LPC #05 - Fuxer - Nero(DMC4)

fuxer

Hey guys,i'm jumping in
I'm starting right now and hopefuly tomorrow i'll show some progress.

fuxer

Here's the model.The character is at exactly 499 tris :P,the sword is 86.I'm saving some polys to use them somwere else,if needed.

TheSplash

Looks quite accurate, I think you did a good job on the head. Perhaps pull the back of his coat near his neck out a tiny bit more to shape his hood better. Also the gap between his fingers looks a bit wide. Other than that it looks great.

You could use those extra polys for his gun

fuxer

yep that's what i'll do tnx

Japhir

looking ace! looking forward to your textures!

fuxer

Tnx Japhir i hope you like this new update.
I think i'm kinda done with the texture.Right now i'm posing him and tomorrow i'll get back to the texture and refine some things.
The character is at exactly 500 Tris and both weapons are 147 tris.I dont think i forgot to model anything so im right in the specs :P

Japhir

sweet! love your stuff lately, your lowpoly altair was great too! and you work really fast too!

fuxer

tnx.I have been very busy lately so i didn't do anything new...Its good to be back at modelling :P

Jaco

That's looking awesome fuxer

fuxer

oh well,i felt like submitting it hehee

Funky Bunnies

total badassery, man

fuxer

tnx man
I did a quick anim too

Wendy de Boer

Awesome model and texture! The jump animation is too floaty though, especially when he lands. I think he needs to come down quicker and have a deeper knee bend to convey weight.

fuxer

agree'd I'll fix it,thanks

Xaltar

Love your shit fuxer, your altair was sick and this is almost as cool.

<---- never going to win one of these challenges

fuxer

i fixed the anim,hope its better now

Xaltar thanks man,good to know
I'll be adding more low poly models to my collection soon.

Funky Bunnies

I think the awkwardness of the jump is mostly because there's very little anticipation - he just springs into the air. If you exaggerate the buildup with him bending his legs a bit before he springs up, I think it'd look more natural.
The rest looks awesome though!

sama.van

Oh shit!!! Nice! I like this version of Nero!!

fuxer

Tnx sama.van
I'm sorry i started him before i saw you did him too

Funky Bunnies i'll fix that aswell

Eclipse

that texture is just sick and the animation is coming along well, he deforms great. have any useful tutorials you can point me two on how to rig up a character such as this?

fuxer

Eclipse i just use Character Studio and i use rigid vertexs to assign to the bones.Its very simple,really.
