Portrait Of Obama

this is so good it should be illegal… now you can fake presidential speeches and orders

I wonder what u’r gonna do with this model??? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Anyway, it’s a really top quality work, truely awesome :+1: :+1: :+1:
My only crit is only the ears part, somehow, it still like a plastic or wax, but the face is incredible…:+1: :+1: :+1:
My God, I wish I could do somethin like this…

Excellent job! How long did this take you?

Amazing work!

I could tell right away from the thumbnail who it was on the top row (deserved btw).

Especially with those latest renders, it just keeps looking more and more like a photograph. I was going to say like others that the eyes seemed a little off, although they’re looking quite a bit better anyways in that last update.

I think this is a good question - from beginning to now how many hours do you think you’ve spent on this? Did you only use the time cover for reference or what else did you look at to get down the likeness so much?

It is incredible the amount of detail that is packed in there. I love the hair - looking and seeing all those fine little stands with varying flecks of grey and black…

Great Job!

so sorry for my lack of posts.because i’m so busy these days.
and sorry for that i cant reply every commets from you.
Liam H:i have forgot how many hours i spend on it,but the whole process was a long time.maybe two month:),andbefore this work ,i had rendered another version,and that was not a good result for me .so i reworked again.you can check it here:

the modle just only one part of the work ,of cause the most important part,but for me i spend the most time to test the skin shader and the hair,because that is very hard work for me.
madmatt:you have a good question,but i cant awser that ,beacause i just use the hair and fur from 3Ds max for creating the hair .
montyband :yes ,i’ll post these textures tonight1.jpg

Thanks it was alot of help

nice work:D

very nice potrait great job:+1:

WOW ! :+1: :+1: :+1:

a very good job so cool

Amazing job! How did you make the hair so realistic? You can see each fiber and the way the color is varied makes it extremely convincing!

Great Work!! Man that’s incredible!!! :+1: :+1:

oh wow yeah I could see these being helpful at some point in the future. Thanks! I love seeing that kind of behind-the-scenes work.

Also, love the older one with the matrix-esque sunglasses - that’s one cool Obama :sunglasses:

This is certainly the best likeness I’ve ever seen. Your render is amazing. Thanks for sharing some of your texture work as well.

I would also be interested in what kind of lighting setup you used with mental ray?..it is such an all encompassing way to render that its hard to know where to start, any help in pointing me in a good direction would be much appreciated.

the hand looks really fake ;/
