...ya skank.

[Gandalf]

Wonderfull concept :)
"elvish woman and a hobbit" an audacious hobbit :P

[Equinoxx]

thx gandalf, but about him being audacious, i can only guess at what that means, and ask you how YOU would feel if you're only half a hobbits height ;)

[Gandalf]

Sorry, my bad eglish... :wip:
My word were not addressed to the Pygmys, but to the lucky and "audacious" hobbit that joined with an elf :p

[bentllama]

Neat concept. Seems a bit Gollum-like in proportions...love the spear...needs a blowgun!...I can't wait to see more.

[Koma]

nice sketch ,and wow happy hobbit i wanna sleep with an elves to he he ,happy modelling dude:thumbsup: :wip:

[Equinoxx]

bent, yeah i know, don't worry, in the end, it can't be confused with gollum. i'm gonna make some small changes in the modelingfase. Koma, thx. and don't we all ;)

[wiklander]

can't wait to see it done :bounce:

[Psy]

Good luck with it mate. :thumbsup:

[Equinoxx]

Psy, thx man, good luck to you too . . . looking forward to your craft.

ok peeps, change of plans . .. started modeling the pygmy, but didn't like the way it was heading, so I did a new concept, gonna past that soon supported by a new background story . ..

[erilaz]

Ooooh! Will it be even better than the pigmy? (I suppose it must if you're redoing the concept!) I can't wait to what you have next. :D

[Remi]

huh?...doh....i liked the original...well...I guess i'll have to wait and see the new idea....:D

[Equinoxx]

well then it's pretty quick 'n dirty, but you'll catch the drift . . .

this is waht i'm gonna do :D

[leigh]

Wow, that's a BIG neck :surprised
Looking good, ya skankfest :D

The face kinda reminds me of those ripper creatures from Tank Girl... but only slightly.
I'm looking forward to seeing how you do the hair :twisted:

[Fetus23]

waiting for the 3d!! :wip: :wip:

[rolhionjs]

Very nice start with modeling ! :buttrock:

[Equinoxx]

ali, less whining, more modeling :twisted:

martijn . . . cheers :buttrock:

[leigh]

It sucks because you've just gone to bed, leaving me lonely here :cry:
So I hate you.

:p

[Virtuoso]

Hello Equinoxx..............:wavey:

Well,well, nice start in the modeling,very clean and interseting features to check out. he looks wise,tough and at the same time gentle,as if he does,nt look for trouble,but if he has to he can handle himself very well. Am I right?:)

I like the creation thus far very much. The concept too is real impressive.I'll be back for sure to check out your progress. Fine job.:thumbsup: :beer:

[AgentX]

Wow. I like it! Very good job! I can't wait to see more.:thumbsup:

[coCoKNIght]

Looking great so far, you're fast! :thumbsup:

[mv]

Very nice! I dig the front view. I agree Virtuoso, he looks wise ; that's the first thing I thought when I saw it :) Very expressive.

[frakke]

Well, it doesn't look like sly ;)

Very nice flow you got there. It looks truly organic. The lower lip has a rather sharp edge though which doesn't quite fit in imo. The inner corner of the eye lashes needs a little more detail too.

I look forward to see the progress on this one :thumbsup:

[Equinoxx]

thx for the nice comments all . ..

virtuoso and m@ . . . yeah that's exactly the look i'm going for . . . :D

frakke, sorry mate, i know it ain't sly ;) i just couldn't find the energy to start that one at the time. Great to see you here tho ;)
also, you're right bout the lip, gonna be fixed in the next update

[Equinoxx]

well then, time for tonites update :D
made his jaw wider and his head slightly rounder, as well as moved his eyes outward a bit. refined the nose-area and smoothed out his lowerlip/

need to finetune certain areas, but the mass has been layed . . .

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_08.jpg

[dmonk]

Looking Good! Are you gonna model the hair or use a hair sim?

[Equinoxx]

i honestly don't know that yet . . . i gues i'll cross that bridge when i come to it.

[leigh]

Looking great, my dog-walking friend :thumbsup: (and fellow skank)

Something that I didn't notice when you showed me earlier is that the mouth seems to be welded closed - ie. the lips appear to be joined :surprised Are they?

He also looks a bit like Ice-T :D

[Remi]

Excellent work Equinoxx....looking really good.....keep it up...don't know if I like the dangly lobes though...but what does that matter...it's a great model...keep going:thumbsup:

[derelict]

Very nice nox!

