thanks Hitmon for the hard crithique tht’s exactly what I need here! I toned down the red on the arm a bit and killed the yellow completely… about the skin i am looking into cool skin patterns toad and fishes expecially!
I am gonna use wht i have here as base and grow it from there… retty much ctrl+E on the texture and start layering again
Abrvpt good point on the armor… i am gonna test coloring with a warm tone indeed and adding maybe some sort of cold veining in it and tht whole arm is gonna have blood splatters… BTW I got the idea for the base… be ready for a blood bath :slight_smile:

cheers

the only crit I have is the yellow, but you already said that the yellow is gone. I think the reptile like skin colors will look really good on him. Good luck on getting this dude finished!

hey there bro! I’ve been wanting to comment since your last update, but things are just crazy around here, my little girl got sick, and just a lot of work. Anyhow I think all the comments already say what I was thinking. I don’t know anything about the whole poly thing, or the pixel budget, but I imagine it has something to do with the fact that you’ve lost a lot of the detail and texture of you model. Thats what really got me hooked to your work, it didn’t look 3d, there was a lot of warmth (not such a plastic, shiny feel) and wonderful texture. If you could still capture that some how it would be great. I also think the dark
brown doesn’t let you appreciate all the little bumps and ruff skin (incredible work BTW). Maybe that would work itself out with a good lighting job.
If you have to stay up all night do it your dude is worth it, you’ve done a commendable job so far, push, push and dont forget, good is the worst enemy of the best :beer:

Hey, you done!
Nice jooooob!:thumbsup:
Your blood on pedestal looks like so good! How did you get that?
Congratulations!:beer:

#121

thanks!

well the blood was simple

  1. sea foam texture
  2. color correct to red
  3. desat and invert the foam for the spec and a lighter version for the alpha
  4. crazy bump for the normals

hit render :slight_smile:

is good to use nature when we can…
then i inflated a bit the center to get the blood bubbling up from the depths

#122

Looks awesome! You really improved the texture.

Edit: What was the alpha used for?

#127

Great Work! 5 stars :smiley:

#128

I really dig the presentation shot with the blood and stuff. Looks very good man!

Congratulations it’s an amazing character :slight_smile:

#129

Excellent job man, good luck with the judging. :wink:

#130

Thanks all
@Hitmon: the alpha is used for the teeth and the blood drops only… I wanted to use it on the spine of the ribcage on the weapon too but it didnt made it

#131

Great job, Stefano! I was afraid the details get lost in the presentationshot, but you did very well!
Wish you all the best!

#132

thanks Yako! lots of pain there but textures now do what they should: give fake extra detail, not ruining the detail work I think.

#133

Hey Stefano,

Great work and concept, like a lot the great details on it. He looks really badass :smiley: Congrats on your finish and good luck! Cheers!! :beer:
