Can't wait to see the rest
~P~
here are some full body views of the direction I'm taking this piece, really exaggerated proportions.
*Edit* - Damn you josh!!
edit:
so i did a quick foot note pic for ya bud
and i will fight with you on this until the death man... i swear... if i have to fly out to cali and punch you in the junk.... the whole bicep, pec, deltoid intersection... it feels like a noodle :P i'm just sayin'. looks like the forms are just under developed atm. i love what you did with the sternum... totally sick.
i like the calves the way they are for their girth, but if you move the knees down and lengthen the thighs, you may need to add some girth to the calves for a little more weight.
also, if you haven't done this yet, it may be a good idea to go to a lower level and rig it up. play with some poses so you can get a feel for how he would move, how you would want his legs to bend, etc, which will ultimately help you with managing your proportions as you visually make those decisions. it would be better to do this now than get to the end of a low res, posed out, and it starts to fall apart because weight distribution feels unrealistic (even from a stylized standpoint). don't know if that makes sense or not.
regardless... lookin' nice man! peace!

and he looks original, good job!
I second that!
~P~
thirded!
And a nice cane to twirl about as he works the room at fancy dancy parties.
I must say, i love his teeth the mostest. I got a feeling he tries to have intellectual conversations, but nothing comes out. So he makes up for his lack of verbal distinction with the style and class of 1 million gentlemen.
I have all the hi res details finished aswell, but since these were test renders to get the skin shader settings i didn't need them. I'll be doing some more tests and start texturing also.
@DrillerKiller, @undoz, @chademond, @ICESPADE
thanks fellas, i took a step back and noticed i needed to make some serious changes to it...hope you like the recent changes.
haha and sorry guys no top hats:) although he would look totally pimped out with one.
I really hope you take him to the posing stage.
Great stuff, man.
@achillesian- thanks
This.
thanks everyone, i went ahead and started texturing this guy, here is a pretty low res render of where i'm at so far, i still have the veins and such to add in the color map, since this is the level 4 mesh its quite dense but still isn't showing the final high res details like veins and such,I will be using displacement later on for that.
:bear:
@woogity- thanks woogity, hahaha that old thing...lol i did finish it just didnt post it fail...:poly127:
@Firebert- daamn you!!! lol its coming(thats what i said) i wanted to focus on the upperbody first however, i have the entire textures i will post later.
