Well done!

Looking good man!

kazama 30-04-2007 01:27 AM

thanks for the comments. The toon effect is a NPRS I donwloaded some time ago, but the NPRS was wrong, it was missing something, and with a friend of my we make it work.. then I start working with that and experimented and end up with a better result than the original shader.

looking good so far kazama

I've just skimmed through the thread so if other people have said any of these things then ignore me ;)

- The breast armour area looks quite artifical and doesn't flow that well around the breast area. I think playing with the point position and under the cup area might help.
- The thighs are a little chunky for someone of her stature, especially in the manga style.
- The hand looked a bit flat but a bit of tweaking should sort that out

Keep it up :)

underwear (BACK)

younglion 21-05-2007 06:23 AM

been a while since i seen this thread. the model is coming along nicely.

arran 21-05-2007 07:48 AM

yeah - not bad - this is looking very nice. However, one thing that's bugging me - what good is armour if she has so much exposed skin? :confused: not that I'm complaining - i'm sure she has some sort of body shield! :D also - i think you might need to work on how her underwear follows the contour of her hips - at the moment it's looking a little flat.

kazama 21-05-2007 04:35 PM

thanks.. Yeah Im going to work on that underwear ARRAN, and make it follow a little better.. For the thing about the armor and to much skin exposed.. the thing is that i want the character to look more sexy.. The armor is in the same place as before.. I havent change it that much.. The only thing I do was. instead of have a 1peice suit, I make it 2 piece.. But Im thinking of some how to make the side of the body, the side of the stomach a little bit more cover.. maybe connect the stomach armor with the short and the other piece, and connect it in the back as well, and make it 1 peice again, and in the side leave just leave some parts where the skin is visible.. I hope I make my point..

Just starting to work on the shaders and textures..

MattTheMan 29-05-2007 07:52 PM

It looks really nice!

The only thing I can comment on is the armour on the breasts... the hard surface model doesn't seem so hard surfaced. I think you should make some of the plates come together at a harder angle, less smooth.

I hope you get what I mean :D.

Thanks MattTheMan, I'm going to look into that.. For now, Some update on the textures.. I start taking the uvs, and donwloaded a couple of CAMO textures, in various colors and FLAVORS.. jujuju... and use the blue camo to make this little test. I like how it looks in red suit, maybe I'm going to use some red camo texture.. But is good to have it in various colors so I can change it to see how it looks in diferent colors.

And i also.. think maybe the metalic parts, making them not that metalic, maybe some futuristic material.. something maybe a little transparent, like some x-ray shader or something.. here I just aplied a sampler info and a blend color to the transparency, more to be done.. just testing some stuff..

Rhetoric Camel 29-05-2007 11:37 PM

I just went through all of this, dont know how I missed it, it looks great and come along very nicely. I'm liking the newer style with just the sides visible, it was almost TOO sexy for her type of character I think, but now it's looking much better! Keep it up! Are you planning on rigging and animating this character? If so I'm looking forward to it.

kazama 30-05-2007 12:35 PM

Thank you for your commets Rhetoric Camel, It really makes me feel like I'm doing a really good character, and that is what I'm aiming for. And yes I want to animate the character.. And I allready make some bones and IK's.. some set driven keys in the hand, and the fingers.. but not rigg yet. If someone has a good idea of what type of color or texture I can put in her clothes.. feel free to say it..

xmikx 30-05-2007 01:52 PM

its a really good charater, no doubt about it :)

i would stay with the blueish color, looks pretty cool in my opinion.

cheers

Some work Im doing with the armor.. I change the colors againg.. and some bump..

plaski 15-06-2007 01:25 PM

F-ing sweet! The new armor look doesn't look futuristic, but its totally awesome for a ninja princess theme. Its hard coming up with something new.
why not make the armor toon shaded as well?

leonlabyk 15-06-2007 02:13 PM

This project is really coming along well. Keep up the fantastic work.

kazama 15-06-2007 11:00 PM

I dont want to make the armor toon.. I just want the skin of the character to be toon, and the hair. But the armor realistic, and the enviroments that I plan to do some day realistic as well. I think the combinations is going to look good.

s2-speedy 16-06-2007 06:49 AM

this is lookin great - deffinetly reminds me of appleseed wen i first saw it and the cell shade i fort appleseed. :) i luv that film and the style of it too. i was goin 2 model a character after i saw the film.

well done.

THX1138 17-06-2007 09:00 PM
