Sculpting SBS Part One

[Richie]

Hi Barrie,
At the top of the previous page your second photo, I've been racking my chimp brain trying to think who this looks like. Eureka!

Jimmy Durante? An uncanny likeness.
cheers

Nice one Richie.
I think Durante just wins by a fraction of nose.

Hi Andrew,
You would not want to be in a race with him, he would beat you by a nose every time
cheers

Hmm, Perhaps with a little bit of 'Donald Pleasence', mixed in!

Good tutorial here.

Thanks very much for the tutorial Martin.
It certainly shows you in detail how to approach a sculpt.
Cheers,
Andrew

Here's Philippe Faraut, there's no words but you should have a look at all his videos. He does a great one where he ages a face but this is the hand

Hi Richie, lol, purely coincidence I can assure you.

Martin, some good videos there, good to see how people approach things. So many different ways of doing this. I suppose we just have to keep trying until we find the way that suits us.

Not been able to get much done lately, but this is my latest offering, again it's 120mm.
So fire away with suggestions and critiques folks.




Sorry for the quality of the pics.
Barrie.

Barrie, now Richie's put up the picture, why don't you carry on with the head and turn it into Durante?

 

[martin tabony]

Your making obvious progress Barrie.

Could do as it's not been baked yet, something to think about I suppose but would probably make it worse lol

Thanks very much Martin, my goal is to one day be able to do a complete figure hopefully.

If you search the net for "eye reference" or "facial expressions" you get lovely things like this. How much do I wish the internet was around fourty years ago!

From where I'm sitting, that's a great step forward.
Well done,
Andrew
