Bruce Willis Bust - Beauty Render

I finally finished the beauty render for the Bruce Willis bust.


Rendered using 3ds Max Mental Ray and composited using Nuke.

A lot of thank yous to these people who helped me to get this render done:
  • Dmitry Gaborak for the ZBrush class & feedback,
  • Jose Cua for pushing me to get Bruce Willis likeness,
  • David Liew for sculpting advice,
  • Giovi Lee for pointing out that some eyelid detail was missing (it led me realizing that the strongest fill light should be above the model),
  • Patrick Lim for advice with SSS,
  • and Wu Liu Shao for pointing out to me that a class is a golden opportunity to finish something good I can be proud of.
Thanks everyone :)
