The Inspector - Critique Welcome

MHilt · Mar 2018

Hey all,

Here is a character I'm working on for my portfolio. Here's a recent screenshot of the hi-poly. I'm in the process of reworking and splitting the hard surface elements up then I'll move on to retopology for final detail and polish. Hair is also being reworked and split up into separate subtools to help with the soft transition between each major section of hair. Critique is very welcome.

Early sketches for the character concept as well as pose/silhouette.

Rotate his palms so it's facing down towards the floor. They're currently not in as neutral of a position as they can be. Will make your rigger and animator happier.

Will do, thanks for the critique.

I finally got around to finishing up this guy, free time for personal work has been scarce. Critiques are very much welcome!

i LIKE THIS CHARACTER, VERY WELL DESIGNED! The only thing I would say is I would like to see more of the Yellow energy light thing built into his robotic arm, I see the 3 little ones but it doesn't feel enough to me. Maybe enlarge those or add more? just a thought

Really like the stylization man, nice work. What material are you using in Keyshot? Looks sweet

Thanks! I appreciate the critique. I thought about adding some extra atmospheric particle cards to help bring focus to those areas, maybe some volumetric lights coming from those light sources. Maybe eventually.

Thanks a lot. The material is called Orange plastic Black & Decker. Just edited the diffuse, roughness and refraction. Also has a very subtle AO pass overlayed at low opacity in PS.
