Sculpting character in ZBRUSH (WIP)

Tyler Durden · Oct 2017

A long time ago I noted to myself one extremely talented concept artist - Milan Nikolic. I had few days free so I try to start to sketch his character in Zbrush to increase own skills.
To be continued;)

UPDATED: I decided to show here a process of a creation. So if you scroll down you will find a progress, every 3 hours.

Coming along great!
Brendon Isaiah Bengtson was doing this on stream with Milan, and Milan concepted the back for that.
So I'm sure you can find more pictures or some of what Milan was thinking about it if you have a look at that.

This is looking really well though! Keep up the good work!

Wooow! I don't know about it! Nice work. I hope this will not get worse than Brandon did

Milan did an amazing work. On the other hand, I'm not surprised that this artwork inspired somebody else.

Thank you for the information!

As I said before, there is an update. The color is only for helping me to get a similarity from the original. it will be completely redone.

The only "critics" I can make for now I think is that, in the concept, it looks more like a monster because he's not base on real human proportions rules. If you look a the head for exemple, it's really huge compared to the chest but this can be also your interpretation of the concept

Otherwise really awesome work man! Keep it up, I look forward to see the result

Thank you, Jeremy! Good critics about the head, I'll take it into consideration. I think you're right, I missed the original traits. Perhaps he should look weaker in the shoulders area. Then head can be smaller.
