Hope u guys will like this char as much as i did makin him so far.
Comments are appreciated.

[gnarlycranium]

Awwwwwwww, isn't he cute?! :D With that little smirk and everything! He's great!

One crit-- his upper lip seems too hard-edged, especially when pursed, it ought to squish rounder when he presses his lips together.

[That Adrian Guy]

My god Raul...

Everything is so good...

Maybe add subtle wrinkles to the forehead to show his age more.

Wow...

Keep it up

[Aros]

Whoa, that looks great. I've got nothing to comment :D

I can't wait for some more updates :thumbsup:

[Raul-Reznek]

Wow! thx for the spontaneous reply guys, be sure i will update and improove this char.

later and thx.

Do u guys like the cap?

[gnarlycranium]

Yes, love the cap, especially the dangly bits. :thumbsup:

[Threedeemer]

Excellent! I really like characters like this. Nice face lines.

[Mcf]

he looks really cool :buttrock:

hope he soon gets a body :D cause i'm curious how he might look like complete :)

cheers mcf

[ComatoseWolf]

Nice work, I really like the cap i think it adds alot more character to him than your non capped version :applause:

[azazel]

Reminds me Severian from Gene Wolfe's novels:thumbsup: Will You model rest of him?

[Cryo_RO]

man this is crazy , he's soooo cool , the mask is nice as well

esti tare ma raule :)

[Grub]

Really cool, Raul.:buttrock: The mask/cap definately makes him fit the part of an executioner.:cool:

[Jhonus]

thats awesome.

i want to be yoru fanboy
:beer:

[leigh]

That's superb, Raul :applause:

Your ability to model organic shapes never fails to astound me - you are extremely gifted.
This character is looking beautiful so far - you transfered the concept to the model extremely well :thumsbup:

I'd love to see a better lit model though - rendering it out so dark does no justice to it ;)

[ceql]

hehe nice!! Very charismatic ;)

[John Lee]

Excellent can't wait to see some animation?

[S E D A H]

Really nice Paul.....overall is great caps and face l ove too the ring you have put on th hats that give him more a butcher look..............and just one thing bother me in front veiw your nosetrill loon really small.........give us a wireframe!

[APSAAUGA]

Cool character, i like the lips specialy, awsome

[Raul-Reznek]

Thank you for the support everyone.
Multumesc Cryo :D, si tu la fel.
Leigh, thx for th post, have't seen you in a while, wtf happened to your entry in the chal? you got like 400 or sommin, and it was brilliant!

Sedah - a lot of anomalies at this stage.Gotta work some more on it.
More updates tomorrow guys.

c ya and thx a lot.

[Max4d]

hey Raul

The cap looks great, very nice. You keep saying he is his brother?? Actually, withpout the cap i could see a father in him, because he has more wrinkles on his face. That would be a nice concept, father and son. But the father is more evil, wanting to drag the son in to his evil way's, could be a very nice story behind that i think.

Very nice work....... i send you e-mail check it please... and let's forget our previous collision, allright!!!!

[nibo]

[twinkletoes]

[Supervlieg]

Excellent model! Nice emotions too. I love the job you did on the nose.

[Raul-Reznek]

hye thx guys.
What up NIBo!!! :D thx for the post man.

Did an animation test 500 Kb 320X240, the last part is pretty crappy as one of the Key Frames flipped in max 5.

DIVX 4.0

[Max4ever]

[Max4ever]

you're a god damn genius...:buttrock:
your model has personality and this is the most important...besides the great modeling of course...:thumbsup:

[Snakeman]

too sweet not to reply!!:beer:

[Virtuoso]

Hey Raul-Reznek,how have you been? What you got here is mighty fine.Noble and badarse that's for sure. Beyond the tools it's great to see a speacial touch, a character with that added finesse. Well done.:thumbsup: :beer:

[Raul-Reznek]

hey buddy wasaaa?
didn't get your pm back, oh well :D

here is the progress i made 2day, i want to know if this is going the right direction...

http://www.etechfilms.com/Raul/poze/thiefling2.jpg

[Raul-Reznek]

.

I'm currently workink on the...ummm. dunno the English for the 3 little muscles i made below the pects... :D





and anotehr matter would be wether the scanline or brazil render is better.






http://www.etechfilms.com/Raul/poze/thiefling3.jpg

[Titan]

thats looking nice man....

how did you animate the face, morph targets?

