This project is a stylized 3D character bust inspired by Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars. The goal was to blend live-action likeness with animated stylization, focusing on strong facial structure, readable silhouette, and simplified forms.
The sculpt emphasizes key features such as the sharp jawline, distinct chin shape, and expressive brow to capture Anakin’s personality. I also incorporated stylized elements inspired by animated interpretations, especially in the hair design and overall proportions.
A unique concept choice in this piece is the addition of sand on top of the head, referencing Anakin’s iconic dislike of sand. This detail adds subtle storytelling and personality to the character while keeping the design visually interesting.
The model was sculpted and refined with attention to clean topology and form readability. Lighting and rendering were designed to enhance mood, using warm tones and contrast to reflect the character’s darker transformation.
