Here he is !
A new render with Final gather from Mental ray...
The eyes are done quickly with some ramp...
I think he is shaved to much... Maybe He will have some hair soon !

[Gunilla]

Oh yeah - each update just gets better :bounce::bounce:

[Yevgeniy Shelukhin]

This face need lower bump!!!

[rattlesnake]

man i dont know , but in my opinion the bump is ok, mybe a bit softer, but looks very very nice, it also dependes on how far the camera is going to be of the face in the final compo, i think this way will look perfect in a medium shot , if youre going for a close up maybe softer, but wow, face is already spectacular!:wavey:

[eddieellis]

hey mate looking sweet.. love the skin texture:thumbsup:

[gpepper]

Thanks my dear Gun !

This face need lower bump!!!

Your right, at this distance, the bump is maybe a bit too high !
I will tweak that during the render of the final image, depending to the distance we see him...

Thanks Jorge and Eddy for your support !

The same render with less intensity...
Ok I stop with that, the next step should be the eyes' texture, and the hairs...

[collings]

the skin looks really great gpepper!
you can jump on the next step :thumbsup:

[Lemog]

Yes, for sure, latest updates are great... very interesting to discover each efforts done for every steps... impressive work Gilles, really :buttrock:

Now, we the level obtened... I'm very impatient to see the result of this marvellous skin with good eyes... good courage Mister Professor :thumbsup:

[eddieellis]

hey mate, i love the skin as said before, but i think the eye's are alittle to bright and colourful for the rest of the face and put the whole image off alittle.

[Zapan]

Thanks John ! The nose looks a bit too plastic because I don't make any specular map at this time... It will come later...

hi buddy .u can check how i did the eyes on my thread.:thumbsup:

Thanks Rishi ! I think it will help me a little !

[alex.h.]

great work on the skin, see you and :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[JamesMK]

That's a very good skinshader! I see you've already been discussing the eyes and the area around the eyes... looking forward to see what happens, as this could turn out to look really great.

Probably already asked and answered - but will he have teeth?

Here are his glasses again, with more reflexion...
I'm working on the eyes' texture at this time...

[madshooter]

That looks real cool dude:thumbsup: very nice reflection

[Gunilla]

Oh yeah - those glasses really rock!

Will he have teeth? Or has he swallowed them in fear? :D

You're really doing some great texture work here!

[gpepper]

Will he have teeth? Or has he swallowed them in fear? :D

No He have no teeth cos he lost his Dental prothese in the jump !

[Gunilla]

No He have no teeth cos he lost his Dental prothese in the jump !

OK - makes sense

:D

[Lemog]

Without dental prothese ? a good thing, protection before... but he will jump naked or with his rubber suit ? :scream:


In any case, :thumbsup: for the glasses...

[madshooter]

Hey dude, you know what right now it seems like he saw swamps sexy female model and his mouth is left opened and eyeballs gonna popout;) just kidding.

[gpepper]

Without dental prothese ? a good thing, protection before... but he will jump naked or with his rubber suit ? :scream:


In any case, :thumbsup: for the glasses...

Bearing the Rubber suit is compulsory !

[pseudonympending]

Very nice shine on his forehead and the strap of the googles looks good.

Nice work, look forward to seeing him falling from the sky.

Here are the hairs... The eyebrows are a bit strange, have to tweak that.
And I still haven't found the trick to have good eyes ! damned !

[Lemog]

Il a le sourcil en bataille... mais c'est plutôt pas mal... need more work for the eyebrows... this guy is beautiful... :scream: :thumbsup:

[gpepper]

Pour les poils, je devrais y arriver, mais c'est ces putains d'yeux qui me font chier grave !

I think I will find the right way for the eyebrows but I'm getting crazy with these f@$king eyes !

[Lemog]

Et ils sont d'autant plus visibles qu'il n'a pas de cils...

[gpepper]

Et ils sont d'autant plus visibles qu'il n'a pas de cils...

