Looking awesome dude. Love the digital cammo effect :D a subtle dirt layer might be something to add. The paint work is all scratched up but its rather clean. Some dirt build up at least on the feet might be nice.
Dropped the animation for a little while, decided to try some life drawing/digital painting. Not really painted before, traced the model and then tried different methods to get the skin/tones right. Let me know what you think as always.
I also started this dude here as an enemy for Alice, but that's just a concept for now and I don't think I'm going to finish it so I put it into my digital sketchbook. decided to post it here too as they are related, wouldn't hurt anyway.
I switched from Maya to Max for work too! Again, it took me only a few nights of the same 3D buzz, and digital tutors tutorials. Its pretty straight forward and in hindsight learning both just encourages more opportunity!
Thanks Eric, but this space is so dark, and I can't possibly light a digital lite so I am not knowing where this moderator is ? Can u help? I can hardly see to navigate around -- why has it to be so dark?
Have you fully completed a beginners guide to Maya tutorial? There are plenty to choose from, and they go over a ton of stuff. I've also taken this course on Pluralsight/Digital Tutors called Professional Tips For Modelling Complex Shapes. It was really great.
Everyone tells me Lynda.com is significantly better than Digital Tutors on some subjects. Steve Nelle taught me how to use 3ds Max, and there are few parts of the program (with the exception of animation) that I haven't learned from his videos.
Thanks, If you'd like to follow the progress I'm updating daily in my digital sketchbook here: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=76906 But will post the finished one pretty soon. This thread should have more activity, it's an awesome idea.
Were sending a Card from my office for a speedy recovery, since many of you dont know him in real life//in person Perhaps we should start a digital card on here (Similar to the graffiti Wall We made before)
thats not GTA IV on xbox, is it? (by way of some mod, assumedly) oh and concerning an earlier point on the dot crap ("digital dandruff"). I've seen that so much, I think its in like every UE3 game I have here.
