[Raull]

[Cyrius]

[Witchy]

Nice stuff!

[Blinn]

Hey Kurt, i love your 2d drawing style (your concept drawing), it's great. Did you always draw like that or did you pick that style up at Nascad?

[Kurt]

Umm, my cartoon style always been like that..... But I do draw and paint realistic as well... My webpage has some examples of both my styles comic and real...

[Blinn]

Checked out your site, nice stuff man, very nice.

[Witchy]

Great texture!

[Witchy]

I like that a lot but I liked the werewolf effect hair as well- had a more evil look. How can you produce two things that are that cool!!

[Kurt]

I just made the flame look in photoshop.... Used the same file just played wiht the colour...

[M]

Hoh, really really nice kurt! You and mike will be having a low poly battle :D. BTW, welcome back to the challenges forum bud! Cant wait to see this form.

[strarup]

Hi Kurt,

it is looking great... :)

btw. if you e.g. would use particles for let's say some "fire" hair... would it then effect the polycount... or would they count seperate from the figure... so the figure would contain the low polycount?

regards

Strarup

[Kurt]

Thanks guy's...M mike is a lot better than I at low poly.....

[M]

All i can tell you kurt, is both you and mike are much better at low poly than me! And that will stay the same way for a lot of time to come.. lol. I dont even know how to make a model out of tri's, it confuses me on how someone could extrude and have triangles :P... anyways, its a mystery to me.. heh. Keep it up :D.

[Kurt]

Its not that hard mate... just work in quads ate first then convert to tris.

[Pony]

Looks really good. I love the painted afect

[Witchy]

Nice touches- the texture detail is really nice. Does he need some pupils or darker colour in his eyes do you think?

[Pony]

gooing really good,

[Kurt]

Thanks everyone!!!!!!!!!!


Just a small update. Been playing with his collar

[Kurt]

Was playing around and added wings.....

[mtmckinley]

I think one thing that might help the texture a lot is to show some sort of texture (as in surfacing) to the figure... like cloth, rock, etc. Right now it just seems to be colors.

Coming along good!

[M]

Wow, i love the model itself.. its great! I think what you have so far as a texture is great, just yea.. like mike said, you need to add something else. I think having exact black for his robe colors and stuff is just, well.... unrealistic? If you made it a dark grey, then added holes, twines, dust marks... it could make a huge difference. I love the collar though :D... great idea, reminds me of Unreal Tournament

[Kurt]

Thanks guy for the comments...I added some noise, and a bit more textures....

Almost done.. time to move on to a new project.....

Final Poly Count is 1050......

[Kurt]

=)

[Kurt]

[mumbojumbo_13]

[Kevin]

looks great hey! just goes to show mate that if you have the skills you can really cut down on the polys!!

awesome kurt

[Kurt]

maps

[Kurt]

body map

[mtmckinley]

cool stuff. :) I think you could combine those two maps to be just one.

[Kurt]

Yeah but the web page i read said for unreal that they have 2 mapps 1 for changing team colour and the other for the face..

[Vectorman]

Looks great man, you said "final poly count" and "time for a new project" are you done? Final render and all that?

[mumbojumbo_13]

wow sweet
--
kev i think you should ask mike or kurt to make a low poly video tut :D

[gerry]

I was wondering where this was going, now I see. Impressive low poly model.

[Kurt]

Thanks gerry.... He was fun to do... I usally do high res modeling...

[deadhand]

[Kurt]

Thanks Mate...
