I Like that sword

The tip needs to be more pointy or sharper.
and just add some greyish detail onto the grip Cuz plain black looks wierd xD

Other than that I think it's Epic ^_^

My Goals:

-Becoming A Pro 3D Modeler For Games Or Movies And Video Editting

Thanks^^

This is what iam workin on atm

Yes, iam following a tutorial, but man the stuff iam learning. the tutorial is about 6 hours long (http://cg.tutsplus.com/tutorials/autodesk-3ds-max/model-a-high-poly-rpg-rocket-launcher-in-3ds-max-day-1/) but it is awesome. planning on trying on a bake laters^^ possibly, if i can manage to do a lowpoly.

Polycount: 298 901

took a long brake from the RPG, hmm should get back to it.
anyhow here is a 3ds max organic modelling test and a cleanup/sculptwip stage in sculptris. not a good sculptor so so far it has mostly been a cleanup.
(and yes i used the reference picture from a random tutorial on the internet, didnt follow it to make him though.)

I disagree. Texturing is fun when you see it all come together. But the process is a pain. I consider UVmapping and texturing multiple times harder then modeling. I probably have a handful of hand textured models. Other then that its just a bunch of models, which do me no good.

no way bro, texturing is my favorite process besides high poly modeling, it be awesome, and good work quik, but i think you can spare some polies to add a bit to the shilloete cuz curently its extremely rigid

Bat is done, just gunna UVmap it *started uvmapping already* and texture it
Board is done *basicly, its just a plain extruded inwards and a texture + specular on it*

early stage of the board texture:

finished board:

board wire:

edit: new picture with the "ADVERTIZING" text on.

board texture and spec:
spec, original size 2048
diffuse, original size 2048

bat model:
polycount: 416
bat wire:

small update of the baseball bat:



but has a specular and a normal map now, normal map isnt optimal as it is just black and white, which i know isnt great, might just be temporal lol.
Looks quiet neit imo

Your models looks cool . Don't you mind releasing some character template ? ( Since i suck at modeling, at it could be a good use for me to learn something from it )

the black and white map looks like its working well enough, but you need some more detail in the diffues, like less saturated areas, darker areas, things like that.

alright, so i though: "man, i really really need to get back into organic modelling.."

soo, i tried sculptris again, but it lags as heck on my laptop at around 30k polies, so that aint gunna cut it.
So i downloaded the Zbrush trial, and here is what i made today, a chest bust:
also, you will notice a change of materials in the third image.. ^^





and here I am now:


So yeah, Mazz426, I long for your critics here <3

Well it looks to me like you have many of the fundamentals down, the main focus now should probably be finding decent references as much of your anatomy is out.

A tip that I have is when working on lower subdivisions, which you are doing which is good, you should be trying to add as much form with each level, not neccessarily detail, details comes after you have the form in place which is what you are lacking in some areas. You can easily do this by used just the standard brush with a fine tip, in order to create the valleys and the move brush to simply shift everything into place, this will make your subsequent levels easier to work with and will in turn improve the overall quality of the final model.

I think part ofyour issue is that you are subdividing before you have the required forms in place, however that can be easily fixed simply by spending more time on each level and doing what I mentioned above, if I were you I'd hop onto google and grab a whole load of muscle charts, worry about putting skin over it once you have a knowledge of muscle placement and proportions.

Hope this helped.

So the master came and commented afterall Thank you for your comment

Yes, I probably need to look at some references, rather than working out of my free mind, might be a plan. I'll grab some references when i get home x)
Ohand I did some sculpting in the lower resolutions, and I can tell too, that i should have done more in them before moving into the 4th and 5th subdivision >_<'

Last update for the chest sculpt now:
pretty darn happy with the outcome.

little bit more goofy, but it seems mostly anatomically correct?
just working on the eyes now, trying to make it less femaly and more defined. then comes the horrid ears D': i hate making ears...

The ears are way too high, the top of the ear should line up with the eyes, and if you look at someone with no hair straight on, you'll see that you cant see any portion of their head behind them, it's as though your ears are embedded into the head, they should be more... place onto the head than anything else.

Once again however, the head is the most difficult thing to do, and almost impossible to do from memory without a lot of practice, get some more references, just google head references, you'll find a lot of good ones and something that you may not have thought of that makes great references are mug shots. The eyes should be half way down your head, the nose is half way from the eyes to the chin and the mouth should be 2/3 from the chin from that. A proportions diagram will provide a quick and visual answer to what I'm describing.

oookay, i recently got an request from someone on moddb to make a table for the resident evil mod for half life 2 that he is working on, and iam done with it, poly count is 1330 (quads) which he is fine with, however if possible i would like to reduce it, the wire is messy as heck but i cant seem to be able to reduce it anymore (if anyone can give me a tip on that please do! ^_^)

anyway, here we goes:

Try to reduce it. Source Engine is powerful, but if the furniture is already having more polygons than some of my levels, things might start to get fishy.

Nevermind the polycount. It looks freaking brilliant.

You character/organic material looks pretty dang nice aswell. Much better than I could do for sure

Keep it up Quik!

double post FTW!!!!
here comes "Uncle Evert", made him this morning, pretty happy with him, right now iam limited to 1,5mil polygons, which is less of a joy heh, but it works alright, just the skin and such could use higher res^_^ less happy with the ears! >__>' but the rest iam pretty fine with.


also, i cannot seem to be able to add stuff via subtools? may be because i started with a regular sphere? but adding more spheres would be practical, any help on that point?

if you mean how i sculpt with just using a regular sphere?

well, i drop it to the lowest subdiv, then i use the move tool to move the sphere into an eggish shape, with a small neck, i also start marking out the eyes, mouth and cheek bones, then i just go from there^^

if you on the other hand would mean how i made the eyes without individual spheres, then i can say this time i was lucky it worked at all, i made a small hole, then i moved out some polies to represent the eyelids, then i used the claybrush and sculpted into the hole to make the eye. I did use the same process on my first sculpt here^^

@Quik I was looking into it. Well, judging from your talent I would suggest picking up some actual clay and trying it out? I guess you are a natural talent

i like that latest head render a lot man. it has a really well put together cartoon-styled feel about it. Now if you are going for realism, the ears and the jaw need some work but otherwise, i wouldn't change a thing.

Right so the table is now, IN GAME (wiie) its attached picture due to gore (zombies) ^^


AND NOW for my personal project: an American lever action rifle model 1895G 45/70cal, it's lowpoly 989quads atm... anyway before a mod comes in here: I DONT KNOW WHAT THE SIZES OF THE IMAGES ARE YET, IF THEYRE OVER 1200X800 I'LL RESIZE THEM, DON'T WORRY

model time about 3 hours... and the sight doesnt quite look right, will need to rewise it a bit...
here comes a bit of a wip progress:









fairly happy so far also iam thinking of starting a 3d blog, could be fun.. but iam worried i might not be bothered enough to update it regurarily >_>'

edit: yes I do realise it's too big, will fix that soon (in a few hours)
