Hi ladies and gentlemen

Maybe community can motivate me again on this piece

I want remade this photo in 3d to challenge my anatomy and lighting skills

The goal isn't to have everything be exact as the same in photo, i just want something similar

Thanks for support

Hey mate, thats rather cool - like what ya have so far - one thing i notice is he seems off balence, his left shoulder seems to far back and would make him fall over. bringing it closer into line with the pelvis should make it look closer to the original pic. Dunno if ya can or want to do that?

Good work mate...

Thanks Steelsky
you are right, i changed that a bit, but will work more on the the balance when having more free time

What a cool study! I think this one is coming along pretty good. The torso needs some attention imo. The chest and abs in particular. Try to convey that look of the bones sticking out in the chest and the muscular forms of the abdomen. Right now your abdomen is coming across looking more like loose skin than muscle. I like what you got going on with his right foot. Looking nice. Overall Im liking the direction this is headed.

Really like the idea, & looks like you're on the right track.

Just thought I might offer another alternative suggestion on the balance issue. I think if you very subtly bent his left knee / ankle just a little bit more it might help. Maybe it's just me, but looking at the painting, I think that knee's probably bent a little more.....but just hard to notice due to the viewpoint.

newhoo, just an idea.

Can't wait to see more, especially if you can manage to get that awesome lighting it'd look sahweet. ')

This seems like a very cool subject.
I'd say that you should try to look over his cheeks a bit. To make him look softer, as in the image.
His shoulders and chest are both to broad though...

Keep up the good work! :)

After putting both images on top the flow pops out in yours. First of all you have more hard angles on your chest lines, as with the person from the image the line is almost a curve.

Another big thing is the position of the head and the directions he is looking. The real person has the head leaned more on the back and is looking higher. Hope this helpes:

Oh, thanks man, this is awesome
i just feel the angle of head and was going to correct it, but with your overlap the problems jump out
the chest curve should be corrected too

when it is going to reproduce an image everything will go much harder, ha ha
