Joakim, Hot! You're really pushing yourself in zbrush i'm loving it. Thats one nasty looking beast. I know the webpage isn't updated yet. I wanted to update it with some new content all at the same time but i seem to be having a hard time comming up with anything lately.
How'd you start on this one? Zspheres or a cage from max?

"(fat) assassinzz!!!"
ha ha
oh my god i lost it eh?
yup see folks im getting old innit.
well anyways dude your stuff are sssssuper nice.. keep em coming!
and what are you posting underground like this anyways
start a thread man, show us how much hair u have on your chest, etc. :?
playing around with zbrush. some of you may remember this model from awhile ago. plan on doing a whole zbrush pass on the body also. give the rest the quality it so rightly deserves.
I'm trying to improve myself on heads. This one's polycount got a bit higher than expected (around 2200 tris) but it might do it for the next generation hehe. I also modeled the interior of the mouth, teeth and so to try to do some facial animations. But what is the best way to do them to be used in a game: morph targets or build a facial bone structure?

Nice to see so many Z-brush doodles, keep at it guys!
this is a very wip mech of haohmaru. For those of you who dont know, he is from samurai showdown. on the left is the low poly and the smoothed version(only once though). I would like to do a normal map for him, but i dont know...
Also, his torso appears to be somewhat flat, front-to-back. Hoahmaru has a rather bulky torso, so maybe you should elevate some bits. Also, and this is related to the flatness: his ribcage seems very wrong, as if it's made out of muscle instead of an actual cage of bone. Just try to overlay some anatomical references onto him.
shimmer: i love this, it's the perfect merge between lowpoly (q1-esque, almost) and the new technology. Seeing all that detail crammed into such a boxy, bulky profile makes me happy
I like how his flesh seems to bunch up at his chin/jawline as well, it's really cool.
yes, i argee he is flat, i do plan to add more detail into him. Can you get me some good upper body refs? i could also use some of his back. and his torso seems too narrow, but that is due to the fact that he has no shoulders yet...
i really couldn't get you any good refs, but if you come across some concept art for him or something, send it my way!
You might want to check out the (positively terrible, or so i hear) 3d samurai shodown game for the playstation for some better views of him. I seem to remember that also LOOKED terrible though, so maybe you're better off just never having seen it, heh.
this is a character I've been working on a couple of weeks now. the mesh it pretty much done just UV mapping and textureing it now.
Never really done weapons before:
hey mightypea: i do have a ref from a samurai shodown art book(it appears) and a ref of his sword. btw, i must have like a million refs of him and a lot of other characters from street fighter and soo much other stuff !
i think a new samurai shodown game needs to be made, but up to today's limits. Just no skanky girls(ex Ivy) as there are sooo many games that have em it would just ruin it! Maybe i will make one.
got a new cintiq (most awesome invention EVAR) and using it to finaly learn ZBrush zbrush is so much funner when you can sculpt right on the model, makes it seem more "connected"
Vahl: That doesn't look like skin yet, you need to have the transition between lit and dark more saturated. For some reason the "terminator" (as they call it) is around the edge of the object instead the edge of the highlight with your shader.
since im at a house where i dont have my 3d stuff i downloaded bobo the seal brunt and textured the head while i was talking with some friends..i guess around 1 hour spent...if so..

wee
poopin about in zbrush.
And do I have a wrong understanding of anatomy or is the head a bit too long (front-back)?

Like I said put your props up. I think you'll have a hard time breaking in somewhere if you limit yourself to characters.

Looking good okkun!
The Other Side
I'm still getting the hang of things, not over defining things and whatnot. Still got lots of work to do on the torso and arms.
I'll start skining it now
Rawr, i'm angry.
here's a small update to the "meat puppet"
i just dont got it anymore

Not wanted to show it off to early since more and more will come but I couldnt resist.
Ignore the bad rig at the pelvis area.
it's a wight from the D&D 3rd edition monster manual (page 183)

That looks like something roshach would make.
Whats with the lower legs?Are they finished yet?
Great seeing all this high detail work, and FatAssasin 8)

Right now in texturing stage.
w. concept. The result came out different but at least it got me started.
Wipeeeeey
Hopefully will soon be finished

And I started this last week:
there are some amazing work in there
ok so a quick skin shader test...I'll try to work on this one in my spare time, good to get some shader stuff done, kinda relaxing...
it still needs a LOT of work (transluscence and stuff) I'd certainly need the advice of the SSS gurus 'round here
only one light, maya standard renderer, I want to keep that shader working without any plugin.
good to post something btw

Massive list almost all of the characters. Great reference shots.
