stylized sculpting from real life references in zbrush

Prepare the project to be printed and to 3D print it.

Start the digital modeling process in ZBrush.

Collect facial references of the person we wish to make a representation of and create a study sheet of the face.

To create a portrait, we go through several very precise steps: Modern Life uses 3D printing to bring their digital sculptures to life.

We asked artist Toria Casarro to walk us through how Modern Life produces portraits, and why Pixologic's ZBrush and the Form 2 were the clear choice for bringing their art to life. Meanwhile, the small size of their business requires that each tool in their workflow be affordable and efficient.

Their artwork features tiny details that must be rendered with precision. The artists at Modern Life Workshop create hyper-realistic portrait sculptures of actors and celebrities in iconic roles. Creating an astonishingly life-like sculpture of actor Daniel Craig is no easy feat-it takes advanced artistry and cutting-edge tools.Įmerging 3D technologies, like digital sculpting and desktop stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing, present artists with the ability to create incredibly detailed sculptures that would be impossible to make with any other medium.
