TheDarkKnight's Sketchbook
polycounter lvl 13
Didn't want to take up to much space in WAYWO thread, and seeing as the likeness on my latest sculpt was guessed, figured I'd post it here along with my reference
(all perspective shots)
and the ref :
Might want to get this printed,so any help to make it better is much appreciated!

crit wise i think the puffiness on either side of his bottom lip needs to be made a little more subtle. It looks good but i dont think its there yet, i saw it in the WAYWO thread and thought it might be Eminem but wasn't sold on it like i am on other peoples guess who this is sculpts but you are deff getting there : ) keep it up
Edit: head might need to be made more round? looks a bit taller then the refs
Here's a shot without polypaint:
and the Ortographic views:
I would also make his nose a bit more pointy.
for sure
His nose slightly curves upward in the ref
Upper lip seems less prominent in the sculpt too (looking at it from the side).
Take these suggestions with a grain of salt though. Just my first reaction.
I took all these from hd video so hopefully they're of some use to you.
Cheers for helping out on my thread and best of luck with your project.
Huge fan myself so hope to get that likeness, your pics will help
Will finally have some time to continue working on this this weekend, so hope to make some good progress.
Everyone who gave me feedback, thanks, really appreciate it, I'll keep it all in mind when I continue working on it.

Just roughing the anatomy in at the moment, and need to retopo the body and the face, seperate objects right now.
Want to get this finished before May 5th when I leave to US for a 3 week holiday
How should I go about retopo-ing this guy, seeing as he has an open jacket, should I keep that as a seperate object, for if I ever wanted to maybe do something like this? http://www1.pictures.gi.zimbio.com/Jay+Z+Eminem+Perform+Launch+DJ+Hero+Show+_YW0pCoCzbcl.jpg
Or is there a better way to do something like that??

Definitely not getting a likeness with that
Only things touched are the pants and shoes right now, rest is just polypaint bake with some added AO
Just something quick in between, was getting a little tired with the other one.
batmans looking well, though proportionally, i'd say his heads too small and his arms are maybe a bit too short
I agree with PHArt. His body looks too thick and muscular. Eminem is skinnier than that, especially around the shoulders.
You seem to have lost some of the likeness during the bake/lighting, and as mr_ace said, the clothing would benefit from having a more interesting silhouette.
Still working on my Batman, really want to finish that.
