Hanzo> Thanks a lot for your comment. I am really glad you liked my stuff. as for the tutorials on nurb modeling. I usually check out ether GnomonOnline.com or total3d.com . both of the placese have really good tutorial on the subject. I will send you couple mroe links that I found on line shortly 
Turned out well,it’s low poly,not my true love,I like lots of polys to spank around personally,after all those years of having to count them,it’s sooo fun to spank them when you get a chance.
I think you gave this a real good showing.Well done.:thumbsup: :beer:Virtuoso> same here. I love hi-rez stuff. glad you like my character. thanks for the comment
okay… at last. I didn’t have time to pose him ( really wished I had the time to. it would be so much cooler). here is my final image for the challenge. please enjoy.

trully awesome, if Im not wrong you used Maya for this… inst it!?
great character, design, textures and modeling, really nice model…
Oh boy, such wonderful work, but, not posing him might seriously cripple your chances. Nevertheless, you got my 5 points dude:thumbsup: I really like this kid, and the patterns and white/grey placement is really well put.
Hope to see you in the next challenge:beer:
This is a great model. Great texture work also. Are you going to work with it other that this? Maybe add a pose and scene or even animation? That would be delightful! Anyway, Good luck!
Thanks a lot for the comments, guys. Sorry I couldn’t reply any earlier. I had to go away for the weekends 
tobe> I think the final P.count is somewhere around 5000. I was mistaked with the P. count in Quads (instead of Tris) showing on the head display in maya. oops, I should have inculded the poly counts on the final submit.
bugo> yes, the project was done in maya 4.5
Apt Pupil > I would have posed him if I had the time… I just don’t have enough time for everything sometimes. but hey, guess what, I am rigging him right now. I won’t stop unitl he is competely done. 
btw, nice design on your character. I like it the details a lot!
Chris88> yes! I definitely will keep working on him. There are still a lot more need to be done with. like you said, some animation would be very nice. thanks!
alright… i just finished rigging and skinning Ciel 
i should be able to post up few poses and maybe a little animation if I have more time!
Hey there [NOV], when you have something to show, at this point you should probably show it in the finished gallery section. Just be sure it’s finished heheh
Otherwise, I would really like to see him finished.
Until then:wavey:
Chris88> it’s coming… I have a test animation on Ciel right now. but I dont understand why Maya crashes everytime I am trying to render with 3d motion blur. still trying to figure out the problem.
AP> oops, I guess you are right. I should open a new thread in that section thanks for reminding me, AP!
