Hi everyone!
I tried to play a little with the proportions of this african woman.
It’s sculpted in Zbrush and rendered in Modo.
Hope you like it!

Wow! I absolutely love it! You captured her perfectly! She’s maybe a weee bit to reflective. But the expression and style are awesome. 5 from me :smiley:

She’s a beautifully sculpted and rendered piece.

I’d love to see more people post pieces similar to this (exploring different cultures).

My only criticism with her is that while you’ve greatly exaggerated the size of her neck, ankles and waist, her head, arms and legs seem rather normal in comparison.

This has given her an interesting almost surreal look to me, but I’m curious why you didn’t exaggerate all her proportions evenly?

Really cool piece ! I think that the gloss should be little smaller on the skin,its too bright right now. :+1:

#16

sooooooooo good. loving it

#17

Very cool work,
only critic I have is the absense of a ribcage (that gives more stability in her chest area).

Thanks

I like the face and theme. Stylistically, I don’t think the face and body match.
Very normal proportions in the head and very exaggerated body. Nice quality execution.

Thank you all very much for your kind words!!

brettSinclair -Thank you, Good point there, maybe she is a bit too reflective in some places.

nellement, Lucky_1 -good points there both of you, I will try to fix it when I have time.

EricArtman, AvTPro -thank you. About the proportions- My idea was to make a beautiful african woman with a bigger waist. I wanted her to look kind of normal, but with a twist. I didnt want to make just a funny caricature, with all the bodyparts exaggerated. It´s an attempt to make her more mystic and unusual.

Awesome, simply awesome. Would love to see her animated and walking down a path keeping that jug on her head with ease.

The only crit, and I hate to have to even say anything about it, is that her back muscles…namely her right deltoid, seems awkward, like the muscle immediately turns into the scapula.

Very minor I know, but it caught my eye.

Love it though, If this isn’t top row I would be shocked, and a little disappointed.
