Machineflesh 3D Challenge Entry: Martin Sen
hi
remember him? ;p
re-modelled the legs, they look more sturdy and stronger. I think this looks better for the overall shape.
added some clothing, belt is WIP but pretty close to what I have in mind.
closer view on the head - been working on adjustments trying to make everything prefect b4 I move on to texturing.
fixed the head implant to match the ‘Brain’ character’s set.
Fixed the skin wrinkles surrounding the implants.
added eyes
added bag wrinkles under the eyes
added teeth
added the ear
fixed nose wrinkles to look like it’s being pulled - c/c?
need to fix some problems in the shoulder/skin area.
Got the character rig done for the upper body…legs should be very quick
I’m a bit behind my schedule… I’ve been busy packing and getting everything ready for my trip, so I’ve not been able to dedicate 100% to this challenge this weekend :((
Atm, most of the modelling work is done. Will need to pick it up and tweak when I get back.
For the meanwhile, I’ve named him “Bobo” ;p
c/c much appreciated.
cheers
Hi Versiden,
Awesome work! The sense of mass is pressing the ground, Bobo’s balance is so fine. I’m not sure, but following crits can help you to turn this beautiful charcter into life.
Maybe mouth is empty a lil’. I can feel gravity on the chest’s skin, but abdomen’s skin is different.
I can’t tell you anything else now… all your work is keeping my attention.
cya:wavey:
test render with both characters in the scene.
wire work I will to tweak and refine. Just a placement to see how things might look when everything is in place.
image is a bit grainy to reduce render time… this still took about an hour!
atm, characters are not doing much, but when I come back I can add more morphs, and rig the wires so it follows their head movments.
thanks for the crits,
Tremoside, im glad to see your observations on the gravity. The way I approached it was the the abdomen centre is pushing up (causing the breast wrinkles) and also moving downwards slightly from gravity + the belt. - lol, did that come across right?It’s been reduced quite alot and not as huge as the earlier model - didn’t look right, the size as it is atm I’m very happy with… I suppose that’s just personal taste.
cheers all… will be back in 3 weeks
Wow amazing. It’s alive now :buttrock: REally good work, nothing to crits man. go for the texture…
keep rockin:thumbsup:
Hi Versiden,
you put together what have to be together…Great progress and effort man!!! :applause:
Lookin’forward to see the chars textured…
Keep on flowin, dude 
Really great, I like it a lot. Although the illustration is whimsical, the concept makes sense: why evolve, if you can surrogate another? Sort of like our current passion to vicariously live through steroid enhanced athletes, as well as silicone and surgery enhanced movie starsâ¦
Hi Martin,
As i see the things together…congrats. I can’t say anything more.
They will be superb…with moved bodies…textures.
Keep it up!
hi all
back from Holiday!! whoa… what an experience…
10 countries, 16 days… mad fun
now to swamp thru 4000 + photos, and 4 hours of video… w00t!
thanks for the crits
wow, every1 has been progressing nicely…
I figure I have about 3 weekends to get this finished… ouch… hope I can get everything done… I think I still have some modelling to do!
and I still have no idea for a background ;((
l8r
Hi Martin, hope you’ve had wonderful days…10 countries??? Did u do some cruising over the seven seas?? Cool, mate:bounce:
…but now, back to work, 'cause u don’t want to dissapoint your fans here, do u?

Lookin’ forward to see your progress.!!!:wavey:
For the environment I could imagine an arena like the one in StarWars EP2…Old, antique, but somehow strange and destroyed like a ruin…extraterrestrial thing-like that or so…
my first real texture submission…
been really lazy after the holiday… but I’ve got 2 weeks left and better finish this quickly.
Here is the texture for Bobo, just wanted to get my foot in the door with this…
Still alot to do, and alot of clean-up / finalize…
quite happy with the colors atm…
Eye’s aren’t textured.
hi,
I like concept. The ‘alien’ upstair is really expressive, we understand quickly that he’s the chief. I’m sure that he wouldn’t let sommeone take the place where he is.

great stuff. ![]()
