Alyx Vance mini bust 1

[Natan]

Here is a sketch I'm doing of Alyx Vance. it is sculpted from regular sculpey I tinted brown with some classic FIMO. just some advise don't ever buy regular sculpey. cause it sucks. I will make a bigger one out of supersculpey (good stuff) some day. but for now I'll just settle for a little sketch. the scale is about 1:6. thanks for looking.

Head is a little oddly shaped, but very nice detail on the face.

I wish I could do stuff like that
good work man.

yes she needs more head. but it's a work in progress. right now I'm just worried about the face. I have the SDK but have trouble using it. all I can do is see her forehead. the rest is always off screen. I'm using the art of Half-life book for reference but her facial expression isn't always the same so figuring out that model viewer is a must for the likeness. thanks for the comments

Her head definitely seems off in the profile. Generally the nostrils end right when the eye begins and the lips go to the middle of the eye. Also her forehead doesn't quite seem to be the same arc as her jaw, it looks a bit too flat. And lastly her head is too skinny, the head is about as wide as it is tall (generally). This is me talking like this is a drawing, I don't know how all this holds up in a sculpture.

A great start, however, I can definitely see the likeness coming along.

Neat. How far are you taking this in terms of detail?

 

[Natan]

Sorry for the late responce. I cannot take this too far in terms of detail cause it's regular sculpey. and it does not hold detail very well. even basic form is a pain in the ass with this medium. I haven't touched it since I snapped those pics. but I've been having some computer issues and relay on proper pics for proper likeness execution. thanks for looking!
