Title: Jimmy
Name: Joe Collins
Country: USA
Software: LightWave 3D, Photoshop

Hi everyone,

This character is my first experiment/study with the Worley Labs G2 shader for LightWave. The scene uses one area light with a little bit of radiosity. I ended up taking the guy into photoshop to paint in some hair.

Thanks!

Looks like Spike from Buffy. Hair does seem to photshopped. I'd try and make it more natural. The whites of the eyes seem too grean as well. Otherwise nice work.

I intensely dislike the hair, but I really like the facial modeling and texture/shader, as for the resemblance he to me looks more like one of the characters in DS9 :) .

Excellent likeness to aforementioned James Marsters,

The only things that let it down are the hair and the image looks a bit washed out

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your feedback.

Looks like Spike from Buffy.

I did use James Marsters' head as a reference. I didn't want it to resemble him exactly so I kind of deviated from the references. After your replies, I think I might just go ahead and go all out in making "Spike." That would be a lot of fun, plus I could get the whole vampire morph/displacement/transformation thing happening. Cool idea.

Now, about that hair...:scream:...

Thanks again, all of your ideas and crits are invaluable.

Your pal,
Joe

Thats great I saw your avatar and I make a little research to see the thread what a surprise because I am currently making a spike model too with the vamp morphing thing...Is it a active model or an old one?

Well, the model is a nonstop WIP, and I don't think it will ever be totally finished. I'm always changing stuff, developing different topology, morphs, expressions, etc. Lately, I've been kind of busy searching for work (art and nonart related) just to stay alive, and I haven't had a whole lot of time to do anything.

Thanks,

Joe
