I'm wanting to pay for a highly detailed photorealistic President George W. Bush head, to be constructed based on the following mesh:

[attachmentid=23116]

The above mesh is a work-in-progress by another artist I'm working with - it's "spline-heavy" and therefore should have adequate geometry to do a fine model. Additionally, I can provide (IF NEEDED) a 3DS prop for use as a reference from a 3D scan of this presidential statue:

If some geometry adjustments are necessary, then USE YOUR BEST JUDGEMENT - just keep the NECK RING THE SAME, so it can be re-attached to the body of my model.

I can also supply gum/teeth/tongue from another model, if it saves work and makes sense.

Further, the following will be required:

1. Use A:M hair for eyebrows, eyelashes, and head hair.
2. Model major facial wrinkles that work with mouth opening in a anatomically correct way and are (within reason) pose slider-able
3. In conjunction with the above, basic mouth and eyelid open/close should be done
4. Besides #3, capture the following trademark expressions as poses: the squint, the jaw jutting, and the smirk
5. Complete phoneme modeling for use with A:M dictionary should be done
6. Fine texturing, preferably using 3D Painter, but a good job using just the UV Editor and regular A:M Decaling would suffice too.
7. Eye target tracking.

Keep in mind that our use of this model will not be kind or respectful to the man - ponder this, and if you have a problem with it, then kindly do not submit a bid. OTHERWISE, IF INTERESTED AND QUITE TALENTED, PLEASE EMAIL ME: Karl@KarlTMiller.com WITH YOUR PRICE AND ESTIMATED SCHEDULE.

Thanks!

I don't see any mesh

Model's left side in my original post... STILL NO TAKERS ON THIS JOB????

A render of the mesh appears at the bottom of my original (first) post. Plenty of geometry (patches) to work with, but no real resemblence other than it's an anatomically correct man's head. I'd be hoping to preserve the neck spline and also (some) of the original smartskin and muscle poses, as they might be useful/modifiable for the President's character.

Hey Karl,

Actually the mouth and chin arent far off from his royal highness's. You could push and pull a few points to get a good likeness. I'd love to help you out but I'm slammed, and I don't think I could look at his likeness to long. I have enough issues with pictures. I'll ask around and see if anyone I know using AM is up for it.

Colin -

Thanks! I'm doing my first ever A:M mesh to a real person model where I'm taking a 3D scan of a real person and wrapping high res flat lit photos around it. The problem is getting the actress's final sign off on the finished product - once I do that, I'll publish my results over on this other thread. It's a tough thing to do, and maybe if no one takes up this job, I'll do my second one on the president...
