Strange Behavior (Illustration) Entry: Dave Marsh

More detail on legs, shoes and leotard. Also added a gold chain and straps to the top.

oh man you gotta promise to show us a photo of your dad's face when he sees the finished piece

wow you're doing an excellent job. The idea is funny and the performance is...
don't know how i missed this one.
However i agree with a possibly mistake on the head size, she look a bit small for me too.

i'm waiting the follow-up

NR43,

Will do .

SweD,

She? I've mde the head a bit bigger on the last post. I don't want to go too far or he'll end up looking dwarf like.

CHeers guys.

My dad never goes far without a watch on so I decided he wouldn't remove his even for ballet practice :-) It gives me the opputunity to add some nice detail plus it adds to the overall strangenes of whats going on.

From this image you can see the level of detail I intend to achieve on this character.

Note the difference in texel density between the forearm and the back of the hand (the watch hides the seam for now). This is a bit of a cock-up on my behalf but I think I'll get away with it as the final image probably won't be quite this high res.

I'm well pleased with how the back of the hand is looking though.

The last thing to do to complete this part of the character is add some fine hairs to the forearm and back of the hand. I'm delaying this as my computer can't really handle it. It's a bit of a relic but I've just bought a new one and it arrives next week.

Can't wait :-)

This is the ugliest ballet danser i have ever seen!But the work is really good!Keep it up!

Beautiful watch, with a good rendering.

Keep going.

Awesome work: perfect modeling, texturing and rendering!

The concept is also a nice one!
Your illustration is going to be a really great one,
are you sure you don't want to participate in the shortfilm section? ;-)
Would be fun to see him dancing...

This is realy awesome work dude.

Love the level of detail.

hmm.strange idea already.Best of luck for the challenge

Rama6ka,
Glad to hear it :-) Cheers man.

fido972, thanks dude.

neablo,
Actually I am thinking about that, it would be great fun to animate him. From what I gather I need to enter anyway for the texturing and modelling categories. That right?

SONIC-X, thanks man.

CUBISIS,
That's the plan. :-) Cheers.

Thanks for getting that image stuck in my head. I might never sleep again.

But for real, great job. Top notch work. I am really impressed.

I'm speechless...

HypnoticGenes,
Hahaha, my pleasure

gpepper, . Is that you?

yep...it's me...
