Grand Space Opera 3D Entry: Jorge Lescale Muciño

[rattlesnake]

TKraccoon: thanx for your words...im happy to read those very nice words!!:love:


flyingP,JamesMK: i think both suggestions will work very good...thanx a lot for the support mates!!

[JamesMK]

does not mean that I know what I am talking about though :wise:
No, but your blind guesswork sounds more realistic than mine :D

[artemesia66]

First time on this thread. Your stuff is great. Can't wait to see where you're going. :applause:

[flyingP]

No, but your blind guesswork sounds more realistic than mine :D

that's because I have cleaned my ears :wise: :argh:

[flyingP]

that's because I have cleaned my ears :wise: :argh:
(it's an in joke)

[claudiojordao]

Yeah! Looking very very good rattlesnake.

If I might suggest something... what about some light arrows like that "thing" in his head?!!!

Great job my friend!

[essencedesign]

Stunned when I opened your thread to see that archer....you have been working some long hours I see....well ...the results are just great....Inspiring to ME :thumbsup: ;)

[3dRaven]

Rattlesnake your entry is looking great. Nice style you got going for you there. Really like the ships. They have a little starcraft feel to em (which is a good thing). Love the amount of details in them.
Have you thought about adding some normal mapping to them if you computer starts crunching?

Nice character design too. I'll be watching this thread 4 sure :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

artemesia66: thank u ..is always nice to hears good comments from a talented artist...thanx!:love:

flyingP, James: thanx guys...your help really helped!

claudio_jordao: thanx man...and your suggestion is very good one...i will do that ...thanx


essencedesign:thanx :bowdown:...

3dRaven: nice to see you here man!!....great advice about normal mapping...i will do that sir...thanx for visiting!!!

the second man with a bow...im going to try to put four or five warriors on my scene...and two elite soldiers from the other tribe...figthing in the scene...and in the top of them a bunch of aero fichting with ships...thats the main idea of the compo

[rattlesnake]

ficthing: means....fighting...lol!!

[rattlesnake]

oh...i didnt made any changes to the first warrior yet...but thats the next step...

[Lemog]

Nothing to crit... that's only great for me... :thumbsup:

[Versiden]

man, the possiblities are endles.. you're going to have alot of fun with your characters...

nothing to crit - keep it up

[terraarc]

Man those warriors have some attitude!:thumbsup:

Waiting for some in scene action of them...:bounce:

Waiting for more like this guy!

[adonihs]

hot damn that looks great, awesome character design =]

heres a closer look to the warrior on the back...i make some changes to the makeup..c&c welcome :)

[DimitrisLiatsos]

Very nice ...he has that look..


"Are u talking to me ..ah? ...are u talking to me punk?" :scream: :scream:


:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[JamesMK]

Looking very good :thumbsup: The version with the slightly brighter skin looks a lot more alive now - don't know if there are other differences besides texture color, but if you could make the skin shader work the same on the darker version it would be great. Are you using some sort of SSS here or equivalent fake methods? That could make the skins kick at any rate... but the brighter one is very close, so I guess your well on your way to nail it.

Make-up looks good too. I suddenly got an idea that he would look cool with some kind of Maori like patterns, those swirly shapes used by native New Zeelanders... :shrug:

http://w1.695.telia.com/~u69502813/stuff/maori.jpg

Great character work, Jorge :applause:

[rattlesnake]

DimitrisLiatsos: :):twisted:

JamesMK: thanx James...can u explain me whats SSS?
and yes the only thing that i changed was the skin color...and some textures tweaks,,,hoping he looks like a different person....
i really lik the picture u send ...is an incredible cool idea...i will use those kind of makeup for the other warriors...thanx a lot sir!!:bowdown:

[JamesMK]

...can u explain me whats SSS?
SubSurface Scattering. I'm sure you know about it - quite important for materials containing lots of water, such as the human body, for internal light scattering in order to make the surface look alive. I don't know what 3D package you're using, but I'm sure there is some SSS available for most major apps.

