An album cover for friends of mine.
The goal was to illustrate their current album with three different “emotions” hope, sadness and lust.
It’s been a long time since I last sculpted facial expressions. During the process I used an old skull model of mine to better understand the bony structures underneath. I also used Houdini to break up the decimated model procedurally in the end and also adding a bit of curl noise to it.
I mainly used the Kodak 2383 LUT for color grading.

Unfold algorithm I created in Houdini in order to achieve an interesting peel effect, which I later used for the still image.

Since the head was made from scratch I used my skull model to better undestand the human head.
