W.I.P's For Everyone.

Just a little sculpting in Zbrush.


Maybe I could turn him into whole real-time character later. I already did some normal maps test on lowest subdiv. level and it came out very nicely.

And a progress GIF, just in case anyone would like to see it:

Solid likeness there Ghost. Great work

[poopipe]

yes,

that head's very close indeed - i recognised him without reading the name which is pretty damn good going.

I wonder whether the body wants to be a bit bulkier though - memory* says his uniform was quite a tight fit in the movie.




* a memory which is far from infallible

Just picking up the missing pieces in learning shading networks, hypershade, ect...thought this was interesting. I figure the spots a bit to hot, but I like it just the same.

Ghost-D: That's some cool sculpting, man!

Trying to model some monster in spirit of halloween

looking good, don't squeeze the trigger

...here's a further along version of the realtime web model viewer (this time using the Shadow Queen model from awhile back);
now has buttons to swap between wire, flat, and textured model:

**double-clicking the buttons seems to work better**

i got a bit of time to work on my failed entry for the survivor comp.

This has been without any doubt the most awkward and unreasonable bake I have ever had the displeasure of being involved with - I won't go into details beyond saying that I had this chopped into something like 100 parts and used 4 different methods of baking normals to get it done. There's still fixes to make (distortion around the boot straps and bad smoothing on the holster in particular) but I can hack those with photoshop


anyways, I ditched the competition spec when I realised for certain the whole lot wasn't going to fit on one 2048 map, there's a 2048 for the body, 1024 for the backpack and 1024 for the gun at the moment (all perfetly reasonable given her obvious importance in the game world).
We're at 10k (and 11) tris.

I'm hoping to pop the buckles out with the diffuse, if that doesn't work I'm going to have to model them in. I'll post again if I ever finish it

[BiG ToE-3DT]

would like to see this with at least some basic colors dropped on.

Joseph Pomeisl: the only thing that stands out, it's a bit on the dark side in the flat view. But then that could just be my sorry excuses of a monitor.

[poopipe]

et voila!

the buckles looked rubbish so I made some more - its a few hundred extra polys but it was worth it

hmm, looks like I need to flip the green channel in the normals on some of those belts.

[Joseph Pomeisl]

liking that cloth color alot.

[poopipe]

I thought it was too strong but in the cold light of day and through the mist of man flu I'm warming to it.
I've learnt a lot of lessons from this one.

[Joseph Pomeisl]

any progress, poop?

[Perversonality]

Nice design there mate. Hope you are going to finish her off
