body paint nasteh :o

almighty_gir

so anyway, getting close to a final pimp, the rig is almost done... just need to finish this particular texture, then move onto the next set.

im working on about 20 different variations of female for jedi academy. starting with the gratuitus (however that word is spelled) semi naked look!



ive never been fantastic at texturing, its not my forte, so any help would be much appreciated!

heres what the unskinned, bald (cant think of any hairstyles right now) head...


and the full body wire:


the great thing about jka, is that just about all the body parts are going to be interchangable, so a lot of, if not all, of the variations are interchangeable. ie. you can run around with pants on, but no top, and with one particular hair style. while your friend runs around in full robes with a different hair style, but its all compiled into 1 model (getting nifty with object surfing ).

thanks in advance! ill post the shots i have of some of the other variations, once this one is finished. (ps. should i release this and some of the other versions as SDK's?).

There's a serious problem with the neck in sideview, it's not wide enough. The bicep is kind of long...but the JA skeleton doesnt help.

I was thinking that the jawbone is shaped oddly. That middle headshot makes it really obvious.

almighty_gir

care to elaborate on that? since its something you can see, but i cant.

notman

It may just be the shadowing at that angle, but the neck seems to attach to the back of the jawbone higher than normal. It makes the distance from the neck to the chin, seem extremely long. It doesn't look very natural.

And although you ripped on your texturing abilities, I think you actually did pretty good.

when i start texturing the head, ill tweak the mesh too. thanks for that =]

Howdy Gir, nice work, she's coming along well, you do have a problem with the neck / jaw though, basically I would say her head is too far forward on the neck.
Try taking a look at some anatomical pics, or even just a side view of an actual skeleton to get an idea how the head and neck fit together.
