Here's a closeup of the hand. About the pose, someone in my class that wants to rig and animate it told me this pose would be best for him. Any help with the hands is appreciated. The two areas I find most difficult are faces and hands. So far I've managed to pull off a pretty decent face, so just the hands remain. :)
The body has some really nice shape/color language but the face is really killing it. Yous should set this model aside for a bit and do some head sculpt studies. I understand your shooting for a manga stylization, but unless you understand the planes and anatomy of the face from a realism standpoint, how do you expect to…
Alright, I've taken the head into Zbrush to try and salvage it. I fail at Zbrush, and at making faces, so yeah.. I know it's not great, but am I on the right path at least? Cheers!
Thank you very much for your feedback! I really appreciate it! :) Unless this update on the face looks better, I'm gonna have to redo it I think, because I just feel stuck.. I brightened up the area around his eyes, added some rose color to his cheeks and smoother that whole area out, added some blue to his chin line and…
In general I like it. Metal texture is nice on the left view and as for the right one it's maybe too grey. A wood texture has some scratches and it looks frayed but the face of your shield is quite new.
I just thought I might illustrate what i meant about the ears. All I did was darken and destaturate them a small amount to match the rest of the face's colours. They dont stick out as much now (no pun intended :poly124:).
Here's some more progress. Been working a bit on the face and basicly been all over the place tweaking stuff. I feel that I'm almost done with it. Just gotta tweak the eyes and work more on the fingers. Hope you like it so far!
