Natalie Dormer - Margaery Tyrell
Margaery Tyrell from Game of Thrones (as played by Natalie Dormer.) There's lots of GOT fan art out there but I haven't really seen many attempts at this great character for some reason, so here's my effort!
Modelled in Zbrush, Maya and Mudbox (I tend to use Mudbox for precise final tweaks to the model, matching the model to multiple photos using the camera and image plane bookmarks) I use Texturing XYZ maps for initial pore/skin displacement and texture, Xgen for all hair, eyelashes, peach fuzz, fluff on clothes, etc. Also, I used Flipped Normal's excellent Eye Kit, with a few tweaks, for the eyes (surprisingly)
All rendered in Arnold on GPU, using the new Imagers for bloom, vignetting, colour balance etc. Hope you like it!
Some more different lighting tests

Here's a video of the scene running on my Looking Glass Portrait display. The screen uses lenticular technology to enable a 3 dimensional image to be displayed, with no glasses, no headset or headtracking needed.
