I have to say I'm really liking that style you got for that character man, I can't wait to see him textured and ready to go! Although a wireframe would be nice.

Please excuse the tri's, The .MAX was corrupted so i had to import the recent .OBJ export and it seems to have added some tri's :S

Well, Easter holiday! 2 Weeks off of school! Gonna start UV mapping Takeo's body, Arms and Legs now!

Ok, you need to change the renderer to mental ray.

Then you need to open up the material browser and change the material from standard to composite.

Next you select slot one and set the diffuse to black, and apply wire mode.

Apply to your model.

Create a skylight, and then enable Indirect Illumination.

Thanks, I'm not very good at high poly work, I'm the opposite to most people, My low polys look better than the high polys!

Thanks! I decided to hold back on Takeo as after the .max got corrupted the .obj put a load of tri's in the head. I will come back to takeo, I also want to get some other stuff done to (Seems like i've done organic modeling for months )

Quote: "texture is a bit blue-ish for my taste.. but it does look good for sure^^ keep it up"

Yea, I had the adjustment layer at 30%, I've already turned it down. I'll put up a render later!

Forgot to say, He's going to have a head band under his hair (Slightly showing).

Anyway, Anyone know how to show the track bar? I hid it before but can't remember how

Will round the boxy bit's soon!
Does anyone think that when this is finished and baked down to a low poly (It's 2,901 Polys at the moment) anyone would buy it? And how much for?

Could someone please post? I know I sound a little desperate but i work really hard on these models and get no or little C&C :\

Lookin good. The only thing I'm wondering about is the grip, specifically the front of it. Now I'm not a specialist on guns, but a quick look through google images and I didn't see a sawtooth looking grip on the front of it, only on the sides. The images I saw had a smooth texture on that front part.
-like this


Could just be the light, but that's what I'm seein.
if that's what your goin for, then it looks good.

Hope you know what I'm talkin about.

Oh, surprised i didnt realise earlier, the rails need to be spaced out more, very hard to attach something with those gaps, and rails dont just extrude up, they narrow at the top. You should see that they look like this : http://pix.pixagogo.com/S5xJcYevc-xOXgRicmOKBEigWGa-F2g!rhbUo-1jepl7wo2hvRn15Js7jSraBbZCplEqCjmUm4s8riw!T8orwq!LJHq7Ci1oiRszlp1XoxJqTPuESZy91!!3FTltv7uYkS/4211665776_180b63bb0b_o.jpg

Apologies, but there should be gaps in between each rail piece, as this is where the scopes etc stick on to. Also, they dont usually have that extra bevel at the bottom, from what i recall it is only a single bevelled piece.

It loos alright, but are you going for stylized, because the top of the torso looks a little big compared to the lower-stomach area. Wire??

Well that all depends on whether they will be textured or not. You can use images from texture websites (not google) or reference sites such as 3d.sk or you can paint your textures, there are a few hand painted texturing tutorials on polycount and there are some texturing tuts in the polycount 2d wiki.

its interesting but why make low poly models in zbrush, its designed for high poly work, you should make a modle with 800,000 - 1,000,000 polies and above then decimate it down, it looks nice though

Lol, It started with a low poly sphere, The high poly model was just under 1 million. I then switched to a low sudivision (Just under 1,000 polys) then baked a normal. I don't understand why anyone would make a low poly model in z-brush too Thanks!
