Game Art Comp 8: Shocker - Spiderman

#9

looks great, you got it down to 2368 triangles? or polygons? Im confused

#10

Sorry:). I always say polygons when I mean triangles. Even tho I design in polygons, or quads, or faces, whatever the hell you wanna call them. Bad habit from hanging around Polycount. Kinda like how people say skinning when they mean texturing, but it also means the skin modifier in 3dsmax.

2368 Triangles.

np heh, I was tired when I posted that, I just wanted to make sure lol

#12

I am so glad you lost the short shorts. I just canā€™t be afraid of a guy in those.

#13

I know. A male supervillain terrorizing a city in short shorts is shocking enough. Damn the 70ā€™s! I think Marvel have gone with this style lately, and Iā€™d rather use it as well. Itā€™s suppose to be an armored suit, not a fashion statement.:scream:

#14

Nice geometry - really neat and all the polys are where they should be and the muscle definition is good - its a shame really, cos the design youre working from is pretty crap - he should be called matress man!
As you can tell, im not a big fan of american comics :smiley: - ill cut the fella some slack though - it was the 70ā€™s after allā€¦

#15

Do you have a smoothshaded picture to show?
It would be interesting to see.

#16

Sure.

Iā€™m busy trying to get the texture finished before Sunday. The deadline is coming fast. Iā€™m not a great texture artist, so Iā€™m trying to get the UVmapping done ASAP. Mapping in Wings3D isnā€™t fully developedā€¦but can accomplish what I need quicker than any other program Iā€™ve tried.

#17

I dunno, Iā€™d be kinda freaked out if attacked by a guy wearing hot pants. Makes you figure heā€™s got a moustache under that mask, and a construction worker friend. Not the type Iā€™d want jumping me in a dark alleyā€¦

Great model, BTW!! Looking forward to seeing how you ā€œskinā€ this one! :wink:

#18

Lol! - heā€™s still got yellow matress padding / boiler insulation for skin though! :smiley:
I wish you luck on making him look evil

#19

ElysiumGX very clean modeling dude this is the sign of a true game modeler, A thought --> yeah I miss this guy from the older comic books and sega games, :slight_smile: ah he is a villin!?.. but I wish you luck on making him wicked :twisted: Iā€™ll keep posted.

#20

This is great man, AWESOME! I hope you the texture does this justice.

#21

Just a little update on the texturing. I donā€™t claim to be a texture artistā€¦at all. :stuck_out_tongue:

I feel kinda stupid. I accidently mapped the area for the eyes upside down. :banghead: So Iā€™ll have to fix that before I give him eyes. IF I give him eyes. He looks creepy just like that.

#22

Looks badass. Nice.

#23

looking good man! I really like this model and the text is comin along great!

#24

ElysiumGX dude really, that anā€™t half bad. :thumbsup: all I think is that the contrast needs to be a little higher and the texture looks a little to blurred, sharpen it up dudeā€¦

in any case excellent work man keep hitting out hard, not much time left :curious:ā€¦

#25

Thanks for the comments. I need all the motivation I can find to get this finished on time. I donā€™t think Iā€™ve textured anything in almost a year.

A little touch up, maybe some eyes, and a poseā€¦then that should wrap it up.
Iā€™m gonna fix the UVā€™s for the eyes, and call it a night. 8 hours of texturing will mess you up. I need practice.

#26

Okie Dokie. The time is now 11:45pm July 4th. Iā€™m now calling it finished. Waiting for that submission thread to pop up.

It may be worth mentioning, this was all painted by hand (no texture overlays) with a mouse. Too poor to afford a tablet here. I know many are discouraged that they have to texture with a mouseā€¦so here ya go. Tools donā€™t make the artist. I good effort can still be made.

#27

Superb work, man!
