thanks, if this so, here the top stuff evolving, slowly:

different hdr-image-lightings.

next the helmet.
i'll finish all stuff roughly and then add up more details in textures. maybe add some more objects..
push everything as long as it's possible!

never played shadow of mordor.

Hey buddy, your modeling skills are amazing, but texturing/materials blow my socks away! So you are using Mari for painting and those renders are all arnold? You make me want to try arnold. How do you find it compared to VRay?

fantasymaster 2017-01-13 13:16:43 UTC #83

This looks great! So many details on that armor, you probably will need to kep the skin simple for a good contrast.

maxloegler 2017-01-13 13:51:31 UTC #84

thanks!
@n1agara yep, mari and arnold. i never used vray, arnold is quite simple. it's mostly for realistic stuff.
@fantasymaster that's true! looking forward to the skin-process, probably in 2-3 weeks! hopefully.

working on the helmet, the metal is giving me some headache! reworking, texturing, rendering, back and forth, all the time, but i think i'm getting somewhere!

you win! killing it man cant wait to see the skin

art1ficer 2017-01-16 10:32:03 UTC #86

This is like KFC-Orc: so good! That minor blobby details on his armor make him so cool. U rock man, waiting for skin.

shuma 2017-01-16 12:09:07 UTC #87

Great progress, love those renders!

maxloegler 2017-01-17 21:54:02 UTC #88

sry for the late reply and thanks! what's a kfc-orc?

a little update on the armor ...

i can't wait to see the skin either, haha, but still 42 days left .. so plenty of time

fantasymaster 2017-01-18 00:28:42 UTC #89

This dude looks so hungry. Time to feed him

crazymoon 2017-01-18 18:57:15 UTC #90

Man this thread is a feast to the eyes! Really stoked seeing the process here. Your metal is kicking ass so far! One thing popping out to me is the cleanness and whiteness of the skull on the chest. I just get the feel that the orc lives in a much rougher/dirtier environment than the skull suggests (maybe he just cleans it a lot) just my 2 cents, maybe you have a certain image in mind though, don't want to mess that up by any means

maxloegler 2017-01-18 19:20:54 UTC #91

haha, maybe he is a cooking chef, and used to cleaning a lot! ..
no you're totally right.
there are so many objects with all the layers and masks and channel-links and so i didn't made any dirt/blood layers yet! when i finish the base stuff i'll go on and add those things.
it takes so much time to organize this ... i'm not used to such projects.
thanks a lot!

grigouips 2017-01-18 23:26:47 UTC #92

Can't wait to see this guy finished. My fav entry at this moment. Already liked your old batman so much... Can't wait for the skin !!

RogerP 2017-01-18 23:33:38 UTC #93

Oh boy! I haven't been here in a while, this keeps looking better and better dude. drool

maxloegler 2017-01-18 23:45:22 UTC #94

@grigouips thank you, i'm feeling honored!!
you remember my batman .. haha .. i thought about finishing my unfinished characters after the challenge .. too many of them.

@RogerP nice, thanks for the drool idea!

finished the arm armor, on to the skirt. i'll have to add something to the skirt .. no clue what.

different hdris

maxloegler 2017-01-19 16:49:55 UTC #95

will add some leather straps to hold the chain mail and add the missing stitches for the skirt. still have to sculpt the leather of the skirt and break up the silhouettes.
i think i add a second layer of leather at the front of the skirt.

than i'll tweak the textures and materials till my fingers hurt!

did a 4k rendering to look, if my pc doesn't explode and lucky me, it works in a reasonable time. too bad, the shoes are sticking into the ground..

zinc 2017-01-19 21:20:43 UTC #96

Insane, ton of details.... are you crazy?

crazymoon 2017-01-19 21:38:50 UTC #97

Again man, very impressive material work. I love it! And yeah could be a chef too :3

engcenti 2017-01-19 23:43:40 UTC #98

This is insane <3

be-evrard 2017-01-20 01:33:41 UTC #99

it's insane max! It' could be super nice if can make a real time viewer with it to
Keep going! And thank's for you feed back.

maxloegler 2017-01-20 09:29:50 UTC #100

thanks people! motivation enough to push a little harder this time!
@be-evrard i don't think i put it all into a real time-viewer .. too much work :D, you're welcome!

i changed the skirt leather to an animal hide. this adds a little material and color variation. have to work on this material tough.

on top of this i painted some blood in PS, not much gore going on, but it could work. let's see what weapon he get's and were the blood would spit.

thanks again!!
