So what are you working on?

My humble update to the head I'm working on for my assassin character posted earlier in this thread.

really cool MoP! love the suface texture to him

[adam]

Wow, well down MoP. You've been producing some tight stuff lately. Keep this up dude, pleeaaaaase.

[bearkub]

MoP: is that the concept that Ocelot did a while back? It was called Shrig-Ag or somesuch. Only reason I ask is that I found that image laying in my polycount cottage or on my drive just recently.

[Daz]

MoP Zbrush MAD SKILLZ!!!

[MoP]

rooster, adam, daz: thanks! i didn't spend long enough trying to get the surface texture to match the form of the face and possible bone/muscle structure though... then again I only spent about 30-40 minutes in zbrush on it. Might give it another going-over later.
Bearkub: Nope, don't think I've seen that concept? This was from my version of a Protoss from starcraft. I drew the fairly poor concept that is seen earlier in this thread (and over on CGChat)...

[Josh_Singh]

mop your protoss is smokn'!

Trey using less dodge and burn and paint with colours instead.

[Crylar]

Actualy I don't use neather dodge or butn, but the colors are pretty pale.

Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind.

[MacD]

Still some rigging to and a lot of texture work (I don't like the eyes either /images/graemlins/smile.gif), but I think it's coming along nicely:

n30: sweeet! thats one badass hard bastard you got there, will you add any subtle colour variation? is that for a hl2 mod?

[Sean McBride]

Thanks. /images/graemlins/smile.gif I'm basicly done with the head. The clothing contrasts his armor so its not a monochrome piece. The whole thing goes well together. Also, the mask is simi-glosy so you'll get some of the color from the cube maps. Yes its for an hl2 mod. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[rooster]

thought I recognised him, I remember grabbing a load of your concept art guys work (on deviant I think). His stuff is extremely cool, looks like youre not wasting it /images/graemlins/wink.gif

That's a really good job Adam! I really like it, but it seems that your wood texture is still a little poor and flat, Try to use resident evil 1 or 0 to see their amazing work on wood surfaces, may help you ^_^.

I'm pretty sure thats what he ment since he said that he was getting ready started on his first model and that is already a completed model and skin :P.

SouL, fantastic as usual, the hair looks a little dull from this far back, maybe add some brighter highlights? I like how you have him in the re4 setup with the knife in his right hand :P, but I think you could up the detail on the knife personally. It just looks a bit dull and boring compared to the rest of the model, jsut my two cents tho. I know this is an old piece of yours, but it's nice to see you work on it again, it looks really good /images/graemlins/smile.gif.

[SouL]

Yeah... that bastard armpit. It's really unavoidable unless I were to add a bone to control the movement of the vest. Here's an all black version witha new knife that Eclipse proposed:

http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/cottages/souldesigns/hahaha3.jpghttp://www.planetquake.com/polycount/cottages/souldesigns/hahaha4.jpg

[MoP]

Excellent stuff Soul. The texture on his clothing is really excellent.
His flesh textures look really "dead" though, there's no saturation or colour variation there. Also I thing the overall flesh hue is too yellow, maybe try a little more red? Maybe that's just my monitor settings. Or yours!

[MacD]

Damn, Soul! I'm having so much trouble getting a pair of shoulders to deform even remotely like that and there you go with a 'the weighting sucks'! /images/graemlins/smile.gif BTW, is that a specular map goin' on or just good texturework?

Flachdrache: looking damn organic...is it a gib for when you blow someone up in Doom3 or something?

[flachdrache]

@Jgall21 - He and i was going to ask why a cheap copy and past if you can render it (doh:) but its a good work on the ref non the less /images/graemlins/smile.gif.

@Soul - damn nice skin ... and a rambo2 knife ?! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

@MacD - jepp, ment to be a stomache (gib). First i wanted to add a footprint, like someone walked over that thing :P but that would have been useless detail (model too small ingame).
My first steps in zBrush and this are the highpoly versions but normalmap looks like the same. After fixing the Uv i may be pimp the stuff i made for Nexuiz. -> /images/graemlins/cool.gif

well if hes blind on his right eye*he is blind right oO*maybe you should add a scar or something dunno just my idea ^^

Smo: biggest tip would be to adjust your color palette. The yellow highlights give him an unnatural skintone. More pink, less purple, more white less yellow.

[Sean McBride]

I always loved your stuff ror. /images/graemlins/smile.gif glad to see you going back and finishing this guy up!

[Daz]

Woa very aesthetically pleasing models Gauss and Ror.

Bags of character there JBoksma! Makes me think of Wind in the willows!

[Thegodzero]

Nice Ror, very nice.

Quick little scene made up of 3 256 textures. Have many more textures to go to finish the room up. Still very early WIP.
http://www.tgz3d.com/egyptren3.jpg

[rooster]

awesome ror, cant wait to see the texture /images/graemlins/smile.gif Dig the spurs! will he have a mount? /images/graemlins/wink.gif

[MoP]

LordScottish: Good /images/graemlins/wink.gif

JBoskma: Cool frog! You sure picked up modelling fast...

Rorshach: Very nice work, I like it a lot. The thick light lines you've got around the silhouette are kinda destroying the form in some of the lighter areas though, I think it'd look better just on a solid colour/gradient backdrop...
I'd be interested to see how his torso would bend/twist when animated... that armour looks pretty solid!
Really cool design though. He looks very sculpted and massive ... very "there", if you know what I mean.

TGZ: I'd say the black heiroglyphs are a little too cluttered and dark right now, lighten the blackness up a little to fade them some, and maybe space the glyphs further apart to avoid this "overcrowded" look that's going on at the moment... if you want to /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Lord Killmore]

@Rorshach:
looks damn nice like the desing of the chara and stuff but looking at it from a realistic point of view he isnt able to move since i dont see any parts that can be moved without killing himself ^^

[Kevin Johnstone]

Thanks for the replies.
He will have a number of land and airborne mounts.
You're right about the lighter rim spoiling appreciation of the arms, and aye, I expect the armour will do some nasty twisting ingame, but most of the mech designs I worked on professionally are worse so I didnt want to be held back too much by that.
He's meant to look like moving would cause him pain, Fomorians like to both give and take pain as they have nothing to do with realism at all.

I'm likewise excited to see him animated as he's the most fun I've had in ages.

[Steakhouse]

Rorshach: Oh sweet! Will he kill you if his nine atendants manage to crank his massive eyelid open?

All jokes aside your continual comments and work on celtic based concepts got me going on my own research and interpritation. As soon as I have something solid I'll be posting it.

[Kevin Johnstone]

Steak:heh, I actually considered having a pet demon there to crank open his eyelid but scrapped the idea as it would eat up polys and reduce his ability to look like he's in charge.
I plan to have one the Fomorians carrying a sawn off castle cannon that a pet demon reloads for him though, so the idea of an attendent found a new home

[flaagan]

started putzin about with this last night in xsi so i can say i've modelled *something* in the past while.. definitely like where it's going so i may take it farther..

A bit of an Update. Armour will be shiny, but somewhat distressed Bronze in UT, with envoronmental shaders. Flat color version because I cannot figure out how to render in Maya well, and I know what the shaders will look like in UT.

SO now it's time to rig him and get to work on the animations.

Scott

[-DN-]

So I found this mesh laying around in my HD I forgot to finish, She's supposed to be a base model that I can add to and scale for diffrent characters, based mostly on comic book style porportions... yes rather large chest and long legs. She's also built to fit the stock biped from epics female merc series... This isnt ideal but I wanted to leave it so she could fit on stock animations if I just wanted a rather fast turn around work flow of modeling and skinning for my personal practice, as well if I want to edit her more so I can build my own biped to match. The part that throws me since this is my first female model(Ive done lots of masculine models) is her upper torso looks a bit small.. not sure if its just me since im used to modelin riped male figures.

http://www.dennisnollen.com/blaa-design-3d.jpg
http://www.dennisnollen.com/blaa-design-3d2.jpg

Oh she weighs in around 1800 tris, she's not totaly optimized because I want to leave options open when I model more into the diffrent characters.

