View Full Version : Big Bad Boy (From a Fen Zhu concept)

Here's one of my first full modeled characters (I usually stop after doing the arms, or the head 'cause I don't like the overall look of the model). The concept is from Feng Zhu (http://www.artbyfeng.com) .
Here, It's been done in one day, and it's not textured... And I don't know if I'll do it, it's just for training :rolleyes: .
So, Any comments, advice, critic, or anything else, just say it.

Some proportions are off from the concept. I know how hard it is to work from only a perspective shot rather than front and side concept, but i was able to notice some proportional things right away:
bottom of boots are too short
lower legs and knees are too thin
muscles in arms aren't correct muscle shapes
shoulders/back are too wide and unnatural shape
waist is too thin

You are also getting some wierd hits in the surface in the groin area and the cloth wrinkles don't really look like cloth.
I'm really picking your model appart, but thats why its posted, right?
This is a great start, especially for one day of modeling, but why stop there? This model has potential and as long as its a SubDiv surface (or poly smoothed), why not add as much detail as possible.

I just noticed you have quite a few triangles......very bad for subdivisions. Always use quads. That is why you have those hits in the surface.

Thaks for the crits !!
Ok, that hurts :) but it's why this picture is here.
Anyway, I'll try to fix all that tomorrow (I've got enough of that for today :) ) :beer:
So so so... anymore comments or suggestions for the textures ? (I never never textured a Character... I'm sure this going to be funny)

Nice work, but I think there´s something wrong with his croach...

Strange... :)

Thanks all for you comments... really
- Jfrench : I'm going to get rid of all those triangles... or at least I'll try :)
- Are3D : Wow, Great Model, the details are impressive ! really good interpretation of feng work. I would really like to see it in an action pose, maybe even textured ?
- damon 579 : Here you can find Feng work here (http://www.artbyfeng.com)
- pacnavarro : Yes, I know, there IS a problem :) , The two legs arent' yet connected (independent meshes), and I think I'm going to add some wrinkles to the clothes (near the crotch).
