HMC #22: Classic Self Portrait - Zhang Sheng

#1

Hello all, I join in HMC #22.This is my first time to join,Prior to this, I am often concerned about the here HMC.

well, this is my inspiration:The Family of GenDuhesme by Joseph Chinard (1801)
I appreciate the works of Joseph Chinard right to express my respect.

Obviously, this is a challenge for me.

Thanks for posting on my thread. The sculpture you are doing is very elegant. I am loving what you have done so far. The fabric of the woman’s dress will be challenging, but will be amazing. Good progress, I look forward to seeing more.

wow-

your pregress is really impressive

you use the sculpture image as reference image in 3D space to get the pose ~

I didnt think about that, thanks ! :slight_smile:

Today, my progress is a small. I added the children’s model. Adjust his posture and position,I spent a lot of time ,in order to make him look accurate.

I think about I will put my 2-year-old daughter,my wife and my face in to this work.
Chinese’s face into the 18th-century sculpture ,maybe seem strange,but I think it was very interesting. and I want to use this way to express the love to my family.:slight_smile:
