Travis & Belmondo
polycounter lvl 17
Hello everyone!
Here´s something I´ve been working on a while now.
This guy was going to be Travis (DeNiro in Taxi Driver), I liked him before, but now I see it didn´t come out that well. Anyway, here he is:
Textured - wip, sucks big time so far, but I´m going to - it´s really hard for me to say - use photos... For so long I´ve been trying to avoid that, but I´m going to cheat... I just hope it helps me to get better also at hand texturing (get the colours in the eye and stuff)
Jeans (also WIP) textured with technique described by Mashru Mishu (btw. thanks for that again, MM) HERE
Second character, based on Jean-Paul Belmondo in "The Professional". So far it´s quite WIP, but I´m very satisfied with the result:
I do have also a more recent update, so expect updates. Working on these two guys helped me to get faster at sculpting.

Could you post wires?
One thing i noticed was that their hands look quite big.Or is this intentional?
Also,his skin texture looks a bit like an undead,it could use more saturation.
movento - here are som wires for you... I would like to make nice render with wires over normal mapped model (it would help the presentation a lot), but I´m not quite sure how (I´m using Max). Actually, I´ve been also searching some tutorials and stuff, but nothing that would fit my requirements. As for the hands - yep, I noticed that when I was sculpting and I wanted to fix that. But somehow I figured that there are more issues than the hands. Mostly the textures that really suck, so I´d like to fix that first. You´re right about the saturation, I´ll be texturing it all over again from scratch - using photos as well, altough I don´t like it (I still think about using photos as about cheating or crime against art...), I will try to use simpler lighting while texturing,... too many things to do with that guy.
BELMONDO UPDATE!!!
Hair and pants to be detailed, belt, shirt and leather jacket to be done.
I am not used to see blemondo so serious, but "the professional" is a sad movie after all.
haha yea i agree on that one.
fast1 - Whatever works for you, guys
Belmondo Update:
Turnaround on Vimeo:
Now I´m trying to concentrate on my DomWar entry, so expect new character here soon. Actually, very soon - 10 days left to the end of the war (being pacifist myself it´s funny to complain about war ending so soon
