Hey All, I am new to Polycount and this is my first post. I graduated from Tribeca Flashpoint Media Arts Academy in Chicago in early June, and am now looking to enter the game industry. I love character modeling. At Tribeca Flashpoint I was introduced to all aspects of 3D and I did my best to get an understanding of them…
The module is currently character art, and I feel like i'm just about done with my blockout and thought i'd open it up to crits so i know where to go after this or if i'm making any mistakes. The character design is a proper tank of a person so he should be quite a head taller than normal, i think i aimed for 9 heads tall.…
Hi, I'm concepting this fat bull corporate character. Any thoughts on how to improve this? Currently, what's bothering me is the size of the legs. It looks okay with me but does it look smaller to you guys or a bit off compared to the torso proportion?
Thanks, guys! I looked again at the proportions because, without thinking, i was making it for a mini instead of a game character - eejit. Here's an update and a few more questions: In a high poly sculpt for games, do you just need a plane for the cloak and material? It's going to be hand painted and as low poly as i can…
Hey, good start!

This is extremely important to consider as the character will…
Those are all good points Neox raises. I think also in general you need to give more thought to your character design, how the forms interact, the relationships between them, etc. Go to a local bookstore and look through the pixar and disney character books to get an idea of what is visually pleasing. Pay attention to…

It's all very nice technically, lot of work, etc... But I still find this to be very bland looking, it's all so typical. And then those loli characters and the fat furry bears look COMPLETELY out of place with the rest of the characters. it's just bizarre. I'd have liked it a lot more if the game had only the furry fat…
Hey Folks! I wanted to create a character based within the fable universe which I spent many hours in when I was younger. I'm currently just sculpting out the basic idea using 'Tipple' concept art by the amazing Mike McCarthy as my base for a character. Any feedback, tips or critique is greatly appreciated as I'm starting…
