[WIP] Lady Gaga Likeness

I've always struggled with making hair for my characters, so I wanted to start a new project: a series of Lady Gaga sculptures. The plan is to recreate some of my favorite hairstyles and makeup looks she's worn. The first one is from the music video to 'Marry the Night' which looks like this:



There are still things I plan to add before the final render: a pedestal, the straps of her top, maybe change the lighting setup (?)

More renders:



I would greatly appreciate any feedback or advice on modeling hair cards.

Did some more refining and a final render for this one!







I recorded the whole sculpting process here


I'm planning on reusing the mesh and doing some more hair studies. I might also make a tutorial video with my hair card process. A lot of it involves the Hair Tool plugin for Blender which I HIGHLY recommend

Made another one! This time based on one of her looks from the Sydney Monster Hall. I've got a few more planned to make, really excited about those!

Number 3! Somebody on a fan forum suggested doing this one from the 'Telephone' music video. I couldn't resist!

Everything made in ZBrush/Blender.
