Races of Middle Earth - character - CgEye

[CgEye]

this is what i got so far...

[mtmckinley]

nice start! :D

[Rye]

Nice! You sure are fast! Thats what 2 hours of modeling? Very cool :)

[ilasolomon]

hey! this looks very good indeed, cool start man, keep it up! :) :cheers: I like the form & curves

[CgEye]

thanx guys,

Rye - that accually took more than 2 hours :D , more like 5-6.

I started modelling a bit before i openned my thread.

[CgEye]

here's another update...

[CgEye]

hey!!
don't all speek at once! :p

well, i'm releasing another update..
i changed his body a bit - his legs have 2 knees now, and wait till you see the arms :surprised

[ilasolomon]

shalom, It's coming along very nicely & eye-catching :) salute

[Wiz]

Raphi.. its doing very well..

Ahla avoda!

[cakeypigdog]

hi mate,
this character is cool. :buttrock: i think he probably has my favourite head in the whole competition.... he looks like a cross between something that would be in an odworld game and a golum-gone-superevil-esque creature. (this is a good thing! i like it very very much). dont be dishartened by the lack of coments so far: ive only had one(!) person comment on my work!!!
keep up the good work mate. i for one am very excited as to how this one turns out!
:beer:

[CgEye]

ila_solomon, Wiz, cakeypigdog - thanx alot for the support!!

well, here's another update for now...

[CgEye]

this is sort of the NEW look i'm going for

[freerider]

very cool! :applause:

This seems to be coming along really nice. Love the design!

[azazel]

Aren't the arms growing from the wrong place ;)? I mean arms are usually above the ribcage, not under it...:surprised I know it's probably intentional, but why?

[CgEye]

Yup, it is intentional... i'm kinda sick of everybody using the human body for creatures. A middle earth race is a call for going wild and creating wakky stuff. So this is my way way of being Wakky :D

i started with the texturing, here's an update

[dur23]

really well modeled and concepted but it freaks me right out....those arms resting below the ribcage like thats is just freaky...

But thats a good thing, cause he's not supposed to be cute and cuddly:)

[CgEye]

ha ha , thanx dur23. yeah, it's suuposed to be freaky and intence.
Bt the way, i really love your thread. great modelling and texuring!! it's an honor for me to recieve your compliments

take care

[Fetus23]

ya!!..thats looking awsome CGeye...and in such a short time!!..I like the unconventional bone setup...something different is always good!!:thumbsup:
keep going man!!

:beer:
fetus

[CgEye]

Thanx fetus23. this is the 4th day and i'm really surprised that it's going so fast. but it great, 'cause it will give me a lot of time for tweeking and setting a background for the character.

Here's another update, still no hands. i just couldn't wait to see this guy with textures :)

[CgEye]

and a wireframe...

[CgEye]

ok, here's another one:

[Stygian]

It looks really good and I like the Non-standard antomy that your going for . My only crit would be the visible muscle structure on the back and chest . 1. with his arms that low he wouldn't really have those pectorals on the chest and there seems to be a lack of muscle structure on the back to support those lower arms. I know I'm throwing science in with the fantasy but I wanted to say that I liked it and hate posting without some sort of Crit . :thumbsup:

[CgEye]

thanx for the anatomy tip Stygian, u have a good point there.

here's a concept i'm working on, it will be a "wild life at night" photo.

[l_farley13_l]

H ha !! That looks great!! He really jumps out at you! love the saterated colors - only crit would be slght lack of detail arround the mouth ( no not the teeth - they're rediculous!!)

great pose!

Farley13

[Satyricon]

Nice work! Very good model and nice textures! My suggestion is that the lights need a little adjustment. Catch you later mate!

[CgEye]

thanx fr the crits.

l_farley13_l , about the nouth area, there's more to come there so stay tuned :)

Satyricon , thanx, i'm too satisfied with light either. i'll get that fixed...

i'll probably show an update in a few days

[Gelfling]

Well Cg he is .... bursting with charcater :eek:

My first response was to run. He look's as if he is going to jump off the screen and devour me.

Way to go :thumbsup:
