#4

WIP 03 : Without Glasses. Try to get the all face, since I may use it for Dutch or Conan character.

#5

More attention to the nose.
I think it must be more narrow.

#6

More narrow the nose? ok I will look at it thanks

#7

Yeap.
Look here.

#8

I did two more WIP , but you use my first one… you using an old wip to comment but I already try to correct it in the others versions. Need to know if my last nose is good, seems good to me.

#9


Oh … my bad.
But there is still a problem. Look at his nose from side. Try to catch the shape

/maybe you have better side view…

p.s.: Forehead fix needed too.

[ul]

[/li][li]Add the eyes
[/li][li]I work maybe too much on the cheeks.
[/li][li]I still try to get a good overall proportion.
[/li][li]I work now a Linear way.
[/li][li]I adjust the scale too match his real height (6’1", based on me, I don’t believe he is 6’2").

I think the face still needs work. Even though it’s a cartoon, a good cartoon usually takes prominent features of the face and exaggerates them a bit. In Arnie’s case, he has a very distinctive chin, small eyes, and distinctive lips so try to pay attention to those in particular.

Right now, this is recognisable as the Terminator, but I think you could do a much nicer job of it with a bit more effort.

If you look, for example, at this cartoon of Arnie, you can see what I mean:

Notice how the artist has exaggerated the forehead, eyes, lips and chin.

Thanks Leigh, I will try to get some caricature in it. Even if I don’t really want to get this far in the style. This want to be close to Franco-belge BD or Comics.

But yah I need some exaggerated shapes

I edit an old post for it.

#21

I feel like you should either give the ear a realistic shape or make it completely smooth.

Nice work! Looks a lot like Arnold.

#22

eheh, don’t know why people keep focusing on his ears. eheh

Will do a layer in Zbrush so I can get details and if I don’t want to keep them, delete it :wink:

Thanks for the critic

Looking reay sweet!!
Also love the progressive steps your posting: for a newbie like me it clearly shows the workflow and teaches me a lot! Thx for that :keenly:

Think Arnold would reminisce to the good old days when seeing this :cool:

Keep up the great work!
