Ton Roosendaal 3D Portrait Made with Blender

[@ydoucare55]

"This is my first time sculpting in Blender". Dude plows through it like he's done it 15,000 times.

[@AdamNisenziSpisak]

typical

[@DemShion]

its the artist, not the tool who does the heavy lifting

[@lolpoly3d]

I have a lot of experience with Zbrush, and the core tools are very similar. Also, through the magic of editing, you don't see me looking for every feature I need to use :)

[@RyanKingArt]

Great work on this! Looks just like Ton!

[@lolpoly3d]

Thank you!

[@SiegeTales]

Wow, this is so well made!:)

all i can say is 25 minutes were not a waste...enjoyed every minutes watching it.

[@ptt619]

Ton is awesome! I was in Amsterdam a little while ago and I decided to go to blender studios, as soon as I walk in I met Ton and his dog, he came out to greet me and shook my hand! Such a cool and down to earth guy, his dog is also adorable. The portrait also looks just like him :)

[@mohanpugaz]

This person changed so many peoples life by keeping blender opensource. Unlimited respect for his thoughts. ❤.

[@eobet]

It's fascinating how 90% of artists sculpting famous people fall into uncanny valley of weirdness even in their final renders, yet here the likeness is nailed just a few minutes into the video!

[@aegisgfx]

Its the same for real life sculptures or wax figures of people, no matter how much time you spend you never get it looking 100% like its real life.

Спасибо за видео! Оно очень воодушевляет и мотивирует! Буду ждать следующего видео

[@RaffoVFX]

I want to see Ton's reaction in seeing this! Amazing job

[@Blue-Scorpion]

Can someone tag him? This looks amazing

[@samdavepollard]

crikey, this is pretty special outstanding work not to mention an excellent illustration of just what blender's capable of in the right hands

[@LONE_PUPPY]

Hi, Mr. Ton Roosendaal. Tons of tons of thanks for presenting Blender to the world.

[@mipe7755]

Wow, this needs to be everywhere!

[@golporoshik]

My humble request to you is "plz make a detailed character modeling course" for us. You are a guru and I am your newest disciple. Thanks for being an inspiration.

[@orinokonx01]

This is amazing! I hope Ton sees this :D

[@legome_theog]

Excellent sculpt! I love how accurate you made this, down to the wrinkles and pores and everything

[@TommyLikeTom]

It's been a long time since I watched a modeling video from start to finish. You're a journeyman of your craft

[@rototype786]

This is criminally underated your stuff is great!

[@syturnercamera]

Agreed.

[@hopal6612]

Hey dude. It was a very informative, educational and fun process. I am a lecturer at a university. My main branch is Painting. But I learned 3D software by myself and from video lessons. I have been using Cinema4d for about 30 years. I started learning Zbrush during the pandemic period just for Sculp, but compared to C4d software, Zbrush's interface seemed very inefficient to me. I started learning Blender at the age of 60. I think I've come a long way, but there's still a lot to learn. In order to direct my students according to their interests, I need to have at least knowledge in many areas. Therefore, focusing on a certain area (such as specializing entirely in character or entirely solid modeling) is quite difficult both in terms of time and equipment. My general preference for character modeling is box modeling and then detailing with sculp. Thank you for your video, which is a very good workflow example for me and the students I can direct. I subscribed to your channel and I think it would be very useful if you prepare videos for some applications that you cannot include enough in this video. Best regards.

[@zubbapmdemeli4684]

wow!

[@sanderh4600]

Up until now I've always thought that blender could only be used for cartoonish sculpts and that it would struggle at higher poly counts. You've successfully proved that wrong, and I can see now that with the right workflow you can absolutely make some great models! A well-made and thoroughly enjoyable video!

[@Nomilus]

Brilliant sculpt! Like so many others, I look forward to seeing more of your work here.

[@JulioMullet]

a tribute that I would like to make, but technically unable at the moment. I'm glad that other artists in the community are able to accomplish this. Despite the first time, you did a very good job. Congratulations!

[@kelpfishes]

this is incredible!! as a relatively new 3d user, it was fun to follow along and the pacing was not overwhelming. it makes me want to try creating a character asset too!

[@rileyb3d]

This is top tier! Blender, zbrush, substance, I don't care what you use, thanks for the level of artistry and process you showcase here. I LOVE that this isn't a "hey, I'm a zbrush guy. I used blender but don't really know where things are" tutorial. You know your stuff and while there are some limitations, you showcased a tool in its best light. Bravo.

[@kieronestrada6402]

great work and inspirational!!

[@JTLN25]

Cool

[@user-t3m]

just WOW

[@TommyLikeTom]

Truly fantastic artwork. Perfect mixture of realism and style. I tend to feel comfortable in my own blender niche of bendy-bone facial rigs. It's the only thing that keeps me from feeling completely inferior to brilliant sculptors like yourself

[@lolpoly3d]

Thank you! I can model but don't know the first thing about rigging and animating, so I'd say it's normal :)

[@StefanReich]

Captured the uncanny valley perfectly 😄

[@3DR-yw9dd]

Thanks Ton

[@Jfaups08]

[@RealSeanSchumacher]

Hi Stefan, just found your amazing work here - subscribed! 😊keep up the good work. I couldn't help but 100% relate to your note about the background music, and not being monetized, etc. I've had the same struggles and experience!
