So what are you working on?

Quick normal map test

[thinsoldier]

squirreley, I'd have used lightbox instead of the popup window for full view images.

[SupRore]

Looks great, EQ. Ears look a bit odd to me, but I wouldn't really know if there's anything actually wrong with them.

For some reason I'm thinking Mark Hamill, although I guess that could just be my mind jumping to starwars after your last model.

comments please, want to finish it tomorrow...

[almighty_gir]

his ankles look like they are about to snap, and i would beef up his arm too.

[noritsune]

katzeimsack it's a nice piece overall, but in addition to almighty_gir's suggestions I'd say that the gold double-curly on his armguard feels a lot like a decorative cop-out. why not put some really REALLY ornate gold filigree there? something more interesting to see, as long as you're going to the trouble to bring it out in the normal map as well.

[/ QUOTE ]
That sounds like detail for the sake of detail to me. The smoothness and simplicity meshes well with the rest of the character. It would be jarring to see some intricate ornate design in that spot.

[CrazyButcher]

currently overhauling the normalmap support, which is currently quite buggy as it hasnt been tested for a long time...

gotta fix the visible "seams" next...

Still no direction for this character, really. I was thinking of making her into a space flight attendant a la 2001.

[hawken]

nice start on that lady. I'd "coca cola bottle" her body a bit though, she suffers from treetrunk torso at the moment. Hands are way to huge too. Keep it up! I love all that stuff (not to mention space channel 5 prt2 is my favorite game in history)

Something i did to learn the workflow on posing models after Zb pass. The anatomy is alot off on some places as i forgot all my books on university room during all summer vacations /images/graemlins/frown.gif... and the pose? it's my first pose!!!... yes, i know it's crap... and about being lowpoly, speedmodeling /images/graemlins/wink.gif

http://img315.imageshack.us/img315/8795/posenewwm0.jpg

[Johny]

fucking amazing vitor ! speechless :|

[noritsune]

Vitor the muscular definition is looking very nice but I think the overall figure is showing a lot of common errors: waist too low, neck too long, limbs too straight.

[Noonie]

Great beginning Vitor. Although I dont understand the low poly comment =) Are you going to texture it?

[nkoste]

Very nice Vitor. Fast model, ca. 800 tris with 256x256. He's getting armor, but I still need to texture the last bits.

http://www.n3d.dk/images/image_bucket/rig_wip2.jpg

[Johny]

weeeeee gay quakeman , the normal map could have came out better , i could have wasted more time in the diffuse etc ...its crap.

i promise that next time i normal map something it will come better. as usual , highpolygon is dysplayed at my temp folio...

http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/5721/quakemanap0.jpg

[Vitor]

Oh No! Johny!! when everyone thought the stupid glasses models were already out of date, you did it another time !

Now seriously, looks great. Ugly and gay, but i guess that was somehow your intention with it. I'd give him a few more polygons on the top of head/hair, as it makes him look too lowpoly. Loose a few polys on the neck as most of them don't give nothing to the silhueta (nao me saia a palavra em britanico /images/graemlins/wink.gif )

And thx people for the comments and critics on my model. I'm starting a new attemp at it now. Hope it gets better and more highpoly this time.

[killingpeople]

johny i think you've done exceptionally well with the dude's mouth and mustache. he looks tacky as all get out though, as you know /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[BoBo_the_seal]

That kicks so much ass Johny!

[Ramza24]

Johny >> very sharp stuff.. personally I'd lose the buttons on the face or change them to something more appropriate. And his hairline might be too far back.. he looks like he's got very little hair. Love the snarl..

Woah, Johny, nice work! The high poly sculpt on your portfolio is even cooler! /images/graemlins/shocked.gif I think the neck seems just a little bit too scrawny considering the size of the head.

[/ QUOTE ]

The walls are just a test bed for seeing models lit and in game, ignore those. I think my main problem with it is that the model simply doesn't look like what I intended. I wanted a gothic stone support, and ended up with something that looked more like concrete with wierd painted trim. Secondly, the texture didn't work well with existing assets or at a distance as I'd focused more on detail than on large forms.

I've done some work on it since, and it now matches what I'm going for more closely. The fancy trim had to go though. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

hey adam, can I have a go of your super uv texture?

[BlackThief]

not as spectacular as your awesome zbrush sculps - here's my entry for the micro gameart challenge over at cgtalk. goal was to model a RTS vehicle with 1000tris + 512² texture within a week.

Wish I could have spent more time on both modelling and especially texturing, which I really had to rush in a few hours.

