    Default Twisted Horror (Frankenstein (1931)) Frankenstein gets cultured

    OK, been mulling over this long enough. And decided to go with the one I have a back story for.
    So, in the movie, Frankenstein's monster throws a little girl in the lake thinking she will float like the
    flowers they had been tossing in. After climbing out of the water the little girl composed herself
    and realized this guy needed to be taught some class and culture. So she takes him home so
    she can change and also to modify "his outfit" a little. Then drags him to her ballet class.

    Yeah, I know. But it was either that or put him behind a desk with a plaque reading Public Relations Officer.

    Default When I read "Gets Cultured" I could only think of...

    ... the scene in Young Frankenstein where the doctor and his monster dance on stage and sing "Putting on the Ritz."

    As for ballet dancing, I think it might be funny to see him dressed like Mikhail Baryshnikov, but still all stiff-limbed and clumsy.

    Thanks for the comment ArtMonkey. I think it would be too creepy having a little girl dress a full grown man in tights.
    So I am just having her add some accessories to his current outfit. And since there are no boys in her ballet class she doesn't
    know any better then to give him girl type accessories (i.e. pink too-too).

    Getting started on the head pulling it out of a Dynamesh sphere. Used basic brushes like clay buildup,
    standard, smooth, and pinch. No real detail yet. Used ZRemesher with x symmetry turned on and guide curves
    to retopo for lower res, and to get better edge flow.

    Nice, with this new retopo, looks pretty good for a mesh and start sculpting the details! It is very close to frank of 1931
    I don't know if you already fixed it or if it is there.... I can see some weird polygons near the eyelids, but if you still have problems, soften the area and do a ZRemesher again and it may solve the problem.A
    Also, the side view, he appears to have an Aquiline nose. Maybe adjusting it with this reference might help http://aminddivideddotcom.files.word...is-karloff.jpg
    Keep it up!

    Thanks for the comments Halduke. Yes I did fix those pesky polys and the nose among other things.
    Here are the results so far...

    Hands and jacket still need more work.
    Plan on adding the hair last.
