[WIP] Learning zbrush and sculpting

mandragorasprouts · Dec 2020

Hello , I've been learning sculpting in blender and zbrush since September 2020.
In this thread I'll be mostly posting my daily sculpts and maybe some texture work as well, so I'll be able to track my progress.
Of course any feedback and critique will be greatly appreciated.

Today's quick sculpt:

Some good, some bad, nothing worth polishing yet. Keep drilling down on those proportions, character appeal, I'd suggest finding some good ref for the ear (check out the sculpting tutorials for free on flipped normals on youtube, those guys really know their stuff). Keep going.

Its better then your previous attempts but proportion look off like eye placement nose length so on

simplify ear as a orange piece then you have to dig a few holes and you done

jaw looks shaky I suggest to check skull from below to learn the shape

I see plenty of forms in the middle but no in the forehead and why is there no other views side been the most important

Thx for critique, that' really useful. I was using different references and I got confused. I should also use some kind of guidelines for proportions, my observation skills not good enough yet.

I suggest to make a few skull studies to better understand shape/forms of cranium cheeks and jaw ear studies wont hurt either
