vadim: mafia man

[yenvalmar]

what are you going to do with the cloth when you animate? the draping is so realistic in your model, do you plan to have it move realistically?

[Greedo]

great modelling especially the cloth... i think he needs a cigar though!!

[agasco]

thanx for the replies! that was fast,

Well, by now i'm not planning to animate him, is going to be more a modeling, texturing and lighting work, but maybe i do some motion capture (not sure yet) and then i'll think about the cltoh...
Greco, hehe, yeah i was thinking about the cigar too,.. but he is gonna have some fat rings and a big gun.

http://student.vfs.com/~3d53alvaro/mafia/gun.jpg

[Bryn]

Realy like the silhoutte of you character, and the way the fat rolles over his collar.
The only thing I might suggest: I think there should be some tention in the cloth across the top of his shoulders, just to show some stretching.
Model is looking good, see ye later.

[olliemethod]

I like it, he's looking tough. He'd look cool with some big rings on his fingers.

[the_WrongChoice]

very nice model, i like the style
maybe the hands are a bit too long, im not sure

[Cinimod]

Lol, he looks a lot like Paul Martin! Its great :applause: Overall looking really good, loving the style and the wrinkles u make in the pants. Hmm, maybe there can be more wrinkles for the shirt around the belt area? It seems like more cloth/fat would hang over the belt.

[SanderWit]

Amazing work man, really cool. This is a really cool and very very well modelled character.

Do you have sketches/photo's of where it is based on?

[agasco]

i'm glad you guys like it so far! here i send my last update. I did this model from some sketches i did, and i'll send them later.
cheers!!http://student.vfs.com/~3d53alvaro/mafia2.jpg

[shraga]

Hey Alvaro- awesome model !!! it looks just like your concept drawings..

keep it up..

[agasco]

here is some of the concept stuffhttp://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/137959_1112950050_medium.jpg

[SanderWit]

:eek: WoW, even the artwork is fabulous! And the hands, wow the hands, amazing modelling pal!

Keep it up, it'l be amazing.

[agasco]

whats up guys! thanks a lot for the replies! well, here is a little update of my character, the modelling is really close to be done, and i'll start unwrapping. but one last critic before wouldn't be too bad, hehehe.
ok, i hope you guys like it!
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia3.jpg
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia3.jpg

[agasco]

i add some robotic implants on his head, and the gun is not finish
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia4.jpg

[Scotcho]

Model is looking fat my friend.. looking pretty cool too. Gun is looking very nice.. hopefully you'll have time to rig his arm to pull out the gun so you can show the whole thing when you do a model rotation. Looking forward to some fatty skin textures.

[olliemethod]

Looks like one mean mofo. I swear I saw this guy on Burrard yesterday. Ha ha. The gun looks cool and the bracelet is a nice touch. Only comment I have is that the tip of the tie could be more pointy. See you tomorrow.

[shupersonic]

This model is looking most sweet. The only crit that I have at all is that maybe his belt needs a few holes in it so that after he is done eating, he can loosen it up a bit.

I am interested in seeing what you are gonna do with the texturing. This guy looks like a totally fat slob so some grimy stains and sweaty rings around his collar would work . . . but this guy is also in a futuristic mob so maybe he would wear expensive clothing and jewelry and have a much more classy appearance . . . with some degree of grace (like brando in The Godfather.)

Sweet stuff man very very sweet

[agasco]

thanks guys!
i found some stuff to fix, so its gonna take me some more time to finish the modeling. For the texturing i'm thinking like makining his face all sick, with white and blues, and the dress... well i'm looking to some movies to check mafia looking colors for the shirt and the pants.
but yeah, thanks again, and i'll send some more stuff when i get something done.

cheers

[agasco]

here is some test of the cloth, looking mafia enough?
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia5.jpg

[JCAddy]

heck yea...this rules...man i wish i knew where to get started on modeling people. I'm bored with modeling rooms and buildings..bla!


Any tips on where to start ? I've got Zbrush so once I get a basic shape down I can take it in there and I sort of have an understanding of how it works...

[agasco]

ggjason- thanks man, yeah i also started couple of years ago with architecture and interior design with 3d max, i still like it... this is my second character in xsi, and to start... well you know, doing proxy of the character, and modeling in different pieces and then merge what needs to be.I'm very interested in caricatures and stylized characters. zbrush, i haven't used yet but i'm looking foward to, i've seen amazing stuff with it, i may take this one's head and hands and do some zbrush on it.

cheers and good luck!

