It will be a full character biz, and I plan on rigging him and doing a little idle animation for him so he can stand there and look bored inside Unity during the exam.
What exactly is Dieselpunk? I'm familiar with Steampunk and Cyberpunk, but never heard of the Diesel variety. Is it just like Post Apocalypse machinery?
Steampunk = shit runs on steam.
Dieselpunk = shit runs on diesel, the style is often a little more 1950s -1970s muscle car-esk, gear head stuff with a slant toward retro futurism but it can be used for just about anything punk-ish that runs on gas.
Great work and great ref how could this go wrong? I like the style of your guy, are you going to make a nice little bloated air ship for him? coz that would be killer. I am looking forward to your next update.
As for the target tri count, I think imma aim a lot bit higher than I usually do, and aim for something in the ballpark of 10.000 tri's. That should be the generic current gen budget if I am not mistaken?
Sorry for the weak update. Am currently stabbing my stylus into tablet in reckless abandon trying to achieve convincing folds. This is the progress on the third try:
But I guess frustration is an indicator for where you need to learn. If only my 3d.sk subscription worked, haha..
Please do tell me if its passable so far, I think I have stared myself blind at it at this point..
doooooope update
looks sick man. Needs more crotch/waist folds imo ^^
And some of the folds around are lookin a little pillowy/soft/inflatey, little bit of tightening seems like it'd fit the material a bit more but dunno dude ^^;
turnin out awsomes, especially dig the details on the pockets and collar :poly142:
Hi there! I'm new and saw that someone asked what dieselpunk i and thought I'd give my 2 cents. Dieselpunk and steampunk are only really alike in that they are alternate history science fiction that revolves around tech that wasn't available at the time. Dieselpunk is actually closer to cyberpunk in theme and atmosphere. It's basically cyberpunk seen through a pulp sci fi filter. It's set in 1920 to 1950 and employs a lot of the old pulp settings. The alternate history sci fi that's set in 1950-1980 is atomicpunk.
Some good examples are- BioShock is dieselpunk, and Fallout 3 is atomicpunk.

nothin to really crit yet, should be awsome once you get the full body blocked in there too
Dig the style

@Duncan, for now, no airship unfortunately, maybe at some point down the line.

Things to fix so far:

I think I might finally be done with blocking out the folds on the legs:
In any case it has taken way too long, so I'll be moving on to arms and torso tomorrow..
dig the fabric pattern on the front of the lower legs too.
lookin forward to the rest of the outfit (soo much clothing folds ^^; )

You are definitely right about the crotch/waist area, I'll look into that
Gloves are done:
Now onto folding his crotch :O
For shits and giggles:
On a more serious note, this is looking awesome!

if id pick on anything, its make the shoes slightly higher (thicker soles, and more room for toes)
