Really sweet work! If I had one comment, it would be that he looks like he has two left feet. Since the inner grooves are missing on his feet, they look kind of wrong. Besides this little nitpicking, love your work!:)
As his body lays dead on the battlefield, he shalll be a death worth remembering hahaha
Ya know mate, you now have 4 comments in this thread about his feet, and as I look at them again sober from this angle, I really do think their shape lets him down. They really do feel like 2 left feet and there's something kinda stumpy feeling about them. It's a little distracting. Definitely worth looking at I think.
yeah i wasn't ignoring your original crit daz hehe, i figured it'd be alot easier to tweak that on the lowpoly once everything got projected, i just moved a couple of verts here and there and it looks alot better now
I was really wondering how the normal would render with such a detailled model and honestly I'm blown up by the quality of this model definitely ut2k7+ quality.
can't wait for the texture man
Rockstar is cheating, he is just posting his hi poly model with a wireframe layer on top of it Seriously though this model really looks awesome, can't wait to see more! :bowdown:
I see a diffuse in the thumbnail and am jealous. As far as the normal map/high poly model goes, I think it's very impressive... but too busy. You'll probably fix this with the textures, but I find its hard to find any focus on the model with all the lines going everywhere.
But that's just my opinion since everyone else likes it so much <.<
and here we go with the textures, i'm pretty happy with how its coming along, now just need to model up the base and the weapon and pose this thing up.
lots of enjoyable detailing while retaining readability. the glow-y bits are kind of a cop-out but i suppose helpful in showing he is clearly a 3rd millenium type guy i'd be lying if i said i wasn't pretty damned stoked to see him finally textured up. looking forward to what weapon/pose etc you give him.
excellent work!
Good job lightening up the background from the previous WIP i saw;) Helps alot.
I dig the markings and subtle shifts of color in the skin.
Anychance you can pop a little blue/green color over the vein?

Okay, okay... totally awesome, and probably this would win the comp just like it is but there is one thing I don't like about the maps. The double gold inlay around the central chest plate makes it really pop out, and it is the shape of the Superman insignia. I hate Superman, but when I look at the character now I can't help having that spring to mind.
Model is incredible and the texturing is coming along nicely. I will say the diffuse seems to have taken away a bit from his "evilness". The face is just a little too mortal.

I LUB U!

How did you get the meshes to line up so cleanly when you were rebuilding? Did you use some sort of snap-to-surface tool?
This one MUST be finished, for the GLORY of POLYCOUNT! It's just TOO awesome not to finish!
