View Full Version : timmy the genius
djkaneda 05-15-2005, 03:15 AM this is tim, he's a genius little kid, and he knows it... anyways any c&c you guys could give me on the model so far would be much appreciated. He's about 4500 tris. possibly will be cutting out some later on but he's actually under my limit so he's good for now. i'll be starting texturing him soon

Get rid of all the polys defining the rims of the glasses and the slight bulge on the top of his one pencil and put some edgeloops in his pants and shirt, and get rid of the small bevels on his pocket...these small details can be handled in the texture.

Ghostscape you have bad manners dude! :(
djkaneda you got a nice model here, some personality, definatly a nerd, the right shoes etc ( glasses ). Though Ghostscape did have some nice calls, he's right..
PS: DUDE YOU DIDN"T STRATEN OUT THE LOOPS ON HIS SLEEVES, DOO ITTT NOW!!! :twisted:

Hanzo: thanks for the kind words, and thanks for the advice on the sleeves. i'll take care of that right away
Ghostscape:i disagree about the glasses, as his ear pieces of them are cubes basically. if i just made the lenses planes the ear piece would stick out of it, and since he takes his glasses off at times, i want them to have enough detail to not draw attention to any poly saving endeavours. i agree however with the bit about the pocket and will take care of that. also, he's wearing gloves right now which i've eliminated and am probably just gonna do with the texture, so that'll pull back a few polies.. where exactly did you think in the shorts and shirt needed more loops?
thanks for the comments guys, and i'll deal with some of this later today when i'm done with my homework ( homework comes first :))

Por@szek: i'm probably gonna be hand painting the textures.. cartoony style, mostly cause i'm not that great at painting and really want to get better at it.
I'm glad you like him :)

I love this character, something you do not always see in 3D modeling...a nerd. I am not critique this model for things have already been said about it. I can imagine him as a toon shaded character. :)
