Skin and model WIP's
polycounter lvl 18
Hey everyone
After avoiding it constantly, i finally gave up and tried to learn how to skin. Thankx to poop's awesome video tut (you rock poop
) i was able to create this skin. I basically just followed everything he did, and didn't try much experimentation. I still have a lot to do, but i wanted to pimp what i already have
****update below****
OH, also i realize the ear doesnt match the model because it isnt as high in pollies. I just used a low poly ear i had, when im done with the head im going to redo that
I know it needs a lot of work, and i realize that the lips are probly too big and that there is too much emphasis on the temple, ill get to those.
But PLEASE offer every kind of crit
i really need to make up for lost time with skinning, and start getting my skill up. i know its not great but its better than i thought i could do thankx
now for something else. Some of you may have seen my Halo 2 Master Chief model. I said i was going to make an SDK for it, but the proportions are really messed up (stupid toy company, i modeled it to that, and the proportions are HORRIBLE) so i have to go back and redo all that, so sorry for the postponement i keep giving.
Anyway from that model, i got an idea for a MOD(for HL2) within the Halo universe that would have the same type gameplay as Republic Commando (Friggin AWESOME). I havent gone public with the idea yet, so i dont really want to say much about it, but if you are looking for a mod project and you want to know more, just let me know(AIM- ZeroX363). I really want to do a GOOD project, because i really need to get my name out there in the gaming world
...ANYWAY, im messing with a generic model base, and i got this so far. You can also see

Let me know what you think of the design, the mesh flow, proportions, or anything else i could or should do with the model.
BTW it has similarities with Master Chief because its suppose to, the mod is within the Halo universe and these guys were another project created by Earth.
Heres a scene i made as well (vert posed, i cant animate) with the old prototype models.

no idea how to do eyebrows, those are just standins
About the eyebrows, think of them as a form, not as strands. once you get the shape and form down, you can detail them and add stuff if it is even needed. The eyes could also use more color, some red, and skintones in them; they are way too white imo.
keep chuckin!
