Edgar Molesworth (WIP)

A stylised head sculpt, based on a LARP character - Edgar Molesworth, a telegraphier from the wild west. It’s a semi-self portrait, trying to emphasise the features that I imagine the character as having. I’m really pleased with this - it feels like an appealing and memorable character face, the pinched features and shape language emphasise the character, and he has just the right expression of ‘slightly-startled-sweetheart who means well but is a bit out of his depth’ that the character represents.

The texture is still a work in progress. I used SoMuchDiffuse, then went back in and painted more colour variation into the face. I'm going to go back over and hand-paint elements of the face, and the hair/moustache/hat/eyes haven’t even been looked at yet.

Sculpted in blender, textured in substance painter. Retopologised using Z Remesher.
