ISHII - Portfolio 2012
I'm working on a new portfolio since most of the stuff I have on my current homepage is a bit dated.. Hopefully my new portfolio can open up some work opportunities. I will use this new thread to post my latest work. Thanks for looking!

Touching on character it feels like her face/hair are almost too generic. I would be interested to see what personalities you could bring out by simply giving her some hair with a quick paint over.
i really like her! great attention to detail, the cloth look pretty nice overall. But i think it lacks some gravity here and there, maybe i'm wrong but especially on the lower ends of the skirt/loincloth part i think the folds should be rather vertical than horizontal? basically there are no pressure points and nothing to contract the cloth there. of course there is something like the "foldmemory" of cloth, but still i think it would look better if the wrinkles would fall in that part instead of crumple like the rest of the cloth.
I think the short hair or almost bald head is kinda cool and a bit uncommon on girls, so i would keep that. The military hat would be a nice touch, but maybe you could put it in her hand and still keep the head bald. But what i really think is breaking the haircut is the high spec and glossiness of that part. I think the skin part of the head works pretty well with the fresnel faking all those small hairs catching light from the back, maybe tone that down a bit, in comparison to the cloth it also feels slightly overdone. But i guess the hair/skull area would work better with less glossiness and specularity.

so how it, still has kinda high spec on the parts where you see the skin directly but the structure of the hair scattering the light over the surface, due to the bumpyness of the surface covered by hair? I think that is something you could really tweak and make more believable.
but maybe its just a matter of lighting and would just needs some tweaks in that part to make it look better
I've started on a new char - this time it's a known figure, I'm going for a Xenomorph.
It will be based on the original Alien from 1979, so think man in rubber suit ; )
(But yeah, maybe I should pose her a bit more : )
i just want more pics.
Toolpaddz - You're right, it's not just a 2k texture, more like a 2k for each body part, legs, arms, torso etc.. but this is aimed towards a cinematic character not a game model. I will post some wireframes soon. For now here is the sculpt : )
Keep going let's see how many more you can do in another month.
Can't really critique since you seem to know what your doing already.