[jeffro]

Very nice Mop. I can already see that skin in Zbrush. That's going to be great. You should think about some sort of armor in his ankle area though. I think that could add to him.

[gauss]

Mop: good stuff, mate. what you may think about (and i'm sure you will once you get to the modeling stage) is giving that shoulder armor a bit more breathing room for rotatation and such. but i'm sure you had that in mind /images/graemlins/smile.gif i like the soft colors and without a doubt your 'classical' advancement is coming along nicely /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hey rooster , sorry man , i was trying to refer to firestarter ... but somhow in my crapness i got mixed up ...

all things said ,the colours! you have a nice model there .. can i see a concept? and wires? looking good ...

[pior]

Finally took the time to work on a base mesh /topology study.

Very bland at the moment, to be tweaked later!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v242/pior_ubb/basehead_wip2.jpg

[IceWolve]

Realy awesome helicopter concept flaagan, i realy love its design.

Looking good n30, is that for forsaken?

[JKMakowka]

@Pior:
Nice topology so far. But two things could be improved:
1. Outer corner of the eye, the upper eyelid doesn't go around into the lower eyelit like that in reallife (but lots of people get that wrong).
2. The 'wrinkle' that goes from the nose to the corner of the mouth might not be visible that much on younger faces, but with your topology setup in that region it will be hard to do if you plan to model a head with it later.

[Neo_God]

Looks pretty nice Mop, though I can help but think the feet are too small. Maybe it's just the perspective though.

n30, that looks good! The wrinkles at the crotch look a tad muddy though

MikeF, it's looking a little flat, though feet look way too small, they should be the length of the forearem. Are you going to add a chest plate?

Here's a small update:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v305/Neo_God/3d%20work/BeatrixShot2.jpg
I worked with the proportions a bit, it's not too realistic at the moment, though I'm unsure if I want stylized or realistic. I'm also thinking of adding some wires coming out of the thigh stumps and wrap around the mechanical legs.

Oh yeah, Nealb4me, the concept looks very far from this. The concept was merely a doodle I did during a class. The only similar things are the female torso, and the idea the legs are pointed.

[CheapAlert]

http://www.planetgargoyle.com/nf19.jpg

[Sectaurs]

fantastic stuff, people. here's an update from me:

Concept [edit: not drawn by me]
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v192/Sectaurs/Pimpage/tKinan_Mateo_Concept.jpg

Quickly posed models
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v192/Sectaurs/Pimpage/Kinan_Mateo.jpg

lots more texture work to do on them, and i've been told to add more loops in the tail for smoother bending.

[pior]

JKM, thanks for pointing these. I agree about the eye corner... I was thinking that the top one has to overlap, then check mine and notice it was more like on the model. Then I double check the day after and clearly saw that my observation was wrong, mainly because I was checking from a front view only /images/graemlins/smile.gif Now it's fixed /images/graemlins/smile.gif

About the wrinkle/loops arond the mouth... Well this model is just a base to work from, hence I thought it could be good to have these 'potential' wrinkles ready to go, instead of having to redirect loops on a later model variation which is always a pain. But maybe I went to far... Still have to test this out. And maybe I need to change the topology angle here... Will see.


THanks for the input! Ears are done, it was great fun to model them /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Thegodzero]

I liked your high poly head pior so i thought id give it a try.

Been adressing the points JKM pointed out, but I just noticed that the back of the head is too small... Anyways, from a topological point of view it's more or less done I think. Now time for crazy variants, some realistic, some not /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Holy hell arsh! Nice work!

[qubism]

that is one detailed mesh. u should think about the head tho
i think the character of it looks ... weird in a weird way

[Gmanx]

Wow, Arsh....nise trapezius and shoulder girdle. Always a difficult area this - changes LOTS with flexion. I would pop out the bottom of the blade group a little more but, hey, whaddoo I know?

