Terry O’Quinn (aka John Locke) - Portrait

<style type=“text/css”> <!-- @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } --> </style> Hi guys,

this is my latest work, I hope it's good enough to introduce myself to this amazing community. My model is the fantastic actor Terry O'Quinn (aka John Locke from Lost). I built the basemesh with 3dsmax, then imported it into zbrush for the sculpting. It started as a one-week speed sculpt contest for an italian community and I kept working on it after the contest ended. I'm currently studying mentalray and its skin shader. There's too much SSS on the ear, i know that! I'm working on it. I hope to improve my skills with your c&c. Thx!

I think you got a pretty good likeness there. Is that really John Locke, or the smoke thing that looks like John Locke? :smiley:

Hi Derek, thx for comment.
When I sculpted it I were thinking to the smoke thing :lol:
I’ve tried to give him an angry look. I hope I’m on the right way.:rolleyes:

Hi guys,

I’ve tried to improve the light setup to remove the painted look at the render.
I hope you like it!

Very nice, I saw the thumbnail of his mouth and nose, and firsth thought that came to mind was John Locke! Good work.

Great, the resemblance is remarkable. Congratulations. :+1: :+1: :+1:

Thought he was even freakier in “The Stepfather”.

Nice. I think the small skin bump details are a bit small in scale and could be more pronounced?

:+1:

Thx all, I’m happy that you like his resemblance.
For the skin bump, yes it is too small I think. I’ll work on it a bit.

bye!

Some skin improvements:

I dont think your scattering far enough, I cant tell SSS is active, It still looks a little too rubbery.

Hi rouncer, thx for the reply!
I will fix it at next update. I’m a newbie with MR skinshader and the sss.

Hi guys,

this is my final update. From the previous update I have improved the sss, eyes, fur and light setup. I hope you like it just a bit more.:slight_smile:

Bye!

I think you did an amazing job!!! Congrats.

very nice sculpt:+1:

but on the Shader you should work a little bit

Nice expression. He’s very heavy in the lower lid region it seems. The bust base also adds an interesting touch.

Guys, thx so much for your comments and helpful critics!:+1:

Is this model up for sale?
