Title: WIP-Warrior

This is a Work-In-Progress pic for a high-fantasy fighter/warrior type. Pretty much I'm slowly but surely adding to it, tweaking armor parts, etc.

nice, but the spikes around the breats plates kindda get in the path of the arms... a single sword swing, and the only people she'll hurt is herself.

I don't know why, but there seems to be something wrong with the belt....

I could use a few hi-res textures like hair

It's a WIP, we're supposed to critique it. It IS an art forum, after all.

The breast armor I think I'll keep since it has sort of a Planescape feel... The neckarmor I'm still tweaking, the lighting in this quick render makes it look flat, and so I'm still working on that. Also the loincloth has been given an overhaul.

Despite the small things I mentioned, I'm actually pleased with how this one turned out.

Very good work, I love the fantasy feel of it. I will say one thing though - somehow I think she should have heavier thigh/back/stomach protection. The mail she has isn't just skin-hugging but looks like it could be easy enough to slice in two :)

Very good, and if it's still a WIP, I can only say that keep up the good work. :yes2::nod::yes:
 
And you seem to be the only one who does lots of those renders with a human in it, and it's always good to have artists with different renders. :yes:
 
And now even the face looks pretty good. :)

The trick I found with the faces is the expression. It turns out that all of the renders before shape wise and texture wise are anatomically correct... for a corpse...

With a tiny bit of expression added (narrowing eyes, a little snarl, or whatnot) then the "correct face" looks more realistic, while before the people looked fake because no one has an expression that deadpan.

I've done a little more work on it, I've added a new texture as well as working on some leg/thigh armor.

Getting better and better... :yes2::nod::yes:
 
The part over breasts is a big improvement over previous versions, and legs, though they already looked good, and belt. :)
 
Looks pretty realistic. :yes:

them spikes on them breastplates hinders alot of her movment, not only does the spikes prevent to move arms aswell as the shoulderplates... the spikes also risks cettign caught in the chainmail on them arms... otherwise excellent details

Ace, the Posermaster :D

Very good job, and extremely good job finding the way to make the faces look better :nod:

Also the hair looks warriorish too...

but I must agree that the spikes on the breastplate doesn't really suit into the picture. And this coming from a person who likes anime quite much :D the spikes in anime characters armors are usually elsewhere though... eh, whatever... nevermind, I got distracted

hmm... what colour you used in the light... it looks like the face is a bit green :wtf:
And how about a bigger sword :D

Doh..dont have a decent image, oh well.

Can't see much but it was modelled from scratch in 2 weeks for a uni project...the coridoor you've all seen before, i think.

The weird face tattoo is because i forgot to remove another model "underneath" that one.

Post by: Nico on June 08, 2002, 05:24:15 pm
is that a character model pimp now? yeah, gonna post mine monday then ^_^

edit: forgoy to comment the druid: I think some wild animals' pelts would look great on her, it's... mmh... appropriate for a druid.
Man I would like to be able to do so, I'd bring some of my own characters alike, can already see Lachdanan in 3D ^_^

I tried to start modeling a character with C4D again few days ago (I've done some in school) but I ended up screwing up the model. Let's see if I can fix it or not :doubt:

The Druid... ehh... how would I say... she is quite attractive. How about adding some more clothing on her though (and some animals as Venom suggested), not that it really bothers me :D
But still...

I always thought druids were suposed to have long white beards (har har har!!)

Either way..

I actually rendered him out.  He's got black skin because thats the airtight part of the EVA suit he's wearing.  As you also noticed, the armour was a rush job and sucks.

Actually the whole thing sucks...I don't even know why I posted it up :p

Very manga style proportions and hair.

Is he going in an animation?

It goes a little weird around the crotch area but apart from that the mesh looks tight :)
Title: WIP-Warrior
Post by: Nico on June 11, 2002, 10:34:39 am
yeah, I'm aimi,g at anime style.
the arms are now thinner, and the crotch area definitively needs more work. Other than that i'm pretty pleased with the result. As for animating it... there's no plan for that yet.
