Here's a phurba that I've been working on. I'm currently on the diffuse map, with a spec map and proper lighting to come. It's sitting at 4838 tris and a 2048 x 512 map. I'm not sure whether the painted or unpainted version is better, so I'd like some input on that. I also may change the color of the paint itself if it…
Thanks, guys. I'm glad to hear someone tell me what I was thinking in that the painted one looks a bit more lively than the unpainted. I edited the diffuse some and added more variation in the gold and added a spec map. I needed to get a quick presentation shot together so here it is in Marmoset now.