[Chrishaune]

Looking good man. You have nice flow going with your model. The folds and everything look great. I like it.

[Domo_Digital]

Hey Mang, have you seen Estar Guars yet?

Any who, just lookin at your model, and theres a couple things not sitting quite right with me, his wrists seem a little high, so I guess that means his arms lookin a little short.

Also, his bracelet looks solid... if its metal thats all good, but if its leather or something I would think it would sag a bit.

[agasco]

yeah domo, about the arms, i'm gonna fix it 'cause i think you are right, and the brazalet is metalic but i'm going to make it a little baggy, and i'm gonna fix some of the geometry on the face to make it older and with more personality, also the shirt.
oh!, i'm going tomorrow to estar guarz, lets see..........

[J.Wilson]

hey dude ,
hes lookin like one tough fat man, i love your character hes gonna look sweet all textured!
keep up the good work, cant wait to see the final

i agree with scotcho it would be sweet if you could rig that arm so we could see the full gun in the rotation

good job dude
cheers

[agasco]

whats up! here is the last update of vadim, i've fix some stuff with the cloth and i add some more details on the face.
thanks joe!

[the_WrongChoice]

great model ! i like it a lot
maybe the eye area could use a bit of tweaking though
but anyway really nice ! :)

[agasco]

Hello everyone! I'm almost done with the unwrapping and i did some lighting shader test today, looks funny:cool:! its like wax!
but anyway, i hope start with the bump map for tomorow.

Thanx, the wrong choice!!

Cheers
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/pruevacara.jpg

[Scotcho]

I wish I had a fat mafia candle like that.

[agasco]

hello everyone!! finally i finished the f*ck*ng unwrapping (i can only see checkers everywhere), i started the bump map on the face. Critics and coments are very welcome.

cheers!!
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia8.jpg

[ffourier]

very nice modelisation and nice design. Is this the official topic of the vancouver film school ? :) your school has a very good reputation in the whole world...

[agasco]

thanx destroyfred! well, the school is very good, very intense, veeeeeeeeery intense, and tere is a lot of talented people that help and inspire you. Its a one year program and in the half of it, you can chose between modeling, animation and vfx.

cheers

[Rumr]

MAN! VFS seems like a nice place to rock on. I always see nothing but nice nice works coming from there. Makes me want to head out there. Plus alot of XSI witch is my favorite tool. Id love to see some face actions as ive seen on other vfs reels. Keep rockin ill be following this thread.
Killer concept killer modeling.

[agasco]

hello everyone, here is a test on colour map and difusion on the head. the eyes are a litltle too red....
Thanx rumr!!
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/colorhead.jpg

[Nathellion]

That looks really cool, although I really liked the colors you gave him in that concept...and that big jacket made him look especially aloof and sinister.

[taisir]

DAmn AGASCO,

this is very cool stuff!!! Great modelling and great face expression of the mafia face! i love especially the nose detail - this plastic thing on the nose! this is GREAT !http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/scream.gif

I GIVE YOU 5*****! i cant understand people who give such stuff 3 or less stars http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/shrug.gif http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/sad.gif

(i think they give you bad points because beeing jalous of your ABILITIES! thats why these people don´t found the bad points. but the points thing should not be the primary matter here http://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/wise.gif )

KEEP IT UP!!!

[ffourier]

wow it's so impressive. Really incredible. 5 stars !

[IGhosTDoGI]

got a lot of character. nice one.:thumbsup:

did u use zbrush for bump mapping or is the map hand painted?

[dbrs]

Nice work Agasco.Man i liked the model,looks like one freaky Don.
Looking forward to see it completely textured.
Keep up the nice work dude.
U Rock,5 stars from me

[agasco]

nathaellion: thanx, i've also thought about that, yeah the concept is more sinister, and i'm doing some chages to the colour map to make him look a little more sick(not too much, because i don't want him to look like he is wearing make up).

ghost dog:thanx, i didn't use zbrush, its all hand painted (i was going to use zbrush, but i'm finding all the posibilities you have with a hand painted bump, its amazing!!)

taisir: Thank you man!! i apreciated your coments a lot! and i'm glad you like the nose stuff, i think its a little detail that make it look some futuristic or weird.... Thank you again. You got some really cool stuff in your web (congratulations for the animago award!!) Keep it on!!:bounce:

destroyfred: Thank you!

dbrs: Thanks a lot!!

