Side view looks spot on, I'd make the front view a little wider just because it's an ogre and he should likely have a pretty thick jaw. Would also be cool to see some more of the neck musculature (turn it more into a bust.) Good one!
Dude, Congrats, RJ! You've been busting your @ ss on those art pieces. I'm sure you'll get something. Maybe you can brainstorm where you feel you would specialize more. I love the environments and vehicles you made.
As soon as I'm done with the car I think I will follow the advises I received here and do something small and make sure it is very well done. I thought about doing the busted sword from FF7 or maybe something dragon ball related.
Thank you both for the advice, I think I may have pushed the dynamesh too much from with I was getting the very basic bust shape to blocking in. I'll adjust it back down to around 32 and start blocking from there. this is very helpful thanks!
All I gotta say is just keep on busting ass, those who want it and fight for it will always trump those who don't... and at times it may take longer, or seem like you aren't getting anywhere, but those are the times that matter the most. Those are the times that you need to prove to yourself that you can do it, and that…
Comes down to hard work honestly. I busted my ass off the last year of school because I knew only a handful in my class would get jobs. I ended up landing an associate position at THQ in SanDiego a few weeks before I graduated. Was layed off a year later. Busted my ass off again on the old portfolio. Got picked up at Raven…
I agree that maybe you should just do the bust. The legs/feet and arms/hands are really letting down at the moment, the proportions dont seem right, close but not right. the hands in particular seem really small. And as BrianP said, without the concept of the arms and lower body your going to be guessing that area and it…
Oskar!: Thanks heaps! The eyes have a secondary layer for accurate shine. marcobar: Thank you so much! It's nice to hear that sometimes, y'know. I hope I can only continue to get better in the future! ilsem: I'm happy you like them, they're the ones that are just sort of relaxing for me to do so it's nice to hear they're…
So I worked on the bust more and did the base mesh and baked down but i havent got round to tidying it atm, I still need to add hair to the bust also one problem people might be able to help with, I mirrored my UV's and im using the offset feature within max to project the other side but iv ran into a snag, at the neck…
ziikutv >>> That's fine I'm stocked about that project as well :) Wood dowels are something I really like about furnitures or carpentry because it give an artisannal and organic feeling to things. I apply it here like if the statue was not made in one piece, head, bust, arms and legs are separates. The jonction between…
