Hi there Polycount!

Hi there fellow Polycount members!

My name is Antonio Karlsson , and I am a student at the PlayGroundSquad University in Falun, Sweden.

We are doing basic video game characters, and we have just spent about 4 days to create a game character which should have game friendly topology. I was told to go to the Polycount forums by my instructor and post my work and get some feedback on the work I've done.


Here is a picture with occlusion baked into the verts.

And here is one with the wireframe

The model was created using these images as reference.

I would be happy for any feedback!

Hi Antonio,

The character itself looks pretty slick! Looking forward to the textured one.
When looking in the 3D viewer it seems like the tail has some errors, like n-gons and bad triangulated faces. Maybe it's a shader error but if it isn't you should fix those

Looking nice the mesh doesn't have any N-gons tail just looks like it has 2 when viewed from TOP view.I would love to see this textured in hand-painted style.

Snader

The feet could drop a lot of polygons, and the necklace thing should have that button(?) textured in or handled as floating geometry IMO. The feathers could do with some extra polys to smooth out the silhouette.

Update!

Thanks for all the feedback!

I made some changes to it.

Today we UV mapped the character.
I unwrapped the character with the texel densety of 20.

there are some UV waste, so I was hoping to get some feedbank on how to improve it!

Update 2!

This time I've textured the Chocobo, using one 512x512 diffuse map.




C&C are welcome
