Grand Space Opera 3D Entry: Jason Maguire

#21

Hi guys, thanks for your comments. :slight_smile:

I completely agree with your critique, Iā€™ll fix up the shoulders and give him a more curved back before I start texturing the robe. :slight_smile:

#22

Hi guys!

After another short break (was distracted by ā€œUru: Ages Beyond Mystā€ this time!) Iā€™m back to work again.

Iā€™ve made some adjustments to the facial structure of the Elder and made a start on his texturing. :slight_smile:

#23

Great work so far! I like every part of it. Maybe only make those guys more stooped or bended downā€¦ it would look more realistic

good job! Iā€™m waiting for more

#24

Very nice updates and that guy look very realistic
no crits for now keep up the good work:thumbsup:

#25

wowā€¦ this is greatā€¦

texturing and modelling is awesomeā€¦ I like the table and lamp designsā€¦

#26

Thanks guys, Iā€™m glad you like it!

I should be making a start on texturing the robe soon. :slight_smile:

#27

Looking very nice Jasonā€¦Your doing an overall very good job here.I like the whole threadā€¦In your latest update I could only suggest (A taste thing) so dont mind it too too muchā€¦You can perhaps give him a little more red and brown to the skin palletteā€¦And lower the wrinkles or folds in his forehead a touchā€¦Either way you have some real nice work here,keep this up,Iā€™ll watch for moreā€¦:thumbsup:

#28

Made a start on texturing the robe, still needs some work I think. Maybe itā€™s too dark? what do you guys think?

#29

Virtuoso: Thanks for your comment! I fixed up the wrinkles on his head a little. Iā€™ll add some more colour to the texture aswell, thanks! :slight_smile:

#30

More texturing tests. :slight_smile:

#31

Texturing looks nice, but I think your way of lighting is waht really makes you special. Havenā€™t really seen a lighting setup like yours, especially for the character. Nice stuff!

Cheers
:buttrock:

#32

Excellent progress i really like his textures very nice lighting

you did a great job here keep it up mate:thumbsup:

#33

Made a start on texturing the scene, still needs some work. Small lighting test aswell, I think it may be a little too dark, what do you guys think? :slight_smile:

#34

Many thanks for your comments keetmun & Lelantos. :slight_smile:

#35

Yes! It starts to look very impressive! I see that you changed their poses a little bit and now they look very natural! What renderer did you use? I think that the lams on the sides are too bright and they catch viewerā€™s eyes too much.

#36

Looking good!

You may want to throw a bit of rim light on the two figures on the left and right from the wall sconces. Itā€™s hard to guage the darkness of the piece without the BG elementā€¦ so far it looks great!

nice work!

#37

I made a start on the exterior, I decided to go with a stormy setting so I may have to relight the main scene.

I wanted to make a large Metropolis on the outside but the building these guys are in is supposed to be the tallest in the city. I was thinking of maybe just showing the tops of a few buildings poking out of the water to make it look more like itā€™s sinking, what do you guys think? :slight_smile:

#38

arturro: Thanks! I agree about the lamps, Iā€™ll tweak them. Iā€™m using the Maya software renderer. :slight_smile:

cgkrusty: Thanks, Iā€™m glad you like it! I agree they might fade out a little, Iā€™ll try putting some rim lights on them, thanks. :slight_smile:

#39

More work on the exterior. :slight_smile:

#40

Hereā€™s a small composition test with the two scenes together. How does it look?