[agasco]

update of the color, i like it better, is more like the original concept. (critics welcome)

cheers

http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/color2.jpg

[el28]

Hey man you´re getting the heaven. Or about mafia the hell.. :applause: Really getting very far! :buttrock:

five stars :beer:

[ffourier]

this character remind me the face of one in Falen Art (a short). http://www.3dvf.com/DATA/PUBLISH/1459/images/jpg_przeliczone_krotsz_00052.jpg
http://www.3dvf.com/DATA/PUBLISH/1455/images/jpg_przeliczone_krotsz_00089.jpg
:)

[agasco]

yeah, actually they both look like some bad motherf*ck*rs:D

thanks el28!!

cheers

[Rumr]

This is coming out nice, id like to see some wires and some other ss, inspires and gives a great feel. Keep rockin. How long you been working on this guy now?

[THECLYKE]

this is looking great man
very grimey and griddy...lets hop your texture work on the clothing is up to par too...
have you started modeling the background..i love the concept

keep it going bro

[glassefx]

Really nice and really different for a change... Maybe I missed it somewhere in here but what is up with his nose? Really impressive work you've done on this one with the model deformed folds/wrinkles...

[taisir]

i love it! great! :scream:

what material should the nose thing be off? metal or plastic? - in both cases i would suggest to make a cool texture for the close up - kind of used, scratched edges or sth. like that...

your hand painted bump is pretty cool, i also appreciate to paint in psp..

keep going!


ps: thx for the compliment about my STELLA :)

[agasco]

hello everyone,and thank you for the replies. i'm still texturing, and the head its almost done, have to fix some stuff...

Rumr: thnax, well, i think i've been a month now, may be some more, and i'm hoping finishing it in like 2 weeks.

The clyke: Yeah man, i' ve already started the background, i have the proxy of the city and now i'm making some props like street lights, traffic lights,.... I'll start with the texturing right when i finish this guy.

Glassefx: Well the nose stuff is some cyber implant, heheheh, yeah to give him some subtle futuristic looking.

Taisir: whats up man, right now i'm working on the bump map, i think is going to be metal, and the color....... i'm not sure if is gonna be grey or red........ i'll see. (yeah psp rules!)

Thanks again, and here is some update!:bounce:
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia9.jpg

[satch919]

Thats a great character you have there! The concept of the entire piece is awesome too!

Skin shader looks top notch as well. Don't keep us wait too long for updates. :)

[fabianloing]

Hei man,

that is a VERY NICE color map!
The model looks good, clean wire, textures look good too.
You will do really well man!
Keep up the good work!
For crits, if it were me, i think i would darken the eye area even more and i would give a bit more dirt on the nose, forehead, and a bit on the mouth surrounding too.
But then it is still your decision. It looks really good already.


-Fab

[Rumr]

Killer Update! I like it all, texture lighting, everything mad sick! All thats missing is a bit of oil on his skin or a drip of swet and hes rekin! 5 stars.

Thanks for posting the wires inspiring!!!

[Neeno]

aweseom sahder and textures dude.. this is coming alon real nicely.. darken those moles up a little right now there very light.. maybe 1 or 2 hairs coming off the mole too.. loking good dude.. gangsta

[Trinnity]

Ey Alvaro!!..un modelo fantástico y muy buenas texturas:thumbsup: ..sigue asi!

Fantastic work!!...Congratulations!!

Un saludo!!:)

[agasco]

hello and thanx for the replies!!

satch919: Thank you, I'm glad you like the concept! i'll try to send more stuff soon....

Fabianloig: Yeah, i agree with you, the nose and the eye area has to be fixt, but thanks a lot for the complements, i'll see you around!

Rumr: No problem for the wires!, i didn't realice that i hadn't send any wires..... thanks too!!

Neeno: Thanx, yeah man, trying to make a fat gansta bastard, heheh

Trinity: muchas gracias trini!!:scream:(jejeje es broma), a ver si lo tengo terminado para la semana que viene.... tu modelo va de puta madre!!

I'll send some more stuff later.

