im a chick and i cant do breasts? whats up with that?

[Neural Riptide]

Looks good to me...
If your subject line "I'm a chick and I can't do breasts?..." is an indication of what you think is wrong, I'd have to say you are doing a pretty good job so far. ;)
Note though that I've never done a character, so I'm not in much of a position to critique your work. :)

Post more shots as your work progresses though. I like the idea. :)

that model looks really interesting, some kind of mermaid?

Well, about the breasts, it is really hard to tell what is wrong from that perspective. Could you try to give us a few more renders and closeups. Just from this picture i would say that they have been "squesed" from the sides, dunno if that gave any meaning at all :P

Keep up the good work!

[Gremlin]

your name reminds of the evil chick madly in love with that imohtep guy in the mummy.... her name was Anuk suh na moon or something.

OH, and as far as the boobs go, umm... maybe dont make them so close together (just a smidge farther appart) and apply some gravity to those bad boys (they need to hang a bit!)
Cheers,
:beer:

heh what has the world come to when men instruct women what breasts look like? ;)

looking good so far.. try getting some references for those breasts tho.. shouldnt be so hard to find :p

[Six Black Roses]

I'm going to have to as well say that the breasts don't point out to the sides as they naturally would. Poly, you say? Hmm... I suppose there's an easy way to move the breasts out.

*** goes back to deciding whether his main modeling technique will involve NURBS or polygons ***

I'm being manipulated by the reviews of either bias... "No, polys are better--they're more like sculpting! No, you asshole, NURBS are better 'cause you have more accurate control! Polys are like MP3s... the quality is still there! No, you dumbass, NURBS are CD-like in quality and accuracy... wait, DVD-like!!!"

*** sigh ***

[dark_lotus]

The key is getting good reference, just use a mirror in your case, they're quite difficult to model, so don't despair.

Just keep going, the model is awesome, the only thing for the breasts i can suggest it to angle them out to the side a bit.

Overall thats coming along really nicely!

You just don't love breasts like we do. Mams rock!:buttrock:

[Anuxinamoon]

hey wow! i didnt think i would get such great feedback :) makes me feel welcomed *awww*
ohhh yeash now i see hehehe yeah breasts do point out a little. i will have to change that... ill post up a few more pics for ya'll ;)

thanks you guys have really helped me heaps

[Neural Riptide]

That tail is looking awesome too (no, not the butt tail, the tail tail :) ) Reminds me of those gold fish with the super big tail and fins.. please don't give her those big bulging baggy eyes though... it wouldn't look right. :D :D :D

[Anuxinamoon]

ummm i fixed her up a tad and she has underarms now.... well beta ones :p

[midnight]

very nice updates, I really like her fishy look :)

Her breasts are still a little "odd" i would say that they need a little more curve. they are pretty "edgy" I think they would look alot more natural if you made them more smooth. Ive made a little profile of the breast so you can see what I mean.

Keep up the good work :)

take a look at my last woman model (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=49383&perpage=15&pagenumber=3)

[Anuxinamoon]

lol hey thanks midnight, i shall try to not make em so edgy but i have no idea what i am doing in this program lol, im a 2d artist trying to go 3d... its hard. and i have only been doing it since febuary >_< i hope this model can cut it for my assesment... gawd i dun even know how to skin! *dies*
oh well :P
hey i have made crappy hands and a half decentface :) yay!

[leigh]

That's looking much better :)
Really interesting character, by the way. What is she? Some kind of mermaid?

I like the flippers coming from her torso, but they are a little blocky. Things that live in the sea should be full of flowing curves and soft shapes :)

Hmm her arms look rather long... but it may just be the angle you've rendered from.

Good to see another female around here :beer: There are quite a lot of us now :D

[Neural Riptide]

Sweet! That's looking really good. :)

I think she should have hair though.. or maybe a bunch of things coming off her scalp that give the appearance of hair. :)

[Anuxinamoon]

yeah go woman power! i know there also needs to be more girls that play games too :( i will make a all girls mohaa clan someday!
but thats besides the point :)
thanks for the comments Leigh, yeah she is some sort of mermaid... i love the ones with lots of fins and stuff... makes em look cool... tho i am tossing up between haveing some of those torso fins on her back as well to complete the scorpin fish look or not... cause they will get in the way... i dunno i might... or have a dual dorsal that comes into one single one... heheh oh yeah i only used a smothing of one on that... thats why they r so blocky. when it is finnished it will have a smothing of 2 *poins up* like the other renders i posted.... they r going to be fun to animate >_<

Neural Riptide thankies for the comment :) yeah shes gonna have hair... here i shall post a concept... lol shes looks nothing like that atm but i shall find a way to make her look like it i swear! *shakes fist*

[Viper]

Great concept! Looking really nice. I also agree with what Leigh said about the curves. It doesn't seem to be with a good flow right now...then again, it's not skinned yet, so I can't really tell :)

Good luck ;) Looking foward to the next update :)
