Gannondorf Bust [Triforce of Power]

Domslice

I received a Zelda art-book for Christmas and have been loving Gannon in the new Smash Bros. so he's my first model going into the new year - First project of 2019!

Reference sheet:


A first taste of the sculpt (Zbrush grabdoc):



It would be lovely if you followed along on this one, with any C&C, nerdyness, or support you can muster.

It might be easier to critique if you provided a different angle aside from straight on.

Yessir, here are a couple more grabs!

I really like it! Makes me wish you did the full body

@Ashervisalis It's totally possible to add more, I'm not sure whether I want this final piece as a real-time asset or pre-rendered. Kinda making it up as I go. 

Here's the latest renders in Keyshot, keeping to the 'marble bust' idea I have in my head.

Quick thing would be to tighten up your folds where they are under alot of tension. Then smooth out folds where the cloth is hanging. Easy way to do that is with Hpolish brush. Hope that helps

Thanks you, and on that note I think I will go ahead and do just that. My ultimate goal is to have something that'd fit nicely in a game pipeline. With that in mind a bust isn't really going to stretch my skills, i.e. for topo and deformation, pixel density etc.

With the above in mind (going real-time) would you still suggest doing the cloth as a "chunk" of geo, or fudge it some other way with cards/another method?
