This project was an exciting challenge! I started with a sphere in ZBrush (see timelapse for beginning of process) and retopologized him in Maya. Everything apart from his t-shirt is sculpted by hand (pore by pore) and painted with polypaint in ZBrush. I made his shirt in Marvelous Designer, retopologized it in Maya, and textured it in Mari. Hair is XGen and he was rendered in Maya. Composited in Photoshop.
Thanks for looking!
