This is pretty cool to have, so I'll contribute some of my stuff. I'm a big fan of fighting games, so most of what I do for fun is based on that.

I'm open to your critiques.

Here's the last one I did, spending two nights on it in Zbrush mainly.

Quick sketch before 3d modeling.

Box modeling practice in 3dMax, I made a few of these today but here's one.

Right now my average time for this stage is a little under 30 min.

props. I really like that tree, and your Jin shows some pretty good looking musculature. Good work!

Cool thanks for the feed back.


Ok for today I was doing the box modeling practice again, but this time using Maya, which I'm not very much used to. I found it very difficult to model in this program. It took me twice as long to make this in Maya and it's not as pretty...

I noticed the tweak option for the move tool in Maya seems a lot harder to use than the Shift tool in 3dMax. I have to select the points directly for it to work in maya, and Max is't more like the move in Zbrush.

I wonder if there is a way to make the tweak in maya use a larger faloff instead of having to select point by point?

The goal is more about speed with these, I can fix the look in Zbrush later, I know they are ugly.

Box modeling an ear on the last head ^.

I used the extrude, collapse and delete edges method, then brushed it a little in ZBrush.

I don't model this way usually but I wanted to try a technique I saw in Taron's Head modeling DVD.
