Whooohah! i’m diggin’ this model Desse. I must say, i think this one is the best character you’ve done to date. Morphs look cool and those ears look great too man.

I’ve finally got some textures on the lamp! I also finished the ribbing on the lamp post.
As always, there’s more tweaks to come, but I’m basically happy with it.
I’m going to finish the base, ground it, and finalize textures, and put it to bed.
Merry Christmas to all.

Love the lamp! You mentioned on the Lux forum that you are a Maya user. Was this rendered in Maya? Well done all way 'round.

Lookin’ forward to seeing what Luxology comes out with in the new year.
I love modo!

This was the first test project I started when I bought modo. It was never really intended for anything other than a simple test, but it came out fairly well. I was going to clean it up more, but I just haven’t had a lot of time recently, so here it is.

really impressive …
you should add a little bit of procedural on the metal … to give him a somewhat older and rusted look
could perfectly fit with the setting i want to put my pilote in …
nice to see that i am not the only one inspired by the asian culture
i plan to start on the body tomorow

What are your thought’s regarding modo at this point?
well… without wanting to be stamped as a fanboy or other kind of apllication integrist …
i really feel confortable in modo , coming from a lightwave background , and having a good knowledge of the modelling tools in xsi ( that i used for production work and still use from time to time )
i was able to dive into modo really fast … 1 day … may be less
even if right now the history or some other tool , is not as powerfull as xsi or maya , i really enjoy the pretty straight forward and intuitive approach that modo have ,
and tacking account that modo is still in his infancy compared to the other older application
- this is a really stable piece of software for a 1. version
- it look like luxology is really listening to theyr customer and try to give theim what they want ( upgrade
conclusion ?
i really like modo , and since i use it … i did not fire up my lightwave modeller anymore … just using lightwave for riging , texturing and rendering …
and i dare to imagine that in some future… …well that another story … :rolleyes:

Xtrm- it looks great. I love the render, it has that illustrative quality that I love.
great work.
I had mentioned that I was going to model a character next…
I’ve already got a thread going over on the lux forum, but I’ll throw it up here too.
Still so much to do, it never ceases to amaze me how much work goes into a 3d character.
