The Big Lebowski - Walter Sobchak

The Big Lebowski is one of my all time favorite movies, and apparently a few other people in here like the movie as well.

nerveink - Thanks, there are some wrinkles and stuff on the neck, but i could probably pull them out a bit more. Thanks for the suggestion!

Disco Stu - thanks, glad to finally post something here. I’ll post more soon. Great name by the way.

Giantsun - Thanks, i think it’d be sweet to have the Dude and Donny too, but the Jesus might be next.

Patton - Thanks! Goodman did such a good job as Walter, that it makes up for the flinstones.

Flack - Hey man, i finally posted something in here. Thanks for the crits along the way.

Lemonnado - Thanks! “You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don’t wanna know about it, believe me.”

Wirebird - Thanks man - see wires below.

Ls3D - I’m working on maps now. I’d like to get it into MR so i can do some more renders.

gabreilcassata, DAnconia,Wozrush, Webhead, Armyoflee, 3dommi, arran, Lucky_1, d4me, - Thank you all!

XxDarkMessiahxX - Thanks! I don’t think i’ll do a full body, only because i’ve got other characters i want to get to, but some accessories, like a bag of undies or a zip-lock with homework in it might turn up.

This looks awesome, it’s one of my favorite peices posted on this site in a long time. The nose however is seriously #@%@'ed up. It looks exactly like him despite this but it sticks out once you notice it. Great job man.

I did some poly painting textures and renders with mental ray, thought i’d share them with you all.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I’m glad you dig him.

abone114 - I didn’t notice the eyes the whole time i was in zbrush, then when i started doing renders i knew something was off but couldn’t put my finger on it. You’re absolutely right that the eyes are too large. Jon’s are much smaller.

Hasnz - Yes, the hair and beard are just normal maps from the original mesh. I played with the specular maps a bit to seperate them from the rest of the flesh of the head.

I played with my render settings a bit, because it was bothering me that the reflections in the glasses weren’t showing up. Turns out all i had to do was swap the HDRI maps and VOILA reflections!

Here’s the updated image
