Hey everyone,

Managed to find a bit more time to work on my Malcolm Reynolds character, got the UVW and texturing roughed up. I got an old thread somewhere for the modelling, but that seemed long enough ago to start this new one.

Anyways, I seem to be up to the bit where you've done everything you're supposed to to make it look like him, but it still doesn't and now it's time to figure out why and how to fix it. I think the first thing to do is to add wrinkles and stuff, the skin here is just a base texture.

C&C of any flavour welcome...

(P.S. it's a 1500 poly base which I prefer to use 1 level of meshsmooth on upping to about 6k)

Hey everyone,

Did some more tonight, added clothes, tweaked the face. Turns out the low poly base looks better if I replace the turbosmooth for a relax modifier, so that's cool cos it puts the poly count back down around 2K (including the clothes).

Hey everyone,

I've fixed up malcolms face a bit, figured out how to bake radiosity into vertex colors and imported him into the game engine I'm using (Multiverse), below are the results. I think it's finally starting to look a little bit like him, might only be once I do some facial animation that it really starts to ring the face bell...