Clair que c'est un manque...
J'ai bossé un peu dessus, mais le résultat n'était pas top, alors je reviendrais dessus certainement demain...
Il ne me reste que 5 jours avant de reprendre le boulot, alors il faut que j'en profite !

there was a really good thread on eyes on the cinema 4d forum that may help?http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=225711&page=1&pp=15. also Pupi, an eye master, provided this diagram, which I found really helpful-

What about some teeth ;) ?

[alancamara]

Hi. The work with the textures is good, but i think that you could work more the both eyebrows and the shader of the eyes, i'm not thinking compatible with the work so far. The shader of the head, is perfect in my opinion. keep going :thumbsup:

Gillou ? ahah ! on ne m'appelle plus comme ça depuis que j'ai 10 ans ! Où alors les intimes... Est-ce que je peux te compter parmis mes intimes... je vais y réfléchir...
En plus j'ai jamais dit que j'étais débile ! J'ai dit que j'étais un peu lent... ( faut que je fasse gaffe à ce que je dis, il me semble que tu enregistre les conversations msn...)
Faire mal à la jupe ? Je connaissait une expression trés vulgaire que je trouve moyenne; "casser le jean", mais faire mal à la jupe, c'est encore un truc qui a à voir avec les voiture ça, non ?

[daWinky]

Hey, your guy is coming along pretty good now:) . You've done great work on the shader:thumbsup: ! With some hair and especially good eyes he will be perfect.:bounce:

Oh, and cool glasses by the way!

-sabrina

[Gunilla]

He looks very good with his hair on! To bad he's lost his teeth :scream:

I can see your trouble with the eyes... they don't come out as alive as the rest of him... hmm.. would you consider touching them up in Photoshop cheating? If not, a small highlight in the right area would perhaps be an improvement. Maybe you could also try them a bit less saturated...

Oh, it's going to be great to see him fall - keep it up:bounce:

[Zapan]

Yeah , these hairy parts give him a lot of personnality.
Honnestly I do see something wrong with eyes but I really don't see what exactly.

Anyway I hope you will get over it and don't spend too much time on it
Great work my friend :bounce: :bounce:

An update is coming, the eyes and the hairs are better now. Not perfect, but better...

Great work my friend :bounce: :bounce:

Thanks Steph ! The hairs give more, for sure !
The eyes haven't shiny specular at this time, I think this is the wrong thing, but things are going to be changed. I don't want to spend much time on it, but I thik this is very important...

[gpepper]

Here he is again. A little change in the eyes and in the hairs...

[makaron]

ahhh... you found a pair of scissors :bounce: to trim your hair... looks much better now :)
and the eyes is coming in the right way too...

[Zapan]

Yes hair are much better now, awesome :thumbsup: :bounce: :bounce:

[Lemog]

Keep the hairs like that... very good... now, focus you on the eyes... you are sure that this guy have green eyes ? maybe you can ask to your wife she take a good closer photo, not ? :scream:

[pseudonympending]

Haha, he looks really like this Greek guy I used to work with :)

Minor, minor crit but if the goggles are going to be on the head i reckon the taughness of the straps would pull them flush onto the forehead.

Cool model, the hair is adding to it nicely.

[gpepper]

mouai... mouai... c'est ce qu'on dit :scream:

:cool: He is great now! Cool update:thumbsup: :thumbsup: ! Just a little bit work on the eyes...come on, he's worth all your effort:bounce: :bounce: !!

-sabrina

[madshooter]

The guy looks cool dude:thumbsup:.

[alancamara]

The hair looks to me better now, but i think that you could work a bit on the eyes. Perhaps add veins, ambient reflect and decrease a bit the saturation. I'm sure that this work will be so good. Keep it up. :thumbsup:

[shakes]

Those eyes are really getting character in them now!

[DaddyMack]

Wow Pfeiffer! This guy has come a long way since I last dropped in... Great texturing, especially around the eyes:thumbsup:

[makaron]

maybe when you put on his eyelashes he will get more natural eyes?

[ChristianHammer]

Funny, very very funny... I love the main character...

You going to give a motion blur to show the speed?

