I had some doubts in posting this, since everytime I post a thread I am managing emails rather than sculpting in those rare precious few hours,which ends in half finished models LOL.

There was a series on television once which I thoroughly enjoyed and unlike the other childhood series I used to like I can still watch this one ( still like it when Gohan stops whining and beats the <bliep> out of Cell user added image

)

I am attempting a hyperreal version of Gohan and in case anyone's interested this is the second evening I am working on this model( still having difficulty nailing that anatomy down-still hate doing hands and feet-) and I started from scratch in Maya.
Finally Autodesk came out with SP1 for Maya 2013 so the damn BT Unwrap plug in works again so Uv's are done as well.

Anywho, C&C is most welcome , just keep in mind that it is still very much a wip .

nice sculpt! Looks good and I like the shader, kind of looks like a bronze.

Hi Guys,
@Bullit: if you behave yourself I might do a piccolo as well user added image

@CTBram: thanks man, It's basically a standard textured metal zbrush material with a red tint, a yellow and a red light

Hi joverall22: thanks and I agree, they should've stopped after Cell games.

Did some refining today, had to redo the clothes ( I didn't extrude edges inward and Zbrush always got problems with edges ), but I am happy for the time being

I like the paint effect! Is that a 2D paint over or 3D with textures?

It's basically the texture but I tweaked the levels somewhat in PS.
So a bit of both, this isn't a final color, I will probably do this in Mari

Did some more tweaking on lookdev, the initial image didn't "pop"from the screen and felt a bit flat, so I did some tweaking in Nuke and PS and I think this is the look I am going for

Nice, I like the hair, is that with ZBrush hair? The skin is looking quite purple though.

Edit: Ah, fibremesh, I didn't read the previous posts. And the skin color looks a lot better a couple images up. I don't know if you're going to keep it like that.
