My work need some crits...

Omar_Nabiev

Hi everyone!
I will post some of my old works here, they are about 2 years old, my skills are emproved, so i thought, it would be good to "update" my old work, so i could put them to my portfolio.
This forum was always a great inspiration for me, i would love to see some crits about my work from you guys.

Please sorry of the large image sizes, the normal/textured versions shots is just a screengrabs, i don't know how to render them properly.

ok, let's go:
1) Oldwoman character, hires

---hires2---

---Diffuse+Normalmaps---



---American Soldier 3D Max hires---


---German Soldier 1 Hires---

textured:

---German Soldier 2 Diffuse+Normalmaps---


Hires:



Thank you, more to come...

The characters feel a bit stiff,try tilting the torso back a bit for more balance.
Cloth modelling looks good, but the texturing could use some work. It's very uniform, add some variation be it with color,dirt or specularity.
Overall it's pretty good, I think a specular map would add a lot to it though.

thank you Jaco.

Hi all, i'm planing to put my works on my website, so i wonder, if i want to apply for a character modeler, should i include in my portfolio such works as levelobjects, weapons, low-poly game houses/structures with textures? Or just a characters ?

Hey man these are some pretty solid textures. Looks like they could belong in the Golden Compass game (check some of the models on Liquid Development site).

Good luck buddy.

Omar_Nabiev

thanks, never heard about Golden Compass game, i'll check that out.

I like the Maelstrom stuff

The things from the earlier posts were boring texture-wise.

are there spec maps on these models? i think the models are fine but the texturing is kinda boring, along with fabric why not put designs on the clothes or maybe some snow thats caught on to her clothes.
-you havent textured the American soldier or german soldier 1 yet but dont make them anything like the German soldier 2, meaning dirty him up, even if those are new fresh army clothes, i personally like how a soldier looks after a long hard battle.

overall really good work. I like the netting on the soldier's helmet. Would like to see a closeup of how you did that.

The textures..yeah kinda boring but they do serve their purpose. My take is that the figures in the beginning were being developed for a realistic shooter type of game.

The work you did on Maelstrom is much more interesting. Really clean work. Maybe place in some spec maps?

the first pictures are from "Death to Spies" pc title, wich is already shipped. It's a stealth-action game. Here you can find a screenshots if intrested: http://smersh.games.1c.ru/?action=screenshots&groupid=16

I agree, about the texures, and yes, spec maps would add more to it. I'll fix all that soon.
