A guide for sculpting faces - a likeness/day stream - day 5

Work In Progress / 08 October 2020

Not long ago I've released A Guide for Sculpting Faces https://nimlot.artstation.com/store/WXNJ/a-guide-for-sculpting-faces   and decided to take some time during the streams to make a few more likenesses with the base mesh I've made for the tutorial. 

The whole point was to see how far I can take a likeness in 5-6 hours. 

In this fifth video I went for Rosario Dawson. 

The actual sculpting starts at about 2hours and 22 min into the video. 

As usual the whole thing was streamed on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/nimlot26

Here's the 5th day video:


A guide for sculpting faces - a likeness/day stream - day 4

Work In Progress / 07 October 2020

Not long ago I've released A Guide for Sculpting Faces https://nimlot.artstation.com/store/WXNJ/a-guide-for-sculpting-faces and decided to take some time during the streams to make a few more likenesses with the base mesh I've made for the tutorial.

The whole point was to see how far I can take a likeness in 5-6 hours. 

In this fourth video I went for Nathan Fillion. As in the previous videos I took the first hour to refine the previous day's sculpt. 

The Nathan sculpting starts at about 2 hours and 54 minutes into the video.

A guide for sculpting faces - a likeness/day stream - day 3

Work In Progress / 06 October 2020

Not long ago I've released A Guide for Sculpting Faces  https://nimlot.artstation.com/store/WXNJ/a-guide-for-sculpting-faces  and decided to take some time during the streams to make a few more likenesses with the base mesh I've made for the tutorial. 

The whole point was to see how far I can take a likeness in 5-6 hours. In this third video I went for Rachel McAdams. 

The actual sculpting starts at about 1 hour and 24 min into the video. 

I kinda failed this likeness and it was definitely in a worst place than Morena and Steve after the 4-5 hours mark but in general the female faces are much more difficult to nail down, especially if there's no big landmarks on the face to guide the likeness. I guess a day or two more on it would do the trick.

A guide for sculpting faces - a likeness/day stream - day 2

Work In Progress / 05 October 2020

Not long ago I've released A Guide for Sculpting Faces https://nimlot.artstation.com/store/WXNJ/a-guide-for-sculpting-faces  and decided to take some time during the streams to make a few more likenesses with the basemesh I've made for the tutorial. The whole point was to see how far I can take a likeness in 5-6 hours.

In this second video I went for Steve Buscemi. The first hour or so I've refined the sculpt I did the day before and took Morena's likeness a bit closer to what I wanted since every time you take a break from your model then come back to it you see stuff that is wrong and needs fixing. 

For Steve I've continued from Morena's head and again the actual sculpt of Steve starts around 2 hours and 12 minutes into the stream.

D. Pete Hammerhand I - some texturing progress

Work In Progress / 05 January 2019

I've started working on the handpainted textures after finishing up the realistic textures in substance painter. The process is similar to what I did for Billy Three Arrows. You can read more about it here:

Hopefully at the end of the next week I will be done with this one. One or 2 more days for the textures and probably 2-3 days for the hair. 

Cheers!