[Thermidor]

Nice topology arsh, the shoulders rock !
not so keep on his belly button tho, but they seem to differ so greatly from person to person , its probly just me.

[arshlevon]

thanks.. i actually feel like the trapezius is a bit over exaggeratted but i havnet really worked up the neck area yet either.. next is the legs.. dumb girl friend is comming into town this weekend so i doubt i will get to work on him untill next week...booo

[JKMakowka]

Wow not bad.... saved in my inspriration folder /images/graemlins/laugh.gif

A small nitpick would be his buttcheeks, the muscles of them are kind of diagonal in reality, which could be represented in the mesh also.

[pior]

Turning fatty... A very rough and quickly made variant to test things out. Time for further detailling and polishing now!

When i get all the gold work done i'll corect the color of it, to more of a brown. Or so i hope...

[MoP]

Daedalus: Cool, i love your creature designs, and the start on the texture is good. A friend of mine is using the Cipher engine too for a game he's making, I'm doing some models for him - is the engine good and easy to work with from an artist's point of view?

TGZ: Are you using Rorshach's recent Balor (sp?) model for reference for this, TGZ? The chestplate design looks awfully familiar...

Also why are there little white highlights around every edge of the gold hardware where it's adjacent to the grey metal? Looks kinda weird...
Yeah, I'd use less saturation and make the highlights more white/brown rather than bright saturated yellow, that will make it look more like gold.
Good work so far though.

Nope, but it's going to. In the meanwhile you could use Q3Fusion (Q2 hacked to death to support q3a stuff), Darkplaces Q1 (Very advanced with perpixel lighting), or FTE Quakeworld (another q1 engine, but supports q2 as well and it's one hell of a combo engine that also supports q3a stuff)

Deadalus: I thought "Gargoyle" was your first, I might still have the mesh around somewhere, there were some great skins for it, someone should get that guy ported to ut2k4 like he originally was :P

[Thegodzero]

Mop, i had the design for the cest plate before ror did, so it would more like he got it from me... Why the white lines, i started to do it at the start and just kept doing it to too many parts so now its too late to change.

Thermidor, something is bothering me about the area under that girl's eyes, it looks like the small eye bags wrap up around the entire eye. Her neck is also looking a bit small, but other than that, great stuff.

I'm really liking that Thegodzero, do you plan to put some gold trim on the helmet? Or is that included in with "Get all the gold work done"?

That's looking pretty nice Omar, sorta has a Vin Deisel vibe to him. Though the ears look a little too far back on the head, might want to check that out.

a 'monument stand' and an idea i had for a teleport pad for a hl2 level i'm working on for my senior project class... shading on the stand is texture-based for now, just so i can see the actual shape of the thing when i'm workin on it and get a rough idea of what textures look like when i try them out..

as for the chick: The head has a really big star point you might wanna get rid of. and i havnt done too many female characters, but i think the most important thing is subtly. to me, the arms and legs could look a little more feminine. and the area around the boots looks really wierd. you may want to add some geometry detail and see if you can get that connection to flow better.

Good work Gauss, they look authentic /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Nice work Thermidor too, I see your rendering is working nicely now /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Careful not to make the whole scene too bright though, it might look nicer if you have a more obvious single light source, with some subtler underlighting and backlighting, rather than brightness coming from everywhere.

Full of wonder and mystery

Still working on this - my first semi-realistic hi-poly head. First time for skin shaders as well, so I've spent a little while tweaking to get to here. Learning a lot though. The texture maps are too small to go this close really, but I wanted to see if the lips were working. There are still too few eyelashes, and they're too regular, and I haven't started on Maya fur eyebrows yet.

Awesome Daz. Remind me to steal your brain someday. Mind you, the belly button looks a bit too low in the midriff?

Nice DAZ, looks like your painting from way back when of the red demon. Is that what your making him into?

Looks like that red demon like painting that you did a while back. Love it! Hands look great. Nice and meaty. With the new influx of all these highpoly models i'm going to have to start practicing. Its very inspirational /images/graemlins/smile.gif Can't wait to see more.

Daz: Thanks, one of his eyes is a cataract on it. Thats why its blueish. /images/graemlins/smile.gif Missed the comment the first time around!

Paul: Awesome. Looking foward to it! Last time you skinned one of my player models I think it was the first one I ever did. /images/graemlins/wink.gif I did base my character on Ian McKellen as gandalf but decided I wanted to create my own wizard character.

Therm: I just don't like the way it looks, the result would look more like FLCL's Canti than what I was aiming for. The concept didn't work the way I wanted so it's back to the drawing board.

hey Gzero: for the metal, are you underlaying some reference pic for texture and grit, or did you hand paint it all?

im about to start some metal-areas on my char and just wondering how to do it.

[Sectaurs]

blah.

Tried my hand at an art-test for Dissonance. Failed to notice the specs changed twice since I had started and submitted. They didn't go for it, but it was good practice for me, as my texturing skills need work. 1 evening to model, two to texture. 2100 tris and a 512

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v192/Sectaurs/Pimpage/bleh.jpg

[Badge]

you failed to meet their specifications? it looks pretty good, but not necessarily realistic. poly count seems a tad high though, but that just may be me.

[Sectaurs]

they upped the polycount quite a bit (its now 3000-3250 up from 2000-2250) after re-evaluating their engine. about the non-realism, that was mentioned in the reply i got from them. i tried to make it realistic, but just goes to show i need to practice more /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[rawkstar]

hey DaZ, love the anatomy study, awesome hands arms and head. Can't wait to see this develop.

[poopinmymouth]

Nice one Dazzles. I agree with mop about the naval though. And his pecs are too cartoony. They stay the same thickness and pinch all the way around. Give them a bit of meet and roundness where the nipple is on the curve. They are normally a bit more square than you currently have them.

[Thegodzero]

badge, Some of the grit is from a three part texture overlay to make it not so clean. But the grit is just pictures of diffrent types of dirt.

[Daz]

Played with this some more tonight. Yeah TGZ, looks like Im turning him into that Demon I think. Fixed the cartoony pecs. Still working on abs of course. Therm, no he aint rigged. Im taking some creative license with the pose. The navel is actually the right height. It's just an optical illusion 'cos his lower belly is sticking out and the crotch isn't pulled down low enough yet.

some more texturin on the monument, and a 'light post' for the walkways that'll be on the level.. gonna look into whether i can do the effects i want to put in the space between the sections within hl2's engine or if i should just add some polies and texture in a surface (hoping for the former).

Bloody hell, daz. I love to see that zbrush hasn't made everybody shy away from good clean old-fashioned polymodeling. Technical issues aside, I very much look forward to seeing this completed. This is so appealing to me.. the little folds of flesh, the twist of the brachioradialis, the subtle definition of chest muscles... man, it makes me giddy like a schoolgirl

Looking great Daz, would mind posting a shot of the low poly cage wires?

[rawkstar]

looks cool man, the monster thing would have probably taken 1/10th the time u spent on it if u did it in zbrush, but I can understand why u'd want to model it all up in max. looks cool.

the chick is cool too, nice nipples. the eyes may be a little too big/too wide apart, hard to say though, maybe shape up the eyelid a little more? it just looks like 2 spheres bulging out of her face. nice model tho.

[MoP]

Awesome woman there Shadows.
The monster is good too, I love the arms, but the face's detail seems fairly random and doesn't show much structure IMHO. Nice how you set it up with the materials, it almost looks like a Zbrush model.

[Sean McBride]

Welcome back shadows! /images/graemlins/laugh.gif Great stuff! I love the attention to detail on the monsters head/arms. He's got breasticles too ;D

[Daz]

Shadows: I'll show you mine If you show me yours ;-)

Fantastic stuff mate. She's got a very realistic look to her. Only stuff Im not sure about are the fake boobs and the clavicle. Will post some wires when I get home later!

