Male head study

Sevv

My latest work. Getting very excited by whats going to be possible on next gen hardware. This is my target for what I would love to be working on with such consoles. Its a game res mesh with hand painted textures rendered in 3DSMax. The skin has a displacement map, skin shader, whilst the other parts have a normal map. The eye brows / hair etc are alpha planes... I wanted to keep it very much in game res/polycount methods. A simple shirt to finish the shot.

Hope you like it

love it

Really great work. What did you do to get the skin so subtly translucent? Or is that just really good texturing?

ceebee

ysalex he says it's rendered and it's using a skin shader, it's all still game resolution

Sevv you should try to get it into Marmoset and see how it looks real time with displacement, got some pretty nice sculpting going on there.

Wow, I really dont know how you get that great of a result with the hair planes
*go back to work on heirs*

Amazing!

Thanks guys glad you like it. Texturing was a focus for this little study but the shader does do a lot. From what I have seen shaders like this are the closest thing I have access too that seems to match what next gen engines will be capable off.

Great work with the hair! And everything else as well of course!

I would love to see the diffuse. Looks like a beautiful hand painted texture.
I'm particularly in awe of how natural the hair looks at the back of his head! Stunning.
