Realistic 3D Portraits with ZBrush and KeyShot
|
Learn the fundamentals of creating lifelike 3D portraits and sculpt a detailed human face with ZBrush, KeyShot, and Photoshop
You no longer need to be a master of chisel and stone to sculpt, all it takes is digital software and a bit of imagination to be a modern-day Michelangelo. With the power of programs like ZBrush, you can create realistic 3D portraits that are practically indistinguishable from a photograph. The tiny details, textures, and imperfections confer virtual characters with authenticity, making them seem so lifelike you could almost touch them.
In this course, 3D character modeler Davide Sasselli, who specializes in realistic digital portraits, teaches you how to sculpt a detailed human face using ZBrush and KeyShot. Learn how to create an original character with a strong identity and tell their story through facial expressions and skin imperfections. Discover the potential of three dimensions and bring a one-of-a-kind digital portrait to life.
Begin the course with an introduction from your teacher Davide Sasselli, who tells you about his professional experience in the 3D world and where he finds inspiration for his work, from movies and video games to other artists.
Get to know your tools before you get to work, focusing on ZBrush and its main features. Then discover the steps involved in tackling a 3D portrait and put together a mood board with references for your character.
Now it’s time to sculpt! Using a base model as your starting point, work on features like the eyes, nose, and mouth until your human face reaches its semi-definitive form. Continue working on these and other aspects to shape your character’s personality and expression.
Davide then teaches you how to give your model a highly realistic look by altering the facial symmetry and adding intricate details such as skin and face imperfections, hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes.