[ThierryS]

Stunning work Gpepper, amazing details on that face and a nicely shaded skin!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[DrFx]

Wow, great work, Pfeiffer! Thanks so much for showing the step by step modeling!
It freaks me out that he doesn't have any teeth at all! You could perhaps put one or two teeth, and the tooth-holes after they fell. Also, the hair could be greyer.
Excellent work, and superb detailing! Good luck!

[DimitrisLiatsos]

mouai... mouai... c'est ce qu'on dit :scream:


Mouai ?....



Gpepper ...my friend...nice update ..now put him some teeth...:bounce:

[gpepper]

ahhh... you found a pair of scissors to trim your hair... looks much better now
and the eyes is coming in the right way too...

Thanks Mona ! The eyes are coming, maybe one day...

Yes hair are much better now, awesome

Thanks Steph !

Keep the hairs like that... very good... now, focus you on the eyes... you are sure that this guy have green eyes ? maybe you can ask to your wife she take a good closer photo, not ?

Thanks Laurent...
I gave him green eyes probably because I don't like mine...

Haha, he looks really like this Greek guy I used to work with

Minor, minor crit but if the goggles are going to be on the head i reckon the taughness of the straps would pull them flush onto the forehead.

Cool model, the hair is adding to it nicely.

Ok maybe I will tweak that, but in the final image, he will wear his google... thanks david !


mouai... mouai... c'est ce qu'on dit

Bah oui !
The models of an artist( and God knows that I'm not an artist!) look like the artist itself most of the time...

He is great now! Cool update! Just a little bit work on the eyes...come on, he's worth all your effort !

-sabrina

Thanks Sabrina... I don't know if I'm gonna work on his eyes too long... I have so much things to do again !

The guy looks cool dude.

Thanks Roshan !

The next update is coming with eyelashes...

Funny, very very funny... I love the main character...

You going to give a motion blur to show the speed?

Thanks Chris ! Motion blur ? I don't know... Maybe some cool DOF...

Stunning work Gpepper, amazing details on that face and a nicely shaded skin!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks Carlos ! His dental prothese would fly somwhere around him !


Mouai ?....



Gpepper ...my friend...nice update ..now put him some teeth...:bounce:

Mouai, some kind of "Yeah"...

Thanks to give me some comments Dimitris ! I don't think He will have real teeth...

[eddieellis]

looking great mate, and love that shader

[gpepper]

Thanks Eddy !
Yeah, I'm pretty proud of the result. The bad thing is that the others things are not so well done...

Here is the last render of the head...
I think I should begin the other stuff of my image... The body, the hands, stuffs, etc... And the plane for sure !

[Zapan]

I find eyes a lot better now , really cool with eyelashes and the wet part is truely well done.
I maybe already say that but the skin is stunning :bounce:

Now move on mate Go go go :bounce: :buttrock:

[madshooter]

Every thing is going fine, I see promising progress dude:thumbsup:

Waiting for other rocking stuffs:)

[alancamara]

Yeah! i agree with Zapan, the eyes is so good now. keep going :bounce:

[gardogg]

Nice job on the textures. I think the nose may be shaped in an unrealistic way. Also, the eyes look bored compared with the rest of the facial expression. I think the reason for this is that the eyelids are not WIDE open, which would emphasize the expression on the rest of his face. Hope these crits will help!

[rattlesnake]

hey, lovely result on the eyes, details on them make them look real! very good job, also the hair on the chin is very well done, for my taste the hair over the eyes is a bit heavy, but dam this looking amazing!

[Climax]

• Nice looking guy, great textures, i think is time to start your other models, Go man!

[Lemog]

With the eyelashes, it's immediately better... very beautiful Gillou... :thumbsup:
I'm waiting now the tongue texture :scream:

Hi and Thanks Gary ! Yeah the mose is not very realistic, but I don't think that my style is very realistic ! Having great eyes is really hard ! I spent too much time on them now, I have to begin the other stuff because I couldn't finish this image !

The hair are made with Shave and Haircut, the hair extension for 3Dsmax...

[gpepper]

I was at work, I decided to test again my model in Maya, cause I had some problems few weeks ago with the mesh...
So I redo the shader with all my textures and here is the render:

I find it more realistic than the 3Dsmax render. Strange...

