Patroclus, study from Jacques-louis David


Started over a year ago, and forgotten about. A bit rough and ready, but it's done because I say it's done.

Olympia - new gesture sculpt and tutorial



Since I started the digital sculpting class at Double Negative over a year ago, I've always promised that I would do a tutorial running through how I approach a zbrush sculpt when working with the model.

Well here it is. It tips the scales at just over 2 hours long, which I know is a stretch, but I did feel that if I sped it all up more it'd be quite difficult to follow. I've chopped it into 4 parts to make it a bit more easily digestible. The sculpt is done over two 3-hour sessions with the model, plus some extra without the model.

There's a couple of weird things that I do in there because I was also doing it as a live demo for sculpture students at the Florence Academy of Art, but hopefully it's nothing too distracting.

It's all uploaded to vimeo, here are the direct links:
