Personal project of a head bust study that I finished around late 2023. That turned out to be a full character project a year later.

Insane level of detail, nice job!

What are you rendering in? It looks like you're using only point or directional lights, as the unlit parts are pure black, like under his right eyebrow. I wonder if adding an IBL would help this.

Looks a lot like Wes Studi, was he an inspiration for the face?