[johnny3d]

good your work and your models are excelent:applause:, for end something progresive :thumbsup:

[overcontrast]

hey great character man... could use more detailing in the face texture... but it's all good.. u got nice imagination.. keep up the good works :thumbsup:

[greentek]

Very nice ...he has that look..
"Are u talking to me ..ah? ...are u talking to me punk?" :scream::scream:
lol.. i can only agree.. :D

outstanding work Jorge..! :thumbsup:
this archer guy really has a character..!
keep this great work going and the best of luck mate..! :beer:

[Deadlyforce]

Yeah the characters are really cool !
However I am wondering how you will put these guys in your scene assuming the proportions are huge (and your ships are, which is ok)...Unless you want to make a strong foreground to your picture with the warriors.

Anyway, I'm waiting for your updates, good luck !

PS : the Maori patterns are a good idea ! :thumbsup:

[Climax]

• Yeah man! looking good! maybe some war colos in his "hairdo" would do great also :thumbsup:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

There is nothing to say ...only to do..so i do it... :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Virtuoso]

I see the boys are back in town..........A nice group shot.Looks great Jorge.I see you are putting that rig job to real good use......:cool:

Whats to add to this very nice work?.................I think perhaps some extra scaling,some variation in size to the warriors,slight but perhaps a touch.Various symbols for each tribe member,showing a bit more diversity.........All in all I think you have done a wonderful job,hard work has paid off once again..........Always something of high calibur from you Jorge,always something with a unique twist,and always done in high gear.......and always done with passion,it shows in your work........:buttrock: :arteest:

[essencedesign]

Verrrry good sir........great poses...and nice choice in coloring for the clothing...those flags are a nice touch :applause: .....hey by the way...where'd you get your haT ;) :argh:

essencedesign: thanx frien...about the hat...i saw one on your avatar and i couldnt resist to put mine...so here is it....Merry x-mas to everyone...!!!:scream:

[essencedesign]

...really great work on your tribe man..top notch.. :applause:

[rattlesnake]

i want to find the store that sells chrismas hats for beasts...archers...angels...potatoes...and evereyone else that joins the club..
Lol...yeah that sounds interesting...:)

[Climax]

• WOW!...... TROOPS HAVE ARRIVED!!:scream:

• It will be great to see its combination with Hi-Tech Spaceships :bounce: It looks great as it is, maybe as virtuoso said, a bit more variation, but I guess time is running out, so my friend don't pay much attention to our requests and lets continue Rock and Rolling :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[Versiden]

looking good mate.. I like the symbols on the flag
very cool

crits: I think the lead archer guy should have his right hand palm facing towards his body, instead of facing towards the ground.

[JamesMK]

Looking REALLY GOOD! But I want slightly translucent flags though... Move on to the rest of the scene now - want to see what's cooking there :thumbsup:

[artemesia66]

Great work! Can't wait to see them in the scene. :thumbsup:

[Climax]

• Waiting for your next strike Jorge! It promise to be as impressive!:scream: :thumbsup: :bounce:

[ace4016]

Nice characters. Interesting type of characters for the space topic. I was wondering where you got your new avatar from (just join in on this thread). Can't wait to see your next updates.

[jddog]

No crits, I really like your work.

just a close up from the statue inside the temple...

[Virtuoso]

Hi Jorge........Nice work on the "Kinnah temple"........Looks well detailed and designed,nice shape and look.It will fit perfectly with your theme and characters/vessels........:thumbsup:

I have always been a fan of statues,they say so much of a place and period of time........nice touch on this as well........really nice going once again,and it's great to see you back in action here where you belong........Again very nice work and additions to your Opera Jorge,keep at it as you are........:buttrock: :arteest:

[YasushAzush]

:) :thumbsup:

[Lemog]

Yep... perfect man... just one detail... at left, the cloth (cape) appear a bit to thin... not easy to do something like that in stone... of maybe I do a mistake cause the light... :D

Anyway... I adore your temple... I'm in hurry to see the continuation... very good job my friend ! :thumbsup:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

I was just looking all you posts in your challenge page...top work man...top work :bounce: :bounce: ..waiting to see more of this!

