wow nice, I'm liking it so far. But there is some to be done still...get the geometry done first then worry about grass. But surely a hair modifier to the ground plane should be fine...and then before the fina render, bump up the hairs to a few thousand

I like the design (except the hands) but the animation is not great. Absolutely all physicality is lost after the initial roll in. Once he stops, he dies. You need to move within a pose. Overshoot. Settle. His whole body should be affected by the wave. And as for the wave itself, it looks more like he's just moving his arm up and down than waving. It should be faster, smaller, and higher energy.

Quite stiff posture, try give your work a more relaxed posture even if you model it in a stiff pose.
Like it's an actual living creature that has assumed the pose.
A interesting design you have there, very different from the run of the mill dragons one see.
I like how you've shaped this piece overall globally even if your sculpt is a bit rough locally.
With refinement of your tool handling you'll probably be a great sculptor in no time.
I really like the choice of giving it a viper type head, it looks sordid man.

tits cut into ribcage too much, fix back of teh knee, too much angled, scapula too small,, knees to narrow, lack of muscle and fat roll above just above teh knee, then the area just above that pushed way too forward, side ribs should be visible at this type of body
also her pussy seems on teh skinny side compared to the rest, add more volume to lower abs

1. I dunno what the red bit is meant to be and it looks really flat.
2. That's a very crsip line cutting the light off, maybe blur it or something.
3. It looks like the light is penetrating the metal. Light don't do dat nigga.
4. As you mentioned, very hard edges, maybe soften up the lighting so that not everything looks so crisp.
5/6. The lighting and textures on the inside look very..clinical, like there is no atmosphere in there, jsut one light shining.
7. Kind of ties in with lighting and hard edges, the text looks too clinical.

Try using normal/displacement maps.
Adjust your lighting to some realistic proportions.
Work on smoe textures brah.

>>348495
More important than megapixel is the quality of the optics and sensors. Such parameters are harder to quantify for the customer so megapixel is
driven as the no #1 sales argument. If you want a good camera you must do your research and read reviews online and look at actual images taken with the
camera on your computer screen (provided in any proper online review of such equipment).
Then when you've found the camera that does what you want for the right price, buy that camera and only that camera.
If it's out of stock locally order it, don't ever let a sales person think they know what you want, in fact never look a sales person in the eyes.
Personally I always wear sunglasses inside stores, I was actually educated into how to be a sales person ever since I despise them.

One must remember that America was founded by Europeans who feared ass and titties so much they had no choice but to flee across

Yes, and since he can see and hear everything it's pretty obv why. We all know he created man in his own image so we know he has arms long enough to reach his own cock.
If christian mythology is right God is probably the king of fapping, no surprise then that he'd come to call himself Jizzus when he chose to walk among us.

Sure - I did reuse the headlights, visor and a part of the pipe (with some minor edits) as it's pointless to remodel such parts. The whole rest is made from scratch, while I tried to stay close to the original shape. I made the grill more rounded though, as it fits better with this new "divided in upper and lower body" look.

Why are you trying to photorealistically render a low poly game object? Unless this isn't a game object, in which case you failed hard, doing a transfer map of your high to such a low poly object instead of adding supporting edges and smoothing it.

you didnt pay attention to cedircs workflow did you ?;f
He first blocks in major forms, no details, no parts, just one huge shape, works on silhouette until he likes it
then he experiments details with dam standard and mask and then goes into cutting up into parts.
Also fallowing his workflow is pointless, he sketches everything out in his head, so he can jump half the steps and still make mindblowing stuff, you should go step by step and start of with establish what you want to make and what each part is and how it works

cheers. yeah the shadows are a bit buggy as i have a few point lights which dont actually have a lightsource in the scene get the lighting right.

you should be ok with tiling themeshes so long as you have a unique UV unwrap for the lightmap channel (can be your texture unwrap if its 100% unique) and also make sure that your materials line up on either side so you dont notice a seam through the diffuse/spec channels. the offset filter in photoshop helps with that

Could go the easy route and make a thin flap running down the back, like a zip with a covering. Or perhaps you could just say the armour comes off separately, then you are left with the under-suit which is like a tank-top with a removable pelvic strap.

back of the neck too wide, it should be 2x narrower since the spine would pop out there
scapula are too close, should be wider apart makes the back look weird
ass should be rounder
add more mass to the sides of her legs at the height of her cunt, femur connection should be the widest point of the legs
shirt neck, or lower her arms
elbow placement too low
just below the tits her rib cage should be sticking out, reduce the tight gap if you dont want her too look anorexic, add more ass above butt cheeks

now face, cant tell much from those angles, but i can already see few things taht are very wrong
cheeks bones almost always are the widest part of the face, pop them out more, work on eye shape, it looks really wrong, and eyes are the most important part of the face, push forehead forward

fis those things and you will at lest get rid of teh creepy look, i could point out a lot smaller things, but focus at lest to get main forms in, get some better ref pics
good luck

I'm really not digging the random patches of paint missing all over the gun, they don't really make sense why they would have come of, there's big patches missing but not a single tiny scratch anywhere?
I know it's not your fault because it's not your design but overall it's just a really bland shit design of a gun

This is a shield which has a pigs head on the front, what would I do with the separate pieces? Find a way to connect every vertex on the head onto the shield or leave them as separate objects? Also how would the process go in order to get the normals from the high poly in mudbox? bring it into max straight or export it and use xnormal?

