Oh man, baking those ribbons looks like they would be a nightmare, lookin' awesome Swizzle.

Did some sketching this evening!

cheers scudz and jramauri!

diggin the character swizzle, good distribution of details / shapes. Helmet?

excellent heads vorge, love the polypaint

another doodle from the other day... maybe thinking about turning it into a full monster character... probably not

Looking good! Not sure what engine you are using, but you might try a dirt or decal pass to help hide some of the tiling. If you are doing this in UDK you could do some vertex painting to help with this as well.

Holy shit Swizzle, the body is great but the face is just awesome. How many triangles?

Fucking great work, guys!]

Here's some (progress?) WIPs of my witch.

Swizzle - i love that character. He's got a nice semi-cartoony feel to his face, a bit like Rage.

A piece im doing in school for my portfolio. Comments and critics is very welcome.



A penny for your thoughts

Finally had the time to play a bit with nDo
Need to make more of these .
Practice practice practice

ferg: awesome x2

@bertmac

Can't wait to get my taxes... nDo2 will be mine! xD

What do you think of it so far?

Also, don't be afraid to take some giant screen grabs from Marmoset and post those... I wanna see some of those small det's ^^

Vorge, your sketches are tight little pieces of deliciousness.

Oskar, since you asked for crits, here's something... There seems to be a slight problem of scale with the different elements you've picked to build the bot. The parts that make up the back definitely look like they should be much larger. A portable radio is a certain size, and so is an oldy time camera. Both of those things are smaller, in most cases, than the honking big pieces of computer equipment you have there.

I'm working on the textures for this cinematic moped : any crits at this stage? it's just a viewport grab by the way, diffuse/basic spec only.

Sure, this is a fairly old looking ride here. Could you ding it up some? It's shaped, right now, like a brand new scooter, even though it's very rusty and a little scratched up. Maybe some crumpled edges, something, I don't know...

as always ... amazing works !

just finished my artwork of xiaoyu

Skin test in UDK.

Thanks Rogue One, I'll make a thread over the weekend.

great work man.

One thing I'd like to outline are the carpets.

1) u've got 2 identical carpets, but one is just non-uniformly 2x scaled revealing the squashed texture. It's a bad thing to do because the eye can easilty spot not only deformed texture, but also the same texture pattern near by in another carpet with different proportions.

2) it would be subtle, but having some folds would work nice for the carpets.

keep it up!

Werry intresting pice, i really like it the only thing i could suggest would be to maybet play around some with the textures for the back part to make it look more like metal as that waht im guessing it is.

Hey guys, I'm new here, but I thought I would post up a bust sculpt I did in zbrush. The concept is a mix between an angler fish/eel, and a space marine. I wanted to give him a cool story to him, so I ripped off one of his fins and attached a medical apparatus that part of him to keep him healthy.

Thanks, I agree with you !
I will keep these advices for my future work !

I just finished making my character. Yay!

Vorge:
The ribbony bits were a pain in the ass to optimize and UV, but the hardest part to bake so far has actually been the cuirass. Getting the belt and straps and whatnot to actually be visible without weird distortion was a bit of a challenge. I'm sure the boots are going to give me some trouble as well.

Ferg:
I'm not quite sure if I want to give him a helmet yet, but if I do it'll probably resemble a conquistador helmet or something along those lines.

t4paN:
It's at about 16,500 tris, give or take a few hundred. I still have some optimization to do.

St4lis:
I actually based the larger shapes off of Brink concept art, but I can certainly see the Rage look in there as well.

Koola: Sweet stuff man

Here is a practice texture:

Ferg, Swizzle: i'm in awe of your mad skills
Skyerzz: really nice hard-surface armor! the tail looks weird, tho.

I wish I knew more about hi-poly hard-surface modeling. here's a poopy sci-fi helmet.




and here's my wip thread for more poop: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=93823