Er shouldnt the spear face up front?

[nibo]

Slick as usuall Equinoxx!
I hope it will be "Gangor-quality"!!!
Maybe put some more "drelletjes" on him....heheh
:airguitar

[Raul-Reznek]

Hey! why didn't u show me this!!! :D

Great so far

But he looks a LOT younger now tah tin the concept.
What u need to do is widen the cheeks, make them a bit boney.
And rounder the skull up, more bully like :D you bad-ass bully :D

Later Eq!

[Joril]

Oh yeah, this looks like an Equinoxx.
You can see this style from miles away. :D
About time for an update I recon :p

[dark_lotus]

I'm really diggin those ears!! Its defintley coming along nicely (even better than my spelling )

A hobbit and an elf ey? That visual just doesn't work lol :p

But the model is nicely detailed and I cannot wait to see more!!!!!!!!!

and whats this about a secret????

[Equinoxx]

update comming tonite. hadn't had time to do anything last nite, so . . .

as for a hobbit & an elf. that was for the pygmie . . . need to change the story, cause this is a whole other type of character . . .

and the secret, well, the pygmie concept was done before the actual announcement of the challenge.

but since i'm doing a different concept, no problems there i'd hope :p

[OZ]

YESSSS....U ROX! Very neat modeling!! Im waiting 4 updates!!!:bounce:

[Remi]

Waitin' for that update you promised....it's looking great so far...can't wait to see more...so common already:D :thumbsup:

[leigh]

He has actually got an update - this creature is coming along really nicely too... dunno why he hasn't posted it yet.

I can assure you all that it's looking great :thumbsup: hehehe

[coCoKNIght]

Hey Equinoxx! Show us the update!!:bounce: :bounce:

[Equinoxx]

sorry bout that my friends . . . was REALLY tired and felt REALLY sick last night so i completely forgot to post it . . .

sorry to've dissapointed you :blush:

anyhoo, here it is then :D

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_10.jpg

[Fetus23]

This is looking wonderful Equinoxx!! He looks very majestic and wise. I really like the drippy theme (the ears on this fellow) you've got going with your characters.....very unique. Can't wait to see more!!
:thumbsup: :bounce:

fetus
:beer:

[olivier Defaye]

nice modeling
can t wait to see the rest of the body

[azazel]

great model, EQ, just like the sketch:thumbsup:

[Equinoxx]

thx you guys :beer:

also updated my 1st post in this thread to accomodate for the background story for this fellow ;)

[rolhionjs]

wow ! Very nice modeling you've got here ! Could we have a chance to see an unsmooth wireframe ?

Keep going man ! :beer:

[mv]

Very nice modelling! that's a proud guy ...
yeah an unsmoothed wire please!

[SirManfred]

Nice stuff, mate!
Keep it up :)

[dark_lotus]

AWESOME!!

Coming along beatifully!!!

[Virtuoso]

The noble creature grows both in quality and quantity. It's a very elegant and dangerous looking creature thus far Equinoxx..................I like it very much.Clean and precise modeling as well.:beer:

[Mentat7]

This is looking sweet! I like the idea of the braided beard/sideburns. :thumbsup:

[Cogliostros]

A breath of fresh air...

This is one character I believe could exist in Tolkien's world... A race thats wise, powerful, and for the good of Middle Earth.

Kudos to u. :thumbsup:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

:bounce:
Excellent work so far....bravo Equinoxx !!!..and great proportions

This is a guy that really lives in Tolkin stories.

Honeslty nothing to crit/say/dislike so far...:thumbsup:

[Equinoxx]

as promised, and ofcourse way overdue . . .

the wireframe

you might notice that his shoulder area is slightly different from the last render . . . i beefed it up :D

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/wire_01_small.jpg

higher-rez (http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/wire_01_big.jpg)

[OZ]

Another good shot from Equinoxx...i think that the ears are great!...:applause:

[rolhionjs]

I agree with Oz :) That's a very very nice modeling you have here ! :buttrock:

[Nomolos]

Very nice work bro! Love it! :)

[nibo]

THE NOMOLOS!!! :airguitar

I think the neck is a bit long...
Because he's a muscle-guy the neck should look even shorter.
Know-what-I-mean?
He's look'n very wise, (just like Gangor) You know I love that look!
Keep going bro! :airguitar

[dur23]

Perfect as always equinoxx. Hurry it up tho b4 the mob gets to anxious! :D

[Equinoxx]

thx for the support people :D

dur, no worries, planning to come a long way tonite. so an update is on it's way :cool:

[SheepFactory]

:buttrock: rock on man , the model is looking better by every update.

