Sketchbook: LeeMeredith

LeeMeredith

Hello I've been practicing for a year now still a long way to go but enjoying every minute. I decided to stop lurking and make a sketchbook, I would really love some critiques from you guys.

LeeMeredith

Humanoid I wanted a break from practicing humans but still stayed within human anatomy.



Back to practicing human heads,constructive critique welcome.

LeeMeredith

I pulled up and back the face..seemed off.

LeeMeredith

Well after a break trying out animating, I am back to sculpting but I will continue to animate too.



Critique welcome, I followed reference and used some of Ryan Kingleins techniques. I will start again tomorrow until I get the basic shape down and then move onto more detail and building up muscles.

LeeMeredith

My friend gave me very helpful critique and here is the result.

LeeMeredith

Another day another skull.

Yoon

Just wanted to say your humanoid dudes face gave me a good chuckle. Cool creation.

For the skulls I can see you improving each time! Keep it up!
One thing I notices was around the teeth, they bulge the skull a little where they fit inside the jaw and it is not a straight line across but like a bunch of mini arches. See below image for what I mean:



uping the polycount for more definition might help
Keep up the good work!

Hey thanks for posting, I implemented those changes along with a few others, I sort of get what you mean but I didn't understand it fully, hopefully I got it somewhat right and I'll look at more reference tomorrow morning.




Edit: tried following a different reference.

LeeMeredith

My friend suggested I practice the bony landmarks of the skull, so here's the first.

LeeMeredith

Skull forms 2

LeeMeredith

Another bony forms, I think I'm slightly improving after each one.

LeeMeredith

Chimpanzee skull, the teeth could be a lot better, I should have made them as separate subtools and will do so on my next practise.

LeeMeredith

I tried making the teeth as separate subtools but they didn't turn out that great, I need to pay more attention in future sculpts.

LeeMeredith

Tried a head sculpt just to see what I've learned from practicing skulls. I would be really grateful for critique on this but I understand if people are too busy

LeeMeredith

Fun sculpt while still keeping to human proportions, result is a slightly exaggerated man

LeeMeredith

Another head sculpt, not exactly human but still human proportions.

LeeMeredith

After some brilliant advice and a paint over from a friend I have produced this:-




Still some things off, I haven't put any time into learning body anatomy yet because I want to get to a decent level at facial anatomy first.

LeeMeredith

More practice.

My take on a Orrian bug from Guild Wars 2

LeeMeredith

Gary the goblin, fun sculpt.

LeeMeredith

I've been chugging away at head sculpts, not posted them all on here but I recieved a lot of critique here's my latest.

LeeMeredith

Been a while since I've updated this thread, I've been getting used to University and my modules have mainly been doing hard surface/animation and scripting.

Here's a sculpt I did today-
