Making of Kameswaran Iyer (Typical South Indian) by Prashant Sadaphule, India
Hi. I am Prashant Sadaphule from India. I wanted to explore certain areas like character modeling/texturing/lighting which is what inspired me to do this model. The character was done by using 3dsmax7, Maya, Body paint and Photoshop.
This is the photo reference of my friend Kameswaran Iyer commonly known as “Kamee’’. This is the standard expression of my friend. He always has a laughing face while he speaks any thing. Kamee is a South Indian Brahmin. This model is a representation of him in his traditional costume.
Process of Modeling
I usually start modeling with a sphere. I delete selected shape for lips and define more form
Then I extrude for his nose. Selected the highlighted face shown below and extrude to define nose.
Now I started to give shape to the model until it came near to the reference photo.
Hear I collapsed the symmetry and offset the right side lips shape and jaw.
