hi guys !
I ran out of time for the “journey begins”, caused some bad problems in my life.
this is a new project about the main theme of the Journey. I decided to continue a work that I started when I bagan to learn ZBrush.
this time I will use as it should be, Dante Alighieri who was the real protagonist of his journey.
hope you like it.
This just look so real!!!
that’s top row for sure.
Is it hand painted textures or phototobased(?)?
Outstanding.
Keron.
By the way…could you please stop kicking my a** like that,…,it hurts!
looks amazing. same question as keron 
¿?
Excellent work! Sculpting and texturing are superb 
Man, that’s some skin you got there, absolutely convincing! What is the scene gonna be like? Fire and Brimstone? A deserted forest? Never finished the book, when he gets to heaven thing become to religious and sweet for me…

wow. the work on this forum just seems to get better & better.
superb. also very intersted to know how you pulled the skin off so well.
Brilliant job
Woa!

these are the steps I did, I hope you like it
my darling, all i can correct you on is your english by now…KEEP AT IT, you are THE BEST! you should be proud of yourself 
yours is the best support baby
uploading the hat…
(hat in progress)
Nice texture indeed. Love the wrinkles on his neck/throat.
Great work!
Very cool. Your best head so far. But the hat needs more work @ textures/model.
And can it be that he squints ? The left eye looks to the camera and the right over the camera.
Woot! Finally got a chance to vote for this work…
Marco, my friend, you have created a living, breathing, work of fine art! Awsome sculpting and an impressive array of detail work on the skin. His nose feels fleshy and the pore work is SOOO detailed. His eyes are working really well too…
The colors are just like a classical painting. You do Dante justice indeed…
Watching you hone your craft, piece by piece is a joy for me. I’m proud of you, lil brother…
Top Row, bigtime…
Dickie
Buon fatto! Keep going 5*
Fantastic work!
