Iron Man (big dl)
polycounter lvl 18
Hey Guys, Here's another wip. It's Iron Man Fron the Adi Granov Design, which imo Is the coolest Ive ever seen.
Ive got most of the tough stuff done, his thighs shouldent be too involved, but his boots will be pretty complicated.
Vulcan raven Is still going, But I had an urge to model this guy. It's funny, If you spend all day doing environments, The urge to do characters builds and builds untill you just spooge out a ton of stuff. I wonder if it works Vice versa?
anyways...

but This is just for you...
Id say you start throwing some colored materials on those polys and that'll help my eyes see what your going for.
I always liked that rendition of the costume myself.
It also appears that you aren't really going for low poly so I'd start adding more edges & whatnot to clean up refine what youve got going.
well here it is.

For some reason, I thought Adi Granov was female, and the "Profile" page on that website doesn't relieve my confusion.
Well I skinned him. I got the uv's laid out. Im using 4 512's and a 256 for the glowing stuff.I couldve gone less but I didnt want to.
It was cool to put the self illumination on cause it was like I turned on the suit and his eyes lit up, just a cool feeling. Anyways I laid down some base color so you can see where im going with this..
Though the design has a certain similarity to Samus Aran from Metroid...

/me pokes SDK SDK >_>
I decided to give something back to the community. So I present to you my first sdk. Iron man. Enjoy.
Get It here!
Ghost_Rider: i pointed adi (well, adi's wife) in the direction of this thread, i think he'll like it.
You've done a great job with it, and i really like the Smoothing groups on him, it makes it look really sleek and strong.
i can't help but think that the side profile of the forearm is too thin.
aside from that i love it. awesome work.
anyways,
Gettin this party Started!
100% self illum.
But anyways, NICE! Ironman is my second favorite super hero! I love this design of him. I always liked the Ultimate version, but this one is a lot cooler! Can I see the refs?
you can find the refs I used at Adi Granov's site.
Dur23: here you go.
But if you look at adi's art, His iron man has this sort of White noise, water stained look on his armor. Im still trying to figure out how to replicate that. Im about finished with the head.
Render:
You should post this in the 3D art section of the Eatpoo forum, which is located HERE, because Adi is a frequent visitor of the forum and if you mention it clearly in you topic title, I'm sure he'll comment on it
The skin looks good, but it could have been more high res (unles it's for a game) and have a bit more contrast.
Keep it up!
are you going to do war machine skin also, since its just differnet colors?
Here's mine rendered.
I wasn't really sure if I could get the right look down so i just did it this way.
I've not been doing this for too long so go easy on me.

my only quam is that the UV layout could be a bit "tighter." everything feels far apart, and like there is a good bit of space that could be optimized to reduce the texture count.
if you want to change it, ok, otherwise its somethin to keep in mind for future models.
here's what i've got so far. :P
