Afro Samurai - Jinnosuke
polycounter lvl 18
This was supposed to go into the low poly thread...but look at all those polys. 
Character without swords is at 1010 tris.
Could be optimized a bit more but this was mainly a quick doodle i threw together in a few hours.

Jino is one of the people Afro encounters on his way to the no.1 headband, among other things.
the geta (shoes) are very deep, as mentioned.
I think he appears in the 3rd or 4th episode.
The shoes are very deep.
I got the impression they were solid iron or stone or something, because they make a very "heavy" sound when he´s walking or stomping.
He´s probably wearing them for training.
Are his hands made with planes?
Even though, your ref shows such huge foot block things, i would still make em a tad smaller. Most people who have seen the show, and those who hadn't, wont notice, and be left wondering why there so big. Keep it up!
Only crit that I can think of is that maybe the head is a weeny tiny smidgen too small? I don't have a ref to hand, but I remember the head being bigger for some reason.
Oh pedobear, he haunts every corner of the interweb. That just made me crack up.
Anyway, this is a great model, love to see where it goes from here. As SariusMonk mentioned tho, are the hands just flat planes? Just curious
awesome work slaught!
I like Afro Samurai, which is weird, cause I HATE hiphop, and anime, but what they did with the series, and movie was very interesting. And you've nailed the character so far. I wish I could give you a crit, to keep this posts ass-kissery to a minimum, but I can't see anything to crit, hoenstly. Great work, give updates.
but I dont see why you would still be using those plane fingers on a character thats over 1000 tris .. without proper hands even
when you get around that kind of polycount, I'd rather see a box hand or a hand with one finger and a thumb, or maybe go wild and crazy nextgen xbox360 motherfucker and give him 3sided cylinder fingers..
its a great character, and this time even I could see myself skinning the shoulders ..
but those plane fingers just scream laziness and kill the whole piece for me ..
but, it was a doodle, so its all good eh!
Wtf is this?
This isn´t blind praise...you´re doing it wrong!
No seriously, thanks for the crits.
I had PSP specs in mind when I did this.
The PSP screen isn´t very big so I thought it probably would look okay in a fighting game or whatever.
You´re probably right tho...I will improve this a bit more.
The top and bottom of the hand connect at the base of the fingers.
The fingers are planes.
Here´s what they look like:
are you planning on texturing him?! hope so!
dont get me wrong, I am just as much of a sick twisted fan as the rest of the bunch. I mean, we all touch ourselves to your work and have a doll made in your image which we dip in honey and gently smother our butt cheeks with ... its fabulous daaarling(insert gay voice there)

Jinnosuke's a great character, instant recognizable mesh.
