Welcome back to another 2D to 3D video! In this video I am going to be sculpting this Grumpy Wizard based on the artwork of Esben Lash! @esbenlash9968. And I know... I made a pumpkin wizard in my last video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpaspmCAgZ2oqpI). But what do you want me to do? I really like wizards!
Check out some of my favorite 2D to 3D videos below!

[@kicktoyrocks]

It's crazy how details make the image so much better. You don't think about them until they aren't there. Amazing work. Keep it up!

[@LordBaktor]

You spent half the video trying to make the sculpt believable and, sadly, it ended up unbelievable instead :P

[@Follygon]

You’re unbelievable!

[@johannfunn6962]

This old guy looks awesome, thanks for sharing. Especially love his eyes

[@onepresence9460]

These 2D to 3D videos shows my appreciation for both 2D and 3D animation. They are equally amazing to me. Great job 👍

[@NotSoMax]

It was cool seeing you make a character with more textured skin and surfaces, and that snakehook+alpha tip is perfect for a project I’m working on

[@MarioInfantesyoutube]

Your workflow is absolutely immaculate.

[@joebalanoff7970]

You’ve really inspired me to continue work on my game! I really struggle with art and these are always an inspiration! :)

[@Follygon]

Thanks!

[@1x1.studio]

Wow, just wow! I'm officially impressed.

[@iiMrNiceGuyii]

Every time I see a video you post it makes me want to get back into sculpting. I haven’t sculpted in years because of burn out but I really need to get back into it.

[@Greg-mq7fo]

Hey Follygon, you're a huge inspiration to me 😇

[@sinxenon3181]

Você é incrível, vou ser igual a vc um dia

[@ravnkottr]

Alright so somehow I skipped exactly to the "hello skippers" after about 20 minutes so I immediately went back. Excellent tactic lmfao

[@user-fv8uv2us9r]

Damn, I'm fall in love with that mustaches

[@pyros.]

Saw this on Artstation yesterday.

[@fabriziopacifici7531]

hei follygon, you're the best dude.

[@lukaburrell2606]

[@Follygon]

いいえ。いいえ！

[@Glitch-Gremlin]

This video wasn't made too soon, or too late. it was made PRECISELY When it was meant to be made.

[@TheOppiter]

this character gives me some mad ORCS MUST DIE old man wizard vibes.

[@MrElwood1985]

Wow this is amazing!! I have a little bit of background in 3D design but this is next level! Subscribed right away! Just curious as to how long this sculpt took you

[@kagasa9421]

14:28 DASH

[@LafeSpace]

That dude is ugly without his beard haha. Excellent work as always. I like the way you continue to push your craft and at a high level.

[@boviklayevhs785]

Magnificent skills Folly! Now how do i retopo that.

[@Follygon]

Carefully of course!

[@PDD555]

Simply astonishing. Can't believe how much detail you added in 20 hours but it makes the final sculpture look breathtaking even without any lighting render. The skin and cloth textures looks unbelievable too

[@VicenteRaiol]

1:42 oh damn it's Serj Tankian 😂

[@mathewspear3011]

If I may ask, what type of system and programs do you use? I have such horrid issues with my current system and the stylus setup you use looks like it would help me immensely as I'm used to sculpting clay sculptures by hand. Any help/info you can share I'd be so greatful. Btw that is freaking beautiful work dude! I watched the video like 4 times its just badass.

[@bhosadpappu8857]

Good luck to the person who is going to retopo

[@sgtmoose1942]

Pretty sick sculpt. He looks like he's got more than a few hard miles on him.

[@taysmane]

Absolutely gorgeous piece, loooove the way you did the smoke! Currently saving for the appeal academy, been thinking about becoming a patron until then for the tutorials. Are the patreon tutorials full length with explanations? Just wanna know what to expect

[@Follygon]

Thanks! Patreon tutorials are in real-time and everything is explained step by step!

[@pptcubas]

Wonderful work and explanations, very high quality, THANK YOU Follygon !!! 🙂 Can I ask you which are the Brushes that you use for the chunks of hair in the beard, the moustache and the eyebrows? The curve Brush and then the Brush you use to refine the chunks. How can I get these Brushes? Thank you !!

