  My first zbrush 3d sculpting self-portraitAs a photographer and filmmaker, I need a little hobby to chill my mind on my days off. For the last ten years, I am running a little illustration project mostly with Greek political caricatures but I love 3d sculpting I follow several great artists doing incredible things so I was trying to play around and make my stuff but I wasn't happy with the results. Last Friday, I installed ZBrush and I start playing with it and here is my first 3d sculpture!!! P.s. : no better model than myself to do