Alvaro

[J-Smith]

Man, I wish I could make textures that look half as good as that. The only crits I could come up with are, the wrinkles on the cloth seem to be a bit sharp, and the zipper area is bit short. you might lengthen it along the lines of the crotch.

Everything else looks amazing. More updates. ;)

[J.Wilson]

yo alvaro,
the shader and textures look awsome dude.. this is comming along nicely man
keep up the awsome work cant wait to see this guy all textured up
awsome job manhttp://cgtalk.com/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

cheers

[olliemethod]

it's looking really nice man, the color map is great. I can't wait to see him all posed up. keep on rockin' !

[ffourier]

i want to go to the vancouver film school to lear how to make such amazing models :)

[collings]

Whaow great texturing :thumbsup: and perfect modeling too !

Good job so far ... definitely a great model ;)

[agasco]

whats up every one, thanks for the replies! J-smith: yeah, i'll check thats stuff out, thanx.
well, here's a little update of my textures, for the head, i still have to do the spec map and may be some fur, everything else is coming along alright.
I still don't know yet what color, or what kind of material is going to be on the shirt, something...... mafia heheheh, if somebody have an idea, i would apreciate it!!

http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia10.jpg

[dnk]

Looks great so far.
But, why at it such thin fingers, at such thick body?

[Rumr]

Damn it! Thats making me gag. 6 stars!

[devailo]

If he was a real mafia boss i would shurely go to his gang. Absolutely gorgeous. And i think that the fingers are alright. Bye!

[agasco]

whats up again! here is a little update of the model, some colour for the shirt........... idon't know yet if this is gonna be the one, but it looks very pimp!...
thanx for the replies!, dnk: well from that shot, the fingers look a little thin, but in the whole thing they look pretty big, but i'll check it out, thanks. (your model is looking awesome)

cheers guys!
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia11.jpg

[yenvalmar]

i think the model and the actual maps are good, i assume the surfacing and lighting isnt done..

[MSB]

really good work man

but i feel that guy is poor one forecd to work with them - it will depend now on eyebrows to make him evil-

and didn't you notice his skull there's something like splotch on the right side of the head.


one more last thing

his legs are thin and his upper body is fat. i don't know maybe that's right but that what i feel

and the fingers are alittle bit thin.

that's all

[agasco]

heyyy waths up guys, not, this stuff this is not done yet, its close tought, i just showed some color map on the shirt.

yenvalmar: no, it is not done yet, have to finish it, the shirt doesnt look right yet......

msb: Heeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy whats up man, i lived in abu dhabi for two years, i bought a car (bmw m3) in sarja three years ago, how´s everithing going there?, yes i´m going to put some eyebrouls there, and the legs are right to me, i´ve taken some reference and they look like that hehehheh, but thankd, i´ll check everything again

cheers!!

[Micro26]

Cool character and his expression is very funny,
Great modeling also:thumbsup:

[roberte]

Alvaro,

Quite pleasurablle model . I enjoy how you have been very methodical and concientious in maintaining a high standard of quality throughout the development of the mafia man.

The only critique that glares out at me is the implant as it seems totally without reference or reason and totally contrasting the overall theme of the image. It's as if you are confused as to just what you are attempting to create in this charactor, or are attempting, unsuccessfully, to put too many different themes togather. In my opinion your work would have much more validity and power if you left well enough alone and allowed him to be a mafia man not a mafia man cyborg as it doesn't make any justifiable sense.

Robert

[MSB]

msb: Heeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy whats up man, i lived in abu dhabi for two years, i bought a car (bmw m3) in sarja three years ago, how´s everithing going there?, yes i´m going to put some eyebrouls there, and the legs are right to me, i´ve taken some reference and they look like that hehehheh, but thankd, i´ll check everything again

cheers!!

heeeeeeey,you lived in abd dhabi :D everything is fine here specially the weather :applause:

hope you come again :)

[J-Smith]

Wow, that guy is looking completely mafioso. The clothes are looking good too, now I have no crits for this guy.

About the thin legs, and fat upper body, that's almost exactly the way my dad is built. He says he has a body like potato, with toothpicks for legs. :D

Your model looks very intimidating, like a mob 'leg-breaker'. Great work.