[@janu2147]

can you make another video with nomad sculpt?

[@rudylissettecedenocercado8930]

This is amazing!! Can you tell me what program it is? I would like to learn

[@DarkNemesis25]

Wow super interesting, do you have any interest in VR modeling with oculus medium?

[@artoki8576]

what tablet are you using? nice work

[@fernandomarroquin5720]

that large rigid collar could likely be used to carry things??

[@jonah.w7397]

I believe it is a pauldron. It’s an arm or piece for your shoulders

[@fortis_sapiens]

YAMETEEE KUDASAIII

[@decoding975]

which material you use in z brush?

[@ninipop82]

Where did you render it?

[@michalslavik9989]

do you have full video on patreon ?

[@bigboomer1013]

Looks like handsome squidward at first lol

[@raphaelbranly2945]

What logiciel you use?

[@SPSdrawing]

Nice work....i have a small doubt ..after posing ur character how do u use symmetry ....

[@Follygon]

That’s the neat part! You don’t.

[@Sora-moho]

What render engine did you use for your final render? it looks incredible!

[@purplefyrus5370]

He usually uses Blender or sometimes just in Zbrush

[@Follygon]

Blender

[@Dr.W.Krueger]

Non-industry standard garbage

[@puliceyahooin]

Which sofware is this...?¿

[@MuiGoldfishBrain]

Why does it have to be at 3 ammmmm :( Maybe it’s just cuz I’m in Asia 😢

[@sorituanasution1180]

Hi I'm your new subs, great process man. I'm an illustrator. I want to take 3D course next year. Can you suggest me where to start? I mean, it's a whole new world for me. Thanks :)

[@Follygon]

Check out my courses at the link in my bio. My Patreon is a great start, as well as my beginners guide.

[@mekky8230]

Do you practice the sculpt before you start recording?

[@Follygon]

Hah hah hahhhh I wish I had time for that sort of thing

[@mekky8230]

@@Follygon That's pretty cool then! How long does a sculpt like this take you in real time from start to finish?

[@yehawlover]

@@mekky8230 they said in the video that this took about 20-25 hours to finish 😵which is amazingly fast imo

[@allmusicplays]

That is a lot of vertex's i dont know why my computer struggles so harshly with video editing or these types of tasks it kind of puts me off and really slows down the workflow. Anyone can guide me to pc upgrades i could get? My current specs are: Cpu: AMD Ryzen 5 3500X 6-Core, 3 GHZ, 6 Core(s), 6 Logical Processor(s) 0.8 Volts Gpu: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Ram: 16 GB ddr4 Hard drive and ssd

[@whoamI-tk3qz]

Honestly your pc is really above average. Except the cpu but even then you should be fine. In case you are on a laptop plug the charger in as you work (laptop gpu's don't work without the charger) and check for any background app/process/service/etc which can slow your pc. I would recommend a software (free I believe) called wise game booster. It will automatically check for background tasks that might be eating up your computers resources and you can choose to turn those off. Sorry for the bad english

[@supercrafter6998]

what do you use for this? pls

[@Marvindlight]

looks like squidward in the start, ha.

[@Isaabnm]

Hello good time I wanted to know if I give you a program, can you do it for me? And I will pay for it

[@Brodablue]

Hi bro, i recommend You Chill music for your Videos, with Chill music Your video is Perfect, Great Job ♥

[@justmax634]

what app do you use

[@owllee9585]

The wizards nose reminds me of the villain from the Barbie swan lake movie Is that just me orrrr…..

[@ventusbocco2246]

how many times did he say "believable"

[@Follygon]

69

[@aaa-mt3tz]

lol I'm a skipper. It's because the thumbnail is blurred and I want to see what it is before I commit to watching the whole thing. (I will, this one is cool!)

[@0cards0]

hey, can you sculpt something for me? & for how much?

[@Damian_h]

do u suffer from blocking art? some nights i cant even sculpt a hand and some other days i do them in like few mins and done. I cant identify why thats happens.