[ScoobyDoofus]

Ruz: I think he looks great, but not a great likeness of Vin Diesel. The nose &amp; lips appear far too large &amp; bulbous.

[Ruz]

hmm yeah, just seems he is quite tough to get right.
he seems to look slightly different in each photo.
actually though I thought that the big lips and nose were his main features, so i inflated them a little:)

[adam]

Vahl, the texture space for that particular area is rectangular:

rooster, huh?

thanx fellow smurf lovers. alright johny. i have to finish unwrapping him and i will.

[replicant77]

So I came across this comic Red Son:Superman. In it they have this bitchin revolutionary version of Batman. So reading it inspired me to model him. So here it is. Im pretty much finished up blocking in. Everything is very low detail at this point. What I would like to do is take it into ZBrush now. Ive said this before on here, Im have a very basic knowledge of Zbrush, If any of you guys that come on here from Los Angeles and surrounding areas, would ever like to meet up sometime and rap 3d that would be sweet. Also I am going to the ZBrush user group meeting at gnomon coming up this month, so hopefully some of you peeps will be there and I can meet some of you in the 3d community. So enough rambling from me, let me know what you all think. Thanks guys.

Dug up this mesh a day ago. Wanted to play around with some alpha stuff, so I made some kind of matrix transparant cyborg chick out of it x]
Tons of wasted polys right now, but I never intended for it to be transparant to begin with!
She weighs in at 1370 tris right now, which is quite a ton /images/graemlins/frown.gif

1x 256 color w/transparancy (body)
1x 64 color w/transparancy (fx)
Death to pixel filters!!

Wires and a playblast so that you can see some of that alpha stuff :P

[Zcubed]

Nothing too exciting, just trying to get some more natural forms and gestures into my characters. Here's a quick basemesh that I threw together a couple of nights ago. He feels a lot less rigid than my previous attempts, anyways.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v409/Zcubed/Basenewfinal.jpg

I think I'll work on my foundations for a while before doing more 3D. I keep trying to hide my craptastic drawing skills, but I don't think I'll be able to get any better at modeling without some serious 2D work. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

[ironbearxl]

That looks perfect zcubed, only crit is maybe his head is too small.

[Ferg]

zcubed: good idea... I made the same decision about a year ago. It's paid off in SPADES. SPADES I TELL YOU. I'm no rembrandt, but the progress I've made with my 2d has definitely helped my 3d, especially the anatomy. So much easier to practice anatomy in a sketchbook.

Here's my first "personal" model since I got hired at the studio that just shut down and laid me off. Wanted to see just how much I was stagnating there. Turns out, I was stagnating a lot.

Thanks for the inspirational words, Ferg/Hawken. Amazing how much progress you two have made in a few short years.

Hawken - Yeah, I see what you mean. I think it might just be the shading, but I'll take another look at the area.

Ironbear - Thanks a lot, though I'm quite sure it's not perfect /images/graemlins/crazy.gif. I've tried playing around with the size of the head and it skews the proportional look that I'm going for. Maybe I'm just not familiar enough with proportions to accurately assess that sort of thing. I'm not smart enough to work from reference, so it's very likely that you're on to something.

yo needed some high poly lovin, woot woot 4k of tris, my head is spinning.

decided to model with reflection map on ( its harsh cos any crap shading, edge loops shows up loads, really good for teaching how to get the focomplicated edgeloops/forms right.

[/ QUOTE ]

snake doesnt wear a bullet proof vest. its actually a thermal feedback outfit, designed to provide muscular, cardiovascular, and thermal support in the freezing cold temperatures he had to endure.

to all intent and purposes, snake starts his missions "naked", and has to acquire all weapons/armour on-site.

later in the game, you can find some body armour, and it looks much more like a kevlar vest, than what he wears to begin with.

it wont in the final rendering process, but i imagine it would help you out in the actual manipulation stages, since those are rendered in realtime.

I swear half of you guys on here put your normal maps in the bump map slot before rendering. Vitor, the hipoly rocks, give it the normal map it deserves. Low and hi should look approximately the same, which isn't the case with your spawn

[J.I. Styles]

"Couldn't get xnormal to work well so had to cut in the sourcemesh subdivions to get it into Max"

use poly crunch and then import with the hidden layer trick to get it in max - if that fails, cut it into chunks. It's an absolutely awesome piece, we're all dying to see this guy get the love it deserves /images/graemlins/smile.gif

EricElwell: Your stuff is getting a lot better. I love the colors and some of the details. But you should really try backing off of the dodge and burn tools. They seem to be a bit counter productive. Try painting all your shadows and hilights with straight color.
