O_o

what else can i say? awesome planning and awesome execution. i just might cry if you don’t finish this. :wink:

I wonder how the lowpoly will look with all this detail on the normal map.

I hope it goes well and all. This model so far looks sweet as hell I am just wondering about how this will transfer into low poly.

#75

Holy crap, youve been busy!
Makes me ashamed to have not started mine yet!

Nice work so far - good to see someone proficient at 2d and 3d

Beautiful work Andrewley! This is looking amazing. Are you going to rough him up a bit, or is this Richard departing on his first crusade, or wearing his polished dress armour for parleys, court-marshalls, functions and such? Will you be baking the reflections into the textures?

Keep it coming man.

Cheers

This is going to be one-person competition… lol… I’m going back to my playground lol

this thread is a slap in the face. i’m loving this so far. i like his overall frame, he looks like a powerful fella. out of Pure interest, how many polys is this high poly version? i think it would be really awsome if you kept the high poly version and made him a star in his own fully no poly limit glory with an awsome render of a battlefeild and slain enemys and Ricky boy standing sword held high with a Proud and Glorious battlecry yelling forth…wow.

dare i even critisise this peace? i like the sword, but i dunno, the hilt (is that right), the 2 metal bits sticking out horisontaly on sword, kinda look a little bit fragile. i dunno if i can see those bits defending ricks hands from a powerful sword swipe. maybe a little chunkier perhaps? if you disagree with me then thats cool, cos all this is sweet. :smiley:

#80

The sword need more love, it looks like a candle stand right now. Shield looks wierd too, especially the 4 “circles” at the top area.

Everything else (except the lion teeth, which you said to change anyway) is coated with a thick layer of goodness. Keep it up.

Andrewley - MAN! This is totally AWESOME! I need to pick my jaw up off the floor.

You are DA’ MAN!! :thumbsup: :scream: :bounce: :buttrock: :applause: :bowdown: :beer: :arteest:

#85

i’m speechless… great work, the amount of details is amazing :applause:
and i have to agree with Por@szek : it would be nice to see him in scene

#86

Wow I’m speechless… I love the lion paw gauntlets. Excellent touch! Wowa… now I have no will to continue with my char!! waaahh!! :cry:

#87

That is so very very excellent. Your metal material looks amazing I look foward to seeing how that translates to game texture.

#88

I really do enjoy this concept.

#89

Just found this thread today it s amazing! I d spend ages trying to acheive that type of work. well done Andrew. How do you fit it in with uni ? Have you or do you work in the animation or games industry! You ll have to finish this piece eventually! Other wise i ll need a new carpet cause my mouths watering! keep up the a1 work:buttrock:

#90

#91

Wow…this is very impressive. If you’re able to normal map this to a great looking game character…I will be speechless.

edit: I’m retarded.

Would be fun to see an update on this. :drool:

Is it only I who actually think far enough and by judging on his avatar his ‘a disciple of Maya’. Why ask when the answer is there? He’s using Maya. :curious:
