KamenRiderGumo Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I've been at it again; Lex Luthor, hot off the presses of my Xbox. Spent more than a few hours on this one, trying to get the face to resemble Michael Rosenbaum, though he ended up looking more like the Lex from the comic books. Still, I'm rather happy with how it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pac. Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Not bad. If you changed the skin to number 8 and decreased eyebrow angle, this would actually look quite a bit like Rosenbaum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brento Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Is this uploaded to Xbox Live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamenRiderGumo Posted November 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Brento: It is uploaded to Xbox Live, though I've had to re-upload it twice already because it keeps getting erased. Pac: As for the skin....interesting. I'll definitely try that out. How much should I derease the eyebrow angle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vickshow Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 As far as the eyebrow angle goes if you watched a lot of Smallville then you'll notice a lot of the time Lex/Rosenbaum has almost a sympathetic look on his face. It's not an angry look, it's more of a calm focused look. The eyebrows here, since they are angled down, make him look like he's pissed off when they should be more or less flat. That's my opinion at least, use it as you will. Would be very interested in seeing a finished version of this as I have recently been going back through Smallville.

KamenRiderGumo Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I just finished watching all ten seasons in about two months (first time I'd ever seen it period). I angled the eyebrows the way I did initially because I realized he looked more like pissed-off comic book Luthor than Smallville Luthor, though since Pac's suggestion I've been "tweaking" the face more and more. I don't think it's 100% perfect yet, but I feel I'm getting closer. Here's a preview: I'm also thinking of removing the "Kent Farm" attire to replace it with an Orange Lantern uniform, if I can ever manage to get the Corp insiginia made right.

Vickshow Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 It's definitely getting closer, are you using any reference pictures at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamenRiderGumo Posted November 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 As many as I can get my hands on; I honestly couldn't show you every one because I'm not saving them to my hard drive and it's not like I bothered to remember which ones I used. I'd just find two or three pics that I thought gave me a good view of what I wanted to work on (like the nose or jaw) and work from there, compensating the best I could for angle, distance, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