[rattlesnake]

Virtuoso:
Thanx for your words man...we must hurry the action cos time is consuming...im waiting more updates on your site too!

visualact.com:

Lemog:
thanx friend...youre right about your observation...i forgot to add extra volume there...thanx for your help !!

DimitrisLiatsos:
wow...thanx for taking time for looking all the other pages...im very happy that u like my work...really thanx for your words:)

[ace4016]

NIce updates, the temple looks great and that statue looks grand. Waiting for more updates.

[Climax]

• Hey Lescale, Very good Updates, The temple is looking good and textures will sure give and excelent finish to it! The Sculpture looks top quality too!

• A Suggestion: try A bit more variation to his face, he looks too much like your warrior model, Of course It can be an statue of himself actually :D

• I think the cape is hidding too much of him, as it is an sculpture you should uncover a little bit more his body :thumbsup: so he looks more imponent, the texture looks good, maybe try some birds crap on him or like some pieces of the rock it is made of are missing or damaged

• Good to see Updates from you, Is very nice to see you are back again :bounce:

[saturen3]

muy bien Jorge......

please continue....u are in a good mode.

[rattlesnake]

ace4016: thanx mate...some updates are comming...


Climax: very nice observations and advice...thanx a lot mate...is really apreciated

saturen3: thanx for support man ..it really means a lot!:thumbsup:

hi...here i show some textures for the building...i will add more details soon

[Lemog]

hmm. I hope you modify a bit these textures... that seem too repetitive... and take care to the base... the texture start at the middle of stones... I'm a bit disappointed by these textures, cause I've imagine previously something very different... but I like anyway... a good choice... I want to see nearly the next texture step Jorge... muy bien, puedes hacer mas :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

Lemog: dear friend i really understand what u said in your reply...i dont know if is good tecnique this: im creating this first step textures and after put this building in the scene i will modify textures acordingly to the floor and surrounding textures....for example..the ground will have some sand in it ...so i will need to add some sand to the textures...also im going to break some columns so they seem destroyed...and ill fix some tiling probles...like the one u told in the base of the building...i will fix that after matching the building with the surface...the irregular floor will cover the base of it so i can set properly tiling parameters until i match this...

but i really think your reply is helping here...cos youre giving me that wake up slap ...and i will make my best for future steps...and maybe i will skip posting this early tests...thanx a lot my dear friend i will always listen to your wisdom words...

ok now im back to work...:love::)

[Versiden]

excellent work on the textures, your stature looks amazing..
well done, keep it up dude!

[Virtuoso]

Hi Jorge......Well Lemog has made some good observations.I think just some tweaking and you will be right where you want to be.....Some variations in assorted places with the textures.......Possibly some breakup,some added wall niche,some decorative items along the walls,moldings possibly......

Perhaps you can go with the areas terrain as a good basis for the textures of the building?As if they built the building from the surroundings natural stone/rock/sand......

Ok,this in great hands I know,it's WIp for a reason,almost there Jorge,do your thing,i am sure it will come out wonderful......:thumbsup: :arteest:

[artemesia66]

Love the temple. the architecture is really different, adn very suggestive of a strong culture behind it. well done! :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

Versiden: i still need to work on them...thanx for your words


Virtuoso: really thanx for your great support man ...you always give me motivation to work harder and better...thanx a lot:love:

artemesia66: thanx..im happy to hear such words from a great artist!

[essencedesign]

I like where you are going with the temple....a good observation was made about the culture being modeled into it...I agree..it is different from anyhting I have seen ....and that is good....so for now i will give you A few of these... :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: ....we all need them at this stage ....

[rattlesnake]

essencedesign:

thnx for your continued support friend ..it really means a lot...oh..
Happy new year freind!! peace.

Nice crane amigo Yorch, you're already a Zbrush master :buttrock:

Best wishes to all of you this 2005 :thumbsup:

[arturro]

amazing skull, with amazing texture, so nothing new here:):)
but I have an impression that it seems to laugh:) I think you could try to make the mouth open, and add some more visible scratches.