[iMag]

Shadow: To be honest I don't like the monster in it's current form. those "tits" look really out of place. like you took them from the chick and merged them with the beast. a big beast like that should have breasts that compliment the overal look.

[shadows]

mr_Rockstar : Yea that's what I wish I would have done, the wire is getting quite messy,heh.
And you're right the eyes are to far apart.

MoP : Some of those random lumps and alot of them are random , hehe, will be removed. Mainly the ones inbetween the eyes and the roll of fat on the neck.

n30g3n3s1s : "He's got breasticles too" lol and they are going to be hairy too. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Daz : hehe here you go /images/graemlins/smile.gif
Jayden wire (http://www.stevensart.com/temp/WIP/project_baby_soup/Jayden-wire.jpg)
Sibup wire (http://www.stevensart.com/temp/WIP/project_baby_soup/sibup5-wire.jpg), quite messy but I guess it would do the job for normal mapping.
The boobs need some touch ups they are supposed to be natural, I think I just need to soften up the transition between the top part of the breast and the torso and maybe getting rid of some of that canyon :P. The clavicle and the neck muscle needs some work aswell.

[Downsizer]

Daz:

That very much resembles a race of beings from a prototype game I'm developing, that Robert Cirrilo concepted for the project:

http://cyrob.com/Project_X/Pics/X_113_L.jpg
http://cyrob.com/Project_X/Pics/X_106_L.jpg

Great work on the model. I hope similarities wont be too bad on the finished peices. If you are turning him into the red demon then no worries, ours have a crustation like shader for skin textures.

Then again, I've been seeing more and more similar concepts and mdoels lately. Guess I need to get cracking.

[Daz]

Nice shadows. About the same density as I tend to get to I think. Yeah i think you're right about the boobs. It's where they transition into the body at the top and the outer sides that makes them look silicon. Wire: http://home.comcast.net/~dpattenden/images/wire.jpg

Cool Downsizer. Hadn't seen those before. Yeah my fellow was based on that Demon sketch I did ages ago. He's a lot leaner than your guy I think. I wouldn't worry about him looking too similiar. My model is early days. It's just a bare muscular torso and a head without a mouth. Oh, I guess that's pretty similiar ;-)

awesome DamienB. his nose should move/flare a little, right?

[rawkstar]

lol MAN thats evil!

awesome looking shit dude /images/graemlins/smile.gif post some wires

[Renaud Galand]

DamienB : looking good. I think the nostril moves a little bit too. I'd reduce the strength of the smile, it's a little weird to see this men smiles like that. But yeah, like Vitaliy says, it can be EVIL /images/graemlins/crazy.gif

[poopinmymouth]

Holy poopinmymouth batman! That looks amazing Damien. Like Rockstar said, make with the wires!

[-DN-]

n1 damien, he has that dead look like "you dont want none of this shizz" while still giving a lot of life to the character himself. I agree the nose is a bit wanky, would like to see alittle more definition around his adams apple but minor gripes.

copy and paste it, how can it improve?

[JKMakowka]

@ fuse: the upper legs are a bit short, otherwise a really good start.

[Spajsat]

heh DamienB thats looking awsome although i wouldnt call that a smile but more of an evil Grin /images/graemlins/wink.gif.. none the less lookin great.
as for crits what the others said about the nostrills and we want those wires.

[Fuse]

thanks guys i really appreciate the feedback .. this is very much a learning process for me right now ..

you guys inspire me and hearing good words from people like Daz really means a lot ..

@JKMakowka: i dont think the upper legs are short but i will see about tweaking it ... from the front view the proportions seem to be allright .. maybe it's the angle in the perspective

Working on a mech for a project im doing with some colleages. The concept was the heavy type, but im now making a normal version on which i can build for other mechs. Its getting a little different from the concept though. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

wicked DamienB

[JKim3]

Looks cool, DamienB. Question, though. Are the teeth intentional? Like, all same size, and way too many visible. It really adds to the creepy look of the last smile, so that's why I'm wondering.
