Pete's Thread ( Aiming - Character Artist )

Yankov · May 2013

Hi guys, my name is Petar Yankov.
I'm currently taking a 3D Animation degree at University of Hertfordshire, UK. Passionate in character creation, new to Zbrush and tired of Mudbox

You can check out my work at my website: http://www.petaryankov.co.uk

Here is some of my first time try on male anatomy study:

And a more recent female torso anatomy study :

Here is my most recent work that I did yesterday, C&C would be much appreciated

P.s. It will be just a bust.

Thanks

Your body work is good, but the head and the neck on the third image needs some work. The neck is proportionally too long for the torso and the eyeballs are bleeding into the lower eyelids. It's very good for first attempts though.

Agree with Doug, also I think you can make her shoulder wider, they end just over the armpit. Look at some reference for the bonestructure of the shoulder as well as how all the muscles fold into and under the deltoid (Which also looks like it is too long)

Thanks for the quick replay

I agree with you for the shoulder part and for the eyes, will try and fix that today.
The neck part is long because of the famous neck rings witch I will probably add. But when I have a look at it now, its probably too long. I'm now doing a quick sketch of the ears

Will post some progress later.

Thanks

Quick update.

A bit of an update.

Lots of details are lost but I will bring them back on the next render

I'm kinda juggling between three projects and this one I left when I got free time.

Here is a skull study that I've been working on these days. Still things to fix and details to add but overall I'm getting there.

P.S. Still struggling with teeth...

Some progress on the female bust:

Nice anatomy on the body parts but the lips could transition better into the jaw and the neck is ridiculous thick and tall on the woman. The eyes bug me a little since theres very little indication of upper eyelid there. You could probably add a more pleasant angle to her jaw/chin as well. Do you have a reference?

Yankov · Jun 2013

Thanks for the crit

I fixed some of the problems and I like it like that, it was suppose to be more of an art thing rather than realistic. I'm starting a facial anatomy study so here is the final render of this, really proud of my work since Zbrush was really unknown to me hehe

P.S. I did not use any particular reference for that bust, only a couple of images on google

Here is a WIP of a recent study of mine, still lots of muscles are waiting to be add.

And here is today's work that I've done. It is a sculpture reconstruction of "Doryphoros" by Polykleitos. Still lots of things to fix there before starting the details. Hope you like it
