<-- shudders ... now that looks awesome.

By the way K. are you aiming for photorealism? or Final fantasy´s so called "hyperrealism"?
I say so since the eyes look kinda unreal to me ... however as you quite pointed somewhere around this thread .. better wait for the whole picture.

I'm not sure where am I aiming at. Just pointing and shooting :p Seriously, I've never been good at shading and texturing. Let's consider this as an excercise :)

Preliminary textures. Still lot's to do. Especially the speculars and bumps are just quick ones...

Looks GREAT so far!

Whoa! .. That´s looking awesome so far ...!

Only thing I feel a bit akward is the earlobes (¿?) ... common denominator is they´re a bit separated .. not fused with the head ... don´t know if you get my point.

I see your point, thanks! But there are different types of ears :). This is the one I'm after:

Btw, the model above isn't final. The ears in general needs some more tweaking. I think they're too thin...I just wanted to jump out from modeling for a while and do some UV layout and texturing for a change :).

I decided to remake the texturing:

That's how far I got until I realized that the UV layout needs to be redone as well. I think the only good way to do it is the hard way. That means I have to create the textures from scratch again :(

Well, I guess this is what I've been saying: Do a lot, Fail a lot and Learn a lot :)

looking good so far. Much better than my poor excuse for a texture map. lol

Interesting, looking much better now ! ! !

damm good, if i only could model one of those :D

lookin' nice man.. :p

yeah k man. extra nicely done. now thats what im talking about. Bro.

UVs almost redone and new maps coming along...

Ummm...this is gonna take ages :)

Btw, does anyone know how could I simulate sub surface light scattering?

cool man.. really cool.. :p

There is a plug/shader for it at Pixho's site I think.

Yup.
