THE YU JUN PROJECT: Digital Double 3D Portrait

Realistic 3D Character Portrait
This is a high-resolution 3D portrait of a young Asian male wearing a dark hoodie. I created this character focusing on photorealistic skin shading, accurate facial anatomy, and realistic fabric details.

Workflow highlights:

Sculpted in ZBrush

Retopologized and detailed in Maya

Textures painted with The Foundry Mari

Hair created with XGen/Grooming

I paid special attention to subtle details like pores, asymmetry, and realistic lighting to bring the character to life.

Clothing was simulated in Marvelous Designer, and hair groomed using XGen for ultimate realism.

Lighting was inspired by photographic portraits: a single key light aimed at the face to highlight expression and personality.
Flawless grooming by the amazing @latif_fajrin, who once again exceeded expectations.

The hoodie visible in this shot was designed by the incredible @adelhunt. It’s been a pleasure collaborating with her for the first time, and the results speak for themselves.

This is just one of several renders I’ll be sharing soon. Stay tuned!