I think it'd look best if the redlined edges protruded a little bit, sort of like the top of a sand dune, with the lne in the center being the lowest point and the red lines the highest.

All the while the cylinder at the center flows smoothly into the outer shapes while the inner shapes stay relatively flat.

this, it should probably look more like pic related, goes more with the aesthetic and makes the most physical sense.

it could conform to the shape of the ass cheeks but on it;s it's tight, stretchy and thin but this doesn't look like it, it looks pretty thick so it would have to be cut specifically to conform to the crack which wouldn't really make sense.

I don't want to have to remap the whole thing so I just had an idea, if I upload a file with just the mesh for the object and someone could have a quick look and troubleshoot it for me? see if there is some setting on it or something.

I would appreciate it a lot because apart from the doors and windows that was the last thing I had to unwrap and I really don't feel like doing it again.

>>349672
I was going to use transparency to do some plants anyway, did you mean to have a png texture with the shape of the column coloured and the rest transparent? wouldn't you be able to just see the other textures through the sides?

this is how i meant. depending on your settings, the other side of the faces will show the texture mirrored. depends on what you imagine you're going to use the model for thought, if it's just in the background, the sticks might as well be a textured plane for the illusion of more detail and better performance. if you're gonna go up close to them though, it might be worth having the extra polys.

retopologised! Boy, that took long. Longer than the sculpting before (me feels).

I got some tris here and there but I heard that tris are not all THAT bad, so I let them be. (I heard n-gons are the evil)

>>349733
No way! I tried out both ways now and can assure you that sculpting the shape first and then retopologising afterwards is WAY better and quicker. First you can shape the model more accurately when sculpting without caring about topology and loop-flow at all, and then when retopologising you can make the loops and topology quickly without caring about the shape, which is already there. Works like a charm!

From now on this will be my final workflow (I guess)

Also thank you for the kind words.

This is supposed to be just the basemesh that I try to make animation friendly.
The plan is to reimport that mesh as a subtool into zbrush and reproject the dynamesh sculpt into it. Then sculpting the finer details and painting/texture projection. At the end I will bake the maps.

I am not happy with the topology yet. Will have to make corrections to get rid of some poly overload on her back and face.

The eyes will get more sculpting love inside zbrush.

You can shoot nails around 125-150 feet per second depending on the nail and gun type. So it's not going to be going through any skulls, but shots to the face are going to do some damage definitely. Or use as a contact weapon you could drive nails through the skull with ease.

fucking this, I've worked as a carpenter and we always used to do this and play tag in vacant buildings on breakes and such.
Nothing serious, just make sure you have your safety glasses on and stop when someones had enough.
Took one in the shoulderblade once, wife got really spooked when I got this 5cm green ring on my back but I told her it must've been a spider bite, lol.

Just started the 2nd model. He looks as if he has a tiny erection right now. Going to add more folds onto the top and fix the crotch area.
He's gonna be covered in some very large, angular armour.

>>349819
Yeah. I suck at asses. I'll have to go back and redo it and find some good references. I'm also dreading the feet and hair as well.

>>349919
Im using the default mudbox material with slight change in tone.

I'm actually having a hard time trying to get crisp edges myself. I'm just getting around with the flatten and pinch tool, but even then, I don't think the way I am doing it is very efficient. I'm doing all the armor in Maya, so its a lot cleaner. Of course, I couldn't do that on the clothes. Apparently the newer versions of mudbox allow you to draw curves on the mesh which you can sculpt across for cleaner lines, so you should probably give that a try.

>>350044
Hopefully when I add the armor on top of the male character, it wont look too similar (I hope).

wow that texture looks completely crap

it really doesn't need team-color red and blue (also why is your team coloring so washed out to begin with?). A brown/tan would be much better. The staples and ropes shouldn't be paintable. Instead, the cloth part should be. The string and staples should resemble their real-world counterparts.

If you're seriously this disinterested in making your work good, then why bother posting it to the workshop at all? If you want it to get in you really should put your skill into your submissions.

Not sure if you can do much with a 512x512 texture, but sure, I'll tinker about and see what it does. The material is supposed to be fairly plain, being cloth, so I don't see what your complaint is.

Actually modeling cylincridal ropes skyockets the polycount for no apparent reason and I'm already too high.

And apparently, valve is okay with staples instead of rops, as there are tons of items that do that.

Oh, also,
>the cloth part should be
I'd rather not. Hats that can be painted to full saturation into bizzare colors tend to look like crap.
I'd rather leave the stitches paintable so there's at least an option that doesn't make people's eyesockets burn.
