The human, textured and rigged.

#22

Nice modeling and texturing. May be you could ad a little more details to the belt.

i like the textured human … keep it coming

#24

I can’t quite define it, but there’s a hint of comic book style about your realism which gives your 3D work a really nice edge. These new figures look excellent. The human has got that classic hero look about him and the alien is, well there’s no doubt he’s alien. There’s a lot of character in this stuff and I’m enjoying watching it take form. No crits from me

#25

Thanks for the comments and crits guy. More coming soon.

#26

Now the big alien textured and rigged. I’ve also changed their uniforms up a bit.

#27

And here is the small gooy alien.

#28

Ya, I’ve noticed that about my work as well. I like it but, I really can’t figure out either. It’s probably just a lack of skill or something.

#29

LOL! I sure wouldn’t call it lack of skill. I really like it and I think it’s a really cool quality in your work.

Gooey alien looks fantastic! :thumbsup:

I felt like painting some stars.
Following a method by Greg Martin.

#31

those stars are amazing! i love them, and your character design is great, very appealing characters!

#32

good designS!! & Ｉ like stars!

#33

A cozy little camp fire. High tech indeed.

#34

Great so far.
Love that fire.
are you going to try and design it more like your characters?

#35

Kory, thanks for stopping by. Truely, it’s an honor. But I’m not sure what you mean.

#36

I just mean that there is a level of playfullness that is in your sharacters that is missing in the realistic fire. I always think it’s nice to see a graphic quality in the FX aswell as the characters and the environment.
it unifies the illustration.

just some thoughts. I am sure you know what you are shooting for.

#37

I love that starry sky. That will make a superb backdrop.

Re: Kory’s comment about the fire looking more realistic than the rest of the scene, maybe you could simplify the rock textures a bit - make them less gritty and also less rough and therefore more ‘friendly looking’ and also ever so slightly cartoony. Just a suggestion because I don’t know if that would work and I don’t want to waste your time…

#38

Thanks guys. I appreciate the feed back. I think I’ll see how things look together as I start to assemble the scene.

#39

A new quick little alien. My idea is developing a bit more.

#40

That is possibly the cutest alien I’ve seen … adorable!
