HMC#28: Comic Book Master Tribute - Jamie Hewlett - Inspector Gadget

#3

Yeah, Inspector Gadget!
Looking forward to your first wip images.

Cheers!

#4

@TheRazorsEdge: Thanks

Basemesh and some initial sculpting:

#5

Rotopo and modelled basemeshes for clothes.

#6

Started on some more sculpting:

#7

Go gadget.
Id refrain from making him look too much like the busted up one from gorillaz…
Nice work.

#8

Nice work! I can’t wait until this is finished.

#9

@DeadlyMostlyHarmless: Which one? I’m not sure what you mean.
@rries: Thanks1

Sculpting continues. I’m liking the face in front view. Not so much from profile.

#10

Sweet progress so far!

To fix the profile, try pulling the back of the head out a bit and pushing the front of the face in.

Cheers!

#11

Working on the legs mainly. Improved the face a little too.

#12

Worked on the boots. Man those laces took a while.

#13

Very nice. I like this twisted version of Gadget. Great sculpt on the boots.

#14

@WyattHarris: Thanks!

Posing:

#15

Great update!

#16

@Roberto: Thanks!

Found some time to do some more work on it. I added some basic colour too, I can’t remember if that’s allowed for the final entry but it was interesting just to see.

#17

Looks top notch Bertie.

Would be interested to see if you added a toon outline, how it would look.

#18

at the moment the smile he has looks a little awkward…

perhaps if he had a mouth closer in look the Gorillaz (downturned and closed) it might help pull it closer to the hewlett look

all that aside it’s coming out great

#19

Blocked in the gadgets. The three quarter view below is showing a number of issues that need fixing.

#20

Added in pretty much all the gadgets and accessories I want now:

#21

Some polishing, decimated and imported into blender. Rendered in v-ray. Still a couple of issues to sort out.

DESCRIPTION:
I chose to try and apply Hewlett’s chaotic style to a well known character, and opted for Gadget. Basemeshes and hard surface stuff in blender, sculpting in zbrush.
