The model looks really well done, nice work!
The texture however looks more like concrete than metal. Where is the spec?

Mr Ray

yea i have trouble getting metal to read as metal an not concrete tips??
I havent painted my spec map yet so its jus the diffuse on 60%

Edit:
Did a quick spec map an this is what it looks like so far

Wells

I believe he meant painted specular on your diffuse, not necessarily a spec map.

you've very little highlights, if any. or perhaps they're just not strong enough...

any chance we can get a peek at the texture flat? would be more helpful.

Ive messed around with the colours and spec map abit and moved some verts on the head to make him look less young. Painted a lil bit more on the texture too, hopefully its more readable as metal...
