Pen² from NGE
polycounter lvl 17
Hi everyone.
Im new here and in modeling. Here's my first post at this forum. The character is based on an anime.
I liked the char and the overall idea of his living room. I hope you can give me some comments and crits for this, thank you ^^

Thanks for the crits and the comments, here is a little update.
I added more detail at the "mouth" and the feet and tried to add more polys for the armpits.
I happened to have watched an episode of this the other night, and was completely confused by the emperor penguin that lived in their livingroom and drank beer.
Naturally I thought it was awesome. He's looking pretty much as I remember he did, though his feet seem awfully dense.
The last one especially for the feet.

only crit the 3 button thing that he uses to open the door shouldnt be part of the big mesh if you extract it and merge all the verts below together you get a lower polycount with practicly no visual-quality loss
the inside of his beak probably doesn't need that many divisions, could probably merge the middle three into one.
His eye-brow crest thingies: they look good from the side, but you can see in the reference sheet they should be able to turn almost perpendicular to his face for expression - or at least the back part. Might want to flare them out a bit to either side rather than just going straight back.
Personally, I would probably have just made his fingers intersecting geometry, saved some polys and some grief when it comes time to weight him.
Definately looks like him, though!
i hopefully fixed all problems and would now start texturing.
