SpongeBob's Smug Smirk Reimagined in 3D With Blender

Ümral Ismayilov, a Character Artist and Motion Designer known for his detailed 3D recreations of cartoon and video game characters, continues the series with a new awesome model inspired by the timeless classic – SpongeBob SquarePants.

Paying tribute to one of his favorite characters, Ümral has reimagined SpongeBob’s iconic smug smirk from the “You like Krabby Patties, don’t you Squidward?” scene, adding an extra layer of realism to the character’s appearance. To set up the model, the artist utilized his usual combination of ZBrush, Maya, Substance 3D Painter, and Blender.