[YasushAzush]

Perfect............:twisted:

[Lemog]

Oooooooooooooooooooh YES.... the skull is great... marvellous... :thumbsup: simple but efficient...

[rattlesnake]

mosconariz.... thanx alot friend!!

[KennyM]

I'd be happy too if someone painted my skull with a texture like that :scream:


been ages since I visited this thread, and I deserve some smacking for it:blush:

welll heres a little light test...i want to ,make a sunset environment...i love sunsets!

and well here i show a bit the general idea of the compo...of course theres too much more elements and fx to be added ...please any advice or comment is welcome...thanx!

[rattlesnake]

Virtuoso...

Hey friend...heres an other little update for u!...thanx man


Ionized...

friend is really good to cya here....im happy to read some words from u! thanx


DimitrisLiatsos....

s :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:......sssssnake bit that guy ..so he died happy :)
lol...yeah


KennyM....

thanx a lot for your words...:love:

[arturro]

Well, sunset idea is great... but... the characters won't be lighten enough to see how perfect they are:) Maybe some bonfires going out around them?

[taavi]

your scene looks great! Hope u manage to solve all those lighting puzzles! maybe some haze and clouds + really reddish sunset? :bounce:

[Virtuoso]

I like the "depth"....The scale and scope are very nice.But the depth I get from this angle is just looking great Jorge......Thats a very nice set up and angle.This will work great when you get all those great models into this as one............nice angle and great depth with just the right amount of scale and scope.......along with these fine models this will be,"Is" a great entry...........Jorge the rattlesnake "Strikes again"............:buttrock: :buttrock:

[keetmun]

It's coming along really nicely now, I think you could really enhance the mood you're trying to achieve by bringing the camera down a bit, make the composition really dramatic! But it's just a suggestion!

Cheers
:buttrock:

welll just an other rendering test...is not a high quality render...cos it still needs some depth of field, and render my elements with the high quality textures...also i will add more ships and maybe other elements...and of course some effects...particles...smoke and so on...but this gives pretty much the idea i have in mind...fell free to crit

[rattlesnake]

arturro... thanx for comments and ideas..i will consider some for next steps


taavi.... i like the redish sunset idea..i will make some testing


Virtuoso...thanx for your comments...my moral always get high after reading some nice words from such a great artist and friend like u...thanx


keetmun...hmm..interesting advice friend...i will try that...thanx!

[DimitrisLiatsos]

I like your composition sssnake...the one i would also do though ....is to get closer to the clan warriors on the right ....in this way u show the characters more and also u show wider the background...just a thought though...i like your work man :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :bounce: :bounce:

[rattlesnake]

Dimi...

oh yes...nice idea friend! thanx..ill do that... thanx for support:)

[Virtuoso]

Jorge..................I think the overall package has come out just wonderfully......A full scope and scale,with a very nice feeling of depth.........the far off in the distance feel is there,as well as a full scale scene with lots of models from vessels to characters........Alot done here,and done with quality.........:thumbsup:

I like the layout too,it's balance is well placed and organised.Not crowded,not too spacious with nothing to look upon.........Not over done,but just a nice balance........Plus the individual models are all top notch,and together they are just great.........

By the way have you played with some forced perspective angles? I would quess you have........I think you can get those warriors closer to the camera,or viewers eyes pretty easy with a strong forced perspective view or angle......................But than again with such a large high rez final for judging many of the smaller elements shown now will become quite visible anyways..........So with your nice higher level models this will work out just great for you........:thumbsup:

Ok,looking great Jorge,I am happy to see and say,you deserve a great outcome,with passion and talent such as you have it's wonderful to see..............Almost there Jorge....Just some more tweaks,post effects I assume and you are there sitting pretty at the finishline.....See you soon,and keep it in the fastlane Jorge the rattlesnake.......Cool and impressive update for sure..........:buttrock:

[Versiden]

great comp coming along dude

I think the shadows could be a bit brighter..

I like how the ships are arranged.. very cool.. great sense of action. Are u going to add motion blur?

[Saschi0815]

Hi Jorge, very fantastic, mate:thumbsup: Compo looks great, man!

