[color=lime][font=Times New Roman]Sketches of Albert Einstein:
[/color][/font]Here are some rough sketches of Einstein (please keep in mind that hand drawing is not my strong point), both are of the face, because I figure that the face is were most of my 15,000 limit will be going to
Also I tried to focus on the age (deep eyes, wrinkles in the skin, and aging hairline) I think that it turned out very well, but I feel that there could be some more Improvement. I will try some more sketches very soon.

[color=lime][font=Times New Roman]More Sketches of Albert Einstein:
Here is another drawing of Einstein. This took me a long time to do, but as I said above, the face is the most important part of the character IMO, so here is my final face sketch… I will have the final overall sketch very soon.

“Here is another photo of Einstein” , “so here is my final face sketch”
This is a sketch or a photo?

Cant wait to see him modelled up…try to keep the poly density fairly even throughout the body if you want a successful model. Might look strange if you focus the polys mostly in the face.

We have one Wacom tablet at our school for our digital animation class, and me and my teacher worked on this (mostly me, he just helped me out around the wrinkles on the top
) I think that it came out very good
When I said that most of the polys were going to the head, I meant that about 5000
Is this too much? Also, yes it was a “sketch” quite possibly the longest one I have ever done
little over a week!?! I plan to have the side view very soon
Also, that sketch was based on a photo from one of the history books from our American History class; I did a search on Google, and found a very similar photo that was almost identical to the one in the book

[color=white][color=white][size=3][font=Times New Roman]PS: Thanks for finding the typo and good work on Attila the Hun, so far! Your concept art was amazing! Also what software are you using? MAX?

Hey, thanks for the kind words… :slight_smile: I am still making more sketches of Einstein, since I don’t get XSI 4.2 till’ Christmas… I will post them as soon as I am able to get my hands on my new modeling software!

Can’t wait!
Only 8 more days…
