Hardcore Modeling Challenge: Vitruvian Man: Vote!

#46

As newwee here, iā€™m sure iā€™m not the most qualified to vote, even, not qualified at all, but here are my vote:

Best Modelling: Steven Stahlberg
Best Detail Model: Steven Stahlberg
Best Shading: Anish Mohan
Best Rendering: Anish Mohan
Most realistic Model: Steven Stahlberg
Best Overall Entry: Anish Mohan

Reasons: I think S.St.'s model is better than the others, sadly he didnā€™t or coudnā€™t make a suitable render. In the other hand, i like the final image of Anish, the light, the sadows getting a closer image to the Leonardoā€™s draw.

This is my modest opinion, donā€™t know to be taken into account. Sorry my English.

Well Iā€™m going with Stahlbergā€™s entryā€¦it just has better proportion and detail than the others. But I must say I thought the David entries as a whole were higher quality. Most likely due to the amount of reference material.

[color=white]Best Modeling: [/color]Steven Stahlberg (best proportions)
Best Detail Model: [color=darkorange]Steven Stahlberg (great detail on face, arms)
Best Shading: Steven Stahlberg (yep)
Best Rendering: Steven Stahlberg (ditto)
Most Realistic Model: Steven Stahlberg (Are you reading these?)
Best Overall Entry: Steven Stahlberg [font=Verdana][size=2](but weā€™ll get you next time Stahlberg!)[/font][/size][/color]

John Conelea 2nd best, lower part of the body not as accurate and proportionate as head and torso, IMHO.

Good attempts from everyone :applause:

Best Shading, Best Rendering: Best Shading

Artist: John Conelea!!!

WIP Thread: HARDCORE MODELING!: VitruvianMan: <<Full Body and Shading >> xyzjpc

Comments: I modeled this piece in a about a 25-30 hours. I modeled the base mesh in Softimage Xsi 5, and then brought it into Zbrush for high poly detailing. After creating a displacement map, I brought everything into Modo, and rendered it with GI and Micro poly displacement. I really enjoyed doing this Hardcore modeling challenge, and learned alot.

Final Entry:

And the Winnerā€¦

Best Modeling, Best Detail Model, Most Realistic Model, Best Overall Entry, Best Modeling , Best Shading, Best Overall Entry

Artist: Steven Stahlberg (Stahlberg )

WIP Thread: HARDCORE MODELING: VitruvianMan: Full Body & Shading - Stahlberg

Comments:
In this scene I used a fairly light environment color, almost white, other than that itā€™s the default settings you get when you click ā€œFinalgatherpreviewā€ in the quality presets.
Then, one single spotlight, in the traditional position up high off to one side. Iā€™d say about 5 meters high, a meter or two to the side. (Usually nicest effect to shift the light off toward the side opposite of the camera, for this kind of ā€˜portraitā€™ photo.)
Switch on raytraced shadows, lower the intensity to 0.5, and - optional - switch on Mental Ray area light (for this I used default quality settings, but made sure not to make it a very huge area light, just about the size of the guys head). Very quick setup.

#59

A big thanks to Roberto for offering up his free time like thisā€¦ respect to the other artists. and thanks to those who voted for me! :smiley: I apologize I couldnā€™t find the extra time to put as much effort in as people did in the David thread.

This is a really cool award, especially for me, as I love to model probably more than anything else in 3d.

#60

Ha ha ha ha . . . Steven won. Thatā€™s a surprise.

Mastery work Steven. I really like the muscle definition in the legs. I think the legs are really nice. I also like the hair-hairshadows-face contrast.
Make more men!

I think the others did a job well done as well.