[Hexodam]

marking my spot here so I can check it again later :D

looks fantastic

[azazel]

Heading in right direction me thinks :thumbsup:

[coCoKNIght]

Heya Raul, very nice model you've got here! Yeah, I like the cap a lot, keep it! And wheter to use brazil or scanline, I'd say use the faster of them :D At the moment it doesn't make much difference...
Man! Really astonishing modeling... oh yeah, and the poses, I also liked them very much! Just you keep it up, I'm watching! :D :thumbsup:

[KingMob]

i always forget to surf the wips (busy little bee that I am) and then I miss stuff like this...dude, once again showing your mastery, I love it!

Can't wait to watch these two guys fight...also like the 'gimp-gear' on page 1 ;)

top notch man... as usual

:beer:

[Virtuoso]

Hi Raul...........I sent you back a return PM,but something was wrong with my PM's for awhile.I was getting them,but for some reason I was unable to get them out,but it's been fixed now.:)

The name for those muscles are Serratus.......I don't know them in Romanian,so we are even. ;) .........By the way,I think you should tone them down or blend them a bit from what I see now. I would go with Brazil if I were you. Have you ever considered V-Ray,it's really smooth and extra fast.

Well keep going it's looking really fine thus far.I'll check up on you later.

:thumbsup: :beer:

[Hickory]

Nice, hows about a scar...can we get a wire? I really like the start of the ribs and would like to see how the geometry caters to them.

[kurdesen]

i barely post something here but thats something to be replied . forms and the look of it inspired me alot thanx well done :thumbsup: :applause:

[Raul-Reznek]

wow! look at all the replies GOODIE :D

I'm sorry i couldn't suply a update for 2day, i just wasn't any good at modeling i guess :D.

Titan - yea morphs
King mob you dirty bastard :D i knew you what are you doing here! :D thx for the reply
Virtuoso - i don't really like V-ray it's..uncomfortable and thx for the muscle's name :D
Hickory - no scars, i'm not into that kinda stuff, it's a cliche
Kurdeden - aaah..don't want to seem rude ,but should i feel honored? nothing rude

[BiTMAP]

welp, thats a nice model :drool:

[kurdesen]

if its a question to be answered no you shouldnt but if you feel to ... :hmm: :surprised

[Russ]

I like your style :thumbsup:

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Hickory]

I am already looking forward to an axe if you give him one.

[Raul-Reznek]

Hey guys!

here is the progress, had a hard time puttin the torso together it's a pain in the ars with splines anyhow

Russ - i always wanted to see ya work but your site is always under construction
Kurdesen - gimme some links to your work pls :D
hick. - i don't think i'm going for the axe, ratehr teh styletto, depends on what the musculature turns up to be.

http://www.etechfilms.com/Raul/poze/thiefling4.jpg

[Raul-Reznek]

oh! forgot to ask, do u see a diference beatween One and Two and if so which is best.
i'm refering to the torso area.

Late and thx! :D

[coCoKNIght]

can't make out a difference except that thing hanging down from his neck... :curious: So what is it? What are you up to?

[Raul-Reznek]

the torso in ONE is wider than is in TWO, i was waondering which was better :D

[nadeemmar]

heay raul .............you always show us very good work...
for the torso .... i think the one on the right is better .... it looks more natural than the one on the left:rolleyes:
:bounce:

[coCoKNIght]

Hmm... I was thinking it was the width, but then I thought it's because the one on the right is smaller...
Well, I'd go for the first one, looks more realistic to me now, but who knows when you add arms and stuff, hard to tell which one is better at this stage... wouldn't it be easy to tweak later anyway?

[Raul-Reznek]

I think it looks better now.. :D



http://www.etechfilms.com/Raul/poze/thiefling4_new.jpg

[JonasNoell]

:thumbsup: Very cool, but give the eyes some outwork or give him some real ones, which I would even like better ;)
Why is every pic destroyed with this crappy noise?

cANt

[Raul-Reznek]

I'll do some real eyes in a bit.
I like the grainy look :)
Do you guys think i should take it out?

[Hexodam]

thats amazing!:buttrock:

could we get a wire?

[JonasNoell]

Yes take it out :beer: (I suppose my opinion is not toooo neutral)

And just one more thought. The muscles are really cool looking, but I think that on his chest over the nipples isn't this supposed to be one more or less flat muscle and not like you did some kind of ribbed one?

Just note my english sucks :shrug:

cANt

[Zeio]

Awesome character, superb modeling. I particularly love the face mask. I also think the grainy look works well, however I would check "Monochromatic", since the color noise doesn't look as good IMO. Looking forward to more updates!

-Zeio

[Hickory]

I was wondering what you use as an anatomy reference. The muscle definition on this guy is great.

