cool progress man :slight_smile:
just keep working on him.

#27

Nice work.

A question though. Is this the same Zycho from the old Blender forums? If so, good to see you around. If not, then just ignore me. :stuck_out_tongue:

Good to see ya back on the track! The mad scientist could also use a coffeemachine interface, and c calculator on his forearm, as well as an extra tipfinger for it. In one hand, i see him having a “pincette” for placing microparts grown from his hand and on one eye a macroobjective, to save the time to move to his microscope. And for all cases, a massive braincoolingsystem, when his brain enters a critic heat status, to calm down on command. Make dexter look like a preschool kid.
There only can be the one. THE SCIENTIST.
Lol, rock on mate!:wip: :buttrock:

Hi everyone!!

BgDM -> I’m not familiar with the Blender-forum (I can’t remember it anyways); but i tend to make sign-ups to ask one question in a forum or make one comment in a forum, and then forget all about the site. So it might be me :shrug: :stuck_out_tongue:

the1st_angel -> Thank you very much for the great ideas!! I’ll see what i can do… I haven’t started on the body yet, and i usually improve the sketch with new ideas when i model (make some add-ons as i go along)…

(Uploading updates in a minute…)

Again, thank you all for the great replys!!!

I wanted to try out something new, so I put in a small window so you can look intside his head, and see if “everything is allright” :stuck_out_tongue: …

I liked the heat-cooling idea the1st_angel came up with, so I might use some of alle the free space on the back of his head to put in a fan-cooler :smiley: …

Tell me what u think!!

THX

#31

Yeah Zycho… ya models lookin excellent man. love the cartoon style… and the glass porthole to view his brain is perfect…
it suits the model … rock on buddy

#32

Hehe, lovin this thread. The brainwindow is a great detail, and I’m lookin forward to some more eyecandy. Keep on rockin!:cool: :buttrock: :beer:

#33

WOW!! Thanks for the replys!!

I can’t tell you how much it means to me to get such good feedback from kick-butt 3D artists like you people!!! I’m gonna work this model all night :D!!

#34

haha lol
awesome idea about the window into the brain…the frame of the window seems a bit funny…is that your intented style or you just left it like that until u got bak to it?
anyways straighten out the frame…it kinda bugs me :slight_smile: other wise cool idea about the window.

may I suggest…instead of putting in a fan…put in water cooling. Like we got in computers today (ok well not very many computers have water cooling). Have a water storage container somewhere and have pipes going all his brain with ice cold water + mixed with some chemical to not give off droplets (i forgot the name of that process called…never pay attention in science). :slight_smile:

#35

Hey Zycho… you hold up against the best mate…its all about the art man. its your expression… let it flow…

haha you where one of my first critz on cg talk man …
and that model still hasn’t been textured yet Hehehehe…

take it easy man…

#36

Hi again

Rhezz -> About the windowframe, this isn’t how I thought it would turn out, but when I got to the point where it is now, I kinda liked it, so I didn’t fiddle around with… I think it fits in with the toon-style quite nicely… But who knows, I might redo some of it…
About the cooling system, I haven’t yet decided as to what I’m gonna do… The fan-cooler has a more comic apperence to it, but the water-cooling system is more high-tech (as you’ve noticed :)) So I’ll give it some thought, and maybe do one of each kind, and see what looks best…

ParadiseFlyBird -> Thank you for the encouraging words m8!! It means a lot to me!!

#37

Chemical cooling system…

#38

The containers pump heat-absorbing chemicals (like cooling-fluids in a fridge) in pipes around in his head…

#39

A quick picture of the pipes in his head…

What do u think?? Should I do a fan-cooler instead??

#40

I like the chemical cooling idea, as long as you’ll be able to see it through the window :slight_smile:

#41

Eugene Benade -> U think I should place it on the other side of the head to be more visible from the window??

#42

Ummm, I don’t know. I can’t really tell where it is at the moment from the pictures you posted so far.

#43

put it at the mid-left of his head so we could see it through the window :slight_smile:

great stuff by the way!

#44

maybe u could put some sort of door knob for the window so that he can refill his chemical. this kind of brain really need supercooling system.

loving it