:beer:

[Equinoxx]

ah finally started on the body . . . still need to tweak lots o stuff, but here's the mid-evening update :D

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_11.jpg

[Virtuoso]

Your creation continues to evolve very well Equinoxx................I like the porportions of the body,they are very well balanced and are spot on clean modeling thus far. It's really coming along well to be a top notch creation. Fine work....:beer:

[leigh]

Looking great ya skank! Very very nice modelling - I see you really nailed the plexus area :thunbsup:
I really like the hint of the ribcage too - great stuff! :D

I see you also got the nipples into a les aroused state than what they were previously hehehe ;)

[ilasolomon]

very good model Equi, that's very well done.
a lil crit: if i were you i do something with the chin, just below the chin, with that bump. but maybe it's one of that race's characteristics!
:beer:

[Equinoxx]

i did say he was a blacksmith didn't i :D?

worked the arms tonite . . .

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_12.jpg

[Joebount]

Excellent !

I just don't like the drop at the bottom of his ear !

Keep it up man ! :thumbsup:

[rolhionjs]

cool to see finally some part of his body, coz i didn't have any ideas of the way you will go through it ! Very tough guy ! I hope to never hug this one ;) keep going !! :buttrock:

[dmonk]

That's awsome so far. this is coming along great. can't wait to see more.

[lildragon]

Qui man you come a looooooooong way from chicken man :p heheh looking ace bud :thumbsup: look at those massive forearms :surprised he must've been pounding metal for centuries!!

salud

[olivier Defaye]

THE MODELING IS VERY NICE
maybe the arms are too big even this guys work very hard.
definitly awesome

[nibo]

I don't wanna argue with this "lil" fella...
:argh:

lookn awsome dude! Keep it up!
:airguitar

[shoey]

awsome stuff qui, great modelling.:thumbsup:

[fellah]

good, he looks very powerful with those new arms, great addition! I hope you'll give him really big hands to.
but, the eartips looks like they would fit a nerdy little creature more than this muscular beast, don't you think?(kill my darlings)

also, the "bottom" of his collarbones are a bit to exaggerated imo, drags to much attention. maybe you could put them closer together to.

and the bellyButton, I guess it's wip. so I won't comment on it!

all just ideas, nothing you have to change ofcourse, very good start!

take care

[Robbert]

nice character, i love the big arms!
Keep it up ;)

[azazel]

With this muscles reminds me one wrestler, named Bill Goldberg....;)

[BlueCougar]

Moving along nicely....awesome!:thumbsup:

[Dreamwave]

wow man, I like his arms!!!

damn he's stronggggggggg :buttrock:

[toxichimp]

:eek: Those muscles look pretty much perfect.

Amazing work... could you show a wireframe of it? :D

*edit* nevermind hehe, found it on a previeus page :beer:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

The face of your character kicks ass!!!

Great body structure!!!!:thumbsup:
i imagine his hands will be enormous!!!

[Raul-Reznek]

lookin good Eq, i as well have a update on the 'butcher'

The arms are lookng excellent, tho i think u need to refine a bit, don't u think, make this guy looks smart as well as big, in the end, a smith is a wise man :D

just kiddin, do what u think best, tho i suggest gloves and grindel frost gigant belt ;D


Cheerz!

[Equinoxx]

wow what feedback and replies :D i'm honored . . .

allow me then to post sommin for all of you for good support :)

and 360 turnround can be found here (http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/turnround.avi)

cheers all

[Virtuoso]

It just keeps coming along real nice Equinoxx. Fine clean job,very proportionate as well.At first I thought the forearms would be a bit too exxagerated,but now with the wrists and hands it looks right on.:thumbsup:

He really has this noble look to him,and firce at the same time,that's what I see at least.Also a kind face,but don't mess with him at the same time. Real cool work,keep up the fine work Equinoxx.:thumbsup: :beer:

[nibo]

:love:
One crit: Decrease that bulge on his underarm a bit (cause now it looks like a bicep!) and then....
I think we got a winner!!!! WOOOOHOOOOO
This is def Gangor-quality!
I really love this guy!
Com'on, keep modeling!!!

