Hello,

Since I used Zbrush from start to model statue, so I’m gonna post in here .

The orthograph picture in zbrush:
[attach=33740]Davidrotate1.jpg[/attach]

and here are the test renders to make sure I get the correct perspective dissortion (lower res mesh to fast thing up):

The mesh polycount is 750k in zbrush, but somehow it translates into 1.5mil in 3dmax

The model was started from the head and then I used edge loop to expand the mesh. I had to do that because I wasnt going to make full body at first

proggress pic:

maybe I’m gonna texture it a bit before I’m done with it

Hope you like it

just great:+1:

Gorgeous David copy! I only think, that his left leg is a bit bended too much. Anyway it’s great work.

#4

your work flow is totally crazy !! Had to be hard adding geometry to a high poly model :stuck_out_tongue: 5 stars :]

#5

I think the only thing that gives it away is the hair. Other than that, it’s pretty difficult to distinguish it from a photograph!

#6

Great modeling.
:+1: :+1: :+1:

#7

insane

#8

Absolutely outstanding work.

Five stars from me.

Classical modeling indeed :cool:

#10

"to call it great"would be an understatement !..but your base(head) looks so detailed as your steps in the edge-loops expansion ? did you use ZBrush in-between steps ?

No words worthy of this… :+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:small_orange_diamond:+1:

This is fantastic , very close to the original. I feel mat finish will look better.

#14

hello,

thank you for the complements, I really appreciated it :slight_smile:

Abyssis - hehe, your the one from cgtalk right? thx :slight_smile:

slocik - well, I did the edge loops on the lower lv mesh…it’s not that hard actually, but if you made mistake than your screwed :stuck_out_tongue:

jantim - actually I used the base head from the one I made a while back, started from natalie then keira, jude law then david. Thats why its quite dense, it even have the mouth hole. I used zspheres to make the head

Jason Belec - The hand? I think that wasnt me :stuck_out_tongue:

:slight_smile:

Dear Max,
Congratulations on your unbelievable success.
The mesh is a beauty, it is.

Only I miss how you could make it stating from the head downwards.

Could you describe your edge loop technic, please. Oh where I may read it.

With admiration,
Anatom. :smiley:

Great job. Only criticism would be that your head seems longer than the original (from front to back), and your neck is a little shorter too. Things like the muscles between the top of the arm and the shoulder not being as tight are really nit picking.
Sweet, good study.

I think you used editable mesh in max and you got 1.5 mill triangles. if you convert to editable poly you should get 750000 polys.

#19

Looks awesome. I think his Big-Toe on the left foot is a little bit too big, especially in the perspective renders when compared to the original. Thats the only problem I can really spot right now though. I’ve been meaning to try something like this for a while now, seems like a great practice.

PS. I think the reason it is 750K in Zbrush and 1.5M in Max, is because Zbrush is counting the quads, and Max is counting the triangles.