[Kickflipkid687]

wow... very good job so far! The yellow color on the shirt looks odd. He should have a white shirt or something, or maybe red. Otherwise, awesome job! :thumbsup:

[agasco]

thank you all for the coments! i'm still changing the colors of the shirt, and fixing stuff, the lighting, textures.... I change the color fo the shirt to black with white collar....

Roberte: well , yeah there is people that like it a lot, people that hates it, all kind of coments, the android stuff is based in an Enki Bilal's character, a little tribute to such of amazing artist, also i'm making an enviroment, where the mafia man is in, some kind of futuristic industrial city, to give some context. Even tough i still don't know if i'm gonna use it (the implant). Thanks again for the complements and the coments.

cheers!!

[chenga]

:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

I like your work so much! However, i would prefer he wears a black shirt and white tie. It would be more mafia feels :)

[ffourier]

realy impressive. Nice texturing. I think the ring does not appear enough brilliant. Otherwise it is wonderfull :)

[agasco]

thanks chenga and destroyfred for your support!
Here is an update of the txtures and the gun, finally i'm decider for the blue shirt, i think is a very neutral color and looks good. I'm almost done with the textures....almost there!!! and i'm gonna rig the right hand to posse him, maybe I rig everything, but that'll have to wait... also have to do some eyebrouls...
http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/mafia12.jpg

[J.Wilson]

it looks f*ck*ng sweet dude!
i love the textures, they really brought this guy to life, nice work
keep it coming dude
cheers

[Trinnity]

Tiene todo el rollo!!..esta fantástico tio...la camisa azul de rayas mucho mejor...muy buen curro Alvaro!!:thumbsup:

Congratulations again!!:bounce:

Besines!!

[WesleyTack]

nice work, but one very big error in it...
the revolver barrel is upside down, and the trigger area is correct, so there is no way in hell i would wanna shoot that gun or i'd be killed instantly :p
i would fix that though :p

[agasco]

heyy whats up!

Gacias Trini!!

Simon. wt: whats up man, well i don't know much about guns, this one is a bit different from the normal revolver, i used this design from the conceptual design book of ghost in the shell, i thought it looks very cool and gansta jejeje.
http://student.vfs.com/~3d53alvaro/mafia/revols.jpg

[WesleyTack]

hmm, i see, the trigger must be at the bottom of the cylinder then :)
well it's ok i guess then, i must say that yes it is a very cool weapon design
and a very very nice character you did

two thumbs up

[agasco]

thanx man, yeah, you are not the only one who said something about the gun, is a little weird technically, but looks really cool:scream:

cheers!

[Rumr]

I have read befor that nothing is sharp and hard edged in the real world. Id fix that gun if hes going to pull it out or hold it out. but then again you might not get a close up of it.

[GarethE]

Heh, I love the "Made in Czech Republic" on the barrel of the revolver.

[NSF]

WOW!

This is a fantastic piece of modelling and texturing. I just wouldn't know where to start on a piece with such detail. That said, would it be possible to see your face bump map or a sample of part of it? Using XSI are you able to paint directly on the model or is it all unwrapped and painted in Photoshop? I've just got no idea and would love to see what you painted in photoshop. The bump mapping is what gets me, the raised and sunken areas for the pores, this blows me away. If there is a tute out there for this kind of thing, could you or someone else please link me.

Also where did you get the texture for the leather holster and it's straps?

Keep the WIP's coming, I'm watching with such awe!

[qwed88]

Very awesome!, I think a man like thats hands would be very worn and damaged, just my opinion though, I'd give him a pinky finger that does'nt bend right, as if it were broke at one time and wasnt set, maybe some sweat stains too that would be gross

[Locus]

By the way, the real-world equivalent of that revolver is a design created by the Mateba company. Rather than operating on a manual cocking, or manual double-action trigger pull (which is generally heavier and slower) for each shot like standard revolvers, the Mateba Autorevolver (http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Mateba-Autorevolver) is a semi-automatic weapon, using the recoil to cock the hammer and spin the cylinder to the next round. The logic of mounting the barrel on the lower position is that it reduces the leverage of the kick, so that it's easier to control when firing.

I love the model so far, by the way. The face has a lot of character.

[agasco]

woow!, hey man, now i know more about guns :scream:, that some cool information, i thought it was totally imaginary, but it seems is not... thats a sweet looking revolver, and i think it matches perfectly with the character.
Thanks for the info and the coments!

