a pair of models

aesir

I havent pimped anything on these boards in a while... so heres a couple models that I've done in the last week or so. Probably more work to do on the critter with the slappy hands, and I might make a low poly model for it and normal map it if I have time, but probably not for a little while.

Anyways, fun practice





Let me know if you've got crits on either ones. No doubt both of them could use some work in some areas.


One other thing, does anyone have a good way of giving a creature scales in zbrush? Should I just make a custom alpha and then go to work on it in projection mode?

On the hand model, you have the depression in the middle running all the way straight into the wrist. However, the palm depression does not extend to the wrist. The base of the hand is basically flat across unless the hand is flexed, and the tendons on the wrist actually raise the skin up, instead of pulling it in.

In addition to that, the thumb looks a little short, and a bit too sausage-like at the tip. You need to add the taper. http://wearcam.org/dusting/dustbox/finger_icons/thumb.jpg

i agree w/the tips presented by dfacto.

ah, nice dfacto. I'll try and make a few adjustments on that.
