Ano and Pepper - Character

undoz

Hey guys,

Here's a new character I'm working on for my portfolio. I still have to rig and pose him for the final shot.

I would appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks!

praxedes

that's lovely. If I had a single crit, I'd say the arms lack much silhouette. I know he's young but they're quite undifferentiated along their length. Other than that, gorgeous work. And the top view (presuming it's the game mesh) compared to the textures shows your normal maps are working really well- hardly any AO on the cloth, all ocming through in the normals! Great!

~P~

MrMachete

the eyes are scarring me in the black and white shot looks great though!

zxcman

Very nice!

glynnsmith

This is lovely. Very charming work, indeed.

Tom Ellis

Awesome work, really nice.

The shoes are incredible, in fact the texture as a whole is really impressive.

What did you render the beauty shot with?

conte

extraordinary work, undoz. glad to see that textured!

cadyw

really nicely modeled and textured! my only concern is he's on the edge of.... unappealing to me. a little scary, in an unappealing way. Maybe the mouth is too big? Also, if he's a guy he needs less manicured eyebrows Really nice though!!

The_Kozmonaut

He reminds me of chucky, and growing up I was deathly scared of chucky. So this guy creeps me out... But the texture work is really solid and the dog is cute

DrunkShaman

Nicely Done Undoz!! I assume you are going to post a clip after your rig implementation and a simple walk cycle of the her, and the dog?

I have no crits about this.
Good work

AimBiZ

Lovely design!

kodde

Awesome style.

makes me think of AKIRA, but HAPPY!!

seforin

I love this character. But please can you rig/ pose him nicely in something dynamic looking?

undoz

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

I will see what I can tweak to change his appearance, because I don't want to do bake him again. If it's creeping you out that was not my intention

creationtwentytwo: It was rendered in max's scanline , three lights and ambient.

Nitewalkr: An walk cycle is too much for me maybe some idle animation.

seforin: Yep, that's what I planing to do next.

roosterMAP

wow. amazing quality. i wanna see funny short-story anims from this model.

Alberto Rdrgz

fucking LOVE THIS! keep it up man!

neosorcerer

maybe this will help

eyes are too wide, iris should be partly covered by eyelid
eyelashes?
eyebrows should be thicker
smaller mouth
i

undoz

Yes, that definitely helps! Thanks a lot !

The truth is that I've modeled him with an extreme expression hoping that it will make my life easier on the morphing stage.

Xoliul

Wow yeah, huge difference neosorcerer makes there. I was gonna say he looks a bit creepy/ unappealing but if you fix it like that it'll be perfect.

Noren

Hi,

I really love those two!
But I have to say that I was assuming that "he" is a girl.
Perhaps it's the high and thin eyebrows and strong upperlids paired with the small nose.
I know that's caused by his expression, which also makes the rendering more interesting to look at than a dull standard-stare. But perhaps it would be a good idea to try and nail down the basic relaxed look now. Unless you really just want one single rendering in the end. Would be a shame though, if you ask me. Those two have great potential.

b1ll

I dig it!

I would increase the hand size a bit, but thats a personal choice..

_Shimmer

Hey this looks very nice!
Love it

Jasp

fantastic character. Personally love it as it is

GregStrangis

Looking great man!! I personally like his buggy eyes. The hi poly looks great as well.

spider2544

reminds me of chucky haha

kodiak

great proportions, super clean texture work, not a space marine or stupid-ass monster - and! - theres a puppy! awww a puppy.


This work deserves a high five, but alas - the internet.

spider2544

reminds me of chucky haha

CheeseOnToast

+1 for the original, slightly wall-eyed version. The "cute" one I've seen a thousand times before. I like the creepy version, it's a bit "edgier".

A.Kincade

This turned out awesome. Love it!!!

StefanH

excellent character. very well done bake to lopoly

Michael Knubben

+1 to the original over the 'cuter' version!
I like the attitude of the original much more.

undoz

Thanks a lot for the feedback guys!
I've tried to address the problems that have been mentioned. So here's the final shot I hope

Spatz

really great character and awesome base...i really really love it !...only thing i would do is give the dog a bit more pose...maybe show the dog jumping or so ...you know...only a littlebit more dynamical than now...

undoz

Spatz: Thanks man. I thought about it and I did some research on animation movie posters and other characters in this genre and usually the pose of the characters is pretty static, so I went with the easy option

Tom Ellis

Hey Undoz, really awesome work with the posed shot.

I just have a question. I was checking out your diffuse map for some inspiration (and tips ) and I couldn't seem to find the hair pieces? Am I missing them or are they genuinely hard to spot... or are they not there?!

Cheers

Progg

How did you do the rendering?

Josh_Singh

Totally PRO! I am in love with it.

bbob

This style is totally fresh, love it!

conte

Muzzoid

I agree , other then that this looks great

POFFINGTON

Idk I kind of like the creep factor. I think it makes it more hilarious. Nice grass stand btw

undoz

Whoa, thanks a lot for the comments guys! Very very honored to be here.

This is the last version of the model :



Cheers!

TorQue[MoD]

The only thing I would say is that I actually thought this was a little girl, not a little boy. I think its probably to do with the shape of the face and as neo pointed out, the eyebrows are too thin. Otherwise its a stellar character... looks on par with Pixar!

00Zero

oh , i thought it was a little girl this whole time. haha. looking great

Tallooriravi

Nice Suggestion but Do what you have in your vision.

you done great job.

dn-revenge

sexy it is!
