| FERRO LAD. 2017. Gouache on watercolor block, 9 × 12″. |
For reflective surfaces, it always helps to have good reference. And while
Ferro Lad is a bit shinier than most iron, I'm assuming he's nicely polished. The 3D model below is something I sculpted in
Sculptris, a free program you should all be using. Many materials (
matcaps) come standard with the download, but I created this one by searching for images of shiny spheres online and making the desired adjustments. Such is my life.

Outstanding work
ReplyDeleteSo the whole head and shoulders and everything, you sculpted in the program?
ReplyDeleteYep! Although, I should say that it was an anatomical figure I had already made for myself a couple years ago. Then I just smoothed out certain features to make the mask.
DeleteDude, that's still really good. Have a sort of permanent 3D model to help. Amazing.
