Character: Work In Progress: Guy

Submitted by inglis on

hey all, another character wip thread [8D]
spent a couple days on this falla so far- first character i have done that isnt bulging with muscles.

he's a bit stylised, and i dont have any reference for guys with manboobs+gut so dont give me *too* much grief about his anatomy :)
comments/insults/advice all welcome. [:)]

proportion is in the eye of the beholder, look at cartoons do you think anybody questions bugs bunny anymore?
you know he doesnt realy look like rabbit.
i think he looks great, but when i model my high poly characters i model the mouth open so i can put the teeth and tounge in and when i lip synch i dont get pulling or stretching.

Nicely done Inglis, you really do have a good eye for detail.
I especially like the sternum. Maybe the nipples should hang toward the edge of his torso more instead of straight down but that is probably determined more by how wirey or flabby his actual muscles are.
Are you doing the sumea challenge? Love to see some more of your low poly work.

shiptu_shaboo: yeah your right about the mouth. i adjust that if im going to animate the mouth.

malus: thanks- your probably right about the nipples. ill play around with them [:p]. dont know about the sumea challenge :) im pretty loaded up as it is. i might jump in and try my hand at some lowpoly- its been a while.

thanks guys-keep the crits coming :)

Only if you can get that hair plugin working again and give him the hairy chest such a neck chain deserves.
