WIP Low Poly Male Base Body

macaswell · Oct 2006

So i was hoping to get some feedback on this base model I am trying to do. I'm pretty new to modeling and I hardly ever do characters (I'm more of a level/game designer).

Any and all feedback would be awesome, I'm just looking to make a base model I can keep reusing. If it sucks just tell me, I'm looking to get better!

you got some 5 or more sided poly's in the edge loops around the ears that need to be fixed. good start.

Longer foot...on average, it should be roughly the same length as the forearm.

Elbows should line up with navel, currently looks like they match the ribcage.

Thumb is too thin in front view.

Are you using reference? really helps for proper proportions.

Someone claim ownership of this:

It's a superb base mesh.

yeah i'm using a reference but its not very good. Does anyone know where i can find a perfect anatomy reference i can model with?

And yes that model is amazing...i'll be refering to that a lot! thanks! (do you know the poly count on it?)

Macaswell - check out posts by Jelmer Boskma here, he spent a long time developing a good base mesh (with lots of input from wise old heads in here).

Yeah, Rick that's an awesome mesh - I have these to add:

..but sadly didn't note the author's name (I usually put this stuff in a folder named for the author/originator).
