Death Dealer

[nacho_riesco]

Frazetta Death Dealer tribute
Sculpting practice from a mannequin, it was sculpted from one single piece , except horns, axe and base, combining Dynamesh and Sculptris Pro
To achieve clay strokes I used the amazing Pablo Muñoz’s brushes: Digital Clay Pack

Here you can see a quick sculpting timelapse:

Wow, you absolutely nailed it! Awesome work. Can I ask what renderer you used? I really like the patina look you have achieved.

Pixo_Daisuke, thank you! I’d love to have it too!

Inglourious_Hoko, thank you very much! Sure, it was made in Keyshot

You’ve captured the impressionistic aspects of the Frazetta painting wonderfully.

[Morgaine]

Awesome Death Dealer and your KeyShot copper oxide shader is phantastic Nacho

How do you get such great material?

[nacho_riesco]

Thank you! Glad you like it!
This is the Material Graph set up, nothing special, it’s more a matter of light than material itself.

[Morgaine]

That’s great, thank you very much Nacho, I’m working on a similar material right now and your material graph will help me to improve it
