That's very cool. :thumbsup: I like the hands and the shirt they both look exellent, the only thing is the head texture looks a little too yellow but once you've sorted that out it'll look great. :)

Very nice. I actually like the skin texture. All the modelling looks very good. Of course we all want to see a wireframe.:thumbsup:

Hello everybody.
Thanks for your nice comments. This is a little update here. The pants. Hope you like it. I will try to start the textures tommorow and start the shoes also.

I have so many things to do but so little time.

is it just me or can i make out a small seam going down the front of the shirt and the side of the pants. Looks like a unoptimized symetery object possiblly.

Your model of the clothes lacks some small details that would tie everything togther, it is still a WIP though LOL :). I just have to say that your succeding in giving him a great human property and a lot of personallity. Keep it up, you really have something here, and I mean that :).

Improved the legs area and also the @ss area. Now as you can see it's much smaller.

The textures are temporary. They're made with sla in about 5-6 minutes just to see if I'm going the right way

This guy and other stuff I'm gonna do is for my BA in graphic design.I'm a graphic designer and I chose for my subject 3d Illustration. The plot is that the main character dies and you watch the last moments of his life. Actually what he is thinking the last moments before he dies. I want it to be quite surrealistic .I need to make at least 20 illustrations.(I'm aiming for much more though) This will be my main character.
I'm thinking that the last moment a person dies the brain works really fast and from what I've read sometimes it gets confused and it projects stuff that are deep in your concioussness.It's like on dreams. You have some thoughts but then your brain interferes with them and it projects some other thoughts on top of them. That's why I'm aiming for a surrealistic look. Surrealists tried to visualise the dreams and the concioussness. I'm going to include all the stuff people think on their life. Like the relationships between people, are they real or not. do we listen to each other. I'm going to talk also about the realationships with the other sex, love, (is it real or not), death, is there life after this life, is there God etc.
I think that I'm in deep trouble here(!!!) I have to visualise stuff that aren't materialised they exist only on peoples minds (sorry if you can't understand what I'm saying but my english reach this far...). And on top of that I have to overcome technical problems.I have to do too much stuff and to be honest I don't know if I can manage to make 20 illustrations at top notch quality.... I don't care for my school's grade cause it will surely be good.. Even the specialized 3d section of my school has lower quality stuff than this.... What I want is to make really really good illustrations with extremely high quality and an extremely good book that contains the illustrations. I can make the really good quality book now all that remains is the good illustrations!!!! (he he) The main concern of mine is that I have very little time to make all this. If I had some more time than I think that I could get really good quality. May 26th we give our papers to our tutors and our school. That means that I have 2 1/2 months to make it all happen. I need one and a half week to make the layout of the book 5 working days to print and bind the book and about 2 weeks to make the renders. So I have only 1 and a half month to make the actual models and setup the scenes. The thing is that I don't have the experience to build the characters. This model took me about 2 weeks. The shirt and the pants took me 1 day and the face and hands took me the rest of the time. And they still need tweaking... I need at least one more main character and some other characters that will be in the background or not so viewable. Now that I have a figure I like, I think that I will use the main mesh to build the other faces. So I think that this will save me some time. But I need also to bone the characters so that I can make them posable. And I haven't done anything like that before. To add to all that I have to build the other objects also....So if I need 3 more weeks to bone and build the other characters that leaves me 3 weeks to build all the other objects and setup the scenes. I'm going to build my scenes in layers so I think that I can maybe save some time from rendering. But still have very little time.Well now that I think all of this I'm starting to panic!!!! This is gonna be one really really bad semester....

hey excellent concept....sounds like one hell of a big project..with one hell of a tight deadline....all i can say is youre going about it the right way so far...:buttrock:

Also your main character deserves the time spent on it...supplemental characters and objects etc can be less intensive (imho). Rigging etc i would imagine will eat up into your time if youve never done anything like that before. If its illustration work are you going to do cell shading stuff?...also you can really let you mind go crazy if its surrealist stuff...i presume you have planned each of your scenes by now...anyways good luck with it and make sure you keep us informed on the progress.:thumbsup:
