Saw the mini challenge on CGchat and got inspired.
I liked the idea of this contest, but I had zero time to devote to it, so I did a speed run tonight. From start to finish, it ook about seven hours.
I thought it would be cool to take a cutesy character and adapt it to a more rugged game, so I took Rainbow Brite,

And tried to redesign her for the fallout universe. It was a fun exercise overall, and I'm happy with it for the time spent.
Cheated a little, final tri count is 362 tris.

So she lost a little of her Brite and got addicted to heroin instead?
Nice work
I like the back view of the mesh, and the knee texture tho.
I know its against your blunt style of crits b1ll, but they could do with a little added tact.. hard to listen to crits when they're semi-insulting..

That's just how b1ll is. Nobody reads what he says anyway, they just look at pretty pictures and ignore the text. Har har har!
poop: I like her overall. She's certainly got the rainbow, but she could use a little more brite. Very dull and soft pallete. She could still be wicked and 'fallout-ish' with a brighter, more punchy pallete.
I really like the mesh for the polycount.

I agree with bobo about the tones, but I feel like something that could help right off the bat, is to give some sort of impression of femininity in the face, I understand your going for like a sigourney weaver aliens 3 thing with the shaved head and lack of makeup, but you could make the lips pouty or darken the eyes to suggest eylashes or soften the face by pulling a few verts.
oh yeah and fix the crossed eyes.

I was worried about the mannish look too. It was hard with so few polys to try to pull off a curvy skinny chick, since they curves become really important in a slender woman. I also wanted a bit wirey gaunt look so she would look like she'd been living in a wasteland instead of fresh of the models bench. But in the end, I agree she is probably too mannish. I was looking at so many naked women though! Oh pr0n, why have you failed me?
And yeah the texture is blurrier than I'd like, but I'm also going to blame the short turn around on that. I'd definately work on the crispiness during a revisit.
Thanks for the crits guys. I was looking to flex a little creative muscle quickly and the contest inspired me, so I rushed it, and the quality level suffered a bit, but still I had fun.
Also, lol @ heroine comment Mop.

You don't need concept sketches when you're hardcore.

Great idea for a revamp, Poops, but I agree with previous crits. Sorry I can't add anything worthwhile.

Well, I guess there is always copy and paste.
btw, poop, I dig the model alot. I like your interpretation with the texture, but id love a more colorful Rainbow bright.
This is the rainbow bright I would make.

Well then I'll say it. DEAR LORD IT'S HIDEOUS! KILL IT!
But yes, that is probably what she would look like in the Fallout universe. Crackwhore with a giant freak arm.
Nice model and texture, but the concept disturbs me.
