Mads

Mads in xenosuit

Ahh it's been a while i started this project. First I just wanted to do something cool with Vimal Kerketta's awesome (and FREE!!) Mads Mikkelsen head model. Just something simple. And then I started experimenting with creature designs, obviously scooped up a lot from Giger's xenomorph and Syu-ichi Kawata's work.

So I took Vimal's head and performed some Wrap magic on it and with a decent topology and uv-s I was already doomed and had to continue and detail a body as well. Of course I modified and sculpted on the model a bit but I wouldn't say i improved on his likeness, it was already top notch! Quickly textured in substance and made some relatively basic materials. Most time is being spent on is adjusting the skin shader probably. Unfortunately I got a little bored with the project at some point so I dialed back from the scope and scratched the idea that I rig it and pose it properly. I'm actually happy that I rendered out.

This time i experimented with more flat lighting and less dramatic, rather just to show off most of the model (cause it's not really considered finished rather abandoned) in contrast to creating a gripping mood.

Hope you guys like it and shout out to all that helped along the way maybe giving feedback, or just could wait patiently.
