wip - Rezee - female character

Lez

After beeing inspired from obvious sources I decided to try a handpainted character texture myself recently. Picked up an old model I did in the beginning of school so its not the most optimized with its 6894 tris. But its something I've wanted to finish up for a while now and well... Now I'm almost there I think.

So was hoping that you could help me with some valuable critique. My own initial thoughts are that it feels a bit flat at certain areas and maybe in need of a few more details here and there... and I guess the sword needs some more love... and the T pose needs to go!

It's very nice, only thing that bother me is the amount of detail in the abdomen area, it's very busy and really distracting from the rest of the character.

Looks good, especially the details in the hand painted textures. The thing I'm really not keen on is the hair, it looks like her face is being attacked by ginger tentacles. Also I like the sword design, but it does look a bit like a cricket bat. It also looks a bit more cerimonial rather than battle ready because of the texturing, but I don't know if that was what you were going for?

this is great. Well done with the textures and tri count. Wires please?

Have I maybe seen this before?
Texture looks great Maybe a bit heavy on the dark outlines on the back of the shoes that feels a little bit cartoony compared to the rest. But stellar job overall!

Looks awesome, second the post about getting wires

The textures themselves look great, although I do agree with the bit about the abdomen. Maybe you can enlighten me on the function of this sword? It also looks as if the handle of the sword has a slight 'S' shape and I'm curious if that was on purpose or just a mistake? And to be SUPER nit-picky, theres a seem in the wood on the interior of the shield

@SCB: hah its true, might need to get in some grunge and tare to the sword... Way to late for a rework though.

@ivars: yup, you saw the model at psq

@darbeenbo: I'm not really sure about how my thought process went when I did the sword... I mean its not really that practical, guess you can't stab with it... and the s shape... the s shape... I've got no clue really... quite embarrassing

I'll post the wires and some updates when I get home later.

Well... got a bit caught up in an environment piece I was doing so kinda forgot to run past the finish line with this one. Its well overdue but anyway for those still interested.
