A lil update on the boy. There needs to be much more emotion in his face, but i’m gonna work on that :stuck_out_tongue:


#43

a small update… still needs lot of work…


#44

Really amazing head modelling! Very impressive work! Your modellingskills are GREAT! And that textured bear is STUNNING! Just AWESOME work in this thread :wink:

Again allot goodluck wished,

Gijs

very nice story you got d-tox… just hard for me to read… maybe just my monitor. nice character, love to see the wire. keep going.


#46

thnx you both,

Anyway, just wanted to let you know i’m still working on this project. I will post an update somewhere tomorrow. I still have to make a lot of ships and building, and then wreck em all:twisted:
anyway updates will come soon, the sketch will come tomorrow(if i can find some time for it:P)


#47

Now on to the texturing part :stuck_out_tongue:


#48

JUst begining on the hair, and texture a little…


#49

The spec map is finished(moving on to the bump map now), the hair still needs some tweaking, and modelling…


#50

Does anybody know if it is legal to make your sketch in 3d?
Otherwise ill just draw it… But that looks a bit worse i think…:shrug:


#51

an update, hes got a bump map now :slight_smile:


#52

some more views of the boys head…


#53

Great model of the boy!

Are those tears just a map? How did you do them?

Keep updating! It’s very nice!


#54

WoW a comment :eek: hehe

thnx,
tears are a mesh, with a raytrace material on em, they still need a lot tweaking though, just like the hair :slight_smile:


#55

good model and texture mate. Something is wrong with the shadow, but im sure u will fix this. Lookin forward to see sketch - and yes i think it can be 3d or mixed 2d-3d.


#56

A really basic idea of what it’s gonna be… It can come out pretty different from this, but the base like this. A little boy standing on the battlefield after the battle crying. With in the background some spaceships in search of the last reamaining people(see story). And a destroyed city… How it is exactly gonna look in the end i dunno yet, i just have an idea of it…:slight_smile:


#57

It’s really fascinating idea and rather original I would say.
But as for me a subject could be more dramatic and capchuring if a boy appears (unexpectedly!!!) among falling ships and buildings, a witness of a huge battle which has begun suddenly…


#58

Yes something like that is cool too. As i said it could go any way, i almost never stick to my original concept. Just the idea of a boy at the battle field(before or after). But if the battle is still going on i think it’s just too hard to really focus the attention on the boy, since the image will become overcrowded… I think it will be more dramatic, to put him after the battle, with a couple of corpses on the ground, a couple of ships still in the air, a black sky, destroyed buildings and so on. With him being the symbol of hope for mankind… :slight_smile:

But as i said it can still go any way…
But first i will try to finish this boy, and make some ships… then i will begin really thinking about the scenery and environment…


#59

This is still a very wip, and ofcourse still need legs :P. He’s gonna have a pyjama on or something, at least there’s gonna be clother over most parts of his body, so i want model everthing in detail…
Tell me what u think of it so far…?
