Jon - yeah I'd love to make a lobstrosity sometime :P the crimson king too.. in fact.. just about anything from DT!

polozad - first thing step is to get a nice clean normal map, then run it through crazybump to get different height map layers. then I take these and overlay them in the diffuse, along with an ambient occlusion pass baked in max.

this serves as a guide and base to start painting colour tones and any extra lighting. then I gradually detail it using various different brushes, and also photos. it's quite a gradual process and one of a lot of experimentation, but very easy once you get going

Been loving this guy for a while now... (the model not the guy); how many different materials are you using for him?
Obviously you've got diffuse, normal and spec, but is there anything else going on, like emmisive or schmancy sss-related stuff?

thanks again ! still wanna put together that video of him, will get around to it eventually

scudz - i used different settings of the xoliul shader for various parts, like the gun belts, hair and skin, nothing particularly fancy

uhh and photobucket has screwed me over and reduced the image quality so it's been blurred to shit, you can see the proper res ones on ZBC, and i'll upload them back onto here again in a bit

Most artistic game model I've seen. A lot of zbrush modelers do more detail, but they don't ever seem to be making them with the intention to animate, let alone run in real-time. Good job.
