What's up guys? Some of you may not remember me but some of the people from the FPSC section should. Well, I have been away from the forums for a while practicing my modeling and whatnot but I am back with a WIP of a character my brother designed. He doesn't have a name yet but we'll come up with something. His body took me about a day of on and off modeling and I started his head last night which I will show you when it is finished.
His body weighs in at 1610 triangles. Please tell me anything that I should fix and any accesories I should add to make him unique.

nice, shoulders are a bit scary looking, maybe make them smaller.

also those double sided polys on his cloak/coat whatever could cause some problems later on.

maybe you should also model the lapels of the coat, to give them more definition? I think just leaving it to the texture could leave it looking a bit blurry

Thanks, Manic. I dont see anything wrong with the shoulders, though. I made two versions of the torso. One with the deltoid definition and one without. Here is a picture of the other version. Should I use that instead? Also, I may normal map this so I will define the coats lapels in that.

use the first one, it'll rig better. Also, put another edge loop in around the armpit and over the shoulder, It'll help it deform.

I just think that the shoulders look too muscley in the first picture, try to get it somewhere between the two pictures you uploaded, then it'll be a good flow, and reasonably anatomically accurate.

Thanks, you're right about the extra edgeloop, I just don't know how I am going to get it in there, I am using Milkshape. I will try though.

like so (although i have no idea if milkshape has a chamfer command... it should do);




EDIT: just had a look at some milkshape screenshots... I can't see a function for it anywhere sadly, maybe someone who knows milkshape better can chime in here

yeah, good work, just bring that row of verts up so you have like an arch for the armpit, and on the top of the shoulder, bring it in a little so you have more definition (see attached);

Thanks, Dared. I took a break from this to work on texturing and level design.
