178 poly zombie

[Swizzle]

Well, the body looks good and is nicely expressive. The head is... well, let's talk about the body, eh?;)

1. Make the hands bigger, more menacing. Claws. :)
2. With how skinny you're making this guy, I'd expect the lower legs to be pretty thin--thinner than the thighs. That could just be an artistic decision, though.
3. Since you're working with quads right now anyways, give 'im a neck! He looks like his neck got removed!

Oh yeah, please work on the head. Please? For me?

Welcome to The Club.

this looks hilarious..is this gonna be cartoony?

[Schwinnz]

Definately cartoony.

I won't change the head unless it's essential. I have my plans.

EDIT: Next update is textures.

Ah, this changes things. Go for it! :D

He (she, it?) is looking really good. I was confused by the head to start with, thinking you where going to give him some kind of hat, but I now think that the bit projecting at the front is the nose of an African tribal mask. Right?

You must have reached the limit of how few polys can be used to model a recognisable 3D human form. Of course the ultimate low poly character would be an alpha-mapped single quad!

Pah! 4 polys for a head model, that's so wasteful. Florian really needs to learn how to optimise his meshes! :D

[Schwinnz]

Hope you like it as much as I do ! :) I started to texture the head. I wanna do it real real good.

If you're really looking well you can see that I uv mapped the face the wrong side. :D I've been a bit too fast haha, no biggie at least.

[DjinnShadows]

Excellent ! :bounce:
He really have the kind of face i expected.

[dangerkid]

Oh that''s it... damn. This is all too much cool. If I find the time this weekend I'm gonna have to get in on this retro stuff.

That zombie is perfect! I love his face and the fact that he is bowlegged.

If you want to make your character low memory consuming, you could also try to use the less texture size you can.

I'll probably resize it to 128 later, right now I prefer to use 256 because it gives more control and it looks better on screenshots :)

[Schwinnz]

Started back working on it yesterday night.

I'm almost done what do you guys think of him ?
:)

[Swizzle]

Toes, he needs toes!

[Schwinnz]

Yeah, the feet and tibias ain't done yet. And the palms too.

[Schwinnz]

Soo, I'm done with it. Comments ?

Final is 178 tris and 256 color map.
