Character: Alien Head (2nd Wings Head...Sub-D style).

#1

I first head was trash…I wont even post it. So, I did some research and tuts and now…my second head is much better.
Here are a few image progressions. Crits and comments welcome. Still needs some work but here is what I have dome so far.

Thanks

Initial Idea.

The first session. About one hour of work. made from a cube sub-d style.

Another hour of mesh and feature tweaking.

Here is another stage. He is at 800 polys now.

#2

Here is another stage. Mouth/lip tweaks with the addition of eyes and ears. Some tweaks ti the cheekbones and brow. He is at 1,250 polys now. Still needs the addition modeling of the neck and armor.

Here is a download of an 12mb avi (3ivx@800X650) of a rotation and smooth. This guys is turning out a whole lot better then I had planned. Can’t wait to finish him and bring him into Z. :tu: :smiley:

If there is any problems with the DL, let me know…I need to make sure my new website is working well. Thanks.

Finally, a quick render in ZBrush.

hey Mahlikus, this second head of yours is looking very nice indeed… can hardly wait to see this all textured… way cool alien :slight_smile:

#4

Thanks. I am lookinbg to take him into Zbrush for additional details. Need to finish the neck and I REALLY need to fix the eyes abd lips…but at least I am headed somewhere.

#5

Thanks for the comments guys.
I redid the eyes, lips and ears…still need the neck before I go into ZBrush.

#6

Here is the new version. I can’t really add the detail I would like right now so I am going to texture it as is and hopefully do some detailing there. This model has better looping in the mouth and eyes. Might animate him if I can learn the rigging well and soon enough.
You can see the progression of this guy here.

What about moving the eyes just a little bit out of parallel ? Not the pupils, but the eye socks might be too much perfectly forward.

I love all the soft wrinkles that give it character.

#8

Thanks marky.

Here is another with a few tweaks. Here is an attempt to adjust the eyes but I am going to readjust the socket structure. Need to redo/remove the center skull structure and refine the ears and neck.

Cool work Mahlikus !! Keep going ! :slight_smile:
