Im really close to being able to wrap up the modeling phase, just trying to get the last details in

still need to sculpt his weapon and the book

I will most likely end up with a shot similar to this

some details

Body details:

Started with his daggers

Nice work so far, loving all the little details you've put in really ties the whole character together.
atm the hand isnt looking as good as it could be there's a lot of soft dimple noise on the palm that doesnt quite belong there, and could just be me or the angle bu the fingers seem a little short and a bit skinny compared to the palm of the hand.
but still non the less killer work dude

JoseFuentes 2017-02-05 10:28:42 UTC #38

Thanks @alien_hand I agree the hand can use some work, I'm going to take another pass at the character again, soon... I need to finish modeling so i can move on to rendering.

I needed a break from staring at him, so I've been working on his props, here is his book, it will be attached to the back of the character

and i messed around with some map caps for fun

JoseFuentes 2017-02-05 11:15:29 UTC #39

A couple more

benzychan 2017-02-06 21:13:46 UTC #40

Loving those accessories!

JoseFuentes 2017-02-07 08:09:11 UTC #41

thanks @benzychan I had a blast sculpting them!

I went ahead and sculpted out his main weapon

I also went in and added a couple more details to the body where i felt it needed it. I think I'm going to call the modeling part done. I really need to start texturing and retopo'ing this week

JoseFuentes 2017-02-10 16:07:42 UTC #42

Been retopo'ing and Uv'ing this week, I wanted to be farther along. Hopefully i can put it a good amount of time in this weekend.

JoseFuentes 2017-02-13 14:38:58 UTC #43

Started surfacing yesterday, still a bit to go, hopefully have him completely surfaced by the end of the week

small update

continued to work on the clothing shaders

JoseFuentes 2017-02-15 08:58:31 UTC #45

I spent more time with my shaders, I feel pretty good with the clothes, and the leather. The gold is almost there, had some issues today exporting my maps from zbrush. So ill have to give it a go again tomorrow.

I need to work on the metal material a lot more, def not feeling how its looking thus far.

I have not started working on the skin yet, currently just a basic shader with displacements

JoseFuentes 2017-02-18 08:52:13 UTC #46

11 days to go,

so much left to do... I need to tone down the bump, losing some of the detail because of the bump. Will Prob switch out the floor too. Messing around with different lighting this time

alien_hand 2017-02-22 19:42:22 UTC #48

Nice work dude I can only comment on the pictures ans the marmoset view keeps crashing my phone.
Great work with all the nice little details you've modeled in painstakingly, it shows a great lover for what you're doing.
Awesome work with the book and other props they look really nice. Although the blade could do with a bit of sharpening.
The skin I dunno how far you're into surfacing but he needs some pigment varience it's looking a bit flat in colour add some blues in the veins some red for his capillaries

JoseFuentes 2017-02-23 05:20:21 UTC #49

thanks @alien_hand i agree the blade looks a bit blunt, if i have time ill rework it, but my main goal is to finish it in time. Trying to get as much done in the next couple days as i can!

JoseFuentes 2017-02-24 08:47:22 UTC #50

I've been spending my time trying to dial in my materials as best as possible

Keep it up! 4 Days left! I don't know if it was mentioned already but I would just reduce the specularity of the clothes a bit. Really shiny. Looking forward to seeing your finished piece!

JoseFuentes 2017-02-24 23:19:13 UTC #52

Thanks @briandolan89 I keep dialing down my spec on my clothing and leather but for some reason once its in the viewer, they come out super shinny... Ill take another stab at it tonight

Spent the morning trying to get my final camera angle locked down, and messed with some low rez comps

ysack 2017-02-27 15:45:54 UTC #53

I asked on another post I guess, but I was wondering if you can explain how to enbed the viewer man.

Thanks a bunch.

JoseFuentes 2017-02-27 22:57:13 UTC #54

just export it in marmoset and upload the file like you upload an image

ysack 2017-02-28 00:58:00 UTC #55

Thank you! Now I feel terrible for asking this kind of things. But thanks for the help buddy.
