Gabriel Soares is a Brazilian conceptual artist who specializes in 3D modeling. Soares’ expertise are pop culture characters, which he designs in his recognizable style and then turns into 3D models.
Soares starts his process by making a sketch of the pop culture character that will serve as his model. This can be some musicians like Freddy Mercury, superheros like Thor, or even a social media star like TikToker Khaby Lame. All of his models are easily recognizable but have a somewhat cartoonish appearance to them that makes them surprisingly charming.
After deciding on the design and finishing the sketch, Soares transfers it to a 3D computer model using the software. The last step is bringing the 3D model to life using a 3D printer and putting the finishing touches like paint.
Thanks to his exceptional work, Soares drew the attention of various high-profile brands. He collaborated with Ubisoft, Netflix, Warner Bros, Nickelodeon, and many other famous companies. Even movie stars like Jack Black are fans of his works.
Soares regularly shares his newest creations on his Instagram profile, where he has 638K followers and counting. Continue scrolling to check out some of our favorite works by this highly talented artist.
