[DimitrisLiatsos]

:wavey: Hi Poju !!!

well...soldier's proportions looks ok ...but his face and especially his eyes look a little bit wierd to me...eyebrows are not so defined!

hope it helps ...keep it up ...i will be back for more!!!!

..and happy new year:bounce:

[Poju]

Thanks DimitrisLiatsos.

I smoothed corners of eyes a bit(there is no eyebrows yet)
I allso added few details and tweaked materials and now i think that hat needs something, any suggestions?

Anyway here is update:

[CGmonkey]

Nice character! :bounce:

Are you going to animate the bastard ? :P

[Poju]

I might try, but my skills are not really good enough for that, but well see.

what about some brown tones blended with the greens? It would add more contrast to the skin.

could you post more views? and wireframes?

I like the concept a lot :D He needs a big shotgun!

[BiTMAP]

argg what is with the green! GOOD CAMO IS NOT GREEN!!!!

Id suggest you make it a tan based colour, with strips of black, then splotches of light gray under the strips, then flecks of green.

then for extra contrast some burnt alumond coloured strips with some orange and some brown as well, that will blend into ANY forest!

[Dave Black]

Just a note, BiTMAP...

It is more important for camo to break-up your outline, than to make you blend in with your enviroment. Green is fine. United States Woodland Camo is one of the best, if not the best, in the world. It has plenty of green.

Though you make some valid points.

Poju:

Looks pretty good, but if you are planning on doing any facial animation, you might want to relax the face abit. Needs a more nutral shape.

:D

[dreamfrog]

wooha...Thats pretty close..
Scary enough..:surprised

Very nice! :applause:

We tried green, brown, dark red and black uniforms..

They all had the same effect. Its all about removing humaniod shapes and creating flowing lines..

[Dave Black]

Grey actually works pretty well too. :D

Cool texture :thumbsup:

Just an opinion, I would work a bit on the eyes (no offense but they look like plastic).

[Poju]

dreamfrog: :beer:

Rukuwa:Yes i've notice that, must do something about it, thanks

I'm thinking to redo hands, or atleast get rid of one finger and make them thiker.
Have u got something to my "to do" list?
