Check out this fantastic 3d render (human face)
 

aside from the skin appearing a bit too glossy and the hair looking weird, this is one of the best pieces i've seen.

high resolution

Whoa..pretty cool shit :thumbsup

Wow, thats crazy!

very talented artist

Pretty good stuff. Someone is talented.

Thats cool

the character looks like a cross between tom cruse and chrisitan slater

Nice work, you know by any chance who did that and where can I contact the guy?

I may need some custom characters done for me for a special project.

Cool and respect to the person that made

right here in this thread: http://cgtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=212291

that looks pretty cool

Thanks man

Amazing. But he looks a little too metroish :winkwink:

Thats cool. How much graphic chips do you need to be able to render that in motion?...

wow looks very cool

Gotta love the technology

Thats me :

I'd say you'd need a few machines hooked up at least.
I think the star wars movies had 100 macs hooked up.. or was it a thousand?

Now that is cool

the films with a ton of CG like lord of the rings and such... use big facilities called renderfarms with a shitload of computers networked, working together to render frame by frame i believe. i dont know much about this though.

cool stuff :thumbsup

very cool render

great render. Very sharp detail. The lighting distribution kicks ass, as well!

nice pic, great render

holy shit, that last one is nuts!

ahh great so he took the advice of most of the people in his thread. :)

metro art!

last one is very real

The ears need to be remodeled + the brow ridge isn't right.
The hair is a bit funky but there might not be much you can do about that depending on what your using for it (no follices, btw). Try using different hair for the beard and maybe a slightly different color for the eyebrows.

+You forgot the adams apple ;)

very cool

Awesome skill by that cg artist

whoa, in 20 years I bet most content will be computer generated.

scary shit what technology can do

Very nice, and it looks like many, many hours of hard work.

amazing, wondering how many hours he did spend over it

that is just amazing, now if was animated ....

:thumbsup

Damn that is very good.
