A 3d model of one of my favorite superheroes, inspired heavily by one of my real-life heroes-- Alex Ross. I started by closely studying his style, looking over "Kingdom Come" and "Superman: Peace on Earth." I then moved on to freeform cube modeling in Maya, and finally detailed the model in Zbrush. I particularly love Ross' use of heavy contrast and glows in his work, which I tried to replicate here. My idea with this piece was NOT to create a cg replica of his illustrations, but to create a personalized model that was reminiscent of his style.
