Glauco Longhi Sculptor

Studying anatomy with Zbrush

I really like to use real life models, but they are quite expensive, so I’m always buying books, like Virtual Pose.

This model was based on Pablo.

Almost 4 days of work, trying to see and sculpt the volumes on the right way.

I used some anatomy books too, just to check it.

Before this entire study, I did some sketchs focused on some specifics parts of the human body.

It’s hard to understand everything at the first, and I’d like to say that I didn’t get the point, but nevermind, let’s study and rock.

And here we go with my first real study of anatomy.

The beautiful David done by Miguel Angelo was my choice.

I know that is not a perfect likeness, but between that, it was very good for me, know that anatomy is much more than some big muscles.

A simple and complex pose at the same time, and we can see that the human body is wonderful. The curves, volumes, shapes, everything has space, a complex mass intersected with some muscles, bones, and everything that we already know.

After anatomy, we can bring some ideias from our head to the clay/zbrush.

This monsters are based on my mind or some good artist that made a good concept/sculpture.
