hey everone! i'm new here at polycount. but i have been looking around for some time here as i can see there are many talented dudes. it's very inspiring! i hope i'll be able to learn a lot from you!
i hope i'll have more time to practice in the future, coz i'm too lazy to work after i get home from my job, but i really need to improve myself.

hey this stuff is pretty sweet! I really dig them both. Can't wait to see more

tsabszy

thank you! i'm glad you like them! i hope to show som more work this year

Eoq

Cheers, indeed really nice work. Hows the tris count on the character btw?

tsabszy

thx! it's about 8000 triangles. i know it's a little much for an only diffuse character, but it was marely a practice for hand drawn textures. i should find a good technique for pojection texturing though. most parts here were made in ps, since i find it hard to paint fine details with viewport canvas or body paint. their brush handling is terrible.

ZeroCartin

Beautiful work! Great job, and a great inspiration!

tsabszy

thank you a lot for the comment

SSquir33

well what i started to do for the ds2 challange was a disgrace so i didn't finish it. now i get back to projection texturing. i don't have any experience in it so be patient pls i watched Slipgate's projection texturing tutorial hundred times but i couldn't find a nice solution that's confortable with me to do it. after many experimenting i recently found one so i'd like to practice it in the future. this is my 1st attempt, it's not finished, but any critique is welcome here.

Callesw

Cool design on the head piece! Reminds me of the sc2 chick

MrNinjutsu

Great work in here, liking the texture work on all of them and your female characters!

kevlar jens

Cool stuff.
That female thief looks proper nice!
On that cyborg character, the metal might need some more contrast and shine, to stand out from her skin.

tsabszy

thank you for your comments!
yes it's basically the same as the adjutant character from starcraft, but more of the sc1 than the one from sc2.
i'll try to give it more contrast for sure, i'm trying to be gentle as i have no experience in projection texturing. i guess i was too gentle then

tsabszy

finished version.. could be better, but i hope i'll be able to improve if i do more projection texturing

njc6425

Reminds of the Kara animation done not too long ago I really like it,

Darkleopard

Reminds me of the terran computer chick portrait in starcraft, nice!

Blaisoid

i'd say metal parts still could use more contrast, other than that it looks great.
previous works kick ass as well, chess piece has a really convincing anatomy and texture of thief girl shows awesome material definition.

SSquir33

yeh the metal headpeice could have slightly different metals/mats used, or even sum rubber just to break the monotone scheme, then agen it wud detract from the face soo yeh! great lookin face agen, keep up the low poly goodness!

tsabszy

@ njc6425 - thank you! i loved that animation!
@ Darkleopard - it was not my plans to make her look like that but when i started to texture her i the same thing got into my mind too "additional supply depots required" thank you for commentin!
@ Blaisoid - thank you! you're right! it was a hard challange for me to paint metal, and i was not confortable enough with it to paint more materials..
@ SSquir33 - thanks for the nice words!

any c&c are welcome!

Selaznog

Wow stunning stuff, keep it up!

tsabszy

thought i'd share one of my long ago abandoned projects. a cyborg chick.
it's totally a Slipgate rip-off, but my intention was basically to create an infiltrator character in the world he created at dominance war with his awsome work! i started this back in 2010 december and abandoned the project in 2011 february and since then i haven't touched it. i'm not sure if i'll finish it ever.. i like some aspects of this character, but at the same time there are lots of reasons i should redesign it and start it over. anyway i have tons of work in it, so i hope you enjoy it

tsabszy

practicing some concepting for weapons (for now).
will create some of them in 3d as well to practice hand drawn textures
heavily ispired by
Tyson Murphy

KateC

This is beautiful, really inspiring work. The detail on the tubing on her back is a really nice touch.

tsabszy

KateC thankx! glad you like it

practicing the texturing.. unfortunately i don't have too much sparetime so i started with a small one

418 tris, 256x256 diffuse

makecg

Work looks solid nice !

tsabszy

don't have much time for my weapon project , but here are some sketching at the moment (holy hammer and mace)

Callesw

Nice axe, I like the silhouette! Textures are also coming along nicely

tsabszy

Callesw thank you!

presentation sux, but anyway.. i consider it final :P
did a little touch up on seams and stuff with viewport canvas and that's all.
texture size on the presentation image is the actual size (256x256)

tsabszy

Queen of Blades fan art (basically a copy drawing)

tsabszy

thank you for comment

still doing theese when i have a little time

mr_ace

some great work in here dude, keep at it

CordellC

Love the mechanics on the Infiltrator sculpt.

JoeCyriac

Axe is looking gorgeous. Loving the gnarled wood.

tsabszy

mr_ace thanks for the nice words!!
JoeCyriac thank you! i'm glad you like it hopefully i'll improve myself with time
CordellC thank you! although it's not really a sculpt, i only used zbrush for the face of the chick. other parts are made in 3ds max with traditional hard surface modelling method. here are some construction shots (lot's of things are wip, but i don't wanna finish this work any more, coz it's too much of a rip-off of Slipgate's work)

DaveHansan

Dude the cyborg chick is going to be soooooo sick when its done. OMG its amazing now!

tsabszy

DaveHansan i'm glad, you like it!

finished the hammer:

(model is 1494 tris)



actual texture size here (512x512)

This work is great . I love the axe at the top of page 2. I've got to figure out how to do that sort of diffuse texture style. One thing I will suggest is that you add just a biiiiit more specular to your work? just to add some more contrast and eye candy effect? Love your stuff though .

yeah! you're absolutely right, usually i end up creating rock instead of metal, so that's one weekness i should kill somehow in the future!
thanks for the crit and comment!

i'm extremely proud to announce that my own character takes part of an awsome animation tutorial by Justin Harrison at 3dMotive!

i have been lurking around on 3dmotive website and i can just recommend it to everyone! i have bought some tutorials for myself and am planning to do so in the future becasue they are really great and really useful!!

snake85027

what brush do you like to use when your doing hand painted art and what brush settings do you have set?

ebagg

This sketchbook super nice! I want to see a full body shot of that mech lady quite badly!

tsabszy

snake85027 - here in my improvement thread you can find it (basically hard edged brush with tablet pressure controlled opacity)
http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1635117&postcount=8

ebagg - thx! means a lot! mech lady stays unfinished, so i guess it would never happen but hopefully i'll make a better one some day

tsabszy

Animation in UDK Volume 2. is out.
It's just so great to see my model with those awsome animations by Justin Harrison!

Really like this stuff! I love how stylised your hardsurface work is, while still looking functional.

tsabszy

thank you hotcyder!

I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with the name: Peter Fendrik (Art Director of Digic Pictures), but I'm sure you are familiar with his persoal works out there. Sadly he passed away and as he is a great idol of me, I wanted to create a respect thread in remember of his works.

if you are interested, you can find it this way:
