I thought you might like to see how he's coming along! Modelling is nearly finished, just a little tweaking to do, ignore the plinth thing, I just threw that together at the last minute. I intend creating a realistic (ish!) texture for him and attempting a realistic render.

And a quick render!

Cool...there's something odd about brow though...I can't put my finger on it (well duh, it's a cg model, you can't touch those). Seriously though, shouldn't there be more of a transition between his eyebrow and forehead? Or was Alfie a serious cueball? Either way, it's killer work, Baz. Loving it.

Cheers Teyon! Hmm, gonna have to check my refs on the brow, I thought it was OK but when I've been staring at a piece of work for too long I regularly miss errors :o) Thanks for the feedback mate! - Baz

Can't model heads (only potato heads), but I have to say this is an incredible likeness. Though you might want to revisit the column base to do the bust some justice. :oP Cheers! M

Cheers Moe! Yeah the pedestal thing is pretty ropey! I was modelling this for the Wings forum monthly challenge, it was going to be a close up realistic flesh and blood job. I ended up running out of time and hastily changed it into this marble bust affair to meet the deadline - which has now been extended LOL! Anyway, I'm still going to do the realistic texture if I can but I kinda like this look too so I may rework the base :o) - Baz

Just great, I wish I could do people, or anything organic for that matter, it's so Hitchcock it's untrue. I do think the ears are too low though, imagine a pair of glasses on him to see what I mean. He had features at the extremes of the norm, but this is just that jot outside those parameters. John

It's looking fantastic. And Hitch did have odd low ears

Thanks for the comments folks! I have had problems with the ears, they look different in every pic I can find so I been endlessly moving and resizing them! I'll take a look again :o) - Baz
