Here's a new project I'm working on. I want to try to show the progress in a thread here, I'm still not sure how this site works. Here is how my model look now. The hi-poly is of the character is mainly done. Translating a 2d concept to 3d is a challenge, I changed the face and proportions a lot since I started, and I'm…
So I'm taking a shot at doing a ottergirl based on one of my gf's character designs. I'm hoping to get this to a reasonable point and surprise her with it. Also, I'm awful at characters but what the hell, practice practice! :P Most of her drawings of the character are kinda cute atm. She had some really good concepts drawn…

Hey, if you don't know me already, I'm an environment artist looking for some sort of fun side project that isn't an overly ambitious multi-year project or a commercial game that's just looking for free art. Here's my 2 year old portfolio link I've worked on various mods and whatnot since '98 so I've had enough experience…
I've been working on this project for a couple days now, trying to create something that would be impressive for a portfolio in environment art. I decided to make a dock/ pier with a bunch of stylized storefronts with glowing neon signs at night. I had this original idea to do this with a star wars bounty hunter feel, like…
When I saw this contest, I knew there was only one choice I could possibly make: I'm a bit daunted by all that fur, but hey - might as well dive in and learn! -edit - Here's the in-game model/skin: Concept sketch for gear, details, etc.: Lorewise, Alistar's tribe of minotaur were massacred by the forces of [/URL]Noxus, a…
Creator + Hello people! I want to introduce a tool - Creator + What's this? Custom panel for Photoshop. Made for personal convenience, and based on the needs of the 3d artist. What can she do? Zmask Creator - Creates a small alpha to help work with the texture in Zbrush Bump Creator - Creates a base to generate normals of…
A quick look in the 3D Pimping and Previews and you'll see not one artist is the same. Whether it's people who make their textures "hand painted", some who strive for stylized fantasy or those going for realism. But I want to know what "standards" do you strive for when making art. What is it about your art pieces that…
I'm attempting another modelling challenge run by the folks over at 3dmodels, This time I'm doing a vehicle inspired by Syd Mead's sentinel 400. I'll admit I'm running short on time with this challenge, as life keeps getting in the way. But I'll see how far I can get before the Dec 4th deadline. I'm still blocking out the…
Hey all! Sorry for jumping into this challenge so late, I'm a new user to Poly Count and wanted to give it a go! I mostly specialize in modeling, so for this challenge, I chose to create the potion bottle. I normally don't create stylized work, so this is going to be a challenge for me indeed! I started out in Maya to do…