[JulianJohnson]

well done its looking very good, very nice modeling and character design, good luck with it

[tomb]

That's looking really cool, great design and modeling. The muscle definition on his chest is great. Scarrrry.

[do0d]

amazing!!!! have a request tho... can u make a tut on how you animate those faces?? :D

[Raul-Reznek]

wow! a lot of replies :D

I'll see bout the grain
@hick - i am not useing ref, it's out of my knowledge now :D
@dood - prolly, if more people want to... i am not too good at animations anyhow.Modellling is my strong ... (EDIT) i THINK :D

later guys

[yomope]

Modellling is my strong

really??? :p
exelent work and your not so bad at animation...

[sizzlebits]

That character rules. As someone said earlier in the thread, he has alot of personality. In response to the noise comment... I like the noise, personally. Great work. Very inspiring. :buttrock:

FYI: I would be very interested in seeing you write a tutorial. I am also interested in seeing a control cage wireframe, if you wouldn't mind. :airguitar

[buzzlightyr]

loved your model,loved face clips and keep the grain in man, its different which is norm a good thing :surprised

[Raul-Reznek]

ok and here is an OLD sketch i did, this is how I INTENDED to make teh char.








http://members.lycos.co.uk/wizarts/warrior.jpg

[Maximus Groff]

Hey, wheres the main character ?

These hands are absolutely perfect ... no crits!

Are u using subd ? must be insane poly counts.. :eek:

[TES]

perfect modeling man!

[Raul-Reznek]

back with the torso(front side) completed
i'm having trouble deciding if i should leav the dorsal muscle big or make it smaller

http://members.lycos.co.uk/reznek/vampire_2.jpg
http://members.lycos.co.uk/reznek/vampire_3.jpg

[Raul-Reznek]

and a fast test i did, i wanted to suggest the pulling of something heavy





http://members.lycos.co.uk/reznek/vampire_5.jpg

[nadeemmar]

it is coming along nicely

but i think his head is a little bit big....

keep the good work:thumbsup:

[That Adrian Guy]

agreed, the head looks somewhat large. Can you show us other angles on the "display of power" pose?

This is looking really good, Raul! Keep it up!

[That Adrian Guy]

agreed, the head looks somewhat large. Can you show us other angles on the "display of power" pose?

This is looking really good, Raul! Keep it up!

[KingMob]

raul, your a master man!

yeah the only thing slighlty off is the head might be a bit on the big side, but maybe thats how he is...I know some people with rather large heads, why not a non human :beer:

Looking great tho, really nice lighting and feeling on the skin, goo job man!

have you posted any wires yet?

[Corn Dog]

Looks like hes working out.

[Raul-Reznek]

back on this


http://members.lycos.co.uk/reznek/vampire_new1.jpg


it was SUCH a PAAAIN in the ass makin the legs.


c ya and thx for future replies.

[Raul-Reznek]

and another one





http://members.lycos.co.uk/reznek/vampire_new.jpg

[sMileGraPhix]

wow :buttrock:

that's looking great!! :applause:
amazing work until now!


bye

[Pickman]

You and Michel Roger are my favourite eyecandies !! Keep up modeling realistic flesh and muscles. Can't wait to see more.
Will you put up a rigging demo for us, just to look at how this dark creature moves ???
ps: arms and torso seem a bit small compared to legs....IMO

[KingMob]

man, very inspirational...

can't wait to see your textures on him again now that he is so complete.

Can we see a back side or the level 0 cage by any chance?

great work as always man :beer:

[coCoKNIght]

It was worth the pain in the ass, excellent job on those legs! :thumbsup:

maybe we could see another angle?

[S E D A H]

Really nice work Raul modeling is awesom only few thing bother me the ankle seem to low for me and the shoulders is kinda look weird when they are bend maybe its just a waiting problem anyway Great work man .................

[Virtuoso]

Hi Raul......:wavey:

At it again are we my friend.

Looking excellent If I do say so myself. You are on targe,just came in to add my support of a very fine piece of work,I will leave the rest to you,this creation is in fine hands with you.:thumbsup:

To me he looks kind of in between a human,and a non-human type caricature, leaning towards humans a bit more. Due to this I think what porportions you give him are totally up to your vision.( Great thing to create with this freedom,huh?)He can be whatever you want him to be.

Just keep going,you already have a real excellent piece of work here.:beer:

[Max4ever]

:buttrock:
you rull man! this is gonna be a great character! :thumbsup:

[Max4d]

Yeah, i must agree with the others, it looks very nice. But don't make him to perfect, a little fat doesn't hurt anyone :D:D

Keep it up, you know your anatomy well