...and I think your amazing chars should be a little more in the foreground ...they are too good to not see them in detail (or at least one)...Could be a gret focus....Anyway, great progress, mate - you're just in time, hmm? Super!!! :bounce:

Let the space flow around u...best wishes, my friend...and have fun!:applause:

[Climax]

• Good Job Jorge! I love how light comes to your buildings, but your warriors are in the shade, maybe if you bring them to the first plane...

• Try an horizon in the sky or a light behind the far city, the sky would be better in a yellow-sepia tone, there is a strange contrast, maybe not so dark :thumbsup:

• The overall is super cool as I xpected from you pal! keep going, the details i told u are minor things, the other things can be made in post editing :)

[Virtuoso]

The audiance is waiting................................................For more my cool snake buddy......:cool: :cool:

[essencedesign]

just one more waiting for more...perhaps bring all of these elemnts closer together in the scen...break them up with some fog layers, ect and make it almost like a portrait or , dare i say "movie Poster" :argh: ...it may help get rid of some of the dead zones in the compo.....


just a thought man..I have always enjoyed your work and consider you a friend.. :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

just pop up to say thanx for the support friends!!


Virtuoso>

Hey mate...im doing some changes and thinking is your word...maybe im going to add some more elements to the ground ...but i dont want to saturate too much the image ..so ill need your srtistic eye on my next update...hopelyy later tonight...renders are taking more time than i estimated:shrug:...thanx for your great support!


Versiden>

thanx for the words...im going to make some adjustments to the ships on the compo ...but im happy u like it!


Saschi0815>

thanx a lot for the good wishes:love:...ill be moving closer to the camera my characters in the followin steps...

Gracias! hare lo posible por acercar y hacer mas claros a los guerreros para que se vean mejor...tu sabes que aprecio mucho tus sugerencias y hare lo posible por seguirlas...eres un gran artista y amigo!:wise:

[Virtuoso]

Yes.yes.Yes................This works.was I right or what?;) :cool:

This works Jorge,it works just right............:buttrock:

Looks like you played with the old forced perspective something extra right?There are such advantages with it.........

well this is just the right tweak,and just what I had hoped to see since your last update,now these warriors get there justice,as they are up-front and center where they belong........Real nice jorge,great update,hard work pays off as you just proved again........One of my favorites as always.........Keep it coming,you are really right at the finishline Jorge the rattlesnake........great update.......:buttrock: :arteest:

[rattlesnake]

yes mate i made some tweaking to the camera and bring warriors to front...
so no more to say ill contunue with this one...thanks friend!:thumbsup:

hi...this is my rendering for the warriors...!! soon ill be working on the compositing!!..wooo

[PeterSanitra]

maybe you can more indirect lightning, to have more natural feeling of the lightning. And the skin shader looks to have some kind of sheer highlights, it`s not great, and it`s overexposed on the sunny side of the face..

[artemesia66]

Fabulous work. This is going to be a great image. IMHO, I wouldn't mind seeing the group of figures being a little a little more from the front, but i think you've already rendered. It could be adjusted in post. Also, tiny thing, but it caught my eye that the two banners are identical, right down to the tears in the cloth--again easy to fix in post. Keep going, the end is in sight. :thumbsup:

[Smooth-Criminal]

excelent work, definitively, the last view with the characters close it is much better, i agree with artemesia66 this part of the cloth, in the front character i think is a little unrealistic, if you have render the image try, to make a render of this sector only, or like artemesia66 says It could be adjusted in post. good work, and good luck!!:thumbsup:

[essencedesign]

you got it right on your second test...i just meant bring the camera closer giving less space to fill...you got it though ....keep renderin

[rattlesnake]

thanx a lot for advice !!

will fix those details in post...time is almost over...but really thanx for finding this errors...ill do my best...:)

[terraarc]

Hello mate! Nice going with the elements here! :thumbsup:
The poses are great.....
IMHO...I think you should tone down a bit the purple-red lights on those guys....

Keep them coming!! :bounce:

Snake my man............where did these renders come from.....should have told me......looking very sharp.It's great to see the hard work and effort pay off so well.Those little things like perfect grip on the bows,and delicate painted textured,and a whole "Live" scene come together........Looking excellent Jorge......get her done with that Jorge touch........:arteest: :arteest:

[Climax]

• 4 thumbsup for you Rattlesnake, YOU DID IT :bounce:

[Lemog]

Yeah... just one remark... all parts are with orange mood... but the temple is more pink than the rest... I f think you must adjust that...

And after that... I decern you 5 :thumbsup:


:D

Yup ..also ..just soften a bit the Sky behind ...it attracts the eye too much i think....just a humble thought to a great work..... GOOOOOOO SSSSSSSSNAKE ...and the crowd goes wild....


OLE ...OLE.... OLE....:bounce:

[izuizu]

I can't say anything...~so beautiful ~maybe i should practis for another century (^_^only a joke )

[arturro]

Amazing my friend. THis sky is just beautiful, and acts wonderful with your scene.

[Virtuoso]

Hi Jorge..............Well i can say that the sky has a "true" artists touch.....A magnificent blend of vivid and intense colors.......swirling with life and depth.......The colors are perfect for your scene/setting.And bring out the entire package perfectly.......A masterful touch on the sky,and a perfect fit for the compo,the balance of tones from models to sky are spot on......:buttrock:

The near final compo has turned out great,just a wonderful combined scene full of a heavy workload,lots,and lots of wonderful creations,You have mixed your compo very well,and given a great result of a fierce space opera.......I think also that when seen at major rez this is one of those Pictures that will soar very high,,,,and do it even more justice.......

I'll be watching for that final Jorge,and just wish you the very best with your last touches......One of my favorites for sure,and it's even better that it comes from a "true" friend........And a great guy......You have put together a wonderful package,But I knew you would......See you soon Jorge......:buttrock: :buttrock:.......and those beer's are Tequilla.......With or without worms.....you choose.......;) .......................:beer:

[3dRaven]

Nice rendering you got there Jorge. It must have been tough painting a sky at such high resolutions. Can't wait to see the final.

[Versiden]

dude .. it's turning out well.. awesome!

just one issue that's bothering me is the smoke trails at the back - they look like 2d images with a beveled edge. Should be more volume like you've done with the clouds...

otherwise, a strong entry ... mind blowing!

[mosconariz]

Yorch La Escala,

I'm amazed and very proud of you!

Beautiful sky and very nice job with the compo!

By the way, I have some suggestions, as always :scream::

╠═ The temple in the left is too pink and bright... it drives your atention there... I would prefer it a little more orange and maybe with some foggie effect cause of the distance/air density...

╠═ I'm back to the soldiers' subject again... I would like more constrast in there... would be great to add a back light (you know at least 3 or 5 lights) just to add a glow in the corners of the geometry, just enough to separate them from the ground...

╠═ And, about the foreground/background... In your place I would make a fog effect as the objects go away, and maybe put a little blur effect in the background.

My best wishes to you & your master piece!!!

[rattlesnake]

Climax.-

Thanx Omar :)


Lemog.-


OK sir...nice advice...ill fix it...thank u!


DimitrisLiatsos.-


Hey Dimi...ok ill make more discret the sky...thanx for the support man:)

3dRaven.-


It must have been tough painting a sky at such high resolutions

oh yes ...machine turns a bit slow after some strokes... but i like the result....thanx for be here....final one later today i think



Versiden.-

Oh...hi....yes i think youre right..ill be fixin that ....im going to make the smoke thinner at the end...like the first smoke colum...(left/right order) What do you think?
i made the smoke with afterburn...but if i set them less transparent they seem like rocks...i hope i can do it well...thanx for the advice man...



mosconariz.-

hey dude... thanx for your words ... and for the nice advice...is always useful...
ill be fixing those things friend....cya later today with the final one....














:love:

[Versiden]

I think the smoke furthest away should be thinner.. but I leave it to you to create the master plan. Moreover the size is the volume and density it needs..

you're almost finished,3 days is more than enough

[claudiojordao]

Hello rattlesnake! Is it done? Ahm? Come on! :)
Excellent job!
