A man with no jaw (WIP)

I’m new to completely modeling a character in zBrush. also getting use to using masks. But this is what i’ve done for today.

He is humanoid, but mutated. I am trying to show agony. Yet show him as a survivor.

Tips and comments are apprectiated.

Thank you!

It’s looking good. Certainly agonizing. The only thing I’m wondering about is if the area where the jaw would go shuld be so deep and extend so far. I think both Darth Malak and Vader were sans-jaw, you might want to take a gander at them if you can find any pictures without the armor on the face.

I looked up Darth Malak, it’s a similar case, but in my case his jaw was never there. Where Malak’s jaw looks as if it was ripped of in a tragic accident.

Anyhow, the inside of the throat area i am planning to have some kind of tubing, as if i cut the throat in half and then it got all wrinkly and infected.

Sans means without. Before you get carried away with detail, dial back the sub d level and bring out some of that structure more! Your unto something, but make sure its clearly defined, and have tons of reference.

yeah, i got a lot of work to do on this. I don’t really want it to have human anatomy thogh, but i don’t want it to look imposible and unreasonable. :rolleyes:

Its a humanoid figure though, so your going ot have to do some. Doesn’t have to be extreme though, but still do some research on it. It will pay off big time. Also you might want to work on proportions too, not sure yet since its rather early.

i changed some of the muscle form and played around with proportions. still haven’t touched the hands. the main challenge is the point where the neck becvomes the mouth cavity.

nice one its looking much better

what i’ve noticed is that the geometry on the head is very dense, yet the geometry on the chest is weak. is there a way i can tweak that?
