Steven Gerrard
polycounter lvl 19
if anyone saw my previous thread about the soccer player, this is how it's going. I decided to go on Steven Gerrard (was going to do Ballack before, but I changed my mind).
It's a work in progress. Only the boots, socks and legs are normalmapped so far (I would call those sections as done but crits could be good). The head texture isn't finished but it's getting there, just forget about the neck for now
ok I'll shut up now. pic:

oh yeah textures, uses a 512x512 for the clothes, a 256x256 for the head, a 256x256 for the boots, and a 256x256 for the body together (hands, arms, leg skin).
they are split like this because they were for a game and needed to be changed from the others for different players.
this -was- intended for a game but it was cancelled (don't you hate people who don't know what they want?) - the project changed into an overhead shooter and my pay wouldn't come till two weeks more and it was going to be crap anyway so I left the team. So the model is useless, but I guess it will do a nice portfolio piece so I decided to finish it (and since every modeller job post I see nowadays requires normalmapping abilities, I decided to do that too).

made normalmaps for the shorts, the shirt, the arms and the head. still need to work the face a little
comments welcome
CMB: hmm I don't get it how are my normal and diffuse maps not contributing any texture?
and he looks unhuman in what sense?
some more elabore}ation would be useful here
The bags under his eyes look a little weird too
I'm new here and i'm looking for generic human body references to modelling a soccer player too.
Could you tell me what reference have you used to do this? or how you started the soccer player model?
Thanks in Advance,
Gustavo
