Here it is, my bust of Davy Jones. Still a wip though. This is one of the best villains I have seen in a long time, so I want to get him right. Any tips?

I'm going to suggest that you wait for the DVD release...unless you can find several pictures (are there enough in that Davy Jones appreciation thread?) because he's a very specific shape, and he has less tentacles than you got there, and they look more believable in the movie version...from the topology stage up. Have you got access to a licence of Z-Brush?

Actually, I have the same amount of tentacles, I made sure of that, I just need to arrange them differently. They look like in the movie because they're resting on his body. I know the tentacles here look less believable, but I'm still working on them. I'm not nearly done with this figure. And yes, I have zbrush.

Right, we'll take it from there. Beef up the Tentacles a little bit, lengthen the one's at the back too, and I think move his eyes closer together. I definitely think they are closer together on the model in the movie. Keep going!