[Zapan]

Yeah that's really weird... :shrug:

Your max render was definitly better and realistic, here, I think it's one of the most creepyest head I ever seen ...

[alancamara]

Yes, really is more realistic. Are you using MR/sss? I think good, but you could increase the specular, looks to me a little flat. You change the light setup? I liked a bit dark, on my opinion. Keep going mate :thumbsup:

[Gunilla]

Yeah - that's strange... but I agree with Stephane here, Max render looks better I think, this one is spooky.
So, how did tongue-in-scanner exercise go? :D

[gpepper]

Yeah that's really weird... :shrug:

Your max render was definitly better and realistic, here, I think it's one of the most creepyest head I ever seen ...

I find it better ? I thought the opposite...

Yes, really is more realistic. Are you using MR/sss? I think good, but you could increase the specular, looks to me a little flat. You change the light setup? I liked a bit dark, on my opinion. Keep going mate :thumbsup:

Yes this is MR and its sss fast skin... The lights are in quadratic mode... Maybe I should crank it up a bit...

Yeah - that's strange... but I agree with Stephane here, Max render looks better I think, this one is spooky.
So, how did tongue-in-scanner exercise go? :D

Are U Max fanatic ?

The tongue is coming ! :D

[makaron]

he look like a ghost, with these white eyes... :eek: one Question I have is, is he fall from the plane at daytime? the skincolor now with black background looks a bit like its night... could that make any diffrense in your final mage later?

[gpepper]

Yeah, you're right !
Everything will be different in the final image because he will fall from the plane at daytime !
In the last image I posted, there is no reflexion and the IBL is not there... But this was just a test to see the difference...
Few things have been changed on the last head I worked on. The eyelids were tweaked a bit to give him a scarrified look and I put another texture in another slot of the shader to give him a more living look...
Maybe U will see something new tomorrow...

[rattlesnake]

Man i like this last test...maybe need more light sources.but just few adjustments...i think this render can add a bit more realistic touch, in my opinion the skin color look better here, but well the other one was very amazing too...so im kinda confused...youre doing it great mate,:thumbsup:

[Zapan]

I find it better ? I thought the opposite...

I don't really know what this is about. In fact your maya render is way darker and I guess this is why I find a little creepy , you used the same map did you ? Of course the white eyes globes don't help ...

But maybe I'm wrong and maybe this is just a render/lightning problem , and in that case no need to worried about right now.

So keep it up friend , keep updates coming :bounce: :bounce:

yeah, there is no eyes, no fur, no glasses... We can't compare each others...
I think this is not the time to find the details. I have another difficult things to do, so let's jump to the other stuff !

[shakes]

That new maya render is great stuff- looks more real than the max one- what will you do when you don't have the two programmes to choose between ? hehheh
looking awesome!! http://img347.imageshack.us/img347/5996/smileyeye26vj0az.gif

I use Maya most of the time ! But 3Dsmax tease me sometimes !

[cg219]

oh this looks nice. I like the shader. I think the hand painted texture can use some more work, mostly in the 5 oclock shadow area. Other than that looks good.

[Gunilla]

Are U Max fanatic ?

Hahaha, not me .. not fanatic in any way - whatever does the job best it's the good way.
Maybe it was the lighting then, but I felt the first render more alive... on the other hand the Maya render looks like he's half dead with fear so perhaps it's a good thing. :shrug:

And now, it's time to see some more of him I think :wip:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

I like better the last one in Maya with SSS..it has a better feel IMO .:twisted:

Bonjour monami. ( Weee..i spoke French...:scream:)


:bounce:

[Lemog]

The last one in Maya is really better... just need to have a little more defined render (maybe only due to the render size)... and to have a better lighting... and that's will be perfect...

remember how I spell this guy previously... Mr CandleMan... this one seem to a real guy... in flesh and skin... not in plastic or in candle... :scream: verrrrrrrrrrrry gooooooood :thumbsup:

I'm wiating impatiently the next pic :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Here is a new version with the eyes wide open !
Skin texture is a bit different too... I added another map in the subdermal slot color...

