Hello, this is my first post here but Ive been browsing around for a week or so now. This is a really nice community by the way.

I was wondering what you all thought of this guy. He isn't completely finished yet, but he is close.

I need to redo the pockets on his pants and texture his pants and I am going to take the ugly looking shoes and make him barefooted or with sandles.

Ive been doin low poly stuff mostly but I wanted to try and make a cinamatic quality character, so I started this guy. I don't think its good enough, but I want to see what you all think.

It's definitely not crap. It's a really good start. Just needs more detailing - some ears maybe, more details on the pants, etc..
Keep going and update.

Thanks for the reply, I worked on him a little, and I want to get a host so I can just put the pictures in the thread instead of people having to download them.

If these show up, I fixed the pants, but still havn't textured them or added anymore detail besides the belt loop. I also added two belts, one is keeping his pants up and the other is going to be holding a chinese style broad sword.....I really hate those feet.

I also thought about the ears thing, I kind of didn't want him to have ears, but his head looks kind of dull without them, so Im thinking about either adding a hat(like the one shown, but with more detail and a string to hold it on his head)....or make some big ears for him, but I really suck at ears.(I guess I should do ears just for practice eh?) What do you think hat or ears? or both?

I was kind of bored and even though nobody seems very interested in my little guy, I thought it would be cool to post up a story and background for the little dude.

He is what Im calling a grass runner right now. He is immortal and a really really fast runner. He is unable to reproduce and is basically a one of a kind species. He can go months with out eating and only eats herbs. He is around 2-3 feet tall. He is fascinated with human made treasures and has pretty much became a treasure hunter.

My ultimate goal for him is to create an animated short film where he meets up with a human treasure hunter girl, who Im designing now but havn't started 3d yet. This girl is a machine expert and is searching for ancient technology that has been lost over the years. They come across a cave behind a water fall and they find a kind of war machine/golem that is dormant. And thats about all I have right now.

Im kind of debating now wether to make it a kind of mecha suit, not real powerful but kind of gundam like.....or...just an ancient war golem, a big wrecking machine that follows the orders of its 'master' who would end up being the grass runner or the girl who ever I decide has activate it, by accident of course.


Well...........Don't know how many people will actually read that, but it'd be cool if youd leave comments. Even bad ones if ya want. That's a supid idea or your grass runner is stupid, these comments would actually help me and make you feel like a big man(or woman) at the same time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbsup:
