I started this guy last week during out break in the anatomy sculpting course (and rewatching Hellboy 2 again recently). The hard surface parts are nearly finished, the main stuff to do is the belt (and pouches), hands and some of the clothing folds.


Interesting tidbit: He was actually voiced by Seth Macfarlane (Peter Griffin)

Done some more work on this guy during some downtime between jobs. Almost ready to work on the lowpoly. I'm planning on doing the texturing in substance designer/painter to learn those tools.

Absolutely loving this.

LRoy

This is looking really nice.

Nakedwooki

really looking awesome man.

Mongrelman

Thanks all.

I did the low poly and have been baking the normal and displacement maps which required some faffing (technical term). Here's where he is with the DX11 shader in the maya viewport with tessellation.

Nice work! It's looking great!

I really like that head design.

Mongrelman

@Danex.DC Cheers

@Alex It is very cool indeed, unfortunately I can't take credit for that.


Progress with Substance Designer.

Progress and playing around with Marmosets camera presets.

I finished this a week or two ago but just completed some freelance work so had time to put together the construction images.

The sculpt is really nice, but imo the materials and textures don't do it justice. Seems like you kind of rushed them. are you using PBR? If not then you should.

- Material definition in general could use some work, especially the metals.
- Glass could use some dirt/smudges, unless it's supposed to be brand new.
- The metal has a bad base texture and the bolts are too obviously normal mapped, I'd give the bolts a different texture.
- Cloth could use some staims, it looks brand new atm.

The mesh looks good but the textures are lacking at some parts

The metal, (i can hardly tell what it is, first problem) I guess it is brass - its missing wear and looks a lot like plastic. I think its too rough, and the missing wear is doing the rest. Wear on the clothing especially the leather could improve the overall quality a lot again

Then you seem to forgot AO completely (?) theres a special slot in toolbag for that

The cubemap makes it look like the helmet glass is a lamp with iridescent wires or such, it looks fancy and I like it, but it gives a wrong impression

Lastly, the belt buckle magenta does not fit in your palette, and the buckle itself is too rough aswell for metal
