Dominance War II - PyroQ

PyroQ · Feb 2007

most recent state:

Hello!
Looks like there are incredibly talented people taking part in this competition. I myself have only recently began studying 3d, this fall but heck I'll do this just for the fun of it.

Anyways. Let me introduce Carnis Scissum:
His enormous body size decieves a fools eye whilst his actions are fast, precise and of insane power. He will approach you slowly. Like a mountain would move a shadow and yet if you miss a glimpse he's already there. He sees or hears not but he feels your presence and knows your every move for his eyes have trapped inside thousand spirits that show both past and the future.

Concept:

and...
I've modelled most of the base structure early this week. Yesterday I put together current uvwmaps so now I can start texturing

ryuju · Feb 2007

it would be nice to see some wires so we can see the mesh flow. looks like you have a few stretching problems on the foot and inside leg near the knee, maybe you could tryto correct that a little but it looks like they wont be that big of a problem since they are pretty hidden.

PyroQ · Feb 2007

There's some stretching but not much. There will be a pile of chains going around both legs as a texture so minor stretching doesn't matter. But I'll just have to see when I texture those legs if I need to fix anything.

some wires:

1220 polys

minor update:

need more...coffee

I've been thinking about the weaponry. Blunt weapons would suit him well but on the other hand he also cuts according to the name. So perhaps I'll make a long combination staff with a blade on the other end and a hammer on the other.

evening Edit:
Pleasant surprise for myself, I managed to draw quite alot today:

PyroQ · Mar 2007

textures pretty much done for the torso

I'm going to start cutting more polygons. I think 3000 would be quite too much for this but I guess that's the games nowadays. My mind is still stuck somewehere around half-life 1

hehe ... a little more blood and dirt scattered around and your character is good for painkiller game:) ...

His limbs are looking very tube like. Give him some deltoids (shoulder muscle) and some indication of a groin region. The area where the knee is should also be narrower, like in the concept.

Xaltar · Mar 2007

Great to see you're still here. Well, seeing as you seem to be almost done with this guy have a look at some tutos like this one and see what you can do to improve on your mesh

Your textures are looking really cool by the way.

Keep it up

Hey thanks.
Very useful points Jaco. I've been staring at this model too long to even see these things myself. Definitely needs more shapes

this is what I've been doing today:

PyroQ · Mar 2007

Well he actually has thumbs now and adjusted shapes

personally I think it already looks ten times better just because of the thumbs

PyroQ · Mar 2007

Here it is, the final version. I posted finals today. There's one more week left but as for me I wouldn't have had time to work on it and well it's the best I can do with my current skill level.
I haven't studied bone rigging yet but managed to build some thanks to max tutorials

So there, the first completed character model I've ever made
