NICE loop btw

love the details of the armor...

well tbh after that killer high poly i was expetcing a bit more from your final model.
its cool and everything, but the diffuse and the render are a letdown.
a bit more then just flat color*AO would have inproved your model in a big way.
also its hard to make an asset shine on a white background.

hi goeddy! i appreciate your critic, you are 100% right. i would add that it would have been interesting to adjust the proportions to really fit the concept. this ist something that i will do with this character.

during the creation i ran into a common problem: texturing and rendering are the last steps, and my color/spec/gloss-texturing pipeline didn´t live up to the highres and i just didn´t have the time to get that right.

but i am so happy with the rigging and the animation, and all the tools that i have added to my pipeline (xnormal, topogun, marmoset and the mixamo tools) that it was quite a successful project for me.

will post some updates here sooner or later