[Equinoxx]

Virtuoso: thx and i will :beer:

Nibo: not sure . . . I'll have a look, see if i can make it look more natural ;)

[Willem]

That looks nice

go on!

[Edge]

Hey Equinoxx,

Those huge hands looks great!
I do however feel that the forearms should be a tad smaller.
This guy has had some serious workout... :D

Keep rockin'

Cheers.

[genesis max]

Great modeling, his face looks very wise and absolutely real.:thumbsup:
Now things that are wrong: His forearms and hands don't look well comparing it to the deltoids (shoulders) and pectoraliis (chest).Sugestion:Either make chest and shoulders bigger or make forearms and hands a tad smaller so he could look better proportioned.That's just my sugestion,everything else looks great,keep rockiong. :buttrock:

[AgentX]

Yeah Equinoxx I have to agree with the last to post. I know it is a fantasy race, but those forearms are huge! lol. I do love the face and the torso though, very nice!

[nick]

just now this is one of my favs. Interesting character and superb modelling!!!!! :applause:

[Equinoxx]

thx for the crits, eventho i'm at this point to strongheaded to take em to heart. they're usefull. thx for that

and so it all comes together

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_14.jpg
http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_14_wire.jpg
Turn around here (http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/turnround_2.avi)

[mv]

That's rockin', Equinoxx :buttrock:

I think you could work a bit more on the transition between legs and feet. Looks a bit vague for now (where are the two "tips " of the tibia, that usually protrude just between the foot and the leg,on either side?.. you placed one but it's too high..looks strange imho )

Keep it up, that's great work !

[azazel]

Looking good... dunno why but the head seems to stand out a bit. Maybe because head has sharper features than the rest of the body (which is strong yet kinda soft)?

anyway:thumbsup:

[leigh]

I have ONE question - how does he please his missus? :surprised

Hehehehe :twisted:

Looking GREAT :applause: I really love the way this has turned out! I love the hands and feet - I always love the way you model hands and feet - they ALWAYS look great! (;))

I don't have any crits though, I love the way this looks!

[magicm]

lookin good again equinoxx!

You've already heard my crits, but overall I think you're doing a mighty fine job!

guess it's time for his tools! (and I don't mean THOSE tools)

---> :wip:


keep 'm coming!

[swag]

wau - very nice modeling here :applause: i like the proportion
i agree to m@ (the transition between legs and feet)

[nervous_twitch]

Looking good man :thumbsup:

My only concern is his legs. They seem a bit short, and his waist leaves something to be desired, but the design and edgelooping is superb. :D

[Remi]

Great job equinoxx....for the rotation anim though...try rotating the character instead of the camera...that way you can see the back in the light too...just a suggestion...also, his ankle looks a little high up on the leg...other than that....it's boss....looking great though:thumbsup:

[Virtuoso]

Hi Equinoxx..................Looking good. I think the overall design is both fun and the character still retains a fierce but noble look. I think perhaps you could consider the toes to come down just a slight bit in the Y scale, but that's just a taste thing.:)

Fine work,and just wanted to say keep it up,to see him at the finish line will be a pleasure.:beer:

[coCoKNIght]

:) Great modelling!
(reminds me of the butcher in Diablo)

[nibo]

Top notch! as frigg'n usual.
You already know about my critics, but for the record:

- Try to blend his calf a bit with his ankle. Right now it looks to much like his butt. :surprised
- The arm-buldge is much better now, so :thumbsup:
- The feet are a bit square-like, but I know you will give'm some nice bootys, so :shrug:
- but last and not least....PLEASE give'm a weenie, because you have a reputation to keep up!!! :bounce:

and then.... IT'S HAMMERTIME!!!

[Hexodam]

wow :buttrock:

[somlor]

Wow, this model is really coming along well! Great design and the muscles are very well defined. I see what azazel is saying with the sharper features in the face, whereas the body has a softer feeling with more curved geometry. Maybe if you go in and very selectively sharpen key areas of the body, like the knees, and wrists and ankles.. basically the protruding bony areas ... it will lend a more consistent feel to the character.

(s)

[night goblin]

whooohoooo
looking verry nice .........


nibo moooooohoooaaaa......:drool:

[Equinoxx]

thx for the comments all :D

tis bout time for an update don't ya think

shirt is temp. so is the hammer. boots need work and the braids are - UrgBraid ™ © . . . and need to intertwine them with the actual hair.

here goes.

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_15.jpg

[Cogliostros]

Holy Smokes! Give that boy some Undies! Pants! Knickers! SOMETHING! haha :eek: :thumbsup:

boots and a t-shirt, hahaha... u rock.

[Equinoxx]

hehe yeah i haven't gotten to that part yet. probably gonna give him a kilt with some toolbelts :D

[Cogliostros]

ROFL, if Tolkiens world was invaded by members of the Y.M.C.A. that my friend would be a member! :beer:

lol the toolbelt :scream:

keep up the good work!

[rolhionjs]

Go for the Kilt ! :) Excellent Model ! :)

[Equinoxx]

Originally posted by Cogliostros

:surprised you think he looks gay :cry:

Strike, Will do man. great that i actually got you to like my model.
Yours is def to my liking as well man. in fact, i'm gonna go over to your thread and state it for the record ;)

[dmonk]

Can you post a close up of the head witht the hair. I think this is turning out great.

[l_farley13_l]

Yeah I agree! Teh model is turing out excelent!! Only comment would be to mind the ruged nature of him when modleing hair etc. it just looks soo nice in the concept.

Farley13

[Jeebus]

Hmmm... Maybe the gay look comes from the belly shirt. It does seem out of place a little. Everything else seems tip top. Maybe if you cut that shirt down the middle and make it a vest it wouldn't seem so wierd.

I def think you should go for the kilt. :)

[chadlychoo]

Superb modeling! You should make him dirtier, like cuts in the clothes and stuff. Great work! :beer:

[DimitrisLiatsos]

:bounce: Excellent work so far Equinoxx .

Now u can focus on all the little stuff in order to give the detail that i know u can give. Also if i may suggest , in his clothes try to give the feeling of his hard work (dirt, cuts and stuff).

Very clean work!!!


:thumbsup:

[BoromirNo1]

this is one of me favs for this competion. cannt wait to see a textured version up close. :applause:

[Aearon]

hey equinoxx, damn nice model you've got there

i don't really know about that fancy tank-top though ;)

[Equinoxx]

just to get things straight, it's not a tanktop . . . when done, it should look like the bottomhalf of the shirt is ripped of . . . so at 1st, it was a full length shirt . . . but due to his bulkiness and his labour, the shirt got ripped at all sides . . .

as for the hair, yeah dunno i'f i'm sticking to braids, or go for that 'dreads' look . . . in the end, no matter how, it'll look like the concept ;)

[Edge]

Originally posted by Equinoxx
[B]just to get things straight, it's not a tanktop . . .
Tanktops rule :buttrock: (Even on this fellah :D)

Just kidding. No, I see where you're going for and I like the concept. The ripped up shirt looks like an idea that would work and comes close to the Middle Earth reality of working beasts.
I would also rip the boots up a bit to give it the working look.

Liking the process and anxiously waiting for more.

Cheers.

[urgaffel]

Don't you dare get rid of the braids! I think they look awesome!

;)

[Equinoxx]

it's that time ladies & gentleman . . .

UPDATE TIME WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

still lots of temporary stuff, especially the texture on the kilt [not the actual texture, but the uvmap]

the kilt itself needs work too . ..

Need to add buckles to the waistbelts, puches, tools,
need to add braids on the side of his head.
Need to add laces to his armpieces
and then some . ..

just a note, i'll be snowboarding for a week coming friday, so no update after this one till i'm back :cry: but boarding is cool :xtreme:

http://equinoxx.cgcommunity.com/challenges/chathar/chathar_wip_16.jpg

[SirManfred]

Ooooh yeah! That looks awsome!

[levin]

oh wow... equinoxxx signature style!!!:bounce:

[Mangled Poly]

Hahaha this guy is looking awesome that skirt is cool! to bad your a mod, and cant win it :/ Anyways its looking awesome

[Fetus23]

Hey nice update Equinoxx!!...I'm really liking the plad.. :thumbsup: ...He's looking really good, can't wait for your next update!!..Have fun snow boarding.....I just got from a skii trip to banff (canadian rockies)...conditions were beautiful!!! Have fun man!!

