YO! My studio is knee deep in likeness sculpting for a daunting client project and I just gotta say publicly that your videos have been absolutely invaluable for our digital education. My studio partner and I are massive fans of both of you -- thanks so much for doing this interview!!
Ian Spriggs is amazing to hear in person. Glad you interviewed him, J-Hill. Both artist has an interesting thinking process and amazing life stories to share.
I remember when this happened and having an immense level of respect and genuine appreciation for actually capturing one of my all time favorite modern artist’s right before we lost him and he had the chance to memorialize this legendary artistic master with an amazing masterpiece that was a perfect gift for his fans as a beautiful tribute to who he was and the fact that Kim chose him as the person to represent him had an enormous impact on people who miss him, then the fact that Kim chose him as the right person to have this responsibility, was that he nailed. I love it!!
Really good interview, any possibility of a "regular" RSS podcast or apple podcast link, I don't like having to go to different platforms for my podcasts, it's one of the things that annoys me about the Spotify exclusive ones, great interview though, I'm just starting to experiment with digital sculpting and it's interesting to hear from a professional.
I remember crumbling into tears in my room when I found out he had passed. Even after 35 years as a professional artist, he taught me so much new information, I will always be grateful to youtube for allowing to to find him, and to him for so many incredibly insightful videos.
I can definitely respect him putting this out there and I agree that it very much points the finger to all artists who were ever inspired by Kim Jung Gi. He was an almost divine inspirational spirit of expression and creative freedom. It is our turn. Don’t let anything stop you.
he is so awesome , my role model in this industry , all i want is a tutorial full course from him for his workflow :( but he has none , and his anatomy studying idk one of the ppls i want a course from him , A whole course anatomy , etc.. he is unreal , also thank u , u too as well from best ppl
mm nah, he keeps saying he doesnt photogamet his faces. But I don t buy it, and all pro artists dont buy it. He s like all these "photorealistic" painters who claim they never trace, but never publish their path to likeness. He s not a "top" sculpt artist by any mean. He s a photorealistic renderer , which is quite easy nowadays. All his previous arnold renders were shitty, even for 8 years ago. On his KYGI video, YOU CAN SEE the photo gamet remesh -> low poly projected volume before details. His skills are at best the skills of a 2 years chara artist. I never understood the guys who lie about their skills. I mean, nobody would blame him if he was remeshing. But the fact that he lies takes him to the abyss of my esteem.
Ian Spriggs's work is what got me thinking about 3d graphics. Looking forward to watch.
This will be a great 63 minutes thank you for the interview!
Jhill is very cool thanks for the interview I'm waiting for BLU1304
absolutely insane... I thought that was a photograph at first
Im so excited for this. Dude I love your videos!!

lol I looked at the thumbnail and wondered, 'but why is there a picture of Kim Jung Gi?' until I hovered over and realized it was infact a model
Great interview, really interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Happy you enjoyed it
Did he create any Tutorials on his way/process of modelling these beautiful cgi artwork. Please let us know. 🙏

Idk but I got pwnisher same feeling to see you every time 😅
Holy shit! This guy's work is literally totally insane!
I wish Kim Jung Gi's family all the power they need. He and his impact on the art community will not be forgotten!

Unbelievable quality stuff.

Hossein Diba is Also called the GOAT of likeness sculpting

Hellyeah! The master has spoken!
His work is so good it's almost disheartening...
Ha I know what you mean
Any way we can get that powerpoint?
Goated collab 🙏
🙏
Which artists use excellent topology in their 3D models? :)
A true modern day master

kinda reminds me of the researchers from ts s4
Wow, thanks :)
You should have a conversation about true art versus a commodity...

I'm not sure I like this kind of art.
Find it too personal, and obsessive
These kinds of images do not speak to me at all.
