A man called Snok

First off I have to say I do not claim to be anywhere near the standard seen in so many projects here BUT what I can say I will not bow to the nonsense, lazy, lottery that AI is, I would rather practise till the day I die and feel actual satisfaction and accomplishment from what I create.
It seems I am destined to work with software that has run it's course. Lol
Here a practise sculpture made and textured in Sculptris. All the maps, albedo, specularity, SSS, hair distribution map and normals are hand painted.
Finally imported into Vue where the final texture is tweaked, adding an ecosystem of hair and final renders.
