Gorgeous 3D Take on Severus Snape with ZBrush & UE5

3D Character Artist Anton Komarov paid homage to the beloved Harry Potter franchise with this stunning portrait of Professor Severus Snape.

The creator masterfully recreated the appearance of talented Alan Rickman and crafted a highly realistic take on the character. The artist shared that Severus Snape is one of his all-time favorite characters from the Harry Potter universe, and the artwork is a tribute to Alan Rickman's iconic performance and emotional depth.

Anton Komarov briefly described his workflow and shared that sculpting was done in ZBrush, cloth was simulated in Marvelous Designer, and texturing was completed using Substance 3D Painter. The creator used XGen for generating hair and rendered the image in Unreal Engine 5.
