I can't tell if that was sarcasm or not. :raise:

The mouth needs more muscle work to make it look stronger like it does in the reference. His eyes sockets also need to be smaller to make him look angrier. Lol.

It looks a little too low poly imo

I work from low poly up. Get the proportions and general shapes right. Then I start detailing the skin.

:woop: Smoothed version of the base

you do realize you should be modeling parts in low poly, like the opening of the mouth, the brow, etc, right? a normal map isn't going to do what you're thinking it will.

That is just the base mesh. Not for the normal map :), just so I have 3d geometry to work with in zbrush. I could have built the base out of zspheres but I wasn't really in the mood. I'll make the low poly later by retopologizing the sculpt.

Looks a lot better now. Work on the arms a bit, give them some beefy muscles and veins.
