:shrug: What have I dun wrong?

Here's gramps (second attempt).
May be familiar to some from tutorials Amaan Akram and I unleashed a while back. We were playing with the idea of a short, so I thought I'd plug gramps in the lead role...

scary ?? humm i dont think he look scary..he only look really old..
the haire are great but the brown are better..
i love hes eyes area.. they are so "life-full"
i should agree for the pull-over .. he need more work..
and may be an other light scheme .. ( i juste think the main light is a bit too bright.. )

cool work..
i stay tuned and wait to see more of him..
i think about stuff .. like hand,pant,shoe and my be a sweet environemt ??? -- like watching tv.. :wip: :thumbsup: :wip: :thumbsup:

>he definitivly have too much theet ..
Yeah, I think he can take them all out at once ;-)

>the clothes need work
The sweater is lo-res. Forgot to up the subdivision. Trying to get a decent solution between an animatible model and a soft-looking, ribbed sweater :hmm:

>he is damn scary
:surprised You should get a better clos-up of those nose hairs!

I've got his hands done, his pants are modeled. Gotta get another view done...

wow love the look of the skin and the eyes.

i think his hair needs Brylcreem.

he has this unkempt look and then there's this smile...makes him look crazy :)

Very nice modeling......I agree with the teeth comments....I also would tone down the smile a bit...make it look like it's hard for him to smilee....a struggle if you know what I mean...he looks very old and decrepit.....Very nice altogether though....keep it up....:thumbsup:

Looks good, i agree with eveything said so far. Maybe add a little bit of color to those veins? Maybe some small textural veins as well.

Maybe add a little bit of hair to the nose?

Keep it up, great work!

I like it alot! I would like to see a larger range of color in the skin. At any given time you can see greens, blues, reds and purples tones flushed throughout the skin. I understand this isn't ment to be photoreal, but a little more variation could only help.

the only other thing I see is that the eye ball should be closer to the eye lids

that muscle on the jawbone (near the ear) seems a bit flat.

c'mon David. It's a weekend. Let's see some new renders :)