Here is the both renders...
Which one do U prefer? The last one looks a bit too red in my opinion...

[gpepper]

Thanks !
"5 oclock shadow area" What does it mean ?

I think the lightning is the bad point and there is no reflexion on the shader too... But I thin k I continue like, I have less time than before to work on it... so I should begin the other stuff ! ( I think I tell that until months !)

I like better the last one in Maya with SSS..it has a better feel IMO .

Bonjour monami. ( Weee..i spoke French...)

Thanks Dimitris !
The maya render is great, for sure !
Hey ! nice ! merci et bonjour à toi aussi !

remember how I spell this guy previously... Mr CandleMan... this one seem to a real guy... in flesh and skin... not in plastic or in candle... verrrrrrrrrrrry gooooooood

I'm wiating impatiently the next pic

I think that the difference between Max and maya is in the fact that maya load the texture with a quadratic filter which would help a lot to have a better render... Max only put a little blur...:D

[ihamid]

hiya gpepper

both looks cool to me ! but prefer the one with mask on the head gives an extra touch and draws focus to the eyes!
cheers!

[Lemog]

I prefer with glasses... but about color... that depend of the environment... I don't think that guy can be too much red in the sky... or if he was just under the red wing of the plane... you must certainly adjust that later... bo turf garçon :thumbsup: you an be proud of you... your wife and your daughters must be proud of you :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: to have a great artist at home :applause:

[shakes]

i prefer the glasses over his eyes for sure.

[Zapan]

Yeah I guess it was just a setting problem, because now both of them looks really great so... throw away my previous crit , no sense now.

Now move on friend , the body , the body and the plane :bounce: :bounce:

Now move on friend , the body , the body and the plane :bounce: :bounce:

I guess that U believe that the 2 renders are done, one in Maya and one in Max... They are made both with Max...
There's only a change in the shader and the eyes...

The plane ? Ok...

[Zapan]

OK , eat my foot one more time :banghead: :banghead: , That is to say that your max render rocks :D

And prepare yourself people, the plane is coming, Great news :bounce:

here the start with the teeth... And his eyes become brown...
No material for the moment... Maybe He didn't brush his teeth until 1979...

[Gunilla]

Max or Maya - last renders looks really good, whatever it is :)

His new eyes are perfect...And now he got teeth! :thumbsup:

Certainly more new teeth... :scream: de toute façon, s'il garde la bouche ouverte à l'atterrissage, il risque pas de lui en rester beaucoup dans le bec... huhuhu

Thanks Hamid !

Il commence à en avoir, mais pour l'instant le shader n'est pas génial...
He is getting more teeth but the shader is not really cool at this time...

Here he is with all his teeth ! I'm working on the shader and the texture. Few update later...

[gpepper]

Here is my source:

http://gpepper.free.fr/moiaussi.jpg

What do U think about that ?

[Gunilla]

The lighting is not the same but apart from that I'd say it's probably the same renderer - the modeler must be the same for sure! :scream:

Now, give us the body! :thumbsup:

[pseudonympending]

Great too see him with teeth although I would say that they could be a bit squarer on the front top.

Great to see your reference, you've done a top job and the skins look fantastic. One thing I really like about the photo compared to the model is that you(?) are furrowing your brow, in comparision the model looks a bit shocked/scared. Know what I mean?

[JamesMK]

Scary reference :eek: :D

Teeth seem to be coming along, eyes still need work in the expressivity department.

Still a jolly nice model overall though.

[monsitj]

nice work so far! dont' for get to add wet effect to inner mouth or sulliva( don't sure spelling) , great work man!

here are the teeth...again...
They still look a bit weird ! Maybe like metal... I will tweak that in the final image, I've so much things to do !
I started the body this afternoon. Few screenshots later...

[madshooter]

Teeths are looking cool to me, maybe you can add little yellow colour, might look more cool
Just a suggestion:)

[reiv]

Hi grepper, great work so far :thumbsup:
Concerning the teeth, I didn't notice something wrong until I read you was working on it :). Maybe they look slightly too grey and metallic. Anyway that's not bothered me at the first sight.
Keep it up!

