

Your Homer is great. :+1: I personally like it with the cartoon edges like you have here.

#13

very nice update…and he is looking extremely Homerish :smiley: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: and didnt he have like two or three hair strands across the top? couldnt remember…hmmmmm still looks good though

#14

Yah. He has 2 hair strands on the top and zig-zags along the side of his head. I havent added them in yet.
:smiley:

THanks for the tips WO. Ill try them out later :slight_smile:

#18

Perfecto!!! I think the head, and the face is on the money…!!! :smiley:

:+1: :+1: :+1: :sunglasses: :+1: :+1: :+1:
And I think the Toon shading effect is very appropriate! :wink:

#19

Nice update, this project is coming along quite nicely.

#20

Excellent use of “toonshader”.

I’m a big fan of Homer!
