Hi, Could anyone help me.

I only did Low-Poly things so far, and this is my first High-Poly thing. So I don't know I did this right. He has.. 54,000 Tris.Poly.

Can a model with that many polygons used for something other than just images? Can I make animation clip with this character eventho he has so many polygans?

I also kept a low-poly version of him so I can use "Normal Mapping". But when I do "Normal Mapping" thing, it works if I see it in "High Quality View" in perspective windo, but when I render it, it looks funny... Help Plz.

Thx u

Can someone tell me what is wrong w/ his upper leg? And his butt somehow make him look like an old man-baby...

Looks good, I really like the face.

As for the Normal Mapping thing, I think it might have something to do with the fact that normal mapping is made for realtime rendering, but I haven't played around with it myself yet, so I don't know if it renders the same way when you render normally.

The butt looks like it needs an edgeloop or two to make a crease under the cheeks, but it would be easier to tell if you post a wire.

And of course it can be used for animation, it just takes a little longer to render :) If you plan on animating him, it might be a good idea to keep the lowpoly and use that for the animating and then attack the smoothed mesh once the animation is all set up and ready to render

i can not seem to figure out how to show wireframe in render... If i just take screenshot, i can't really see wireframe because it has 54,000 tris.poly.

does anyone know how i can render this showing wireframe? I didn't UV map this yet

Should I have actually done this in Sub-Division???

Just take a screenshot of the lowpoly, assuming that there hasn't been changed anything between the two models other than applying the smooth

This is the low-poly one. Wirefram

Nice facial features and detail :)

I agree with blomkaal about the but, it just needs an impression to sort it out. Is the guy a caricature or cartoony as his thighs seem quite short?

almost done, need veins and tattoo. I am going to make Cupid out of him.... wearing a diper and holding a bow with heart arrows.....

I always envisioned cupid being a little shorter with blonde hair.;)

yes, hence this will be a nasty cupid.. with tattoo and stuff. Maybe some stretch marks on him too.

um, less bump in the in-between-leg area, please, lol

I like how the textures are turning out and I don't see anything wrong.

i gave him little scars on face. i eventually want to make a very freaky looking cupid or a Roman evocati legion soldier guy.

i painted color/bump/specularity... painting individual wrinkles one by one took long. hopefully, body won't have too many wrinkles...

to be fixed:
- bump/spec map to entire body; same amount of details as face
- vein color details, on inside of elbows, back of knee
- get rid of horizontal stretching on nose
- add teeth, eyelashes, eyebrows
- continue work with same detail from head to toe
- add lighting at end