[Dodgeas3d]

Damn this is one ugly face i have ever saw, just hands shakes to smash it :)

Technicaly it looks superb, nice modeling and shading, maybe eyebrows and beard looks a bit off. anyway nice work! Keep it going :applause:

[Lemog]

Hey... mister sharky with his metallic teeth :scream: huhuhu

Seriously... teeth more ivory and real texture tongue, and that will be okay :thumbsup:

[rattlesnake]

i like the tweaks u did, the teeth are ok to me, i get amazed every time i see your texture work is really unveliavable, i think i like the skin color more with a little warmer ligh on the scene...i think this actual ligthing make skin a little too white..but is just personal taste matter.

hey ref picture is coool!

i agree about comment from Mr. Lemog about tongue:thumbsup:

[Lemog]

i think this actual ligthing make skin a little too white..but is just personal taste matter.
Hahahaha... you will see in december my friend, when you are here in Paris... frenchies are very very "white" in winter... :scream: hahaha :thumbsup: ...like aspirins :beer:

The skin looks whiter because I've tweaked it in photoshop... it depends in which environment the character will be...

Hahahaha... you will see in december my friend, when you are here in Paris... frenchies are very very "white" in winter... hahaha ...like aspirins

Not me ! I have the chance to live in the mountains ! And skiing give me some cool texture face !

Here is the remodeling of the hand... In ZB...
Next details and texture...

[Gunilla]

Yeah - good to see what some threatening can do! :scream:

Looks good - perhaps the finger knuckles needs to be streched out a bit? To cover the whole joint if you understand what I mean. The rest is simply superb :thumbsup:

[Lemog]

Yes, totally okay with Gunilla remarks about finger knuckles... enfin, les articulations des doigts... the top of the hand is "top notch"... but maybe you don't zbrushed the finger yet... then... fais pêter la suite guy :thumbsup: good work !

[madshooter]

Nice start with z-brush looks real cool:thumbsup:

[Claireabella]

.....am so impressed with your Z brushing - am trying to get my head round it and perhaps will have mastered it in a year or 2....! Great stuff so far. :thumbsup:

Greats modeling...

Woow :eek:

ZB rules ? no no no GILLOU rules :scream:

Awesome hands Gilles :bounce:

[shakes]

that hand looks really good-keep it up! hope you finish this challenge. :wip:

[gpepper]

Yeah - good to see what some threatening can do! :scream:

Looks good - perhaps the finger knuckles needs to be streched out a bit? To cover the whole joint if you understand what I mean. The rest is simply superb :thumbsup:

I understand, this should be fixed in the next update...

Yes, totally okay with Gunilla remarks about finger knuckles... enfin, les articulations des doigts... the top of the hand is "top notch"... but maybe you don't zbrushed the finger yet... then... fais pêter la suite guy :thumbsup: good work !

Allright copaing ! at this time the fingers aren't tweaked... I will do that soon...

Nice start with z-brush looks real cool:thumbsup:

Thanks Roshan !

.....am so impressed with your Z brushing - am trying to get my head round it and perhaps will have mastered it in a year or 2....! Great stuff so far. :thumbsup:

Thanks Claire ! Zbrush is pretty easy ! You will find it cool !

Greats modeling...

Thanks Carlos !

that's awsome....Still a model or displacement map?

Thanks Pooya ! for the moent this is only a model... Don't know if I will use any displacement...

Woow :eek:

ZB rules ? no no no GILLOU rules :scream:

Awesome hands Gilles :bounce:

Thanks Steph !

that hand looks really good-keep it up! hope you finish this challenge. :wip:

Thanks John ! I will try to finish it !

I restart the body cos' the geometry wasn't good for me... This is the REbegining...

Here are few changes of the hand... This is a screenshot of maya. I have to go again in ZB to reshape it and make the texture...

[sergioKomic]

ask yourself this: do I really need the hands in ULTRA HI res?


If yes, go back to ZB if no, they are GREAT!

