Edit: New, final version of Magnificent is uploaded, so if you downloaded this head morph before May 9 8:35 am PST then please download it again. Cheers, AOBB smiley

 

This morph is based on Gregory Peck who deserves to be called magnificent not just for his handsome, towering presence, his booming, velvety voice but also for his personality that seeped into his characters, making them larger than life. What is less known is that Gregory Peck also had a wonderful, witty sense of humor that was never used to make fun of others. He was a true gentleman (as Richard pointed out). You might learn more about him here:

Here is Magnificent interpreted by me:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Assets used (all for G8.*M):

H&C dForce Dress Shirt Outfit

Trevor hair (I scaled it in the X direction to -100% to get a mirrored version of it)

Beautiful brows II (Brow 18 and 10 or 18 used twice for thickness)

Lashes Utilities

Asher character skin material with translucency set to maximum

Natural Eyes II

Lighting and Background - BOSS Portrait Lights

 

It was a pleasure and fun challenge working on such a great character. He is a fitting companion for Luminous (Audrey Hepburn).

Please enjoy and remember that because this is a head morph based on a real person then noncommercial use only! 

Cheers, smiley

    Lovely work AOBB! heart I love that you gave us our own Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck to have photoshoots with to our heart's content! This 3D business is too fun and beyond what I could have imagined possible... Sometimes I feel like pinching myself... laugh

    Love the name too - a great fit! smiley

  • AOBBAOBB Posts: 957

    Thank you, SapphireBlue! heart I wish still that I was better at getting the likenesses but I already am lightyears ahead of what I used to be, so I shouldn't complain.

    I was thinking that what is missing from the DAZ stores is a really good male suit with proper lapels and so on. A suit that also behaves like a suit when posed. After all, it would be nice to dress Magnificent as he used to dress - in a well tailored tweed suit. A 1940/early 1950's style suit would be nice too ( wide, pleated pants, wide lapels and broad shoulders). Maybe there is someone out there who would be willing to make such an outfit. I realize how difficult a task that would be, so it definitely would have to be a work of love...

    3D is definitely fun. I love working in it too! smiley

    Good to hear from you, SapphireBlue!

    P.S. I absolutely adore your panda renders. They have such a sweet and innocent sense of humor. The titles are great too!

    More awesome work!  You are one of the few that make "celebrities" that actually look like who they are supposed to!

    Cheers!

  • AOBBAOBB Posts: 957

    Oh, Chumly! That is so sweet of you to write that!

    I actually need a little self-esteem boost, because I am now working on a famous "old hollywood" celebrity that is very hard to sculpt. Her makeup and facial expressions that I find on most photos change her natural features so much I am having a real hard time with her - especially the shape and size of her eyes. It's also true that I just started working on her and usually I have to go through many iterations before the head morph begins to look anything like the celebrity whose features I'm trying to capture. That might be another reason for my frustration now.

    Anyway, thank you for your kindness, Chumly! smiley It's good to feel appreciated!

    Totally agree with Chumly, your likenesses are really great!! yes I like that you're enjoying tackling all these sculpts - I can imagine that it's satisfying work even if it's hard too. Very curious about who you are working on next!

    I agree about those male suits. I have a few of them from the store, but they really don't pose very naturally, but I've yet to do anything serious with them, so I'll see what kind of problems I run into when I do...

    Thank you about the panda renders! Half of the renders are my daughter's - we take turns baby sitting the panda! Of course now, she's been dropping a lot of hints about getting Hypertaf's latest creation - that too-cute goat Popcorn! smiley

    DAZ can be used for so many silly and funny and happy things, and I really enjoy that. I have a couple of projects, where that's definitely the direction I'm heading.

  • AOBBAOBB Posts: 957

    I'm happy that my work is appreciated, SapphireBlue. This lets me know that I am doing something right. Thank you!smiley

    I have seen Popcorn in the DAZ store. So adorable. I totally understand your daughter! 

    It's good that such innocence and sweetness is also represented in the gallery (I am talking about your's and your daughter's panda images). Your images made me smile and even laugh. I am looking forward to more of those! heart AOBB

    Quite nice but I got him mixed up with Cary Grant until I saw his real name. Now I recognize him as Gregory Peck.

    No, your sculpts are good, I just don't know them as well as I know who Audrey Hepburn is.

  • AOBBAOBB Posts: 957

    Oh, I see. smiley Thank you for straighting this out, nonesuch00! Phew, I'm glad my sculpt are at least somewhat decent! laugh

    Hi AOBB, 

    I just download Mr Peck with loveheart - Thank you brilliant work!!

     

    Also, could I be cheeky with a request for one or two of the following men:

    Yul Brynner, Robert Mitchum, David Niven or Woody Strobe?? .... All these men had/led fascinating lives in there own way and I LOVE everyone of them.

     

    Keep the good work yesyes

    @ShadowBox24 - Glad you like Magnificent! I think his nose is too big now but all in all it's a decent sculpt.

    Unfortunately I cannot take requests, because making a sculpt is so energy- and time-consuming that I have to be extremely picky about who I take on. I generally tend to choose someone I have a strong personal liking for, so each sculpt is very personal. I am interested though in who you would like to see made, because that gives me ideas. If a lot of people wants to see the likeness of the same person made, I will definitely consider making one (I'm not promising though...).

    Thanks for your vote of confidence. wink smiley

    How... on... earth... looks just like him! And you are so freakin' talented at creating morphs, @AOBB

  • AOBBAOBB Posts: 957

    Thank you, @perlk ! You are a (very talented yourself) darling! smiley

  • SapphireBlueSapphireBlue Posts: 963

    AOBB Finally, FINALLY, I got round to trying out Magnificent, and of course, he's magnificent... :P I went with your great choice for hair and brows, and dialed in some HD details (for forehead wrinkles and such, which I always remember of his face). Loved working with him, and with Luminous again! They're lovely! heart

    Thank you very much AOBB! I felt like given them a dramatic emotional moment, what about I don't know... Thanks to you and your sculpts, I've started using G8.1 more comfortably. I usually just reach for G8 otherwise.

    But very lovely of you to give us all our own Audrey and Gregory for our photoshoots! laugh I loved working with them. The likeness is brilliant. heart And technology is just wild.

    @SapphireBlue - my pleasure! I'm glad you decided to broaden your technological horizons thanks to me! wink I enjoy sculpting the likenesses of old Hollywood stars and I share my work with joy. I love seeing what you will come up with with your renders. What stories you (and others) will tell. It makes it all worth it (well, I'd be doing those sculpts anyway, because I get a real blast out of it...)

    Thanks again for the lovely, emotive render. Keep them coming! laugh

    Cheers,

    AOBB
