Thanks SaferDan and Aphexx!

@ Aphexx-- not at the moment, however a few people have suggested that I take it to full character, or grunge it up further with barnacles and sea life.. It was a project for school, so depending on what the teach wants me to do, I'll ask if I can push it further or if I have to move on to something new..

Hello guys, I'm new here, I stumbled upon this site quite a few times before and finally decided to sign up)
I've been modeling for around four years but haven't made any significant progress (mostly due to the fact that I'm lazy and I lose interest quite fast), but not long ago I picked it up seriously and I've been working on a few things, one of them is my first (more or less) decent character model, which I would like to show you guys))
(Please don't kill me I know I'm horrible )




Still haven't figured out facial modelling, sorry)

Agreed! That is lovely. Superb texturing there. Loving those different metals.

Starting a character painting

@jmiles - Nice job on that helmet, it looks great!

WIP Katana

Blender 2.57
The blade needs some work.

Alien Quickie...

edit: nevermind, posted in the wrong place. Starting a new character, but need crits on the proportions, I'm not really happy with where it is going.

It's a crate!!

Did you do any 'post' work to it or is that just a cool matcap?

liked nick carvers sketch so much so i gave it a try in 3d - meant this one http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yUzM1G7fiS...0/badbbot1.jpg

A building from a student project that fizzled out. A number of textures are placeholder. I recently put in the ivy, hopefully I can get this portfolio worthy soon.

Nice one Gav, mind telling us what matcap you're using on that one?

kio: cute little tank.

This is an update of what I posted before. This is now in unreal and not a maya render. I have a proper uv2 on most of it with AO maps but there are a few pieces left to do. then it's on to texturing and mats and what'n.

m4dcow, That's amazing.
Mind showing some wires?

hei,
this is awesome.. I am waiting to see the textured version.

thanks

cool building doug! i see hours of placing wires and planks what was your reference?
CJE still a good crate perhaps some more dirt?

Scudz / Maphitron: Cheers guys, there's only a little post going on. I originally wanted to do a nice render or something but got lazy. Basically, a few mats (chav11 and sludge...I think) combined, colour corrected and a few gradients splashed here and there.

@Gav - Love that head sculpt! It's got a great sense of personality and wiseness behind those eyes.

I finished this gal up eventually. Not so much a WIP now so there's not much point posting it in this thread I guess

m4dcow - very nice! I don't really see any placeholder textures, they all look pretty sweet to me!

FAT_CAP - jeeeeeeeeeze...so nice, definitely main character/playable character worthy of any modern game!!

^ My character bases made from Blender 2.49. Supposed to be low-poly, to be laptop-friendly.

@DDuckworth- It's mainly the corner stone alpha texture, it's kind of blobby close up.
@Fwap- Here ya go

m4dcow@ Some nice grass and props and still piece will be a killer. I think it looks super!