[daWinky]

You're a maniac...;) , the last update on hands was almost perfect:bowdown: ...well, I'm curious to see what you are doing now...:bounce:

[TheFirstAngel]

ahrgh, can't believe you're starting over again, you're simply nuts! lol now burst your nitros and rock em all, great start on the lowpoly and the hand as well, so go go go!

[Gunilla]

You're starting over!? I agree with Sacha - you're nuts (in a good way of course) :thumbsup:
New hands looks even better - maybe still a little short for the middle finger knuckle.
Now, Go, Go, Go :wip:

[madshooter]

Nice start on body dude and hand looks great:thumbsup: Waiting to see more updates Just -

Go go go....:bounce:

[Zapan]

Yep hands look even better (I thought that wasn't possible but here it is):)

Great start on the body , I hope this time the shape pleases you

[AIR]

I have to say,this is just one of the worst threads I have came across,I mean,,
to sell this stuff as an art and to say that the dog has tail,,,,,ok,,im kidding.

This is awsome thread,I have lost pretty time going trough it.
You make zbrushin look like it's easy.
How do you make that unwrap texture,
cos When I make my texture in zbrush,it looks like thousand of tiny bits scattered across 2d surface.

BWHAAAAA:cry:
respect.

[rattlesnake]

very cool reshaping mate..is working perfect in my opinion...:thumbsup:

[CharlesVarenne]

Hi..your work look good.
I was wondering. I just look at your WIP and you said that you had some problem connection with Maya for a Misss Fast Shader when apparently it's working well in 3DS MAx. Did you manage to fix it in Maya?????
I had the same problem with Maya so I took another software.

[gpepper]

ask yourself this: do I really need the hands in ULTRA HI res?


If yes, go back to ZB if no, they are GREAT!

Thanks Sergio ! Yes I need a extra high resolution ! :surprised

You're a maniac...;) , the last update on hands was almost perfect:bowdown: ...well, I'm curious to see what you are doing now...


-sabrina

Well, not so maniac but perfectionist...

ahrgh, can't believe you're starting over again, you're simply nuts! lol now burst your nitros and rock em all, great start on the lowpoly and the hand as well, so go go go!

No I didn't restart all the things, just the body. Cos the base mesh was wrong near the pubis area... It is just half an hour of work...

You're starting over!? I agree with Sacha - you're nuts (in a good way of course)

I go ! Thanks Gun !

Nice start on body dude and hand looks great:thumbsup: Waiting to see more updates Just -

Go go go....

Thanks Roshan !
Update will come tonigh, probably...
Maybe some ZB demonstration in video, to show U how I will texture the hand...

Are U kidding ? mouahahahah ! ;)
I send U back this joke ! ;)
Don't tell me that ZB skills seem to be easy when I show it to U ! Look at your thread ! Your ZB skills are great too !
Don't know what is your problem... Maybe I should see to give U my opinion... probably some fix seem in the texture slot of the tools menu would helps U a little...

I had the same problem with Maya so I took another software.

The problem was fixed... It seemed to be a scale problem... My geometry was to little and Maya wasn't able to render it correctly...

Here is a quick render of the begining of my texture in ZB... This is made from a photo of my hand, using projection master with a texture projection from a 3D plane... A quick tutorial coming soon...

[Pooyag]

great work on the texture there buddy, it's just a little shinny which i know you'll take care later. and i guess you've noticed that little white think between index and middle finger, actually more on the middle one. i know that's nothing to be worried about, so keep Going man.:thumbsup:

Thanks Pooya !
Yes, the shader is just a quick shader from Zbrush. The final render will be done in 3Dsmax with misss fast skin...
The area where are white color are not been painted at this time... I'm still working on it...

Here is my texturing video demonstration to show U my technique to get real texture quickly...
The texture is not relly finished in this video cos' it would take to much time to show the entire process !
have fun watching it, I hope it would be helpful to some of U.
Sorry, I don't have any microphone, so I couldn't speak during the recording...

[Pooyag]

it was really good man, i didnt know that technique:thumbsup:

[gpepper]

it was really good man, i didnt know that technique:thumbsup:
