/3/ - 3DCG

We have a WIP thread that's rarely, if ever, off the front page.

It's shit. Why the fuck would horns be growing past the hands?

So pectoral muscles aren't just bumps that grow off your rib cage. they're fibers that connect to you sternum and then to your shoulders. If you want big intimidating muscles you've gotta show the bulging irregular cords and how they connect. For really exaggerated muscles you can show these creases in the skin the theoretically would form from the tendons that connect the muscle to the bone being over grown.

The easiest way to make these in 3D would be to block them out in your 3d package and then add the details in zbrush as a normal map. IF you dont want to sculpt then make the topology of the muscles follow the tendons and then have the edge loops alternate in height.
Remember if it looks wrong then change it until it looks right.

Also, look at this classy dude in my picture. He's got mad deltoids on his shoulders. and crazy traps on his neck. These are the muscles of intimidation. Your guy has tiny lady shoulders, especially compared to the rest of him. A broad frame with high round shoulders is the key to an intimidating silhouette.

It looks like you're going for the "skull-for-a-face" schtick but you don't have enough detail to sell it. It looks like you just beveled grooves into a smooth oblong shape for the eyes. bones are porous and full of holes and hooks for ligaments and tendons to attach to.

not the shit part, just the horns part

having the horns grow out past the hands would prevent it from actually ever using its hands. plus, they stretch out so far if it tried to use it for hunting they would probably break. try thinking ergonomically as to why it has these parts. In nature, intimidation is mainly conveyed through color. body parts always have uses. maybe have them smaller, sharper, and thicker. they would still be intimidating, but it could still use them in shorter, swifter motions.

The hooves should also be smaller, they seem a bit thick at this point.

muscle anon already explained the muscles pretty well, but also dont forget more definition through the arms. the fingers might also look better shorter and stubbier.

From the front view, the legs seem angled out like a humans legs. it doesnt seem realistic, try making his torso much wider so that you could make the legs parallel to each other. Making the torso wider will also screw up the humanoid proportions a bit, which will also make it more monstrous.

Great start though. May have gone a little overboard with the horns on the head, but still pretty good.

Its the artistic input of the modeller. ofcourse you are too much of a bigot to appreciate it ( u_u)

>>384128

>>384185

>>384185
I see you used Sintel for that...

>>384203
>Tfw no Sintel r34

>>384208
If it doesn't exist, it can be made.

>>384208
Sintel porn inbound. There are a few hurdles to overcome first.

>>384208

>>384280
Now stop trying to blind me and I think we're getting somewhere.

>>384280
>Not naked
>No dick

3/10. That's the best I'll give you.

>>384288
I have to finish the rest of the body for her to be naked. The model only came with specific portions, so I'm having to create the rest from scratch.

I'm not giving her a dick.

>>384281
I'll re-render after I get back from lunch.

>>384298
just a heads up, /3/ is SFW. You might just get banned. I guess moot didn't want this to be a poser porn board

>>384345
Thanks but was already aware. Will post on /s/ and then crossrefrence when actually up and going.

>>384345
just say it's an anatomical reference

>>384298
Still sucks. This file that I downloaded was originally saved for an early or pre-2.5 version of blender.

>>384363

>>384364
Goddamn it. I'm having to manually connect the verticies...

>>384366

>>384371
Where's that video of Richard Stallman yelling "THIS IS HORRIBLE" and smashing a water bottle all over the crowd of huehuehues?
You might want to swap out the torso if you're too lazy to pop it into a sculpting program + retopo

>>384371
furby? is that you?

>>384372
Yeah, I'm gonna have to.

What the fucking fuck just happened????? It just undid everything that I worked for and fucked up my rigging!!!!

Fuck this shit. I'm gonna try again tomorrow when I get maya and mudbox pirated.

>>384376
My new geometry is only appearing in edit mode. WTF??

>>384376
W-What did you do to muh waifu?

;_;

>>384376
Try resetting the bone poses? Maybe you got them weighted or something. Or detach the armature.

Does sintel have morph target? (Whatever they are called in blender, I forgot)

>>384376
Tortured her.

>>384128
so horny
much edgy

Try some more menacing spikes, tho. Maybe hematite or something.

>>384130
^this

Also I was just scriblin so here you go. With or without a dick, this guy seriously needs a pelvis region. Right now his legs look like they come out of a flat bone.

>>384387
Tortured her.
