Brown64 Report post Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Very nice indeed. You Sr. are an inspiration! Are the wrinkles in the face all modeling tools? Edited January 11, 2017 by Brown64 Ask a question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billybopp Report post Posted January 11, 2017 That looks really great!! I couldn't help but notice some wrinkles in your leather, tho. Could Popeye have been left out in the sun for a few decades too long? Maybe some nourishment for the leather would work. I think I'd try some spinach. Seriously tho, looks awesome.

Sheilajeanne Report post Posted January 14, 2017 Damn, that is AWESOME! It almost looks like you used some sort of form in behind the leather to get the 3-D effect! How'd you achieve it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How'd you achieve it? There is quite a bit of embossing here, and some leather plugs so it will keep its shape. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
