hi all!! ..remember me???...low poly girl model(XD.face)
ok here is a shop model for a game.
count==314 tris

@chanfan Arvid you soo coool ;) keep it up homes

hello folks! i'm a great fan of the pixelated lowpoly stuff out here.
im completely new into modeling and after doing 2 tutorials i started my first blender model.

276 tris per egg, 128x128 handpainted texture



by the way: how can i get it "slimy" in blender.. use a spec-map? does it work also with shader off?

@Karera, Haha thanks bro!

@Fearian, thanks! Yeah I know, the only places I added a bit of sagging is on the roof! The rest is straight and sturdy, the way it should be!

Disclaimer - I made this model after learning modelling for 3 days.

It's a Katamari version of my friend Dan. 192 tris.






Here is the model in action in my 3D engine - http://rumblesushi.com/katamari_baldwin.html

my imitation of one enemy from rayman 3 still need to finish hands and weapon


197 ver
579 tri
tex 128x64

Nice Katamari dude rumblesushi. And thats a nice character you got going there Lionx_Dagger, nice clean textures.

Hey all. Very inspirational stuff in this thread.
These are my first models ever. Did them in blender.

I saw this thread and felt inspired to try something, so I'm attempting a quite low-poly of a somewhat stylized Miles Edgeworth. Texture is next, so hopefully I pull it off...

(Had to actually do this twice, as the first time I had just about finished the modelling, accidentally tripped my power filter, and learned my save, and its autobacks were corrupt)

Here's my motorbike all painted up. I've got a 256 on the bike and 128 on the tires. The texture is just about done. A couple areas still need some love and I'm not sure how I feel on the spokes I may retexture them.

illadam: your motorbike is awesome! looks so detailed for so few polys!

Your motorbike came out really nice! But I think you may add some light effects to the chassis, just like you did with that box under the seat. You should try to add more "volume" to the texture!

Argh, now I notice... Where is the chain? :O

Illadam, that bike is looking pretty cool. But I agree that you should try and add more lighting to the textures, also the exhaust pipe is a bit bland at the moment. On motorbikes the exhaust at the end is sort of a burnt blue to it.

Thanks for the crits! I'll see what I can do about giving it some more volume. I didn't even realize I forgot the chain haha! I may need to add another poly because the swing arm is mirrored unless anyone knows some tricks. I've actually been working on the exhaust but I'll add some blues in there too. Right now I am doing a grundge pass on the engine and exhaust.

I need crit please, obviously a wip

The second character for our iphone game. Same specs:
polycount: under 300 tris
texture: 256x256

Hope you like it and any c&c welcome. In this one i tried to apply some tips i received with the first one.

Awesome texturing, the watermark is a bit much, you could delete every other row.

watermarks are something from the past, when UV mapping was not really present and because of that every texture or UV was a single square- like a square of bricks. Adding watermarks on unwrapped textures these days is kinda silly because it is useless without the mesh and its UV coordinates especially with a complex object like a character.

I must say though very nice texture work

nobunny, Very good texture!!! I realy like it! ;)

I dunno about that, didn't someone rip off a bunch of texture areas from one of Bobo's models a while ago? Some snake like thing that was all unwrapped like normal?

I think it isn't a bad idea to do it on low poly work, it just doesn't need to be that dense.

Yeah, I would do it too if I were pimping something I plan to sell. Usually though I don't mind if someone uses my textures, so long as they ask first.

looks like a cool character! I don't really get why the checker pattern is so weird though.. it looks like he knitted it himself, but he used only 2 materials, and he doesn't look like the kind of guy who would be able to see that is cool. basically what I mean is: i'd make it either more checker-like, or more self-knitted like as if he put on some custom pieces of cloth.
I really like the texturing on the face so far.

Thanks everybody.

As for the watermark, like i said in my first post, this character along with the others that will follow, will be used in a commercial project, so call me paranoid but the watermark will stay :P . I was witness to some theft at some companies i worked for, and i must confess you never take it too serious until you experience it first hand.

On the other hand, i think this discussion is degenerating, we should stay on topic, that is low poly art.

@ Japhir: I didn't think too much on that subject, i just tried to make something that looks cool . It should look self-knitted because he is part of a community that is not too technologically advanced. As for the custom pieces, i might do another pass on all the characters once they are all finished. Right now i didn't put too much effort into that because of time constraints. It's a bit tricky to get it right because the uvs are in mirror.

Very impressive for under 300 polys, without a doubt. I would have guessed more, without seeing the wireframe.
