Gladiator, Jonas Thornqvist (3D)
Jeeeeeesus!! This is one of my most fave pieces ever! Just flawless in my opinion. If i had any crits i wouldn’t put them, it works perfectly as it is.
CANNOT WAIT to see the animated work on this fella!
Amazing work!!! The design and texturing is amazing. One small thingie…he dont look like a gladiator…looks a wee bit feminine (maybe its the smooth temples)…I’d expect a bit more bulky gladiator, could be more hurt in his expression…but anyway it is a wonderful creation!![]()
Texture nice, the feeling of the skin so close, means that very real…lighting very nice.
awesome…good luck for you…
Let me ask you something: Did you actually met this being or what?!?
Because to me in order to get his skin texture…you have to specifically ask his permission to take samples of his beautiful skin.
Or…did you get your own reptile samples and come with it on your own. Do you know texture mixing and creation that much? Where and how did you start out like this? Which tutorial? Where? Who? How? Why?:applause:
I’m very baffled. Congrats for making me like that.:applause:

Very nice image. You did a superb job. It is interesting, he could look mean and scary, however, his expression is very quiet, maybe even somewhat . . . Sad? You did amazing woirk on the body texture and lighting.