:beer:
fetus

[nibo]

:airguitar

I think the head doesn't need any more hair than this!! (only some brows offcourse..)
You better check the kilt and put some nice folds inthere, put some wornout textures on it, and voila!
:love:
(Skip that boardingtrip and get to work!!!...that's an order!!!)
:beer:

[bentllama]

2 kilts!

two characters with kilts... damn...and 2 mods doing them nonetheless. double damn.

:)

looking good so far.

I like the overall feel, and the softness to the character...classic Equinoxx work. :) Love the hands.

crits [IMO]:

- boots seemed half formed, not defined enough
- I dont like the "axe handle curve" on the hammer
- ribs and belly seem less worked than the arms in detail



:beer:

[rolhionjs]

Cool kilt !!! It fits perfect on him ! But where's his t-shirt ?? You're gonna let his torso like that ? or maybe wear a kinda jacket for example ?

Wow... stop questionning strike ;)


That's gonna be a great character for sure my friend !!! i'm curious to see the final textures ! :) :beer:

[Equinoxx]

Sir manfred, Levin, THX :D

Magled Poly . . I know . . . life's a bitch :shrug:

Fetus, will do ;)
Nibo, SHADDUP, NO WAY i'm passing off the boardingtrip :P

Bent, TWO mods doing kilts ?? who's the other one?
about the crits, the boots def need work i agree.
the Hammer is just a sizereference thing slapped together in 2 minutes. Gonna redo that totally ;)
as for the ribs, i don't really know . . . what would you change then ?? make the edges harder ?

Strike, i threw away the shirt, he's gonna be barechested.. would be a waste if i hid that chest with a shirt wouldn't it ?
believe me, it'll be goodonce textured ;)

thx for the support all :D

- I am the other mod... read my description on the first page...i switched ideas awhile back :) [dont worry...my kilt is longer and more pleated. :) kinda like these - www.utilikilts.com]
- i jst didn't think teh hammer handle was big enough for those mitts of his :)
- as for the ribs...they just feel a little "melty" to me now...hard edges wont definitely be the fix... I am unsure as to the fix...

i await an update...I will work on mine while I wait :)

[Equinoxx]

[AgentX]

Thats look great man. I like the size, and stature of his character. Looks great.

[Equinoxx]

i am not dead :D . . . yet . . .

started doing some texture works . . .

what ya thinks, lookin for some c&c here, since it's the 1st time i'm doing some actual UV & texturing

both the belt model & texture aren't finished, the belt needs more holes and i noticed the bucklepin is on the wrong side.
texture is a quick slap-on

[coCoKNIght]

[Virtuoso]

Hey,hey,hey there..............................I like this very much,from the start actually.But it's gone up a notch since then.Very nice details. Belt buckles to the all important intricate details of the stitching.Very nice job Equinoxx,I love the fact you have taken him that extra Mile( 1.7 Kilometers ;)) ........I Really enjoy this creation from body work to the details...........

Hope to see some more,until the end of the challenge.It's very well done.:beer: :thumbsup:

[mage111]

im really lovin the model equinoxx, something about the character just makes him look ancient.

dont know if you decided anything on the buckle color, but i thought a worn silver would look best in my opinion.

otherwise sh** looks great man, really, well done!

[leigh]

That kilt looks GREAT :applause:
The leather on the belt looks wicked too, but needs a wee bit of dirt here and there :) Especially on the edges - just grime it up a little bit ;)

Now get that buckle done!!

A secret message for you:
You are a skank!!

[magicm]

lookin' mighty fine again equinoxx!
though I do agree with leigh on the belt

keep on going! :wip:

;)

[Equinoxx]

- Oz, Coco, thx for the kind words :beer:

- Virtuoso, cheers man, i try to go as many extra miles as possible :D

- Mage, haven't realy thought about the buckles yet, might do silver, or else corroded metal . . . we'll see :D

Leigh, M, your wishes are my command.

here be the work on the belts :D

The leather patern is too big IMO.

I continous following your thread.. in the silence but I keep an eye around here, sorry for not constructive critics! but not time! just say I like very much how is getting now with textures! :) Keep working! :wip:

[leigh]

Looking ace :thumbsup:

I agree that perhaps the leather pattern is a little large though...
But the colour changes are awesome! Very cool :D

The bump map on the cloth looks great too, although it doesn't seem to be showing in some parts :surprised

[mv]