[stung]

wow, good work! keep it up!

Can't wait for the final version!

[ffourier]

when we will be able to see an animation ?
I am very impatient.
Your work is so splendid...

[agasco]

thanks guys!

destroyfred: i´m going to rig the character, maybe for next week, and i´m hoping to do some mocap (maybe) and some face shapes.
one question: how are the jobs in france?, is it really hard to find a 3d job? i´m from spain, and when i finish this course, i may go back to europe and look for a job there. This last few months i´ve seen some amazing shorts from france, AMAZING, a lot of talent, very original stuff and very cool stuff, looking foward for more...:bounce:


cheers!

[PedramK]

looks great dude, very characteristic...character.
try a white shirt and black tie maybe u wanted some ideas earlier.

great work, do him a little guy as a sidekick

[izarpicture]

woooww man ! your work is great

i'm looking foward the final! keep it up
:applause:

[overcontrast]

wow so much goin on here... dude ur modleing is really kick a$$... good luck with ur work... will be wating for the final piece :thumbsup:

[agasco]

hello guys! thanx for the replies,the character is not totally done, i still have to fix some stuff i found in the render, and after that i'm gonna continue with other stuff im working on. This is what i have so far of vadim.

http://student.vfs.com/%7E3d53alvaro/mafia/WIP3.jpg

[Scotcho]

Very cool model Alvaro. I think you need a bit of tweaking with the lighting, make it more dynamic.. looks a little flat. Give Vadim more contrast, like a brighter side with a darker shadow side. A rimlight would be nice too. Love his turkey face.

[Rumr]

One of my favorite charecters. Ive been dig this guy.

[Feeank]

Increible trabajo Alvaro, de verdad me da pena montar mi modelo en este sitio al ver modelos como este. felicitaciones!:thumbsup:

[agasco]

muchas gracias feeank, bueno yo creo que este sitio en concreto es para todo el mundo que le da al 3d, y mas work in progress, te dan ideas y tips para seguir. bueno, muchas gracias otra vez, y ya mandaré este terminado (que todavia me falta hacerle una buena iluminacion):bounce:
saludos!

[Yourworstnightmare]

Your model looks very intimidating, like a mob 'leg-breaker'.


This is a great model, it's amazing and I wish that I could model like this, but the quoted sentence reveals a problem with your model. He doesn't look like a mafia boss, he looks like the guy who does all the dirty work within the mafia, not the guy who sends someone else to do the work. He looks like a soldier. But the model itself is one of the best i've ever seen.

[MagnumHB]

It's probably too late and you may have had this in mind, but the revolver is a little bit too Vash the Stampede/Mateba for my mental image of a mafia weapon. I picture more of a Taurus Raging Bull or perhaps Danny Vermin's (from Johnny Dangerously) ;) revolver for that character. Very nice otherwise though.

[medunecer]

Great model and very good concept too. Do you use UV mapping?
Are you writing the story too?

[losttogether]

hey man, i really like the texture on his face, the skin texture looks really good. Maybe his cloth can have some tweak on shader and model. maybe add more wrinkle and more texture details. because now the level of the cloth seems not matched with his head. good job!

[agasco]

thanks for the replies guys!

yourworstnightmare: yeah, may be he looks like a soldier, it doesn't really matter, he also could be a boss (big, fat, with that expresion in his eyes, with those rings....) hehehe, i wanted to give him some bad ass attitude.

magnumhb: heheh, thats some close detail, i chose the mateba 'cause it looks cool and fat, the other one you are telling me looks nice too, and it would fit perfect with the character, but i don't know too much about guns anyway, but thanks!

medunecer: yes i used uv mapping, about the story.... i have something, but i'm not gonna have time to make it, by now i'm making the set for it, and after that i'll start some other characters, thanks.

losttogether: thanks Ally, i agree that the textuers on the face have way more work than the cloth, i'm thinking tweaking it some more, make it look more like cloth, but is got to be very subtle because it suposed to be all clean and new (the cloth). By the way, you have a very nice reel, the set and the little girl look awesome!

cheers!

[Yourworstnightmare]

yourworstnightmare: yeah, may be he looks like a soldier, it doesn't really matter, he also could be a boss (big, fat, with that expresion in his eyes, with those rings....) hehehe, i wanted to give him some bad ass attitude.
