Races of Middle Earth - character - dmonk

No morph maps yet the defualt morph will be with the mouth open because i have to close the mouth with the teeth in it. I have so little time these days with work and all. Hopefully this weekend the gods of 3d will grant me the ability to model some kick as ears at least.

Jerseys still cold and it snowed like a mofo last night I find out as i’m looking out the window. This just means the eagles are gonna kick tampa bays ass this sunday.

E-A-G-L-E-S

Thanks for the comments Pigwater. Anyone else feel free to chime in if they think this completely sucks or think its better than a 5 years old attempt at modeling.

Hasta la Pasta! time to put in another 9 hours at the mortgage company.

I’ve been slacking. I started the ears, they still are a bit goofy looking and the teeth aren’t 100% yet.

Tell me what you think. I’m going to work on it some more tonight.

#36

Coming along nicely :slight_smile:

The shoulders are a little oddly shaped though… And he needs nipples desperately!! :smiley:

There is something about his face that reminds me of the character “Roach” from the 80’s film “The People Under The Stairs” :surprised

#37

heh … funny … reminds me of Kevin Bacon … nevertheless the model is tre nice …

#38

Leigh :
My girlfriend said the same things about the shoulders so I’m gonna make some changes. Ant the nipples are coming. Unless I decide the this race doesn’t have nipples, But nipples are great and every creature needs nipples so I guess they’ll go in.

Elloco:
Kevin Bacon? I would have never seen that. Thanks for the comp.

:wavey:

… no problemz dmonk … was watching ‘the hollow man’ a few days ago and yer character reminded me of K.B. … while you’re at the shoulders you might wanna look at the collarbone too … the tendons from the neck seem to go over it and connect to the pectorals … just an observation …

#40

I noticed that I just haven’t gotten to it yet. Thanks though.:wavey:

#41

Green or Grey? Just trying out the xsi exp on my home pc. They have this eyeshader but I don’t know if i’m going to use it. Sorry for the slow progress. I’m just to tired at the end of the day to work on this.

#42

it sucks but theres no way in hell I’m finishing by the deadline. But you will see this guy in the work in progress section.

I was think how much this character reminded me of nightcrawler, who knows.

Oh well.

Another one bites the dust.

#43

It’s been fun!:wavey:

#44
