My take on Batman

ZBrush Artworks
#1

I was playing around with my base male head model and came up with this. It’s my take on Batman. I have to smooth and repaint the area where his mask and suit meet his skin. I’m having fun with him, so I’ll post updates as I make them. 121 welcome…

I fixed up the line between his mask and suit and tweaked his lips a little. 100% Z-Brush with a lil Photoshop post-processing for color…

VERY GOOOD MAN!!
funny those huge horns of the mask…

well
Looks great to me …but ill make my crit’s

I think the overall modeling is simply wonderfull but a couple of things let it down

I still think the mask line looks a little rough, maybee you could make the line more defined and try to make it look like more of a mask and not so much a painted overlay
and the other thing i noticed was that (in my opinion) the mask should also cover the nose of the “batman”

Still
Saying that, i doubt i could do better …just thought id mention my observations

Keep it up :wink:

Mr.Micro: Thanks! I’m glad you like the modeling. The last one is my favorite too.

ZZagno: Thank you, though the proportions are quite exaggerated. Especially the cranium. My original version of this guy was called “The Cranium” He was a generic superhero I was playing with. I still might go somewhere with that one. I was playing with helmet design with the move tool and that’s how the bat ears evolved. I liked the batman look and ran with it.

Drums: Thanks, my Brother…:smiley: Always a pleasure to hear from you. Say Hi to Viv…:smiley:

Mario: Whenever I do a character with exaggerated features, I always think of you, Bro…:smiley: Your work is an inspiration to ME, so I say thank you…:+1:

Pinkarman: Yeah, the ears are rather extreme, aren’t they…:laughing: Thanks for the feed back…:+1:

MrPeculiar: (Great name, BTW) Thank you for your crits. I agree about the mask line. It’s actually painted AND modeled and that is presicely the problem. I think that to fix it, I’ll add a “rim” around the mask/face interface, kind of like a lip where it’s rolled up a little. As for the mask covering the nose, I played with this idea, but I liked the nose exposed, visually and functionally. I originally had the ears exposed, but I liked how they looked covered by the mask…

MM: I take that a a compliment, Bro…:smiley: It’s funny, but even 25 years ago, I always drew my characters with big brows and lantern jaws. They just look funny that way and I ended up using them in my 3-D work also…:laughing:

I’m going to go play with the lip idea on the mask now. I post some updates later. Thank you all again for taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it, as it’s good inspiration for me…:+1:
