The Republic, a character render




In these images is the last of the main characters, this poor kid is working both sides against the middle, thinking she has the upper hand on the Emporer who she and many others believe is exploiting the very colonies he created.

Also, the republic logo is here.

On the nose, it looks fake because it is fake ;)

These are really good, Ace. You could do some cool head-only comics with them... dialogue and everything. You'd be good at that. ;)

Yay!

Nice work on that last one. The republic symbol seems to be a little jagged, though...

the first one needs to brush his hair- joshua hondle or something? yeah. he needs better hair, and his skin is so pale... the second one, robert michaels, looks strange cos you can see his hair through a non-existant body...
On the first guy, well he has a bad haircut, that's part of his "look" his skin is also pale in this image because I exaggerated the colors a bit here and there.

I only rendered the 'headz' since I don't have a good uniform done yet, plus it takes less time to render.

I'm surprised that no one has commented yet that in a real military they wouldn't be allowed to have hair so long. Well with the first guy, he's under orders to let it grow out a bit so he looks like he's on an early retirement, with the second well he lost is wife and honestly doesn't care about how he looks anymore...


Drevi i'm basing off a friend of mine, but he'll look quite evil i suppose.

Trying not to be funny, but drevi should have slightly recessed and thin eyes, probably normally dressing in an aliens style collarless suit-type arrangement.  I know its sortof cliched but its all I can think of atm.

Dont expect anymore for about a week while I go on a drinking binge tomorrow for a mates' birthday, and finish off some other work thats becoming critical. Sowwy :(

Just as long as in the end he's not like a dog with shifty eyes ;) :Simpsons reference:

Collarless suit sounds good.

I was thinking derivative of some of the B5 costume designs maybe with more contemporary influences.

:wtf: im not a bloody tailor!  gnn...anyway, i'll have to get the actua body/head model done before I can start on that.

Physical dimensions? Probably medium height, medium build.  not bulky or thin etc.

very close cut hair (not shaved, light kind of stubble with receding hairline).

No facial hair but maybe some stubble for "cliched dramatic effect"

Well I did a few tweaks on the hair in the Snider render so it looks softer, I need to do a little more here and there.

I redid the emporer one totally with an expression not so much like Yoda and his "pipe" ;)

One of the redos I did trying to get with more what the character originally looked like wound up looking like Thunder, after being scared I decided to go back to the old man and his stubble of hair. :nod:

Well, with some good, varied lighting, and some good facial expressions (want a challenge, Ace? ;)), it could be pretty interesting... :)

Instead of starting a new topic,  I decided to post this here:


One of the Republic naval uniforms, the render here doesn't do much justice for it, and I'm tweaking the mesh still for the male one. Unisex uniform which looks identical for both of course save for some proportions. A lot of sci-fi is pretty tasteless in the uniforms/clothing (hrmmm... classic Trek...) which is something trying to be avoided here.

Influence here is a bit of FS, "greys" from the Lensman series, and a little bit from the show Enterprise. Also a great deal of a modern BDU is in here, like the pocket setup, etc. etc. though you don't get a good shot of them here so it's meant to be actually functional ;)

That's part of the shirt, I'd say. And I think it needs to be a little more formal. It's looking too... grungy (or whatever the term is) to be a military uniform, I think. But it's a nice start.

That's part of the shirt Steak :p

The only reason why it looks unkempt is because of the lighting, also I'm still tweaking the textures on it.
