Fatos's art corner

Fatos

Hello,
My name is Fatos Tahiraj, I am aiming to become a good character artist.
I will share my practice and personal projects here.
Thanks for passing by.

Here is my fan art of  Paul Richards's work.  https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Xk3Gl

I am still not happy with the feet and will improve them.

Fatos

Hello,
I didnt post in a long time, but here I finaly could work more on this project and I think I am done with the highpoly.

I quite happy with his look now.

Fatos

Had some time and made his weapon, and made the lowpoly for everything and  tested some colors un substance painter.

I am still not sure how exactly to texture it, but Im aiming for a stylised type of texturing. I will put news more frequently for now on.
Thanks for watching. 

Fatos

Hello, I continued to work the texturing, It was really hard but I learned a lot on how to approach stylised texturing.
Still not finished but I happy with the direction its taking.
here are quick screenshot, I will make some ohter with higher resolution later.


And only Albedo here.


If you have any advice please feel free to comment, and thanks for looking.

Hello, I tried that but I felt that with the way the armor is bending It did not look good except when looking from the front. I will share you the screen with the paint marks.

Thanks for the compliment !

great work! the cigar add a lot of personality

I feel like the design is awesome and the posed shot you've done is cool. The only thing that's missing from the piece is some proper material definition/break up.

Another damage pass, break up on the metals, etc. would help a lot. I'd be careful not to go too crazy with it as it's still a stylized piece with broad shapes. Anyway looks great 😁

Love the simplicity of the design, while the textures are still detailed and stylized.
Really cool!

Fatos

Hello, Thanks you all for the comments, I really appreciate it !
