CGMA 2025 Fall Term: Character Facial Sculpting Assignment

Here is the result of the 10-week Character Facial Sculpting course I attended on CGMA this summer.
(Lectures by Dmitrij Leppee, instructed by Mario Cortez)

We spent the first half of the course studying and sculpting écorché busts.
The latter half of the course focused on likeness sculpting.
I chose South Indian actor Arjun Sarja for this assignment and spent that time refining his portrayal.

I will miss CGMA because I learned from the best teachers there.
