Hi folks,
Appologies for not replying individualy,crazy busy right now !!! Just a quick post to show the detailing a bit better. The previous comp was crappy low-res and his hat and specs blocked the view. Nothing new added to this but still needs lots of tidying up (when I have a moment)
Thanks for the comments - Always helpfull !

get you and your being all busy !!
nice update though…
Hey all,
Happy new year ! Been a while since I was here, and I was bored stupid, so I did a quick head sculpt for giggles ! Nothing very original but the practice is always usefull !

Super sick stuff man. This makes me wanna go sculpt. How do you achieve a skin texture like that in such a short time? Are you using alphas or just hand sculpting it? Keep up the inspiring work and thanks for sharing.
Hi Brian,
Long time no speak !
Thanks for the feedback ! I just keep the block out very square and blocky around subdiv 3 until I’m ready for secondary forms, then I wack it up to around six , smooth the hell out of it and start slapping very blurred alphas on. Following that I’ll go in and smooth out some of the fleshier area’s. Then just mask the recess’s and use the inflate tool to pop the wrinkles and forms, followed by an overall smoothing.
Hope this helps !

Oh, and I broke it up by turning symetry on and off and used the wavy line alpha (forgot which number it is) in the default menu to rake in some scratchy organic lines !

Hey All
Had a few spare moments today so I refined this guy a little and threw some paint on him quickly. The ears would need some work if I was going to finish it but, as usual I probably won’t - just practice realy ! C+c’s welcome as usual!
