A Realistic Take on Aladdin's Jafar Created with Mudbox & Substance 3D Painter

The model is made by Peter Zoppi.

Have a look at this stunning realistic version of Jafar from Aladdin reimagined by Peter Zoppi, Lead Character Artist at Treyarch. The artist aimed to create "something realistic but also with a tiny bit of stylization to it". 

Jafar's head was sculpted in Mudbox, with detail work done in ZBrush. The hair was made in XGen, while Marvelous Designer was used for the clothes. Zoppi painted the textures in Mudbox and Substance 3D Painter and rendered the model with Arnold for Maya.
